Montaner was born as Héctor Eduardo Reglero Montaner, in Valentín 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 Día. 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 Amé" 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 Niña 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 Último 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 Extrañar", "Déjame Llorar" and "Será".
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 Gómez. But in 1994, Ricardo Montaner wrote and produced all the songs in his album Una Mañana 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 Así 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 Así" 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 Sueño Repetido that included the bolero style song "Bésame" arranged by Bebu Silvetti which became a hit all over the world. Future works with Juan Carlos Calderón, 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)", "Échame A Mí La Culpa (Artista Invitado: Juanes)".
In 2008, he released Las Mejores Canciones Del Mundo II - Y Algunas Mías...! with the songs "Cuando Un Amigo Se Va", "Ansiedad", "Bésame (Featuring Pasión Vega)".
Ricardo Montaner has sold over 22 million albums, and keeps breaking records in arenas and theaters all over the world.
Pasa Todo
Ricardo Montaner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No hay que preocuparse
Ya pasará el cansancio
De la pena que hay ahora
Te pasará el planeta
Se irá acabando el vino
Se acabará la fiesta
Y pasa todo
Se pasan los rumores
Se cambian los amigos
Se irritan los humores
Se pierde la costumbre
De acostumbrar amarnos
Se pasan los amores
Se pasa todo
Se pasará la espera
Te llegará pareja
Al acabar la primavera
Quizá cuando te llegue
No sea tan hermoso
Habrás estado en vano
Calentando motores
Cómo podré, cómo podré, cariño mío
Dar paso firme si camino en el vacio
Si no te tengo el corazón casi no late
Con pálpitos normales
Cómo podré, cómo podré, yo no sé cómo
Si siento un muro que se opone a que yo te ame
Si mi universo, si mi estrella más brillante
Se oculta en el poniente
A veces pasa todo
Se pasa el poco tiempo
Que tienes para darle
A las cosas más sencillas
Luego no te lamentes
Después si no las tienes
Si el tiempo es inclemente
Se pasa todo
Derribaras a alguno
O habrá quien te derribe
Con tal de hacerse un futuro
Y a ti que te interesa
Sin ella no hay historia
Y el mundo nos estorba
Cómo podré, cómo podré, cariño mío
Dar paso firme si camino en el vacio
Si no te tengo el corazón casi no late
Con pálpitos normales
Cómo podré, cómo podré, yo no sé cómo
Si hay un muro que se opone a que yo te ame
Si mi universo, si mi estrella más brillante
Se oculta en el poniente
Cómo podré, cómo podré, cariño mío
Dar paso firme si camino en el vacio
Si no te tengo el corazón casi no late
Con pálpitos normales
The lyrics of "Pasa Todo" by Ricardo Montaner are about the inevitability of change and the passing of time. The song speaks to the idea that everything will pass, both good and bad, and that we shouldn't become too attached to anything or worry too much about anything as a result. The first verse suggests that even the planet will eventually pass, along with all the things we may have become attached to, such as wine or parties.
The chorus emphasizes the passing of everything, from rumors to friendships, to loves that have faded. It suggests that waiting for something to happen is pointless as time passes quickly and we never know what might come our way. The second verse speaks to the difficulty of loving someone when there are obstacles in the way, such as distance or other emotional barriers. The lyrics suggest that even the strongest emotions can be defeated by these obstacles, leaving one feeling empty and alone.
The final verse provides a cautionary note, reminding us that even our own lives can be taken away at any moment, and that we should make the most of the time we have. The song ends on an uncertain note, questioning how we can move forward when faced with so much uncertainty and fear.
Overall, the lyrics of "Pasa Todo" offer a thoughtful meditation on the nature of time and change, reminding us of the need to let go of attachments and appreciate the fleeting moments of life.
