En El Muelle De San Blás
"En el muelle de San Blas" (English: "At the pier of San Blas") is the fourth radio single and eighth track off of Maná's fifth studio album, ''Sueños Líquidos'' (1997). In the week of May 23, 1998, the song debuted and reached number eighteen on the U.S. Billboard Hot Latin Tracks. It stayed for a total of six weeks. The song was inspired by Rebeca Méndez Jiménez, a woman in Nayarit, Mexico. In 1971 she said goodbye to her fiancé Manuel, a foreign fisherman she was set to marry four days later. As he was returning from his fishing trip, the storm Priscilla struck the area, possibly killing him, though his body was never found. Rebeca Méndez Jiménez waited for him for 41 years (1971–2012) at the pier of San Blas. She was nicknamed the “Loca del Muelle de San Blas” by the locals because she often dressed as a bride.

Songs Written By Alex González (musician)
A song is a musical composition performed by the human voice. The voice often carries the melody (a series of distinct and fixed pitches) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs have a structure, such as the common ABA form, and are usually made of sections that are repeated or performed with variation later. A song without instruments is said to be a cappella. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in the classical tradition, it is called an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally by ear are often referred to as folk songs. Songs composed for the mass market, designed to be sung by professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows, are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are ...

The 1971 Pacific hurricane season began on May 15, 1971 in the eastern Pacific (east of 140th meridian west, 140°W), and on June 1, 1971 in the Central Pacific (from 140°W to the International Date Line); both ended on November 30, 1971. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period in each year when most tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific. It was the first year that continuous Weather satellite coverage existed over the entire Central Pacific. As such, this season is often viewed as the start year for modern reliable tropical cyclone data in the Pacific Ocean.
