"Bésame mucho" ("Kiss me a lot") is a song written in 1940 by Mexican songwriter Consuelo Velázquez. A famous 1956 version is sung by Trio Los Panchos and female vocalist Gigliola Cinquetti. An English lyric was written by Sunny Skylar.

It is one of the most famous boleros, and was recognized in 1999 as the most sung and recorded Mexican song in the world.

According to Velázquez herself, she wrote this song even though she had never been kissed yet at the time, and kissing, as she heard, was considered a sin.

Keith Wallin: onefortheroad Aww Kels, you say the nicest things....lol Toni and I were discussing my music and she asked me if I ever sang any opera. I told her I sang a tune by an Italian opera singer, Andrea Bocelli and she said Okay, bring it! Glad you enjoyed this one. I only do 2 Spanish songs and now you have heard both of them....lol Enjoy the rest of your evening...:-)
