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.

Ya Lo Se Que Tu Te Vas
Vicente Fernández Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
sabiendo que mañana ya te vas de mi
te juro mi vida que pensando en lo nuestro
me pase la noche casi sin dormir
Ya lo se que tu te vas, que quiza no volveras
que muy tristes hoy seran mis mañana sin te vas
hasta cuando volveras a mis brazos, no lo se
Ya lo se mi amor, que te vas, te vas
que ha llegado la hora de decirnos adios
te deceo buena suerte, hasta nunca mi amor
adios amor, adios amor, adios amor
Ya lo se que tu te vas, que quiza no volveras
que muy tristes hoy seran mis mañas si te vas
The lyrics of Vicente Fernández's song "Ya Lo Se Que Tu Te Vas" talk about the sadness and pain of a person who has just found out that their loved one is leaving them. The sorrowful tone of the lyrics is evident from the first line, where the singer expresses how sad he feels when he wakes up. As the song progresses, he confesses to his loved one that he knows she is leaving and may never come back. He spends the night thinking about their relationship and the memories they have shared, unable to sleep.
In the chorus, the singer emphasizes the uncertainty and loss that he feels with the repeated line, "Ya lo se que tu te vas" (I already know that you are leaving). He wonders how long it will be until she returns, or if she will ever return. He feels as though he may lose her forever, and the weight of this sadness is encapsulated in the repetition of the phrase, "adios amor" (goodbye love).
The song is a classic example of Vicente Fernández's emotive style of singing, which has made him one of the most beloved and influential Mexican artists of all time. The song is a melancholic ballad that showcases his distinctive voice and passionate delivery. The combination of the lyrics and Fernández's powerful singing creates a heart-rending experience that resonates with listeners.

Buenas noches!!!! Que Dios te Bendiga siempre y te dé la Fortaleza y Resignación que Tú necesitas por tu gran dolor , yo te puedo entender un poco pues también perdí a mi Padre hace más de 27 años, un MALDITO cáncer se lo llevó. Mi Papá era Músico y cantaba estas canciones y cuando las escucho y me acuerdo de él se me ruedan las Lágrimas ; en este momento estaba viendo y escuchando este video de la canción: Ya lo sé que Tú te vas y no pude contener las Lágrimas, pues las 2 últimas semanas de vida de mi Papá fueron muy tristes y dolorosas porque su dolor era tan fuerte que la Morfina no le llegaba y él le suplicaba a Dios que lo dejara morir , por favor les pido me perdonen pero no me siento bien, que Dios les Bendiga , Cuide , Acompañe y Proteja siempre “ buenas noches ".
