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.
Ser
Ricardo Montaner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Porqué la circunstancia me obligó
A ser un astro oscuro sin control
O el simple trapecista de la feria
Será que en las esquinas caeré
Y que al contarme a diez me vencerá
La angustia y l aimpaciencia, en donde esta la ciencia
Soy un cero a la mitad
Soy la mínima expresión de un ser humano
Me reduje a la mitad, sólo a la mitad
De un ser, sin razón de ser
Soy un cero a la mitad
Y ya no encuentro en mí, ningún sentido
Me reduje a la mitad, sólo a la mitad
De un ser, sin razón de ser
Será que la corriente me llevó
Y que me condenaste a no ser yo
Será que me rompiste, el alma de un soplido
Y que ando boca abierta, buscando respirar
Soy un cero a la mitad
Soy la mínima expresión de un ser humano
Me reduje a la mitad, sólo a la mitad
De un ser, sin razón de ser
Soy un cero a la mitad
Y ya no encuentro en mí, ningún sentido
Me reduje a la mitad, sólo a la mitad
De un ser, sin razón de ser
In Ricardo Montaner's song "Ser," the lyrics speak of a feeling of being lost and reduced to half of a person. The singer questions whether they are a crazy person without a purpose or whether their circumstances have forced them to be an uncontrolled celestial body or a mere circus performer. The singer's anxiety and impatience about their situation is highlighted, wondering where the science is in dedicating so much love to another person. The singer is a diminished version of themselves, reduced to only half of a person without any sense of purpose, searching for a reason to live.
The lyrics seem to convey a sense of hopelessness and confusion that comes from being stuck in a situation that feels out of control. The use of imagery like being reduced to a mere fraction or being a circus performer emphasizes the feeling of being powerless or insignificant. The lines "Me reduje a la mitad, sólo a la mitad/ De un ser, sin razón de ser" are particularly poignant in expressing the singer's sense of being lost and disconnected from their own life.

Y que ando boca abierta, buscando respirar
And now I walk with my mouth open, seeking breath

SERA
Y me quede soñando con la ilusión a cuestas
Con la esperanza guardada en el bolsillo roto de un pantalón
En el baul sin fondo de mis decepciones
Aletargado en el tiempo, obsesionado con verte
Se enrojecieron mis ojos, se marchitaba mi mente
Será que aun no se llenaba la luna
Será que el tiempo fue menguando nuestras ganas
Será Sera Sera Sera la luna
Será Será Sera, Serán las ganas sera
Y me quede en suspenso con una historia breve
En los niveles mas bajos de mis latidos del corazón
Entre lo inverosímil de mis frustraciones
Aletargado en el tiempo obsesionado con verte
Se enrojecieron mis ojos se marchitaba mi mente
Será que aun no se llenaba la luna
Será que el tiempo fue menguando nuestras ganas
Será sera sera sera la luna
Será sera seran las ganas sera
