Next Tuesday, April 26, Diego Verdaguer would have turned 71 years old, unfortunately he lost his life at the beginning of 2022 after suffering complications in his health resulting from a contagion of COVID-19. For that reason, Ana Victoria decided to remember her father as she would have liked and chose that special date to release It was you, the last duet that her parents recorded.
Ana Victoria Boccadoro Miguel, the result of the marriage between the Argentinian singers, shared a press release to announce that next week it will reach all platforms You were You, the original song by Ricardo Arjona that was selected by his parents to be performed together because of the love story that features its lyrics.
“A touching song that they both decided to record because it describes the commitment that it means to build a solid couple, like the one they formed for 47 years,” the statement reads.
On this occasion, Humberto Gatica led the production of the song together with Lucas Apestegui, who is considered one of Diego Verdaguer's great friends because of the unconditional support he offered him throughout his career. Ana Victoria also participated as an audio engineer and it was announced that she will be responsible for the upcoming projects to be launched in memory of her father.
In addition to the song, an emotional video clip will be published. So far, more details of the audiovisual production are unknown, however, it is expected that the romantic love story of Amanda Miguel and Diego Verdaguer will be told with the help of images. But that's not all, the interpreter of El me lied will share, on her YouTube channel, an interview where she told some personal and professional anecdotes that she lived with the interpreter during her marriage.
Regarding It was you, Amanda Miguel said that she is very grateful to have done that last project with her husband and confessed that the piece was going to be part of a new album that would be composed of compositions by great artists.
“Life gave me the opportunity to record this beautiful song with my husband, not knowing that it would be the last time we would do it; we were preparing an album with pieces that both transmitted a lot to us, by other authors and composers whom Diego and I admire,” he said in the statement.
He also talked about the complicated process he has faced in recent months since the unexpected departure of whoever was the love of his life.
“This stage has been very painful, all the time I carry it in my mind, in my soul, in my day to day, like the 47 years that we share. I am left with the peace of mind that we forgave each other everything and with the assurance that I was the great love of his life, just as he was for me. I want to meet him again and embrace him... today my grandson Lucca is my engine, but the light I see every morning when I wake up is still Diego,” he added.
