My late wife was from Yucatan, and she introduced me to Jose Jose. I love Latin music, but this one hits me every time. It is like he is describing my sad feelings about the loss of my wife almost 3 years ago. If you want to see a grown man cry, play this song.
The funny thing is that nobody knows or talks about the first places, and the one that didn't win recorded more than 100 albums and has sold 250 million copies.
Even more surprising is that his place was third! the jury wanted to justify itself by arguing that it was a song contest and not interpretations or performers. Well, the songs that were in first and second never transcended compared to this one. Somehow justice was served. Greetings.
@@Downey-2000Where do you invent so much from?!! This one did not win (3th) and the contest was in Mexico at the "Teatro Ferrocarrilero" in 1970. (blessed google) Greetings.
This was the first time anyone had heard the song. And these werent his fans. This was a song competition and he was hardly known at all in Mexico yet. A star was born that night.
@@normanselva6397 The first place was for the Brazillian singer Cláudya with a song called "Canção de amor e paz". The 2th place was for Mirla Castellanos, a Venezuelan singer who performed the song "Con los brazos cruzados". José José took third place, despite his great performance. Of course, people in the audience were so pissed off, but the contest was not for the best performance, but for the best composition. The thing is no one remembers the other songs or singers that won over El Príncipe.
José José went from zero to hero overnight because of this. Most of this audience were VIPs in Latin American music, be it producers, singers, musicians, composers, you name it. Nobody knew José José, and while he didn't win this contest (he ended up 3rd place) the very next morning he became one of our most beloved singers for the decades to come.
just add that this is recorded live, mono analog sound, without digital corrector or autotunes... also he never had formal music studies... a phenomenon
One of the greatest voices in Mexico history, son of an Operatic Tenor and a classic pianist. You wont believe he finished 3rd place on this festival, and funny part is nobody remember 1rst or 2nd place but him. He also was admired by Frank Sinatra, he was invited by Frank to record a duet but due to record contract he could not accept (shame on that)
Lyrics and (semi-pro) translation Qué triste fue decirnos adiós How sad it was to say goodbye Cuando nos adorábamos más When we loved each other the most Hasta la golondrina emigró Even the swallow left (migrated, as animals do, but it's a double entendre: we left, the bird left) Presagiando el final Foretelling the end Qué triste luce todo sin ti How sad looks everything without you Los mares de las playas se van The seas are abandoning the beaches Se tiñen los colores de gris Colors are paintes grey (more like, In gray, painted are the colors, using an unusual syntaxis that, in Spanish, makes common phrases more poetic, kind of Paradise Lost instead of Lost Paradise) Hoy todo es soledad Today everything is loneliness No sé si vuelva a verte después I don't know if I will see you later, again No sé qué de mi vida será I don't know what will become of my life Sin el lucero azul de tú ser Without the blue star that you are/Without you, my blue star Que no me alumbra ya That no longer lights me (as in, light my way) Hoy quiero saborear mi dolor I want to savor/taste my pain today No pido compasión ni piedad I don't ask for sympathy nor pity La historia de este amor se escribió This love's story was written Para la eternidad For all eternity Qué triste todos dicen que soy How sad (a person) everyone say I am Que siempre estoy hablando de ti That I am always talking of you No saben que pensando en tu amor, en tu amor The don't know that thinking of your love, of your love He podido ayudarme a vivir I've been able to help me (to) live He podido ayudarme a vivir I've been able to help me (to) live Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Hoy quiero saborear mi dolor I want to savor/taste my pain today No pido compasión ni piedad I don't ask for sympathy nor pity La historia de este amor se escribió This love's story was written Para la eternidad For all eternity Qué triste todos dicen que soy How sad (a person) everyone say I am Que siempre estoy hablando de ti That I am always talking of you No saben que pensando en tu amor, en tu amor The don't know that thinking of your love, of your love He podido ayudarme a vivir I've been able to help me (to) live He podido ayudarme a vivir I've been able to help me (to) live He podido ayudarme a vivir I've been able to help me (to) live
This is amazing. Being a spanish/english speaker, I couldn't have translated it better, I understand the small nuances in spanish, but I'd never be able to express them the same way in english as you do. Every translation is spot on, in meaning and in feeliing.
He was third place. Even the 1st and 2nd place winners complained and the festival was not ever repeated. Yet José became a Latin American idol for over 40 years.
Estoy llorando de la emoción ver cómo una persona tan preparada como tú de a conocer al cantante más importante de latino America y el mundo gracias gracias te amo
Wow, never thought Nina would react to someone from my country. I'm glad you did this, give your expertise with José José, really have no words to appreciate this review. And yeah, the song pretty much, in my opinion, reflects the mexican intensity. We are just so intense and dramatic, just kike this song 😂 Thank you Nina!!!
as a Mexican I can tell you that NO MATTER your musical prefrences, once people at a party are drunk everyone WILL sing along to: Jose Jose, Vicente Fernandez, Alejandro Fernandez, Joan Sebastian... WITHOUT EXCEPTION...

Amazing reaction! Please consider reacting to Sin Bandera. It's a Mexican - Argentian duo. The best song is "Entra en mi vida", acustic version (unplugged). Hugs from Mexico!
Hola Te pongo al día con aJosé José él ya falleció a los 71 años en 2019 tuvo muchas enfermedades y tenía alcoholismo y drogadicción ( en parte ) se perdió su voz se le volvió muy distinta a como la oyes en este vídeo el cual fue en su presentación en el segundo festival de la canción latina en 1970 y tenía 22 años Muchos ignorantemente dicen que perdió la voz por que se hizo " viejito " Pero no eso ocurrió por que el se descuidada mucho además de una pulmonía que tuvo y cantaba mucho y su cuerdas vocales pues ya estaban mal . Veo que mucha gente sólo recomienda esta presentación pero José José tiene más y muy lindas presentaciones
You picked one of the best voices in Mexico in recent history. Mexico is loaded with talent that is yet to be discovered by the rest of the world. My favorite genre is rancheras and Vicente is the king of rancheras. Jose Jose is by far the best in classical singing. Thank you for reviewing Jose Jose.
that artist breathes???......that artist has dynamics/voices/tuning/power/timbre...all exceptional among other things.....very interesting artist/performance
Also, Nina, the sound you classify as castanets are actually a percussion instrument called claves, consisting of a pair of short, wooden sticks about 8-10 inches long and about 1 inch in diameter. Although traditionally made of wood, such as rosewood or ebony, many modern claves are made of fiberglass or plastic. When struck, they produce a bright, penetrating clicking noise. They are used extensively in Afro-Cuban music, traditional music such as the son and guaguancó, and more recently, cumbia, merengue and salsa.
I’ve seen you do Christina’s reaction and your amazing! I’m glad you doing one pf the biggest of my country, thank you Nina. Hope you do (Luis Miguel & Juan Gabriel). You won’t regret it 😊
Thank you for reacting to this … I just subscribed. His voice was amazing. No doubt one of the best performers of all time in any language. I do have to say that if you understood the lyrics, you would see that it goes hand in hand with the emotion with which he interprets this wonderful song. Hello from Denver CO! ❤
If I remember correctly, that song launched him to the top as a singer. He didn’t win that night but he sure went all the way to the top. I recall learning to sing the song as a kid and I remember my mom telling me where to breathe lol I can’t sing that song anymore but I sure love listening to it, thank you
Great song from 1970. The song ended 3rd place on that festival, but what it makes it even better is that after so many years, we now know, the song talks about a heartbreaking situation, after he lost his love...and coincidentally the singer (Jose-Jose) broke up with his girlfriend a few days before this show...but what he didn't know, was that his ex girlfriend was in the audience while he was performing. 😊
That outro was totally improvised by the musicians that were so excited and carried away with the momentum José José built with his performance, they just couldn't stop playing. They were just as ecstatic as the crowd. It must have been an amazing collective experience, his.felling was that contagious. Just amazing ❤
The Sad One (Roberto Cantoral) How sad it was to say goodbye When we loved each other the most Even the swallow emigrated Foreboding the end How sad it all looks without you The seas leave the beaches Colors are dyed gray Today it's all loneliness I don't know if I'll see you again afterwards I don't know what will become of my life Without the blue star of your being shining upon me anymore Today I want to relish my pain I ask neither for pity nor mercy The story of this love was written for the eternity How sad all say I am That I'm always talking about you They don't know that thinking of your love of your love I've been able to help myself go on living La Nave del Olvido (The Ship of Oblivion) is another great song by José José.
At the end of singing that song he said Nobody will ever sing that song like I did tonight...not even me. Unfortunately they had already decided somebody else was going to "win" this competition. It was viña del mar, not Mexico
You really should've looked for the translation of the lyrics, just so you could also have an idea of how incredibly emotional the whole thing is. A master piece in my opinion.
El otti 1970. They show two of the judges. Lady with long hair. And the man with his mouth open. They were speechless. But the finalist was already set to win. Or bought. Now there was a great redo/rendition done by mark anthony. The guy who was married to j-lo. He did a fantastic job he introduce some electric guitar to it. His voice had same range and duration. Worth listening to!!
THE SAD. How sad it was to say goodbye to us when we loved each the most Even the swallow emigrated foreshadowing the end How sad everything looks without you The seas of the beaches go away Colors are dyed gray Today everything is loneliness I don't know if I'll see you again later I don't know what of my life will be Without the bright star of your being That doesn't bright me up anymore Today, I want to taste my pain I do not ask for compassion or pity The history of this love was written For eternity How sad everyone says I am That I'm always talking about you They don't know that thinking about your love, about your love I have been able to help myself to live I have been able to help myself to live Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Today I want to taste my pain I do not ask for compassion or pity The history of this love was written For eternity How sad everyone says I am That I'm always talking about you They don't know that thinking about your love, about your love I have been able to help myself to live I have been able to help myself to live I have been able to help myself to live
I really love how you appreciated this song so much nostalgia from my childhood and masterpiece from loved Singer José José. Very emotional. If you could understand the words. ❤
Interesting analysis of this amazing singer I've just discovered. I've always been frustrated that I cannot sing which is why I focus on Songwriting then have them recorded by session singers..I did sing a song of mine called " Havana Moon " .
Please react to Lola Beltrán singing "Paloma Negra" where she is wearing a black dress And also Natalia Jiménez ft Lila Downs singing "La cigarra" The vocals are great
I know that you analyzed the tones and the way he sings, which is very good, but it is necessary to understand the lyrics of the song to know that it is a work of art that was composed so much to reach that emotion that the song wants for its lyrics. and for their different tones of voice
Absolutely, i had the english translation up before watching so i could see what the lyrics meant but next time I will make sure to talk about them on screen :) Thanks for watching!
Actually let me correct you. It didn’t win. That was part of the controversy. It was the audience favorite but he didn’t win. In the end, Jose Jose career was catapulted at that moment and he went on to become a legend
This festival and the other Latino music competition, el OTI, are often compared to Eurovision in that they are often accused of being rigged for a specific contestant. The fact that Jose Jose didn't win is what propelled him to fame as people saw through the politics of the contest and recognized his authentic talent. It was sad to see him lose his voice towards the end of his life from years of alcohol and drug abuse.

@ninaschofield He was known as "The Prince of Song" in Mexico. That was a performance from very early in his career. He went on to rule the world of Spanish romance with ballad after ballad. He's a legend in Mexico, very much like an Elvis. A once in a lifetime voice. You should listen to his mid-career music, and his rendition of My Way (look for "A mi manera") and New York New York. In the late 1980s, when I went on a first date with my now wife of 35 years, she got in the car and handed me a cassette to play while we drove. It was Jose Jose. My goodness! She was in the mood for romance, because those songs and that voice set the mood for our relationship for the next 20 years! WOW!! Thank you for reviewing Jose Jose, but without the lyrics and romance behind the vocal mastery, I imagine you're not getting the FULL EFFECT of this man's impact! Blessings and peace!

Siento mucho tu pérdida. Espero que estés bien.
Un abrazo muy grande!
May she rest in peace in paradise.
Bro she had good taste on music just like you gold on to that. That's how you remember her.
Crazy thing is he didn’t even win the contest.
I think he did . All Spanish speaking countries send one of their best and Mexico sent this kid and he won . The tournament was in Chile that year .
He didn't win, but the contest was not about singing ability, but song composition and lyrics
The funny thing is that nobody knows or talks about the first places, and the one that didn't win recorded more than 100 albums and has sold 250 million copies.

54 I still listen to him
The same happened 3 years later at the Eurovision Song Contest: 'Eres Tu' became a worldwide hit, the 'winner' of the event is long forgotten.
In Mexico, José José had the title "prince of the sing" because he was the best singer of Mexico. I love all his songs.
The prince of song you are right carnal 👍👍👍
José José el príncipe de la canción. El mejor. Siempre lo recordaremos. Saludos desde México 🙏 🇲🇽 🎶🎤👏😢👍...
Estoy llorando de la emoción ver cómo una persona tan preparada como tú de a conocer al cantante más importante de latino America y el mundo gracias gracias te amo

Please don't do that... it is coming heaven to the hell....
I’ve seen you do Christina’s reaction and your amazing! I’m glad you doing one pf the biggest of my country, thank you Nina. Hope you do (Luis Miguel & Juan Gabriel). You won’t regret it 😊

Great song from 1970. The song ended 3rd place on that festival, but what it makes it even better is that after so many years, we now know, the song talks about a heartbreaking situation, after he lost his love...and coincidentally the singer (Jose-Jose) broke up with his girlfriend a few days before this show...but what he didn't know, was that his ex girlfriend was in the audience while he was performing. 😊
the song writer, Roberto Cantoral, wrote the song during the flight that took him to his mothers funeral, that why it is so hearth breaking.
Wow tremendo,,, veo que apreciaste mucho la orquesta fue bello como acompañó al gran Jose José
That outro was totally improvised by the musicians that were so excited and carried away with the momentum José José built with his performance, they just couldn't stop playing. They were just as ecstatic as the crowd. It must have been an amazing collective experience, his.felling was that contagious. Just amazing ❤
Excelente reacción bella y alegre
best observing observation i've observed
He came in 3rd place in the contest. No one remember the first and second place.
He just came, destroyed everything and left.
The Sad One
(Roberto Cantoral)
How sad it was to say goodbye
When we loved each other the most
Even the swallow emigrated
Foreboding the end
How sad it all looks without you
The seas leave the beaches
Colors are dyed gray
Today it's all loneliness
I don't know if I'll see you again afterwards
I don't know what will become of my life
Without the blue star of your being
shining upon me anymore
Today I want to relish my pain
I ask neither for pity nor mercy
The story of this love was written
for the eternity
How sad all say I am
That I'm always talking about you
They don't know that thinking of your love
of your love
I've been able to help myself
go on living
La Nave del Olvido (The Ship of Oblivion) is another great song by José José.
When I hear this guy I get goosebumps, I grew up listening to him, Amaizing
At the end of singing that song he said
Nobody will ever sing that song like I did tonight...not even me. Unfortunately they had already decided somebody else was going to "win" this competition. It was viña del mar, not Mexico
You really should've looked for the translation of the lyrics, just so you could also have an idea of how incredibly emotional the whole thing is. A master piece in my opinion.
A legend. Great reaction. Luis Miguel is another legend. He's still with us. La Incondicional is an amazing performance of his.
Dubbed "The Prince of Song"
The Prince Of The Song was called our loving and unforgotable greatest Maestro José José RIP.
This song ended on 3º place of this festival and nobody remembers the first and second places today, only this song
El otti 1970.

Thank you for your reaction to this song, I hope you keep discovering more from Jose Jose. greetings from mexico City.
Interesting analysis of this amazing singer I've just discovered. I've always been frustrated that I cannot sing which is why I focus on Songwriting then have them recorded by session singers..I did sing a song of mine called " Havana Moon " .
Beautiful reaction of yours. It was both technical and emotional, as well.
I met him back in 2011 in my hometown
Juan Gabriel & José José the very best of Mexico for the world 🌍🌍🌎🌎❤❤❤
Please react to Lola Beltrán singing "Paloma Negra" where she is wearing a black dress
And also Natalia Jiménez ft Lila Downs singing "La cigarra"
The vocals are great
Reacciona a José José
Con la canción " polvo enamorado"
❤❤
Nina: eres encantadora, gracias.
It's a MASTERPIECE!!!!
I know that you analyzed the tones and the way he sings, which is very good, but it is necessary to understand the lyrics of the song to know that it is a work of art that was composed so much to reach that emotion that the song wants for its lyrics. and for their different tones of voice
Absolutely, i had the english translation up before watching so i could see what the lyrics meant but next time I will make sure to talk about them on screen :) Thanks for watching!
Hermosa canción
Like many others have said 😂 Juan Gabriel - Hasta que te Conci and Amor Eterno live. Mind blowing performance. Good luck on your channel.
That's the song that won that festival actually
Actually let me correct you. It didn’t win. That was part of the controversy. It was the audience favorite but he didn’t win. In the end, Jose Jose career was catapulted at that moment and he went on to become a legend
The father of the Mexican singer whose stage name was "José José" was an opera singer and his mother was a pianist and piano teacher.
Thats amazing! Jose Jose is realy great
Por favor reacciona a mas canciones de Jose Jose🤠
You should react to Luis Miguel - Contigo a la Distancia live

I GET SO MAD WHEN I SEE PEOPLE COMPARING HIM TO OTHERS , PEOPLE CANT SEE THE DIFERENCE BETWEEN TALENT AND BE GIFTED .
This festival and the other Latino music competition, el OTI, are often compared to Eurovision in that they are often accused of being rigged for a specific contestant. The fact that Jose Jose didn't win is what propelled him to fame as people saw through the politics of the contest and recognized his authentic talent. It was sad to see him lose his voice towards the end of his life from years of alcohol and drug abuse.

@ninaschofield He was known as "The Prince of Song" in Mexico. That was a performance from very early in his career. He went on to rule the world of Spanish romance with ballad after ballad. He's a legend in Mexico, very much like an Elvis. A once in a lifetime voice. You should listen to his mid-career music, and his rendition of My Way (look for "A mi manera") and New York New York.
In the late 1980s, when I went on a first date with my now wife of 35 years, she got in the car and handed me a cassette to play while we drove. It was Jose Jose. My goodness! She was in the mood for romance, because those songs and that voice set the mood for our relationship for the next 20 years! WOW!!
Thank you for reviewing Jose Jose, but without the lyrics and romance behind the vocal mastery, I imagine you're not getting the FULL EFFECT of this man's impact!
Blessings and peace!
Great reacction...🎉
