Bosé was born in San Fernando Hospital in Panama City, Panama, the son of the famous Italian actress Lucia Bosé and the legendary bullfighter Luis Miguel González Lucas. He is also cousin of Carmen Ordóñez. His Godfather was Luchino Visconti.
In 1971, Bosé started a career as an actor, participating in various movies. However, he did not make that many films, and in 1975 he decided a career change was due and started exploring his talents as a singer. By the hand of Camilo Blanes he recorded his first singles. Some years later Bosé signed a contract with CBS Records in 1977 and he remained with them until 1984.
On March 16 of 2010 he received the Colombian citizenship during a ceremony in the presidential palace, Casa de Nariño.
Yolanda
Miguel Bosé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nomás que una canción
Quisiera fuera una declaración de amor.
Romántica sin reparar en formas tales
Que ponga un freno
A lo que ahora siento a raudales.
Eternamente te amo.
Si me faltaras
No voy a morirme
Si voy a morir
Quiero que sea contigo.
Mi soledad se siente acompañada
Por eso a veces sé que necesito
Tu mano, tu mano
Eternamente tu mano.
Cuando te vi
Sabía que era cierto
Este temor
De hallarme descubierto.
Tú me desnudas con siete razones
Me abres el pecho siempre,
Siempre que me colmas
De amores, de amores
Eternamente de amores.
Si alguna vez me siento derrotado
Renuncio a ver el sol cada mañana
Rezando el credo
Que tú me has enseñado.
Miro tu cara y digo en la ventana
Yolanda, Yolanda
Eternamente Yolanda
Yolanda, Yolanda
Eternamente...
Yolanda, Yolanda,
Yolanda, Yolanda,
Yolanda, Yolanda,
Yolanda, Yolanda, Yolanda,
(Yolanda), Yolanda.
In "Yolanda" by Miguel Bosé, the lyrics speak of the intense love the singer has for someone named Yolanda. He expresses that he wishes the song could act as his confession of love. The song is presented in a simple style, avoiding complexities that may hinder the expression of feelings. It is romantic without adhering to any formalities, which would indeed hinder his overflowing emotions. The singer is transparent in his feelings as he acknowledges his fear of being exposed when he first saw Yolanda. He talks about how she has opened his heart and filled it with love.
The song is full of genuine emotion and sincerity, and Bosé's singing enhances the mood with a soft and engaging tone. The lyrics accurately capture the feeling of being in love, the journey that one undergoes as they recognize and acknowledge their deep feelings for someone. The singer acknowledges his vulnerability, which is often what leads to fear and hesitation when expressing one's feelings. Yolanda's presence gives him the courage to face his fears and open himself up to her.
"Yolanda" has gained popularity in Spanish-speaking countries, and interestingly, Bosé's original version was recorded in Italian. The song has been covered and translated into different languages, including English, and used in various films.
