This is a song that is often played at funerals ion the Mexican community. When Kobe Bryant passed away, many mariachi bands went to the Staples Center in LA and played this song in his honor.
The Mariachi at Staples is named Julian Torres. He is now the first Mariachi signed by Snoop Dogg's Deathrow Records. The album dropped earlier this year 2024 and Amor Eterno is on it.
He's got 1800+ songs he wrote and this one in particular he wrote for his mother ,and you're right this one is very special to us ,makes you cry even if you still have your mother alive. Hello from California!
Watching your reaction is so funny because like you can tell that you already KNOW the answer to your questions 😭 I’ve been on a Juan Gabriel reaction binge lately and I cry every single time because how can you not?? This is art, love & pain at its highest level 🤌
Absolutely loved your reaction. It makes me rediscovered the song. Btw, he wrote the song when he received the news of his mother passing away while he was in Acapulco….hence why he says “you are the saddest memory of Acapulco.” For years he could not perform the song….so he gave it to Rocio Dúrcal who also performs it at the Bellas Artes Institute. In her case she sings it about the loss of her son who drowned in Acapulco. I would love to see your reaction to her rendition of the song at Bella’s artes.
You couldn't of been more correct, this song is played at the final send off for all our amazing mothers in mexico. I dont think there's a single mexican that doesnt recognize this song and melts to it every time
He wrote this for his mother yes. Juan Gabriel is our divo our legend iconic. Listen to "ya lo sé que tú te vas" "de mi enamórate" " te lo pido por favor" all in this concert in bellas artes ! Thank you !
You should look up his story. If you think this is sad you’ll ball at his life. As a gay man in Latin America, he endured a lot of discrimination. Glad that he is getting recognized for how talented he is!
Nos complase que te guste estas canciones que fueron escritas con el corazón, por tan grande artista, compositor, cantante de tantos que tiene latinoamerica, muy hermosos tus comentarios
The best detailed reaction, and you catched the concept about the audience sounding like maternal instinct women being reciprocated singing the chorus. Soooo beautiful, that is what life is. Nice you actually take care of putting cc to understand lyrics
Bro, crying is never bad, because it comes from the heart, it is braver than what you yourself believe, and for us Mexicans, what comes from the heart is never bad, when it does no harm to anyone.
Some context.. he was abandoned by his mom at 3 yr at an orphanage and then he found her again later in life.. this song is for her.. also at the end of the song when the violins take over is meant to sound like lullabies moms sing for their children
At a very young age, he knew the true meaning of abandonment… he said once in an interview… His first memory in life was that of his mother leaving him at an orphanage… the youngest of 10… He poured his whole heart into this song… I’ve seen the toughest of men break down listening to this song… Great Video
I truly and honestly believe that the only other people in this world who can really feel this song and it’s Spirit are black Americans. I know how y’all black people love your moms too.
Juan Gabriel is an icon in the Spanish speaking community especially in the Mexican community. He has so many songs that are iconic and his song lyrics are heartfelt and meaningful. Other ones I recommend you critique are: "Hasta que ti conoci" and "Querida." Enjoy!
He sang throughout Mexico Palenques (cock fights) main singer I really recommend all his last 3 albums Juan Gabriel Duo’s nobody has posted those song videos With another singer
This is not even his most heart wrenching song. Atleast logically we know that we as children who love our mothers/parental figure we will go through this and try to prepare ourselves for it or just death in general but "Abrazame muy fuerte"? That is a whole 'nother beast.
I am not sure if it is played un funerals here un México but it is played un mothers day, in all parties where You are very drunk ando evverybody cries Even You hacent lost your mothers yet. Higly recomend "abrazame muy fuerte" (en bellas artes) these are great shows becaused they we're aniversaries.
Yes my brother, he 've wrote this Amor Eterno song dedicaded to his mother, and this is an icon song that is played over and over on funerals and also in the day of desth wich is in Novenber 2nd here in México , you can see Mariachis or some bands at the cenentaries singing this song at they 're loved ones grave, Day of Desth is a prehispanic cultural tradition which have the origin since thousands yesrs ago. This is one of many cobcerts gave the Maestro Juan Gabriel at El Palacio De Bellas Artes which Is located in downtown zone of México city. i think this was his first concert there, and he gave many concerts later on thru the yesrs Please react over to ABRAZAME MUY FUERTE at El Palacio De Bellas Artes , as far as I know this video abrazame muy fuerte at El Palacio De Bellas Artes have over 600 millons views I do already subscribed my brother.
