Mecano was a
Spanish pop band whose debut coincided with
La Movida Madrileña, a sociocultural movement that occurred in
Spain during the 1980s. Although Spanish music critics do not consider the band one of the most representative ensembles of the aforementioned cultural wave, Mecano found more commercial success in the '80s and the early '90s, both in its native country and
Latin America,
France, and
Italy with 25 million worldwide sales.. Most of the lyrics were written by one of the Cano brothers from a male perspective, and were mainly sung by
Ana Torroja in a melodic, childlike voice while preserving that male perspective, which gave the group its distinctive, playful and sexually ambiguous style.
