On Monday we learned that she had won “La Elección Interna 2017” ahead of Alvaro Soler, an official marker of how much Spanish fans want her to return to Eurovision.
And on Friday Spanish songstress Ruth Lorenzo gave us even more to cheer about as she revealed her charity single “Voces” and its accompanying lyric video.
Ruth appears to have absolutely nailed the timing, as the song shot straight to number one on the Spanish iTunes chart! This is how you slay…

Nodding to some of her past music videos, the lyric video shows a dancer performing solo in an abandoned warehouse.
The new single will also serve as the anthem of Por Ellas 2016, an inspiring charity project set up by the Cadena 100 Radio Station to raise funds for the Spanish Association Against Cancer.
Established three years ago, the event brings together some of Spain’s most beloved voices for a very admirable cause. Ruth specially composed her song for the event.
Naturally the song features themes of perseverance and standing against a common enemy — a message that will particularly resonate with those battling cancer.
As she sings: “Against the face of adversity, Only God knows how much I want to fight, and slowly the music starts beating in me.”
A delightful album will be made even more meaningful during the three-hour charity concert at Barclaycard Center in Madrid on Saturday, October 22.
As the fans call on Ruth to sing at Eurovision — and ever more loudly following her recent statement that she’s ready to go again — Ruth will be touring around Spain, with several concerts planned for Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, Valencia and Murcia.
What do you think of Ruth’s new song? Is it suitable for Eurovision? Let us know in the comments box below.
I THINK THAT THE SONG IS GREAT AND VERY AVAIBLE FOR MAKE AN ENGLISH VERSION TO COMPETE IN EUROVISION, IS LIKE AN ANTHEM OR PERFECT FOR A THEME SONG, BUT I BELIEVE THAT RUTH HAS MORE STRONGEST SONGS THAN “VOICES”, I’M SURE
Song is amazing! Ruth Lorenzo is such an accomplished artist – the whole package! I would be immensely happy if she returned for Spain this year!
Voces is an inspiring, admirable tune with an amazing meaning behind it.
Some of the people who read this blog need to remember that there is more to life and to the music industry than Eurovision!
Yes it might be bland but songs about illnesses tend to be not so upbeat
With all respect but…
Are you retarded???
It’s a song about cancer, of course is not gonna be a disco hit and of course is not a good option to eurovision
It is just a charity song about a horrible illness.
She’s just Ruth being Ruth. A fighter and a supporter. She deserves attention and I want to see her in Kiev!
All songs by this lady are the same, boring and really dated. Next.
Dudes, you seem to forget that the song is not made for Eurovision, but to show support to those that fight against cancer. May it be bottom? Okay, that’s fine. Now, try to understand the lyrics and the purpose of the song.
ok…. another 1995 song by screamy Ruth
It would be bottom for sure.. bland and boring.
This song is absolutely amazing, meaningful lyrics and awesome voices. Bravo and thank you Ruth for such proof of love¡¡
