Manu Tenorio says what many think: "You can't take someone who is out of tune to Eurovision"

A few days before the start of Eurovision, the representation of Spain by Nebulossa with the song Zorra continues to generate controversy. While a large part of the public does like it, there are some who do not seem too happy with the group from Alicante. One of them is Manu Tenorio, who in February already made it clear that this proposal does not convince him.

The singer, when asked about Nebulossa, has been quite clear and has complained about Mery Bas's lack of vocal training: "With all due respect, but in a soccer team you cannot have soccer players who do not run, this "It's a song festival and you can't bring people who don't tune, that's not a matter of taste."

In line with this, the Sevillian has assured that in such an important musical event it is important to bring someone who has years of experience on stage and has a track record that proves that he will not fail: "I am more in the style of Pastora Soler, it is my taste and tastes like noses, everyone has their own.

The artist has also decided that his son will not participate as a spectator at the event this year. "My son is not going to see the festival this year at all, I don't think so," said Tenorio. The singer has suggested that a work with a protest message like that of Zorra cannot go to a festival that young children watch.

Manu Tenorio has also shared his perspective on music with a message. "I think it's a song that, if it's a protest, seems very good to me, but that an author's song should go to an author's song festival," he explained, reiterating that the format of the Eurovision Song Contest is not the most suitable for songs. with this profile.

Regarding his state of health, which has been diminished by lower back problems, Manu Tenorio has revealed that he continues to face difficulties. "I'm still not at 200%, I still have some pain, but hey, these types of events in which I can also sing some songs sitting down," he explained.

Finally, the Sevillian has reflected on how his son perceives his musical career and his fame. "He has a strange relationship with music, it is as if he sees me with a very long shadow, his father is dedicated to this and since he is old, he already understands that when he arrives at places people look at him, which is wonderful. He feels that he has an imprint and I calmly tell him that he doesn't have to be a singer, in fact, I don't intend to," he shared.
