Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bйsame, bйsame...)
Bйsame, bйsame mucho
Each time I cling to your kiss
I hear music divine
Bйsame, bйsame mucho
That you'll always be mine
Dearest one, if you should leave me
Then each little dream will take wings
And my life would be through
Bйsame, bйsame, bйsame mucho
Love me forever and make
All my dreams come true
This joy is something new
My arms enfolding you
Never knew this thrill before
Who ever thought I'd be
Holding you close to me
Whispering, it's you I adore
Well, dearest one, baby
If you should leave me
Each little dream would take wings
And my life would be through
Bйsame, bйsame, bйsame mucho
Love me forever and make
All my dreams come true
Bйsame, bйsame, bйsame...

Bйsame, bйsame mucho
Kiss me, kiss me a lot
Each time I cling to your kiss
Whenever I hold onto your kiss
I hear music divine
It sounds like a divine music to my ears
Hold me, my darling, and say
Embrace me, my love, and promise
That you'll always be mine
That you'll be forever mine
Dearest one, if you should leave me
Beloved, if you choose to depart from me
Then each little dream will take wings
All our dreams would just disappear
And my life would be through
My life would become meaningless
Love me forever and make
Love me endlessly and ensure
All my dreams come true
That all my aspirations turn into reality
This joy is something new
This is a fresh sensation of happiness
My arms enfolding you
As I hold you closely in my arms
Never knew this thrill before
I have never felt this ecstatic before
Who ever thought I'd be
I never imagined myself
Holding you close to me
Being so close to you
Whispering, it's you I adore
Whispering my love, admiration and adoration for you

I did some serious moves to this Great Coasters big hit! The bass cannot be surpassed to this day! A GREAT Sound and Arrangement! Good to the Last Note..Besamae Mucho by the Coasters.

The Coasters can do no wrong in my eyes. I have all their albums and singles and there are no duff tracks on any of them, including single B sides. My favourite US band of all time.

Are all of their albums and singles available on CD?

Many thanks for all your kind comments,yes it is hard to find but I have had a CD of The Coasters for many years now,they are one of the best and yes King Curtis's sax playing is unbelievable,in my mind rock and roll,doo wop etc etc were made for the saxophone,a marriage made in heaven,glad I've managed to make your musical enjoyment just that little bit better

A fantastic version of Besame Mucho: an orquestration well before its time and that is why this is still up to date. The viedo is also great. Thanks for sharing

many MORE thanks, Steve. I've sought out this record for years and years; it's NOWHERE! And isn't King Curtis' sax haunting? TERRIFIC!

Had never heard this rendition before. However, it is claimed that this is the one that inspired one Paul McCartney to work it up with his little club band in the early 60s before they hit it big. The Beatles recorded it for their Decca audition. It was better served up live with Ringo on the Star Club recording. The song has a long history and my first exposure to it at all was not hearing the music but hearing Jackie Gleason refer to it in a comedy sketch. Go figure.
