"And long live Spain"... or Belgium... or Italy...
- In 1973, Manolo Escobar published the pasodoble Y viva España and has since become an unofficial hymn of Spain.
But the song is not Spanish. Eviva Spain was composed of two Belgians in 1971 (with the music of Leo Caerts and the words of Leo Rozenstraten) and praised Spain as a tourist destination. In addition, the work of the Belgians originated in an older song: Top Spain is the name that Italian fascists have made up in the years of the 1936 war in favor of the Falangists.
As if it were not enough, before Manolo Escobar took the Spanish version, the song was published in Dutch, German, Norwegian, French, Danish and Suomano.
