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.

Caminemos
Vicente Fernández Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Es preferible olvidar que sufrir
No, no concibo que todo acabó
Que este sueño de amor terminó
Que la vida nos separó
Sin querer, caminemos
Tal vez nos veremos después
Sigo insistiendo en tu amor que se perdió en la nada
Y vivo caminando sin saber
Dónde llegar, tal vez
Caminando la vida nos vuelva a juntar
No, no, no
No, ya no debo pensar que te amé
Es preferible olvidar que sufrir
No, no concibo que todo acabó
Que este sueño de amor terminó
Que la vida nos separó
Sin querer, caminemos
Tal vez nos veremos
Después
The lyrics of Vicente Fernández's song "Caminemos" express the pain of a love that has ended, but the hope of the possibility of reuniting in the future. The singer begins by acknowledging that he should no longer think about loving the person who has left him, and it is better to forget and avoid suffering. He cannot believe that their love has ended and that they are separated due to the course of life. Despite this, he suggests that they should walk together, without wanting to be seen, as there might be a chance that they meet again in the future.
The lyrics show a bittersweet feeling of holding onto hope for what is lost, and the acceptance of letting go. The singer is aware of the reality of the situation, but still, he cannot help but cling to the possibility of rekindling their love again. He is lost in his walk through life, unsure of his destination, but with the desire to meet his love once more.
