Nacho Cano explains the reason why Mecano will not return

There was a lot of anticipation to see this week my house is yoursespecially among the nostalgic who lived through the great times of Meccano and they have always been left wanting more. Nacho Cano he immersed himself in those times to review what the group was.

The breeding ground was at home with his father singing flamenco. He hired a private teacher who didn’t take advantage of it, but his children did. He always encouraged them. The one who wasn’t so sure was his mother.

“At that time, music was for low-life people and we were in the Jesuits. My father had more artistic sensitivity, he asked for a loan to buy me my first piano. I told him that it was the best investment in his life, and he was “, he told about those beginnings at home.

The brothers began to consider forming a group and invited Ana Torroja. The only one who was always clear about dedicating himself to music, according to Nacho, was him. In the end he got it and dragged the other two.

hard beginnings

“By the time we were already a group. Capi perceived that the energy of the three of them together was powerful.. In the companies they told us that the trios did not sell “, he recounted about his first steps in the industry. But that did not stop them.

“We signed a contract that was a single in five years. Mecano came out, we did a promotional day in Madrid, because the company did not trust us, and we saw each other at home, our career was over. My brother and I ask my father for money to buy a hundred records at the factory to call the stations,” he tells of his desire for him to get ahead.

In the end they succeeded and became the most important group in Spanish at the moment. And when they were at the top, it was all over. “After 12 or 13 very intense years we made a break in our career, but I did not think that this was the end of Mecano”, Nacho admits. It was his brother who, unexpectedly, unilaterally announced that the group was disbanding.

Mechano’s return

According to Nacho, The one who lost out was Ana who ran out of songs because the brothers had composed them all. And since then, there are many who continue to hope that one day the group will meet again. Nacho is clear.

“I don’t think Mecano will return because the life of each one has taken different paths and because that was what it was, as it was, in a context that was what it was. It turned out very well in the musical sense, apart from the jabbering that many like to air. I prefer the songs because we were transmitters of emotions and there it continues. We were able to open the Spanish market to the entire world. we were able to do Europe or the United States, which, at that time, was an achievement ”, he expressed.

“Your work, energy and vibration must remain in the memory of the people. It’s not coming back because it’s never gone and what we will not return to is to get together the three of us because we are heavy and pain in the ass. And we are not English, because the English agree and we do not”, ended up settling the issue.

So no, we will continue listening to the old Mecano songs that will be the only ones.
