In 1995, his tribute to Mexico's beloved Trio Los Panchos, Recordando A Los Panchos, earned him considerable acclaim and produced two major hits, "Miseria" and "No, No, Y No."
He owns and primarily lives in a huge ranch named 'Los Tres Potrillos" located between the cities of Guadalajara and Chapala Jalisco, Mexico. It was named after his three sons. It is complete with stables, 2 houses, a lake, high bred horses and a church. During Christmas time thousands of children go to this ranch where hundreds of thousands of dollars in Christmas gifts are given out.
He loves miniature horses and has bred them at his ranch, where he even has some as small as 6 inches.
In 2005, Fernández and his sons, Alejandro and Vicente Jr., made history by becoming the first Latin American singers to appear as cartoons in a video, for Vicente Sr.'s song, Al Mayor de los Fernandez (To the Oldest Fernández), dedicated to Vicente Sr.'s father.
Vicente has been married to Maria del Refugio Abarca Villaseñor since December 27, 1963. He has three sons with her: Vicente Jr, Gerardo, and Alejandro. His fans and the media refer to him as "Chente", a diminutive of his name out of affection but in interviews and events he is also addressed as Don Vicente out of respect. In Mexico he is referred to as "El Rey" (the king) and as "El Charro de Huentitán" (the Charro of Huentitan). His wife is affectionately known as Doña Cuca. Vicente, just like his son Alejandro, is notorious for being a ladies man and is often called a Don Juan. [1]
Vicente was involved in a scandal when it was made public that he had maintained a relation for ten years with Patricia Rivera, whom he met in 1977 while filming "El Arracadas". Years later she declared that her son, Pablo Rodrigo, was a product of that relation and Vicente recognized the son as his, giving him the Fernandez name. Afterwards DNA testing proved that Pablo was not his son.[2]
In 2004, while in concert in Miami's American Airlines Arena, Vicente had to pay $30,000 USD for having gone over the original scheduled time for the concert. He sang for three hours some of his all time hits as well as songs from his then new album "Se Me Hizo Tarde la Vida".[3]
Vicente has a star in Hollywood's Walk of Fame and his ceremony there was attended by over 5,000 people, breaking all previous attendance records.[4]
Vicente retired in 2016 in a massive concert in Estadio Azteca, Mexico city.
He fell from a horse in his rancho in august 2021, causing a rapid decline in his health. Vicente Fernandez, one of the greatest mexicans to ever live, passed away on December 12, 2021, from complications related to his fall.

Amar Y Querer
Vicente Fernández Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
que te amo vida mia
por que no he de decirlo
si tu fundes tu alma
con el alma mia
que importa si despues
me ven llorando un dia
les dire que te quiero
mucho todavia
se vive solamente una vez
hay que aprender a querer y ha vivir
hay que saber que la vida
se aleja y no deja
llorando primaveras
no quiero arrenpentirme despues
de lo que pudo aver sido y no fue
quiero gosar de la vida
teniendote cerca
de mi hasta que muera
The song "Amar Y Querer" by Vicente Fernández is about telling the world about the love and devotion he has for his significant other. He asks himself why he should keep the love he has for her hidden and not express it openly. He believes that their souls have merged together, and that's why he is not afraid to show his love. He doesn't care if one day people see him crying because of his love for her, and if they ask him about it, he will tell them that he still loves her very much. The song also talks about living life to the fullest and not wanting to have any regrets later in life. He wants to enjoy life with his loved one by his side till the end of his life.
The lyrics of the song are meant to convey the message that one should not be afraid to express and show their love to their significant other. It also encourages people to embrace life and not hold back on love or any other human experience. The song has a mix of both melancholy and happy tones, demonstrating that life is a mix of highs and lows, but it's all worth living if one has love in their life.

Letra de la canción
Casi todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
Es que amar y querer no es igual
Amar es sufrir querer es gozar
El que ama pretende servir
El que ama su vida la da
Y el quiere pretende vivir
Y nunca sufrir y nunca sufrir
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da
El que quiere pretender olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Y es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
El amar es el cielo y la luz
Ser amado es total plenitud
Es el mar que no tiene final
Es la gloria y la paz
Es la gloria y la paz
El querer es la carne y la flor
Es buscar el obscuro rincón
Es morder, arañar y besar
Es deseo fugaz, es deseo fugaz
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da
El que quiere pretender olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Y es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da
El que quiere pretender olvidar
Y nunca llorar y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce el final
Y es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
