Hello. About this song, We, Hispanic, Latin People, call it "The heartache of José José's "Almohada" Pillow". The meaning of this song is not about the rhythm or his voice tone, it is about lyric. José José's "Almohada" is a poignant ballad that delves into the depths of love and loss. The song is a classic example of the emotional intensity that characterizes much of the music of José José, often referred to as "El Príncipe de la Canción" (The Prince of Song). His ability to convey deep feelings of anguish and longing through his powerful voice has made him an iconic figure in Latin American music. The lyrics reflect the deep sadness and longing of a man who still lives in the memory of a love he considers unique and irreplaceable. The pillow symbolizes the only witness of his pain and the silent companion during sleepless nights and longing. The lyrics of "Almohada" speak of a love that is irreplaceable, unique and impossible to find again. The singer describes a deep connection with his beloved, who now exists only in his memories and as a silent presence in his bed at night. The repeated act of coming home "drunk with anguish" and seeking solace in the physical presence of his beloved, only to find a pillow, underscores the deep sense of emptiness and longing for a love that is no longer there. The pillow becomes a metaphor for the lover, absorbing tears and providing cold comfort in the absence of the person it represents. Lyrics translated: Like our love ....There is just none like ours... The most one is search for....The most could hides... You sleep with me all nights.. you stay quiet, no reproaches... That's why I love you, that's why I adore you You are in my life all my treasure
Sometimes when I come home.....drunk of angst I kiss you full and caress melancholy But you fall asleep... and you don't feel a caress...! I hold you onto my chest... and I sleep with you tightly..! But later when I'm awake... you are not with me.. it's just.. my pillow...!
Sometimes I see-you...... so quiet and absent... I suffer in silence... like many other people... I want to scream aloud to you.... come back to me That if I still alive ..... it's just to love you...” But everything fades .... and the sufferings... Like the words are carried away by the wind..
That's when I come home.....drunk of angst I kiss you full and caress melancholy But you fall asleep... and you don't feel a caress...! I hold you onto my chest... and I sleep with you tightly..! But later when I'm awake... you are not with me.. it's just.. my pillow...!
Letra Español: Amor como el nuestro No hay dos en la vida Por más que se busque Por más que se esconda Tú duermes conmigo Toditas las noches Te quedas callada Sin ningún reproche Por eso te quiero Por eso te adoro Eres en mi vida Todo mi tesoro A veces regreso borracho de angustia Te lleno de besos y caricias mustias Pero estás dormida, no sientes caricias Te abrazo a mi pecho, me duermo contigo Mas luego despierto, tú no estás conmigo Solo está mi almohada A veces te miro Callada y ausente Y sufro en silencio Como tanta gente Quisiera gritarte Que vuelvas conmigo Que si aún estoy vivo Solo es para amarte Pero todo pasa Y a los sufrimientos Como a las palabras Se las lleva el viento Por eso regreso borracho de angustia Te lleno de besos y caricias mustias Pero estás dormida, no sientes caricias Te abrazo a mi pecho, me duermo contigo Mas luego despierto, tú no estás conmigo Solo está mi almohada
Even during his vocal decline, he was magnificent. At the time of this performance (c.1985), José José had been singing for 15 years (since 1970) virtually with only one lung as his other lung had been terribly damaged after having fallen asleep, left drunk by his "friends" on a cold beach... He almost died. 😢
An exciting story about the composer of this song. Look it up. Adan Torres from Nicaragua. A simple man that got rich. Still receiving royalties. I love Jose Jose. Look up how Frank Sinatra wanted to sing with him.
Hola Nina! Hello Nina, Yes, addressing your request, Jose Jose is saying, he is going to sing a song that you the public made it a hit a few years back and gives the title of the song, Almoada (pillow). a song fact, this was written by a Nicaraguan writer, Adam Torres. Jose Jose was called The Son's prince ,because of his voice.
@@happyboy8658 pues si y la mayoría de las reacciones son a la canción el TRISTE 1970 en vivo teatro ferrocarrilero segundo festival de la canción latina como si creyeran que fue la unica canción que canto bien
Great reaction video! If you could another reaction video for Raphael, Me estoy quedando solo (sin microfono). Raphael sings a portion of this song without a microphone. Juan Gabriel, ya lo se que tu te vas - concierto en el paso 1986. This one of the best performances by Juan Gabriel.
Another Jose Jose song ey? He has that effect on people. Although the lyrics are in Spanish, you both speak music. I like how technical you get. I am absolutely pleased you're taking more interest. I would like for you to continue down the rabbit hole of Mexican music. ruclips.net/video/ga5Bo4YdgH4/видео.htmlfeature=shared

Предлагаю посмотреть и сделать реакцию на певицу с трудно произносимым для иностранцев именем: Екатерина Шелехова. Основные жанры (на сколько я понял по манере ее исполнения) это романсы и народные песни. Переводы текстов песен Вы без труда найдете в Интернете. Строка для поиска (на Ютубе) нужного клипа: Ekaterina Shelehova - Beyond the Quiet River (Studio Version). Очень надеюсь что Вам понравится и Вы откроете для себя еще одно яркое имя!!!
He said something like, you made this song an outstanding success...in the intro. Nina, I discovered another Spanish singer of that era, Raphael. If you do for your own benefit listen to his version of Ave Maria. He would be the best Spanish singer I have heard
Jose Jose, HUM. He supposedly lost his diafragma 2 years after El Triste in 1970. And no many years after that he lost the functionality of one lung. And if true how he did it?
Drug abuse and alcolism made him lose a lot of his voice after el triste but managed to keep most of incredible voice for a while but it declined after his 50s
Another great performance! Watch my first ever listen of José José with El Triste en vivo here: ruclips.net/video/kKr_sfjD-TQ/видео.html
He was called the prince of the romantic song in the 80s❤❤

Letra Español:
Amor como el nuestro
No hay dos en la vida
Por más que se busque
Por más que se esconda
Tú duermes conmigo
Toditas las noches
Te quedas callada
Sin ningún reproche
Por eso te quiero
Por eso te adoro
Eres en mi vida
Todo mi tesoro
A veces regreso borracho de angustia
Te lleno de besos y caricias mustias
Pero estás dormida, no sientes caricias
Te abrazo a mi pecho, me duermo contigo
Mas luego despierto, tú no estás conmigo
Solo está mi almohada
A veces te miro
Callada y ausente
Y sufro en silencio
Como tanta gente
Quisiera gritarte
Que vuelvas conmigo
Que si aún estoy vivo
Solo es para amarte
Pero todo pasa
Y a los sufrimientos
Como a las palabras
Se las lleva el viento
Por eso regreso borracho de angustia
Te lleno de besos y caricias mustias
Pero estás dormida, no sientes caricias
Te abrazo a mi pecho, me duermo contigo
Mas luego despierto, tú no estás conmigo
Solo está mi almohada
Tu traducción de la letra es un poco robótica y literal. Pero por lo demás da a entender la idea

I really prefer when musicians react or analyze songs over vocal coaches. They're always bringing up how the music is as important as the vocals.
Maravilloso análisis, saludos desde México 🇲🇽👋👍, escucha también la versión de estudio, más de José José por favor
Makes me cry EVERY single time...🥺
An exciting story about the composer of this song. Look it up. Adan Torres from Nicaragua. A simple man that got rich. Still receiving royalties. I love Jose Jose. Look up how Frank Sinatra wanted to sing with him.
Wow, I did not know Adan was from NIcaragua.

At the beginning he says something like “now I’m interpreting a song you all made into a hit. This is Almohada”
Thank you my dear ❤. Be blessed 🙏.

Спасибо за рекомендацию, привет из Мехико.
I always cry with Jose Jose because he lost his voice 😢
Oh he was the máster, the best balad singer ever.
He said something like, you made this song an outstanding success...in the intro. Nina, I discovered another Spanish singer of that era, Raphael. If you do for your own benefit listen to his version of Ave Maria. He would be the best Spanish singer I have heard
