The death of María Jiménez has been a hard blow for her family, close friends, the world of music and all of Seville, which has to say goodbye to one of its most iconic artists. The singer died last Thursday at the age of 73 in her home in Triana.
Given this, numerous well-known faces have wanted to show the affection they felt towards her by remembering her best moments. Just as she wished in life, her last goodbye was amid applause and singing, as well as a long ride in a horse-drawn carriage through the streets of her city. Given this, Bibiana Fernández wanted to dedicate her particular tribute to him live from her.
The collaborator of The Summer Program wanted to put on the table how much María Jiménez meant to her. "Everything in my life, María has always been present. I liked her way of being, of laughing, of living, of feeling. Life is that or it is nothing," she said emotionally. "First of all, she overcame herself and moved forward," she added.
But the entire set remained silent when Bibiana Fernández wanted to pay tribute to the singer: "I want to dedicate this song to María, with her permission, with respect and with forgiveness." And the chosen theme was With blows in the chest, by Jiménez herself.
"The goodness that I am is running out and the bad things are coming to me inside. I don't know how to kill, but I want to learn to dispel all the evil that you have done to me. And if I become a murderer for you. You will go down through this straight to the hell", Bibiana began to sing with microphone in hand.
"I'm also becoming like you. Like you did in the village church. On your knees you kissed the cross. And crying with beating your chest. And I believed that you were praying for me. Who would have thought that you were praying for me? lying?", he concluded, amid applause from the set and the emotion of Antonio Rossi, a close friend of María Jiménez.
And they are not the only signs of affection that have been given throughout the program. María Jiménez's sister wanted to speak before heading to the Church of Santa Ana. "We are very tired. I have been with her in the hospital for three days and today to say goodbye to her. Totally emotional and a little surprised. I didn't think that "My sister was going to drag everything she has dragged. It has been incredible. She will be enjoying it," he said.
The singer's mortal remains are heading to the San Fernando cemetery, after the ceremony held in the Church of Santa Ana. A mass where there was no shortage of songs, applause and cheers.
