In his youth, he alternated between studying law at the CEU San Pablo University in Madrid, and playing professional football. He used to be a goalkeeper for Real Madrid Castilla in the Segunda Division. However, his future in professional football ended when a serious car accident left him unable to walk for two years, as his injuries had smashed his lower spine and severely weakened his legs.

His entry was the song “La vida sigue igual” (“Life Goes On the Same”. Following his win, he was signed to Discos Columbia, the Spanish branch of Columbia Records, and quickly released his debut album “Yo Canto” (“I Sing”) in 1969.
