JOSÉ LUIS PERALES - Y COMO ES ÉL | REACTION

[@karenandersen127]

Wow! My daughter’s getting married soon. My husband is having such a hard time. Thank you so much for the song.

[@roblawhorne1015]

Don't know if you're a "Walking Dead" fan. But in season 2, a girls Father talks to a young man who has chosen his Daughter. He says, "No man is good enough... until one is". I hope your Daughter found that man.

[@bobsmimitravel2]

Not for daughter. His girlfriend is leaving him for another guy and he found out. He is telling her how he feels and wants to know what kind of guy she left him for. He wants her to be happy,but at the same time he hates the other guy for stealing her love away from him calling him a thief.

[@mena21721]

This song is so well written that is not ONLY a song for a guy who is in love with a girl. A father could DEFINITELY feel the lyrics and the "sadness" of watching his "little girl" about to get married. And feeling that there's a new man, a new love in his daugther's life

[@TheYayoii]

@@mena21721 he actually wrote it for his daughter tho

[@isabellap9087]

Since living in Los Angeles back in the late 80's I fell in love with latin music. Thanks first to the great East L.A based band Los Lobos. I opened my ears and heart and now, I go into all of it. The music, rhythm, percussion, overall musicianship. Outstanding. So many favorites. Leep bringing it brother.

This my mom’s music!! I’ve been listening to this guy since I was in the womb🤗

[@lunadexelaju3494]

Gahhhhh, love this!!! Jose Luis Perales was such a gift from Spain❤❤❤

[@loryglowmx]

My dad dedicated me this song when I get married. I cry everytime I heard this song❤️

[@dxdux]

Perales said that this song was not for his daughter, in that time she was only 3 years old. In fact this song was originally composed by him for another artist: Julio Iglesias, but after finishing it, his company thought that the song was so good and he should keep it and sing it himself (which he did :D ), he also added that the song was for "adults" whatever that means. He didn't know what was the reason behind the story (the request from Julio)... thanks for the reaction man. (Just to add to the story: Julio Iglesias was going through divorce in the time.. )

[@OZYM1]

I love this song. The first couple of times I heard this song, I thought the song was directed at a wife who had an affair. It turns out Jose Luis Perales dedicated his song to his daughter. After I found out the real point of view, I now get teary eyed every time I hear it. For those who don't speak English, the singer is saying "And how is he? Who is he? He, who has stolen everything from me?," because his daughter is about to get married. It's always been one of my favorite Spanish songs.

[@bobsmimitravel2]

No in an interview he said it was not for a daughter. Porfavor no mal interpreten la cancion!

[@Nico_Smiley16]

It’s actually not about his daughter, thou it might sound like it. José Luis wrote this song for another artist, since his wife was divorcing him to be with someone else. At the end, he didn’t want to sing this song, so José Luis sang it..creating this beautiful masterpiece that became a hit soon after.

[@killabyte79]

I'm latin and i cant tell for sure it has nothing to do with a daughter, where did english spoken people get that idea?

[@c_p_a_r]

@@killabyte79 yes, right? Perceiving these lyrics as directed to a daughter is kind from a twisted sickening mind.

[@MikeHonchoHisself]

@@Nico_Smiley16 he wrote it for his friend and signing giant Julio iglesias. And it wasn’t that he didn’t want it. The record company loved the song so much, they wouldn’t let him sell it. They made him record it himself.

Jose Luis Perales,one of the great singer/songwriters of the 70/80´s. He was from Spain. In Mexico we had Jose Maria Napoleon.

[@markuhlman3767]

I drove 18 wheeler truck for 16 years. One day I rolled into a truck stop. Knowing I was going to be there a while, I turned on my TV. After programming the local channels, I saw that I had picked up a Spanish channel. On it was a music video. There was a guy singing a song (of course...lol). Didnt understand a single word he said (samg) but it was one of the most beautiful songs I'd ever heard. I can now add this song to my list. Great song Jamel...

[@markuhlman3767]

P.S. 8f you'd like to hear another song with similar meaning, try Ty Herndon, "A Man Holding On (To a Woman Letting Go).

[@jessiearmando]

This is the kind of song that most of us Mexicans will not hear for more than 10 years but once we listen to it again , we know all the words ... i'm 57 years old & i've heard this song since i was a child , and sang it many times with my guitar in my 20's . Thx 4 sharing it ,,,

[@R-L-I]

It’s a song about his daughter (his heart) and realizing he’s going to have to let her go because she’s about to get married, that’s why he’s asking “who is he?” etc, he’s coming to terms that’s she’s not a little girl anymore but to him she will always be his daughter.

[@TheChelus]

To me it sounds like the man is letting his lover go to another man

[@CELA-Oficial]

You right, it about his daughter.

[@Caprizonica]

He once said it was about a lover not a daughter. He's the author of the song so he knows best. Another urban myth debunked like the one about Rocio Durcal losing a child.

[@luisretana665]

@@TheChelus No, indeed is about a father letting go to his daughter.

[@bobsmimitravel2]

Definitely not! Its not about a daughter. He found out that his girlfriend is leaving him for another guy. He is telling her how he feels and wants to know about the guy she left him for. Porfavor no lo mal interpreten la cancion!

[@nbanda1000]

I remember as a young girl hearing this song on one of my trips to Mexico. It's such a beautiful, nostalgic song. It wasn't until a few years ago that I discovered who the singer was. He's recorded 27 albums and 50 million copies sold. This is one of those songs that hides in your soul and years later pops up. He was a songwriter way before he began singing. He used to write songs for people like Julio Iglesias, Miguel Bose, Isabel Pantoja, Ricardo Montaner. Marc Anthony is a huge fan and you can find a KZbin video of them singing this song together at the music festival in Viña Del Mar (Chile). This particular song he initially wrote for Julio but he was encouraged to keep the song and sing it himself. So glad he did.

I just read someone's comment and apparently it is about his daughter and the man she's going to marry and it's breaking his heart to let go now that she's all grown up. But I will say this... My mother is Spanish (not Mexican) and Sicilian. European. My father Native-American. What I do know about the Spaniards is... They take to heart very deeply when they have to let their daughters go. And are very deep-hearted, ckose-net family. And Wow!!! You can speak Spanish very well. LoL Awesome!! Awesome Reaction.

Just saw your reaction, loved it.Some years ago Jose Luis Perales said in an interview, that this song was not written for a daughter much less his daughter. At that time his daughter was only 3 years old. Jose Luis Perales is a singer and a composer. He wrote this song for Julio Iglesias, but his company advised him to keep the song and sing it himself. They believed it would be a hit with him singing it. As it proved to be. He ended the discussion of this song by saying it is an adults song. Articles on that interview and others regarding the origin of the song Y Como Es El can be found online. Hope this helps. 🙏🏼

No. It's not about a daughter. It's about him accepting the loss and not making a scene. He loves her so much, he wants to see her happy no matter who might be. It's a very sad song about losing the love of your life and accepting it at the end like a man.
