Everything in music| GIVEAWAY #36- WIN 20000 STARBITS DAILY

In the fall of 1978, a Spanish singer with a career and a surname arrived with a special song on his shoulders. Patrick Hernández, a French civil servant, gave birth to Born to Live and the world considered him the prodigal son. The disco song reached number one in almost every country in the world the following year, during which time the single sold almost 1,500,000 copies and earned 52 gold records.

Needless to say, it is one of the most danceable compositions for generations due to its impressive and unique style that surprises with its innovation. Thirty-five years later, "Born to Live" still remains in disco history and its disappearance is largely due to its subsequent releases. Hernández arrived just as the Eurodisco genre was in its final stages and, like the phoenix, the dance floor rose from the ashes.

But Hernández had to go a long way to achieve fame and recognition. His musical proposals were not well received in his native France, where the market was still focused on chanson production. Because of this, he had difficulty finding a manager, a producer, or even a record label. It was the Italian Jean Vanlou who believed in him and brought the song to the Belgian pitcher. The impact was immediate and quickly captured the attention of the Anglo-Saxon market.

The new combination of producers Tom Hayden and Mike Stewart brings Born to Live to the United States in its largest, expanded version. At that time it became a timeless classic. Even today, it is common to find it on audio-only compilations that fill theme radio stations and nightclubs.

Its success in Spain was greatly influenced by Spanish television, which chose the song as the theme for its cycling tour programme, a sporting event that attracted a large audience at the time. As he pedaled, his music became deeply ingrained in the brain of every cycling fan and spectator. In the discotheque people danced to songs that imitated walking on two wheels. "Born to Live" was also widely used in aerobics classes, a gymnastics formula that began to be developed on the peninsula thanks to line 625 and the presenter Eva Nasarre, who popularized the discipline.

Hernández has sold 25 million copies of Born to Live since its publication in 1979, for which he continues to receive generous compensation to this day. In an interview with the gossip magazine Gala, the singer explained: "When I wake up in the morning, that day I will earn between 800 and 1,500 euros." And he added that this amount would increase significantly if, for example, a major brand used his song in an advertising campaign.
