Tourada


 

Tourada is the name of a song, sung by Fernando Tordo as Portugal's entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1973 in Luxembourg. The song was a beautiful metaphor that heavily criticised the Estado Novo, the authoritarian regime that then ruled Portugal. Just one year later, Portugal's 1974 Eurovision entry E depois do adeus was played on the radio as a secret signal for left-wing elements in the military to move against the regime, heralding the Carnation Revolution.
