July 13 marked the four-year anniversary of the death of Joan Sebastian, the fabled Mexican singer/songwriter who rose from a poverty-stricken childhood in rural Mexico to become one of the most recorded and top-selling contemporary acts of all time.
Although Sebastian was 64 at the time of this death, which followed his battle with cancer, he had continued to record and perform at a prolific rate. In fact, his last studio album, 2013’sIn memory of Sebastian’s career on the anniversary of his death, here is at a moment in his life when he was newly cancer-free. I recorded a song called “Que Dios Bendiga” which I wasn’t sure what material to pair it up with.
I never write songs for singers. I write for my muses, for the people that inspire me. If others interpret those songs it’s because as a producer and composer I think they work for them. 90 percent of my songs come from my own experiences. I first analyze my feelings, I let them mature and develop inside.
I’ve returned to live three times and all three I’ve fought hard. The hardest moment was the first time, when I gave it too much importance and I sat to wait for the doctors’ orders. That’s when I was closest to death. When I realized that the applause made me better, that my contact with my audience was what made me cling to life, I discovered the most vital aspect of my battle. I honestly think the story would be different if I didn’t have my fans’ support.
It’s my biggest source of work. I do a Jaripeo show every two weeks. Sometimes I’ll do three to four a week. I ride five horses during an hour and a half. The horse is like my best accompaniment. When I’m on a horse, I even feel handsome!
