Paloma San Basilio

Paloma San Basilio (born November 22, 1950 in Madrid, Spain) is a Latin Grammy Award-winning Spanish singer.

She starred in the Spanish language premiere production of Andrew Lloyd Weber's Evita at Teatro Monumental in Madrid. The show later transferred to Barcelona and certain cities in Latin America. She represented Spain at the Eurovision Song Contest 1985 in Gothenburg, Sweden, with the sad ballad La fiesta terminó (The party ended), and finished 14th. She also starred in highly acclaimed Madrid revivals of "Man of La Mancha" and "My Fair Lady," and the Madrid production of "Victor/Victoria." In 2006, the Latin Grammy Award Society gave San Basilio the Latin Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award based on her work in Spanish-language music.

She recorded several tracks with Plácido Domingo and a particularly notable duet version of 'Soledad' by Emilio Jose.
