"Y sólo tú" (Spanish pronunciation: [i ˈsolo ˈtu]; "And Only You") is a song recorded by Spanish singer Bacchelli, written by Amado Jaén. It is best known as the Spanish entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1981, held in Dublin.[1]
Background[]
The song is a moderately up-tempo number in which Bacchelli sings about his loved one, saying that he is happy only when both are together: ada es igual si tú no estás ("nothing is the same if you're not here").[2]
