Frank sinatra was so impressed that he immediately wanted to do a duo with him, shit happened between their record labels and it couldn't be done, so Frank went to Tijuana just so he could attend a live performance of him, went backstage and talked to him. Thats how special, José José was.
He was Frank Sinatra's favorite singer, when he heard it the first time he said: "When this boy breathes." Every year I saw him singing in Las Vegas. Frank described him as the best singer he had ever heard.
Please listen "Tu Primera Vez" with José José, is from another Mexican singer-songwriter José María Napoleon, it's an amazing interpretation, especially the breathing part, thanks...
vinyls ?! what a gift ! im 23 grew up in LA so this wasn’t my first choice as a teen, but now that i’m a little wiser I can honestly say what a gift your father gave you!
The lyrics for you: The Sad Man How sad it was to say goodbye, When we adored each other so much, Even the swallow migrated Foreshadowing the end. How sad everything is without you, The seas of the beaches are gone, All colours turn dyed in gray, Everything is loneliness now. I don't know If I'll see you once again, I don't know what will become of my life without the blue star of your being no longer sheding light on me. Today I want to taste out my pain, I'm not asking for compassion nor mercy This love story was written to be eternal "What a sad man", everyone says I am, That I'm always talking about you They don't know that by thinking of your love, of your love, I've been able to help myself carry on living. Today I want to taste out my pain, I'm not asking for compassion nor mercy This love story was written to be eternal "What a sad man", everyone says I am, That I'm always talking about you They don't know that by thinking of your love, of your love, I've been able to help myself carry on living
Gracias! Espero que con esta excelente traducción, la gente de habla inglesa entienda porqué es tan difícil interpretar esta canción, además del precedente que dejó el príncipe.
You are a hero, thanks, it's a fantastic traduction, this is so good for English People. I'm Mexican and I love José José. He'll always live in our heart. :')
The translation is literal, it is not an attempt to make it sound good in English... very well done.. I’d only change “this love story was written to be eternal”. To “the story of this love was written for eternity”. My 2 cents..
No mamen, si era "José" cantaba en español y compartió la cultura legada por la cultura latina...la verdad se ven pendejos con tanto chovinismo absurdo.
Im from mexico and i legitely loved this reaction, i really wished all the people getting chills from his voice could actually understand the letter its actually deeper than what y’all think
Tbh, most times translations don't do songs justice. It's not just the songs but only by knowing the direct translation and cultural significance accompanied by knowing at the right time why some particular words, syllables or letters are sometimes emphasized that you get to connect at the level it was intended. Hey, there's a lot of beautiful music I don't fully understand either but I'm in awe of the crumbs I'm able to gather 😂
jamas el tuvo nunca nociones de musica en su vida..!! el no era de familia adinerada no se de donde sacas tan tremenda pendejada estupidez... lo de el era NATURAL... ASI NACIO
@@orozcoaj69 You can find José José singing along with his mother, just google "Jose Jose y Doña Margarita Ortiz - Las Margaritas". his family was "gifted" - cant really call them gifted because it was fruit of endless hours of training. now... if she could sing something, yeah perhaps thats true, but her job was concert pianist, even Wikipedia can confirm this. "José José nació en la Ciudad de México el 17 de febrero de 1948. Fue el primogénito de José Sosa Esquivel, famoso tenor de ópera, y de la concertista de piano Margarita Ortiz Pensado."
Amado Carrillo Oh, no sabía nada de la vida del hombre. Pero muy buena música por su parte. Que pena que no haya cultivado ese talento siempre, con un mejor estilo de vida estuviésemos aún disfrutando de su talento.
And those people caught in camera in awe of his voice and applauding are quite famous singers as well. An acknowledgement of how truly great José José was
His parents were an opera singer and a pianist, maybe that’s why he was so great. He also played double bass in jazz combos early on. May he RIP. Nice reaction, Beth, thank you.
Luz apagada, nada de ruido, solo tus audífonos.... Sientes lo que canta, sientes su dolor y te relaciona con algún momento de tu vida... Así de mágica era la voz de José
@@EMCPunk Jose Jose es para mi el mejor cantante en el mundo. Hay un hueco en nuestros corazones. Nino Bravo ( que en Paz descanse ) fue otro monstruo de la cancion. QDP
That microphone could barely withstand his powerful voice. It would sound so much more beautiful if he was using modern tech. Oh goodness I could only imagine
5:08 Just by looking at Marco Antonio Muñiz's face you can tell that was an astounding performance, he was completely flabbergasted. He was like: "Holly shit! that´s singing!" And he is one of the greatest Mexican singers ever.
Yea it gave me chills when he admitted to that, that no one not even him would ever be able to sing that song as good as he did that day ..ugh my heart
When I was very little my mother introduced me to his songs. He's was one of the greatest Mexican singers. They called him. El príncipe de la canción. (The Prince of the Song).. RIP Jose Jose.
@@circuloactivo tienes mucha razón, era talento puro, hoy los cantantes usan mucho el auto tune, en el caso de los latinos, se usa mucho en el regaeton
@@bemusedcanon2829 Yes, Sinatra was a HUGE fan. Blue Eyes himself asked to record a duet but the record labels didn't allow it. Also Sinatra himself put him the nickname "El Príncipe de la Canción"("The Prince of the Song") Also there is something interesting about this version. This was in the "Festival Mundial de la Canción Latina" in 1970, and was the first time the song was play in public (Even pre dates the recorded version) so, the people there is their FIRST time listening to the song ever, and some people in the audience are actually other famous latin singers and are as stunned like the rest of the audience. José José himself said that NOBODY not Even him can replicate the beauty of that first time.
He was the number one singer from Mexico ,was the mexican frank Sinatra , his wild life got him sick and lost his voice but he still the Prince of the song. PRINCIPE DE LA CANCION love your channel ❤️
5:08 This guy is Marco antonio Muñiz called "The Luxury of Mexico" for his exquisite voice. But, right there he is astonished with José José performance Maybe thinking, where did this guy come from? Mars?
Roberto Cantoral wrote this song to his mom that had just passed away, it’s about how he feels so much pain losing a loved one, he was waiting for just the right person to sing it and got a couple of options the girl that was number one or this young man that was just starting but that was really good: Jose Jose, he was entered in this show with”El triste” song but didn’t win, it was all about the songs not the singer, he got third place, and people always said he was “the king with no crown “ to this day no one remembers the first place song and the singer, he had a very tormented life, happy times and very hard times, but he always survived everything including his drinking problem which almost killed him, in his last years he couldn’t sing anymore he lost his voice, he could barely talk, if you guys didn’t know him I invite you to check out his songs and videos of his life, he was he is and will be “ el principe de la canción” forever y para siempre😪❤️
El Triste means the Sad one in English I remember listening to this with my dad because he misses my grandparents in Mexico and this was the song that he sang to them the night he left to come to the USA. VIVA MEXICO CABORNES!!🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
The truth is that understanding the words makes him a great interpreter.. All his songs were a hit, the words and the feelings... "All the people tell me im so sad, that i always find me talking about you.. But they dont know and just thunking about your voice is what allows me to keep living" the song is called "the sad guy".. So he is able to trnasmit a love and the sadness he feels for not having "her" in her life. "The story of this love was written for eternity"... you dont know but.. Its not about the chorus is about the "Words".. That was a Festival were "New singers" (new voices of the Year) and Come with a "New Song" .. So if people love that "first hearing the song" melody and voice were cheered
The author wrote this song in his way of his mother's funeral. This song does not talk about a couple who broke up. The song talks abouth the author's love for his mother. Thank you.
I’ve always loved this song and this live version for me is one of the best live songs by any Latin artist I’ve ever seen. Yet I never knew the background of the song until now. Thank you for sharing. Oh my... now the lyrics are even heavier and sadder knowing it was written by the author for his mother. One thing is writing over a breakup... another is writing about the loss of your mother. God damnit I didn’t expect to cry today.
Man I'm from Puerto Rico and I used to hear Jose Jose when my mom cleaned the house and I just loved to hear him all the time I just love his voice, RIP
Dennis Nicholson I grew up with his music, and it has been 10-15 years hat I don’t listen to “new” music, it has no style, no power, I love music like this, Jose Jose and many others
That old? Good god, my late father was just 1 year old, and my mom was 3 years old when he sang this. And yes. Good music is timeless, and talent is remembered forever.
I learned that there is no other form of music that has more passion than that from Mexico. You don't have to know the words but you know the song from the passion. When the song cries you cry when the song laughs, you laugh. So wonderful.
He got everything that was needed, as far as the info that I'v read over the years states, huge lungs and breath capacity, diction and pronunciation, very flexible vocal cords... feeling and passion and for sure the love of Mexican people. Unfortunately he had also an appetite for self destruction, same as many other talented people. I guess life has to give you both , otherwise you would be perfect or close to it. RIP José José. Thanks for the video.
I don't think he had an appetite for self destruction. He raised to popularity very young and bad influences guided him to alcoholism. They ran his bank account and left him broke and addict. He realized he didn't want that live and registered in AA, he stayed sober for several years, but in the set of the movie "Gavilan o Paloma" some actors insisted in making him drink even knowing he was an alcoholic in recovery and made him fall again, to the point of becoming homeless and without any medical insurance he got some infection in his throat that killed his voice. He met his second wife in his worst point, but with some support from her and from AA again, he recovered and stayed sober for the last two decades. Someone with an appetite for self destruction does not stay sober for that long.
As a Mexican whenever i see a foreigner reacting to jose Jose and loving it and praising his voice it makes me happy to know that music doesn't have barriers at all and can be enjoyed by anyone 🔥🔥🔥
Se puede ver claramente a Ángelica María, Marco Antonio Muñiz y Alberto Vásquez, pero seguro por ahí hay más. Los tres que menciono se ven bastante sorprendidos por lo que están escuchando, en especial Marco Antonio.
@@luistrujillo7923 , estaba muy concurrido el evento, creo que también se ve por ahí al famoso conductor y periodista de espectáculos Juan "El Gallo" Calderón, seguramente estaban presentes más músicos, cantantes, periodistas, etc. no sólo de México sino de otros países por ser un certamen internacional.
Sinatra was in love with Jose Jose’s voice... He invited him to make a duet but it wasnt possible because Jose Jose’s record label didnt allow him. About this presentation, it was a latinamerican music contest, and surprisingly he didnt win. It was the first time ever that he showed this song to the world, even before the recorded version.
"El TRISTE "......Tristes ahora somos todos los amantes de tus musica 🥺 pero nos quedamos con tu música y los mejores recuerdos que nos dejaste no solo a los mexicanos si no a todo el mundo Decansa en paz Principe que fuiste el mejor la rompiste 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌😢😭
@IsraelMedrano he means that he's dead and it's no longer possible to listen to him live. And he suffered immense vocal damage in his later years which left his voice rather poor in comparison
You are on point: His dad, Jose Sosa Esquivel, was a tenor. He got his beautiful voice from him. By the way, you mentioned he would have been spectacular live, well, that video was live, at the OTI Festival 1970. I don't know if I am right but I would say the microphone couldn't stand his strong voice at one point 😁 R.I.P. Jose Jose ❤🙏
He was my mom's singer and when she was alive she forced me to hear his music I thought I didn't like it, but little by little I learned to love him and to respect his wonderful vocals and the way he delivered a song. He will be missed, even though he has always been close to me, his music will be with me forever. My mom was his biggest fan and she left me a while ago and I kept listening to his music to remember her, now I will listen to his music to remember him too...
You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this video. He recently passed away, people are still mourning his death all over the world. Thank you for reviewing this old video from the Oti competition.
It was amazing live. One of my parents watched him and listened to him live in the 80's. He told me was the greatest singer he has listened live in his entire life. My old man is almost 70 now
He was 21 at the time, just after releasing his first album. This festival was his first massive TV appearance. He went third place, much to the chagrin and indignation of the TV audience.... This performance is still treasured, no one remembers who went "first".
El apodo se lo dio el periodista Juan el "gallo" calderón. Y no fue por su voz, fue por su vestimenta. Ya que su traje asemeja el sacó del personaje principal del libro "el principito" el tipo de cuello, las mangas y la solapa. Dándole el mote el príncipe por si voz y la magistral interpretación en un juego de palabras lo bautizo como "el príncipe de la canción"
El apodo lo recibió en ese concurso al quedar en segundo lugar... Justo en ese festival y con esa canción por eso el príncipe de la canción haciendo alusión al segundo lugar que obtuvo....
This song makes me cry. Reminds me of my childhood and my grandma. He was one of her favorite singers. He was always amazing. This song will forever be a great classic. Songs like this don't exist anymore.
this man is not just a singer, He is Jose Jose one of the most beautiful voices in the world, he was excellence and then some... this video is from OTI festival 1970, but i am sure that you can find videos with better sound and video, and trust me you will be blown away. Beth Roars, thank you.
All the world, even the Britishes, fall in love with José José when they listen to him. He was amazing, even perfect. The best balad voice in Spanish of the history.
I love how you completely describe the singing components. It’s refreshing to have someone articulate something as primordial as singing in such a clear and technical way. Super spot on!
The Sad one How sadly it was to say you goodbye When we loved each other more, Until the swallow emigrated, Heralding the end. How sadly everything looks without you The seas of the beaches leave, The colors of gray are dyed Today everything is loneliness. I don't know if I see you again later I don't know what my life will be, Without the blue star of your being That doesn't light me anymore. Today I want to taste my pain, I don't ask for compassion or mercy, The story of this love was written For eternity.
The Sad one, everyone says that I am, that I'am always talking about you, They don't know that thinking about your love, In your love I've been able to help me to live, I've been able to help me to live. uoooooohhh, oooooohhhh. Today I want to taste my pain, I don't ask for compassion or mercy, The story of this love was written For eternity.
The Sad one, everyone says that I am, that I'am always talking about you, They don't know that thinking about your love, In your love I've been able to help me to live, I've been able to help me to live, I've been able to help me to live. Sorry if I made mistakes, english not is my native lenguage.... and it is difficult to convey the feeling of this song by just changing the language... Hasta pronto José José, México te quiere.
5:06 que impresionante hasta a Marco antonio Muñiz se le caía la baba de tanta perfección y Beth también 5:19, pero los tarugos que le dieron el tercer lugar como que ridículo para la historia.
En eso te encuentro toda la razón... jaja nadie cantará esa canción colmo la cantó José Josef esa noche... asta el reconoció que nunca la podría cantar como esa noche
Oh my! Thank you Beth, several generations grew up with his music, my mom was in love with him and this performance always make me cry. He was awesome, he had it all and lost it, including his amazing voice; but always will be our "Prince of the Song" RIP José José Great reaction, thank you.
Long live José José, so many bohemian nights enjoying his music! The man was by far the best singer in Latin América, it’s a shame he lost his voice in the end but the man truly lived and that’s something very few people can brag about!.
También estaba el que sería meses después Su coprotagonista en 2 de sus películas Fernando Lujan, está en los segundos finales aplaudiendo, y había otras celebridades no mostradas en cámara, Roberto Cantoral, Manzanero, entre otros.
This is one translation of the song: How sad it was to say goodbye when we loved each other the most. Even the swallow migrated, foreshadowing the end. Everything seems sad without you. The seas are leaving the beaches, all colors are dyeing gray. Today, everything is loneliness. I don't know if I will see you again. I don't know what will become of my life without the blue bright star of your being, which won't shine for me anymore. Today, I want to savor my pain, I won't ask for compassion nor mercy. The story of this love was written to the eternity. Now, everyone calls me "the sad one", because I'm always talking about you. They can't imagine that by thinking about your love, about your love, is the only way I have found to stay alive, to stay alive. Today, I want to savor my pain, I won't ask for compassion nor pity. The story of this love was written for the eternity. Now, everyone calls me "the sad one", because I'm always talking about you. They can't imagine that by thinking about your love, about your love, I am able to stay alive.

@@bemusedcanon2829 yes, he even wanted to do a duet with Jose Jose.
@@hptrrs5251 that's so cool I never knew that sadly we never got to hear it
@@bemusedcanon2829 Yes, Sinatra was a HUGE fan. Blue Eyes himself asked to record a duet but the record labels didn't allow it. Also Sinatra himself put him the nickname "El Príncipe de la Canción"("The Prince of the Song")
Also there is something interesting about this version. This was in the "Festival Mundial de la Canción Latina" in 1970, and was the first time the song was play in public (Even pre dates the recorded version) so, the people there is their FIRST time listening to the song ever, and some people in the audience are actually other famous latin singers and are as stunned like the rest of the audience. José José himself said that NOBODY not Even him can replicate the beauty of that first time.
He was the number one singer from Mexico ,was the mexican frank Sinatra , his wild life got him sick and lost his voice but he still the Prince of the song. PRINCIPE DE LA CANCION love your channel ❤️

This guy is Marco antonio Muñiz called "The Luxury of Mexico" for his exquisite voice.
But, right there he is astonished with José José performance
Maybe thinking, where did this guy come from? Mars?
TheMatrixPipe y vi a Angelica Maria, y Alberto Vazquez aplaudiendo
Anabel Pulido todos estaban sacados de pedo, hoy, casi 50 años después sigue siendo una actuación increíble
In my opinion, the best Mexican singer of all time.
Javier Solís the best
@@fernandogdelreal5707 sin duda alguna Javier...
We love him Japan especially!👍
Sorry, Pedro Infante
Yes! José José is the best mexican singer of all time. Javier y pedro infante son buenos, but José José is the best. Spanglish xD
Roberto Cantoral wrote this song to his mom that had just passed away, it’s about how he feels so much pain losing a loved one, he was waiting for just the right person to sing it and got a couple of options the girl that was number one or this young man that was just starting but that was really good: Jose Jose, he was entered in this show with”El triste” song but didn’t win, it was all about the songs not the singer, he got third place, and people always said he was “the king with no crown “ to this day no one remembers the first place song and the singer, he had a very tormented life, happy times and very hard times, but he always survived everything including his drinking problem which almost killed him, in his last years he couldn’t sing anymore he lost his voice, he could barely talk, if you guys didn’t know him I invite you to check out his songs and videos of his life, he was he is and will be “ el principe de la canción” forever y para siempre😪❤️
El Triste means the Sad one in English I remember listening to this with my dad because he misses my grandparents in Mexico and this was the song that he sang to them the night he left to come to the USA. VIVA MEXICO CABORNES!!🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Viva!!!!
I learned spanish through music...and this was the first song Inheard from him...it impacted me greatly.
R. SNGS you had a great teacher.
The truth is that understanding the words makes him a great interpreter.. All his songs were a hit, the words and the feelings... "All the people tell me im so sad, that i always find me talking about you.. But they dont know and just thunking about your voice is what allows me to keep living" the song is called "the sad guy".. So he is able to trnasmit a love and the sadness he feels for not having "her" in her life. "The story of this love was written for eternity"... you dont know but.. Its not about the chorus is about the "Words".. That was a Festival were "New singers" (new voices of the Year) and Come with a "New Song" .. So if people love that "first hearing the song" melody and voice were cheered
@@ariannameruz1435 you should listen to his version of Frank Sinatra's hit New York. It is wonderful.
I’m trying to tell that to my gringo boyfriend !
The author wrote this song in his way of his mother's funeral. This song does not talk about a couple who broke up. The song talks abouth the author's love for his mother.
Thank you.
Yes it is! Saludos!!
I’ve always loved this song and this live version for me is one of the best live songs by any Latin artist I’ve ever seen. Yet I never knew the background of the song until now. Thank you for sharing. Oh my... now the lyrics are even heavier and sadder knowing it was written by the author for his mother. One thing is writing over a breakup... another is writing about the loss of your mother. God damnit I didn’t expect to cry today.
No it wasn’t....
En serio?
@@JoseMorales-pc5yk here, have a Kleenex
I love this! Sadly he just passed away this Saturday so this feels even more special! Tysm
RIP Jose Jose
He made a comment that no one including himself would ever sing this song the way he did that day!
And he was correct
And he was absolutely correct! Such a talent, such a legend! He will for ever be the prince of music.
Man I'm from Puerto Rico and I used to hear Jose Jose when my mom cleaned the house and I just loved to hear him all the time I just love his voice, RIP

My Armenian friends love Jose Jose and play them at weddings.
I cry at his because IS ONE OF MY jOSE joSE FAVORITE SONGS EVER, AND HE SUFFERED SO MUCH IN HIS LIFE, WE WILL MISS YOU, GRAN MAESTRO .
Djviana Tengo todos sus CD. Es lo unico que me comforta. El Triste es la Cancion que mas me impacto. Paz
He is still without a fair farewell cause her evil daughter Sara.
I'll miss him
1970? Golly, Beth, that's when I graduated from high school; shows that good music and singing are timeless.
Dennis Nicholson I grew up with his music, and it has been 10-15 years hat I don’t listen to “new” music, it has no style, no power, I love music like this, Jose Jose and many others
That old? Good god, my late father was just 1 year old, and my mom was 3 years old when he sang this. And yes. Good music is timeless, and talent is remembered forever.
@@Sophia-sw2nq Yes, most certainly, this man's singing voice and his control of it is outstanding. Thank you so much for your reply.
I learned that there is no other form of music that has more passion than that from Mexico. You don't have to know the words but you know the song from the passion. When the song cries you cry when the song laughs, you laugh. So wonderful.
"Juan Gabriel, Hasta que te conocí" en el Palacio de Bellas Artes, me gustaría ver que opinas

He got everything that was needed, as far as the info that I'v read over the years states, huge lungs and breath capacity, diction and pronunciation, very flexible vocal cords... feeling and passion and for sure the love of Mexican people.
Unfortunately he had also an appetite for self destruction, same as many other talented people. I guess life has to give you both , otherwise you would be perfect or close to it. RIP José José.
Thanks for the video.
Marcel Cabrera correct. About 5 lts of tequila a day at some point.
I don't think he had an appetite for self destruction. He raised to popularity very young and bad influences guided him to alcoholism. They ran his bank account and left him broke and addict. He realized he didn't want that live and registered in AA, he stayed sober for several years, but in the set of the movie "Gavilan o Paloma" some actors insisted in making him drink even knowing he was an alcoholic in recovery and made him fall again, to the point of becoming homeless and without any medical insurance he got some infection in his throat that killed his voice. He met his second wife in his worst point, but with some support from her and from AA again, he recovered and stayed sober for the last two decades. Someone with an appetite for self destruction does not stay sober for that long.
@@granadosvm yes he had, i REALLY DOUBT that he dosnt know what will happen.
Rest in peace maestro. He was one of the finest Mexican singers ever. Thank you Beth for doing this video 🇲🇽♥️🇬🇧
As a Mexican whenever i see a foreigner reacting to jose Jose and loving it and praising his voice it makes me happy to know that music doesn't have barriers at all and can be enjoyed by anyone 🔥🔥🔥
The audience was full of other singers and even they couldn't hide their admiration for the greatest of all our artists.
NO manches neta? como quienes?
Se puede ver claramente a Ángelica María, Marco Antonio Muñiz y Alberto Vásquez, pero seguro por ahí hay más. Los tres que menciono se ven bastante sorprendidos por lo que están escuchando, en especial Marco Antonio.
E. S. C.H. Al igual que Eric del Castillo, Es el de saco rojiso que lo abraza al terminar de cantar.
@@luistrujillo7923 , estaba muy concurrido el evento, creo que también se ve por ahí al famoso conductor y periodista de espectáculos Juan "El Gallo" Calderón, seguramente estaban presentes más músicos, cantantes, periodistas, etc. no sólo de México sino de otros países por ser un certamen internacional.
@@luistrujillo7923 No es Eric del Castillo. Es Andrès Garcìa.
Sinatra was in love with Jose Jose’s voice... He invited him to make a duet but it wasnt possible because Jose Jose’s record label didnt allow him.
About this presentation, it was a latinamerican music contest, and surprisingly he didnt win. It was the first time ever that he showed this song to the world, even before the recorded version.
I think he was second place?
@@archerland third

Who won that contest?

Her: I think it'd be so spectacular live
Us: in tears
who's gonna tell her?
@@monkemtz Obviously she knows that she is listening to a live recording. She means to witness the performance in person; to be part of that crowd.
@IsraelMedrano he means that he's dead and it's no longer possible to listen to him live. And he suffered immense vocal damage in his later years which left his voice rather poor in comparison
Yeah his dad was an opera singer, RIP my prince, Jose Jose forever.
His voice always gives me chills& tears.. he is so connected with the lyrics and brings out the emotions that these songs were meant to do
Yes! It touches our soul.
You should do Juan Gabriel - Hasta que te conocí in Bellas Artes

Because he was also a great (most prolific) composer
Oh please!!!
Hey! Here is my reaction to Juan Gabriel: ua-cam.com/video/R5QlWQojatA/v-deo.html
Una clase a muchos cantantes moditas de hoy.. abrazo from Brazil
You are on point: His dad, Jose Sosa Esquivel, was a tenor. He got his beautiful voice from him. By the way, you mentioned he would have been spectacular live, well, that video was live, at the OTI Festival 1970. I don't know if I am right but I would say the microphone couldn't stand his strong voice at one point 😁
R.I.P. Jose Jose ❤🙏
Before it was called OTI, it was the music festival of the Latin song,. I think.
Our mexican engineers are huge smart!
Live as being there, in that momento, present there.
Yes, the concert was live!
Alejandra Limas. Her mother was also a soprano singer
They would literally boo you off the stage if they didn't like you, and he stunned the crowd
He was my mom's singer and when she was alive she forced me to hear his music I thought I didn't like it, but little by little I learned to love him and to respect his wonderful vocals and the way he delivered a song. He will be missed, even though he has always been close to me, his music will be with me forever. My mom was his biggest fan and she left me a while ago and I kept listening to his music to remember her, now I will listen to his music to remember him too...
Same. I used to hate it when my mom played his songs. Now I am heartbroken he passed away
Same here, it’s my moms favorite singer and I grew up listening to his music, now I love it too .
My dad had a ton of his cassettes in his van, every damn trip was a José José marathon. Same, i said i hated it, but i knew every song.
Que linda historia 😍
Para la gente que no entiende ingles pues
Tiene subtítulos no mamen xd
Para pendejo no se estudia carnal haha 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
antes no los tenia
Anuma zicierto
No mames en serio?
Si no lo dices no me entero....
Lmao no mames wey
Frank Sinatra admired his talent tremendously. Wanted to record with him.
Siendo que fue Sinatra quien lo hizo famoso, obviamente lo admiraba pero mas que nada, por que eran amigos.
Uno de los mejores cantantes Mexicanos
Hoy México está de luto 🇲🇽♥
De México y del mundo
No uno, el mejor.
El mejor de todos Arian
El mejor de habla hispana
You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this video. He recently passed away, people are still mourning his death all over the world. Thank you for reviewing this old video from the Oti competition.
It was before OTI
Jose jose was a world class artist. I think people would be pretty surprised to see how many great singers Mexico has produced over the years.
It was amazing live. One of my parents watched him and listened to him live in the 80's. He told me was the greatest singer he has listened live in his entire life. My old man is almost 70 now
He was 21 at the time, just after releasing his first album. This
festival was his first massive TV appearance. He went third place, much
to the chagrin and indignation of the TV audience.... This performance
is still treasured, no one remembers who went "first".
A fun fact: On that festival he get third place, everybody says they stole the first place from him.
Got 3rd actually, nobody remember 1st (brasil) and second (Venezuela)
@@fgarceo what festival was this? I'd like to watch it online
@@channeld7052 Was Festival OTI You can find it on Utube

"EL PRINCIPE DE LA CANCION"
Así lo apodo Frank Sinatra, un dato interesante
Si y no... Frank más bien le decía así "Mi amigo, usted no es el príncipe de la canción... Usted es el rey!!!"
el apodo viene por la canción el principe , que interpretaba en sus inicios , la anécdota de sinatra es que el lo llama el rey , no el príncipe .
El apodo se lo dio el periodista Juan el "gallo" calderón. Y no fue por su voz, fue por su vestimenta. Ya que su traje asemeja el sacó del personaje principal del libro "el principito" el tipo de cuello, las mangas y la solapa.
Dándole el mote el príncipe por si voz y la magistral interpretación en un juego de palabras lo bautizo como "el príncipe de la canción"
El apodo lo recibió en ese concurso al quedar en segundo lugar...
Justo en ese festival y con esa canción por eso el príncipe de la canción haciendo alusión al segundo lugar que obtuvo....
@@jhljesushorta obtuvo el tercer lugar
"The Prince of the Song". He passed away a few days ago. He had a huge talent and will be forever remembered.
A star in Mexico's music is gone :(
This song makes me cry. Reminds me of my childhood and my grandma. He was one of her favorite singers. He was always amazing. This song will forever be a great classic.
Songs like this don't exist anymore.
this man is not just a singer, He is Jose Jose one of the most beautiful voices in the world, he was excellence and then some... this video is from OTI festival 1970, but i am sure that you can find videos with better sound and video, and trust me you will be blown away. Beth Roars, thank you.
The song is about suffering, and his tone is really laconic, he was acting at the same time he was singing. By, Mexican Prince of the Song.
He wasn't acting he was suffering for a woman :(
Manuel Garcia el no composito la cancion no mames.
@@FuerzaImperialOficial composito? Jjaajja
@@ManuelGarcia-tb8zk As a singer he was acting "the song". Histrionismo (in spanish), it's a big part in singing.
Fredy Hohner ¿composito? 😳
And remember he was just 22 years old in that performance.
Is not just the thechique, also, the lyrics, with that outstanding voice is impressive.
Saw ur reactions 5 years ago. And i still love ur reaction to this.
That song is the hardest that he sang in throughout his musical career
Let me correct you ...the darndest song is LA NAVE DEL OLVIDO
@@mikeram7814 Nope, this is the hardest
He’s now signing in heaven 😭
:(
Gives me chills I feel like crying such iconic singer.
En finas palabras le dijo: José "la fucking bestia" José🔥🔥🔥
All the world, even the Britishes, fall in love with José José when they listen to him. He was amazing, even perfect. The best balad voice in Spanish of the history.
British* o Brits*
This legend has just passed away 😭 Rest in peace.
Ana Karen Najera nah we have a legion of copycats, legendary concerts and tributes and plenty of family carnage.
Thank you for analyzing one of the most loved musicians in Mexico.
Me gustan tus vídeos
I love how you completely describe the singing components. It’s refreshing to have someone articulate something as primordial as singing in such a clear and technical way. Super spot on!
Rest easy Don Jose. My mom used to listen to his music all the time. Glad you were able to enjoy his music 😊
The best Jose Jose RIP ‘The prince of the song” His heart is on each word
His heart is on each word

The Sad one
How sadly it was to say you goodbye
When we loved each other more,
Until the swallow emigrated,
Heralding the end.
How sadly everything looks without you
The seas of the beaches leave,
The colors of gray are dyed
Today everything is loneliness.
I don't know if I see you again later
I don't know what my life will be,
Without the blue star of your being
That doesn't light me anymore.
Today I want to taste my pain,
I don't ask for compassion or mercy,
The story of this love was written
For eternity.
The Sad one, everyone says that I am,
that I'am always talking about you,
They don't know that thinking about your love, In your love
I've been able to help me to live,
I've been able to help me to live.
uoooooohhh, oooooohhhh.
Today I want to taste my pain,
I don't ask for compassion or mercy,
The story of this love was written
For eternity.
The Sad one, everyone says that I am,
that I'am always talking about you,
They don't know that thinking about your love, In your love
I've been able to help me to live,
I've been able to help me to live,
I've been able to help me to live.
Sorry if I made mistakes, english not is my native lenguage.... and it is difficult to convey the feeling of this song by just changing the language... Hasta pronto José José, México te quiere.
Jose Jose. What can you say that his singing can’t tell you? Amazement, greatness, passion. Heart.
5:06 que impresionante hasta a Marco antonio Muñiz se le caía la baba de tanta perfección y Beth también 5:19, pero los tarugos que le dieron el tercer lugar como que ridículo para la historia.
😂
Quien gano 1er, 2do?
En eso te encuentro toda la razón... jaja nadie cantará esa canción colmo la cantó José Josef esa noche... asta el reconoció que nunca la podría cantar como esa noche
Lo que pasa es que en el concurso lo que contaba más era la letra de la canción
@@adelacontreras7419 es absurdo para que lo invitan un concurso de letras bonitas?
One of the best singer from Latin American music. Jose Jose is a legend from Canada to Chile. Long live Mexico. ♥️
Thank you Estela...we are fortunate to have many exceptional artist in Mexico but also in Latin America in general...so passionate
Oh my! Thank you Beth, several generations grew up with his music, my mom was in love with him and this performance always make me cry.
He was awesome, he had it all and lost it, including his amazing voice; but always will be our "Prince of the Song" RIP José José
Great reaction, thank you.
Well said! ♥️
Long live José José, so many bohemian nights enjoying his music! The man was by far the best singer in Latin América, it’s a shame he lost his voice in the end but the man truly lived and that’s something very few people can brag about!.

The sex symbol Andres Garcia was there too, hugging Jose Jose at the end.
This is one translation of the song:
How sad it was to say goodbye
when we loved each other the most.
Even the swallow migrated,
foreshadowing the end.
Everything seems sad without you.
The seas are leaving the beaches,
all colors are dyeing gray.
Today, everything is loneliness.
I don't know if I will see you again.
I don't know what will become of my life
without the blue bright star of your being,
which won't shine for me anymore.
Today, I want to savor my pain,
I won't ask for compassion nor mercy.
The story of this love was written to the eternity.
Now, everyone calls me "the sad one",
because I'm always talking about you.
They can't imagine that by thinking about your love, about your love,
is the only way I have found to stay alive, to stay alive.
Today, I want to savor my pain, I won't ask for compassion nor pity.
The story of this love was written for the eternity.
Now, everyone calls me "the sad one",
because I'm always talking about you.
They can't imagine that by thinking about your love, about your love,
I am able to stay alive.
No se como llegue a este video, pero viéndolo, y escuchando al príncipe, de repente mis ojos se llenaron de lagrimas, que grande era y será por siempre
Josè Josè was a super singer, one of the best ever. His voice was out of this planet. Thanks for your reaction to this iconic Mexican singer.
