Jeanette

Jeanette is a Spanish singer who started singing in the 1968s and has been singing ever since :)

The start of my fascination with Jeanette started when I was sent a meme on discord showcasing some kittens crying it was the first time I truly listened to her. I was captivated by her soft and tender voice.

El Muchacho de los Ojos Tristes being one of the first of her songs that i’ve heard of her will always have a special place in my heart but my top 3 songs of hers would be:

• 1.Comiénzame a vivir
• 2.Palabras, promesas
• 3.Amiga mia

“Comiénzame a vivir” has such a beautiful melody and it tickles my ears in all the right ways. Same thing with “Palabras, promesas”, I heartily enjoyed that one as the melody was on point as they are with all her songs. Amiga mia got me in the feels, as a person who steals their friend’s lover with all the confusing feelings of morality and denying love. I find it a beautiful way to touch on such topics.

An honorable mention is “Daría Cualquier Cosa” . I thoroughly enjoyed the xylophone bits, as of writing this article I have not listened to all of her songs but I am making my way steadily through her discography. Her producers did a phenomenal job with the melodies. 100 cookies for them. I ADORE the fade ins and outs. I think her songs with Pic-Nic were pretty cool but it's amazing to see her go solo.

I would play this to wind down before bed if given the chance. But I highly recommend her work to anyone who likes listening to 1960-1980s rock as that is her genre.

I am not fluent in spanish at all. But I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed her songs. A big goal of mine is to attend her concert , soo see y'all there in 2025!
