It is a very up-tempo number, sung from the perspective of a woman telling her lover about the positive changes he has had on her, specifically that she now lives her life singing.

[2] On 20–22 February 1969, "Vivo cantando" performed by both Salomé and Ana Kiro [es] competed in the first edition of the Festival de la Canción Española, the national final organized by Televisión Española (TVE) to select the song Salomé –who had already been internally selected– would perform in the 14th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest.

[3] In addition to the Spanish language original version, Salomé recorded the song in another five languages to promote the candidacy: in Catalan as "Canto i vull viure", in Basque as "Kantari bizi naiz", in English as "The Feeling of Love", in French as "Alors je chante", and in Italian as "Vivo cantando".

[4] On 29 March 1969, the Eurovision Song Contest was held at the Teatro Real in Madrid hosted by TVE, and broadcast live throughout the continent.

Two memorable aspects of Salomé's performance were her costume –a blue pantsuit designed by Manuel Pertegaz covered in long strands of porcelain resembling beads that weighed 14 kg (31 lb)–, and the fact that the singer chose to dance on the spot during certain parts of the song.
