Review

Song summary:

The famous song "Bésame Mucho" was composed by the Mexican Consuelo Velázquez, in 1932, and premiered in 1941. Much is said about the origin of the melody, performed by various celebrities, such as Luis Miguel, The Beatles, and Elvis Presley, among others. It is widely considered one of the most popular songs of the 20th century and of all time. It is also one of the most important hymns in the history of Latin music.

The melody of Consuelo Velázquez dates from times of world conflict, since, in those years, the Second World War (1939-1945) broke out, so the composition meant, in that context, the reflection that love could not last forever. 

How: The romantic song is the best known and most performed Mexican melody in the world: Bésame Mucho" has been translated into 20 languages ​​and has around a thousand different versions

Where:

It has been used in numerous films, series, and albums, forming part of the world's artistic expression for years due to its ability to adapt to many musical styles.

When:

Bésame mucho is one of the most popular songs in the Latin American repertoire. It was composed by the Mexican Consuelo Velázquez in 1932, when she was 23 years old and the composer had not kissed anyone. Very soon it became one of the most covered songs in the world and was named the song of the 20th century.

Song emotion:

The melody could be a farewell or a reunion after a long time. This shows the fear of the departure of a loved one, in the context of war, since, in those years, many married couples were young, and they were, in the countries involved in the world conflict, those who went to battle.

"Besame mucho" expresses, rather, a desire for possession. It is an absolute act of seduction by the lyrical voice that, knowing the ephemeral nature of amorous-erotic time, wishes to capture it as an eternal image when the desolate hour comes, the probable separation, death itself.
