"Moliendo Café" (Grinding Coffee) is a Venezuelan song that has become popular worldwide. It was written in 1958 by Hugo Blanco, but the authorship is disputed between him and his uncle José Manzo Perroni. Blanco's recording in 1961 became No. 1 in Argentina, and it has since been recorded by many singers, including Lucho Gatica, Celia Cruz, and Mario Suárez.
The song is a lament about a man named Zambo Manuel who is grinding coffee at night, unable to forget the love he has lost. The lyrics describe the beauty of the coffee plantations at night and the sound of the old mill grinding the coffee beans. Manuel's grief is so deep that it seems to merge with the sound of the mill, creating a haunting and melancholic atmosphere.
"Moliendo Café" is a classic example of Venezuelan folk music, and it is one of the most popular songs in the country. It is also widely known and loved in other parts of Latin America and has been translated into many languages.
The song has been used in a number of films and television shows, including the 2000 Mexican film "Amores Perros" and the 2017 American series "Narcos." It is also a popular song to dance to, and it is often played at weddings and other celebrations.
"Moliendo Café" is a beautiful and moving song that has resonated with people worldwide for over 60 years.
