In 1981, he was chosen internally by broadcaster TVE as the Spanish representative for the 26th Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Y sólo tú" ("And Only You"). The contest was held on 4 April in Dublin, where "Y sólo tú" could only manage 14th place of the 20 entries. Bacchelli was unable to capitalise on his Eurovision appearance; he released a second album, also titled Y sólo tú, but this failed to sell and shortly thereafter he retired from the music industry.
