El día que me quieras (song)

El día que me quieras (English: The day that you love me) is a tango with music by Carlos Gardel and lyrics by Alfredo Le Pera. Originally featured in the 1935 film of the same name, sung by Gardel himself, it became a heavily recorded tango standard, even by artists outside of the realm of tango. It has subsequently been covered by various artists such as Luis Miguel, Julio Iglesias,[1] Michael Bolton[2] Roberto Carlos and Raphael de España. The song was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001.[3] "El día que me quieras" was honored at the 2014 La Musa Awards as "La Canción de Todos los Tiempos" ("The Song of All Times").[4] It was among the tango standards selected by Plácido Domingo for his 1981 album Plácido Domingo Sings Tangos. In addition to Domingo, the song has been covered by operatic tenors including José Carreras,[5] Juan Diego Florez[6], Christian Ketter[7], and Alfredo Kraus.[8]

Gloria Estefan has written and recorded the first-ever English translation of the song ("The Day You Say You Love Me") for her 2013 album The Standards. “It was the wedding song that Emilio and I danced to!” she relates. “I wanted to record it. It was never done in English, and I wanted it to be as close to the author's version as possible and I was so inspired. Before we started doing the record, I wrote the translation. It’s always nice when you can write a standard!”[10] Some editions of Estefan's album also include a cover with the original Spanish lyrics.

gollark: 3 tokens, right now, I can fiddle with that.
gollark: 0.4% false positive rate, which is probably fine.
gollark: No, it's "this term/nearby term pair probably existed in the document".
gollark: If someone looks up "bee deployment methodology", then it needs to be able to search for those words together and not just a document containing "bee", "deployment" and "methodology".
