Background notes
Archive material and source history
Manoella Torres and Pedro Infante recorded "Di Que No" together in the early 1950s. The song was written by José Alfredo Jiménez, who was known for his straightforward lyrics about love and heartbreak. Their version became one of the better-known duets from that period in Mexican music.
Manoella Torres was born María Manuela Torres Quiñones in Mexico City in 1926. She sang boleros and rancheras, and her voice had a clear, direct quality that worked well on recordings like "Llegaste Tarde." People sometimes called her "The Nightingale of Latin America," though that kind of nickname was common for singers at the time.
Pedro Infante was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa in 1917. He acted in films and sang rancheras with a warm, unpretentious delivery. By the time he recorded with Torres, he was already popular in Mexico. The two of them didn't make many duets together, but "Di Que No" stuck around.
