The story behind
Como te digo una "co" te digo la "o", according to DoReSol
The song Como te digo una "co" te digo la "o", included in the album 19 días y 500 noches, is an example of how Joaquín Sabina constructed his works. This album, which became one of his best-sellers with half a million copies, was an ambitious project. Its total duration of 74:18 minutes positioned it as his most extensive work up to that point. The production was handled by Alejo Stivel, who was previously part of the band Tequila. The editing was done by BMG Music Spain.
The creation of 19 días y 500 noches involved a recording process that lasted seven months. There were significant negotiations for its release, as the record label initially did not look favorably upon a double album, considering the high price and the lack of familiarity in the Spanish market with this format. Finally, an agreement was reached where the songs that were left out would see the light at another time. The mixing of Como te digo una "co" te digo la "o" was carried out by Brett Rader, while the overall production of the album fell to Enrique Berro García and Alejo Stivel. The specific duration of this song, according to MusicBrainz data, is 8:42.
