Montaner was born as H茅ctor Eduardo Reglero Montaner, in Valent铆n Alsina, Buenos Aires, Argentina. However, he moved to Venezuela when he was 6 years old. During his youth he performed in the church chorus in the city of Maracaibo. In 1983, he released his first album titled Cada D铆a. Although the album was not a great success, it was a start for Montaner's career. He describes this album:"as his own version of death metal"
It wasn't until 1987 when Montaner became widely popular in Venezuela with the singles "Yo Que Te Am茅" and "Vamos a Dejarlo" belonging to his self-titled album.
The following year he came out with Ricardo Montaner 2 which featured hit songs like "Tan Enamorados" and "A Donde Va El Amor". At the same time, he acted in the popular soap opera Ni帽a Bonita. This also became a tool to make his songs known to the rest of Latin America. He won 4 platinum albums in Argentina alone. His next two albums, Un Toque de Misterio and En el 脷ltimo Lugar del Mundo, became classics of the popular music in Mexico, Central and South America with hits such as "La Cima del Cielo", "Me Va a Extra帽ar", "D茅jame Llorar" and "Ser谩".
By 1992 Ricardo decided to hit the Spanish Caribbean with Los Hijos del Sol, an album that contained songs like "Castillo Azul", "Honda" and "Piel Adentro". That year, he also recorded a duet with Michelle, which was the Latinamerican version for the Aladdin song "A Whole New World" titled "Un Mundo Ideal".
Although Montaner has written most of his songs he has worked closely with other great song writers in Latin America such as Pablo Manavello, Ilan Chester and Oscar G贸mez. But in 1994, Ricardo Montaner wrote and produced all the songs in his album Una Ma帽ana y un Camino, which became popular only years after his release due to the lack of promotion by his new record label EMI Latin, with which Ricardo would also release Viene del Alma in 1995, an Italian pop flavored album. Also in 1995 he teamed up with Yolandita Monge to establish a Guinness World Record for performing 3 concerts in different cities on the same day in Puerto Rico. This was only possible by air transportation via helicopter from stage to stage.
By 1997, Montaner was already a well established artist in the Spanish speaking music world and could give himself the luxury of experimenting with other styles of music, without forgetting the roots that had made him so popular a decade earlier. Working one more time with Pablo Manavello and with a new record company, Warner Music proved to be the promoter Ricardo was expecting for. Es As铆 brought Ricardo much popularity in the United States Spanish speaking areas and allowed Montaner to tour more than 17 countries in Latin America making him even more popular in Spain. Songs like "La Mujer de Mi Vida", "Para Llorar" and "Es As铆" became very popular all around.
In 1999, Montaner recorded his best album ever with his past hits decorated with the strings of the London Metropolitan Orchestra. This proved to be very successful and sold over 1 million copies. Ricardo made another attempt in 2001 with Sue帽o Repetido that included the bolero style song "B茅same" arranged by Bebu Silvetti which became a hit all over the world. Future works with Juan Carlos Calder贸n, Kike Santander and Silvetti would be the key for Ricardo to move his songs and popularity to another level in 2002, 2003 and 2004.
2002's Suma (Bolero style songs) and 2003's Prohibido Olvidar (balada pop) had fair results in terms of sales and acceptance. "Si Tuviera Que Elegir" in Suma was written for his daughter. In 2003 he broke the record for the most concerts on a same tour in the theater of Bellas Artes in Puerto Rico. He sold out 18 concerts breaking his past record of 12, which also held it Yolandita Monge and Ricardo Arjona.
In 2004, he made another album with the London Metropolitan Orchestra named Con La London Metropolitan Orchestra Vol. 2 featuring his latest hits songs and two exclusive songs such as "Desesperado" and "Esta Escrito". In 2005, Montaner launched Todo y Nada which featured the songs "Cuando a mi Lado Estas" and "Nada". For this album he's already nominated in the Latin Grammys with album and song of the year for "Cuando a mi Lado Estas". "Amarte es mi Pecado" and "Heridas de Amor" are non-album songs that have been chosen to be the theme songs on two very popular Mexican soap operas and that much popular have become these songs.
In 2007, Ricardo released Las Mejores Canciones Del Mundo produced by Adrian Posse with the songs "Hoy Tengo Ganas De Ti", "Nostalgias (Argen Version)", "脡chame A M铆 La Culpa (Artista Invitado: Juanes)".
In 2008, he released Las Mejores Canciones Del Mundo II - Y Algunas M铆as...! with the songs "Cuando Un Amigo Se Va", "Ansiedad", "B茅same (Featuring Pasi贸n Vega)".
Ricardo Montaner has sold over 22 million albums, and keeps breaking records in arenas and theaters all over the world.

Ricardo Montaner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Este hombre se confiesa
Enamorado en honor
De una sola mujer
Y va hilvanando ilusi贸n
Con realidad
Yo quisiera dejarte
Mi obra maestra, mi sinfon铆a
O mi peque帽a canci贸n
Que no llega a poes铆a
Que te baste mi voz
Mi sol que vuela en fiebre
Tu luna se descalza
Sum茅rgeme en tu piel
Que el v茅rtigo me hace bien
Guarece tu temporal
Al lado m铆o
En este adagio al amor
Yo quisiera dejarte
Mi obra maestra, mi sinfon铆a
O mi peque帽a canci贸n
Que no llega a poes铆a
Que te baste mi voz
En un intento simple
Este hombre se confiesa
Enamorado en honor
De una sola mujer
Y va hilvanando ilusi贸n
Con realidad
Sum茅rgeme en tu piel
Que el v茅rtigo me hace bien
Guarece tu temporal al lado m铆o
The lyrics to Ricardo Montaner's song "Borrame" express an attempt by a man to confess his love for a woman. He professes his love for her, declaring that he is in love with only one woman, and he begins to weave dreams with reality. He offers his masterpiece, his symphony, or even his small song that does not reach the level of poetry, but which he hopes will suffice. The man seeks to be with the woman and feels a sense of longing to immerse himself in her skin. The vertigo makes him feel alive, and he wants to be next to her to find shelter from the storm of life.
The repeated use of the phrase "En este adagio al amor" is significant; an adagio is a musical term that refers to a slow, graceful, and elegant tempo. Thus, the man is trying to express that he wants to slow down, savor the moment, and enjoy the fullness of love. He wishes to share his masterpiece, whatever it may be, and that it will be sufficient for his beloved. He desires to be swept into her embrace and for her, she can find solace in his arms.
In summary, the song "Borrame" by Ricardo Montaner is a passionate love song that seeks to express the desire of a man's heart to share his love with a woman. He longs to be close to her and to offer her his masterpiece, his symphony, or even his small song that does not reach the level of poetry, but which he hopes will suffice. The song is characterized by its slow, steady, and contemplative pace in the adagio tempo.
