Editor's note

Camilo Sesto, the Spanish voice of heartbreak

A Spanish singer whose emotive ballads like 'Vivir Así Es Morir de Amor' defined a generation.

For the full sweep, start with 'Vivir Así Es Morir de Amor'. Then try 'Todo Ha Sido Un Sueño' to hear that voice in a quieter key.

Camilo Sesto's music captured raw emotion with a clarity that resonated far beyond Spain. Songs like 'Piel de Angel' and his signature 1975 ballad 'Vivir Así Es Morir de Amor' turned personal ache into universal anthems. He sold millions of records, earning platinum and diamond certifications, and his voice became a touchstone for Spanish-language pop.

He broke through in 1970 with the album 'Algo de Mí'. Over decades, he released more than 40 studio albums, working with artists like Miguel Bosé and Lani Hall. His career unfolded alongside public personal struggles, but he kept recording until his death in 2019.
