Mexico Mourns Maestro Armando Manzanero, Lost To Covid Aged 86 By Natalia Cano 12/28/20 AT 11:22 PM Mexican singer-songwriter Armando Manzanero died Monday at the age of 86 after being hospitalized with the coronavirus, sparking an outpouring of tributes for one of the country's best-loved musicians.

His lyrics, some of them translated into English, have also been sung by international stars including Frank Sinatra, Christina Aguilera, Andrea Bocelli and Elvis Presley.
