Más de cien mentiras

The song Más de cien mentiras stands out for its intense narrative and its ability to tell a story of revenge and redemption. In it, Joaquín Sabina introduces 'el Tuli', a character who returns to life in freedom after three years in prison, determined to settle scores with Fernando Villegas, the man responsible for his imprisonment and the death of his friend Samuel. This tale unfolds in a context of betrayals and dark schemes, where the emotions and decisions of the characters intertwine in a complex manner. The music accompanies this plot, creating an atmosphere that reflects the tension and desire for vengeance that defines 'el Tuli'.

The song is part of the album Esta boca es mía, released in 1994, which marked a crucial moment in Sabina's career. Although the album did not achieve the same popularity as its predecessor, Física y química, it managed to capture the public's attention with several of its tracks. The idea of adapting this song into a musical emerged in 2006, though it was initially rejected by Sabina himself. However, three years later, the singer-songwriter changed his mind and decided to collaborate on the project, which premiered in 2011 at the Teatro Rialto in Madrid. This musical not only revives the story of Más de cien mentiras, but also explores the lives of its characters through a series of songs that enrich the plot and make it even more captivating.
