Besame Mucho (ver. 1) by Carlos Velazquez - Piano Sheets and Free Sheet Music

"Bésame Mucho" is a Spanish language song written in 1940 by Mexican Consuelo Velázquez before her sixteenth birthday. According to Velázquez herself[1], she wrote this song even though she had never been kissed yet at the time, and kissing as she heard was considered a sin. She was inspired by the aria "Quejas, o la Maja y el Ruiseñor" from the Spanish 1916 opera Goyescas by Enrique Granados. [1] The lyrics were translated into english by Sunny Skylar. The phrase "bésame mucho" can be translated into English as "kiss me a lot". Emilio Tuero was the first to record the song. It is believed by some sources[who?] to be the most recorded song of all time.[citation needed] The composition has been used on the soundtrack of numerous films including Great Expectations, A toda máquina, Moon Over Parador, Arizona Dream, Moscow Does Not Believe In Tears, The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear, In Good Company, Paid, Juno, Mona Lisa Smile, Mivtza Savta, and Ljubav i drugi zločini. The Beatles recorded this song for their audition with Decca Records. A later recording of the song, recorded at Abbey Road, was released on Anthology 1 as part of The Beatles Anthology album series.    Download this sheet!
