Career
Jurado began performing flamenco at a very young age, debuting on the big screen in 1962 with Los guerrilleros, acting alongside Manolo Escobar. She also played a main role in 1966's Proceso a una estrella and 1971's Una chica casi decente. While temporarily living in Argentina, the Spanish diva participated in a successful musical called La zapatera prodigiosa, based on Federico García Lorca's work. After teaming with composer Manuel Alejandro, Rocío Jurado became a major and beloved figure on the Latin music scene, acclaimed throughout America and Spain after releasing Muera el amor and Señora, among other hits.
Illness
In 2004, Jurado was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer for which she was treated in Houston, Texas in 2006. In April 2006, she was also treated for acute liver failure in a hospital in Madrid, Spain. On May 26, 2006, Spain's Culture Minister Carmen Calvo announced that Jurado had suffered a stroke, an assertion denied by Jurado's personal physician Dr. Domingo and by her brother and manager Amador Mohedano. She died at 5:15 in the morning on June 1st, 2006, at her home in La Moraleja, Madrid, aged 61. She is buried in her hometown, Chipiona, Cadiz, in the San José Cemetery.
Muera El Amor
Rocío Jurado Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
de tanto usarlo
de tanto loco abrazo
sin medidas
de darnos por completo
a cada paso
se nos quedo en las manos
un buen dia
Se nos rompió el amor
de tan grandioso
jamas pudo existir
tanta belleza
las cosas tan hermosas
duran poco
Jamas duró una flor
dos primaveras
me alimenté de ti
por mucho tiempo
nos devoramos vivos
como fieras
Jamas pensamos nunca en el invierno
pero el invierno llega
aunque no quiera
y una mañana gris
al abrazarnos
sentimos un crujido
frio y seco
cerramos nuestros ojos y pensamos
Se nos rompió el amor
de tanto usarlo.

lyrics
The first verse of this song speaks to the idea that their love fell apart due to how much they used it, as if it was a tangible object. The second line references crazy embraces without restraint, which contributed to the breakage. The couple gave each other everything without holding back, but eventually it slipped away from their grasp one day. The second verse paints their love as awe-inspiring, but too much beauty can be fleeting. The singer laments that nothing beautiful lasts long, not even flowers or two spring seasons. The third verse describes how they devoured each other as passionately as wild animals without ever considering the possibility of winter. But the winter inevitably came, manifested by a gray morning where they felt a frigid, dry crack between them. The song concludes with the chorus repeating that their love was broken from overuse.
This song is a poignant reflection on the fragility of love and how even the strongest passions can slip away over time. It reminds us that we should cherish what we have in the moment because all beautiful things, including love, are fleeting. The lyrics suggest that perhaps the couple didn't take enough care of their relationship, instead giving into their wild impulses without thought of the future.
