The most successful Latin American songwriter of the 20th century, Juan Gabriel wrote over 1,800 songs including Amor Eterno and Hasta que te Conocí and performed them with an outrageously camp, gender-fluid theatrical style that was revolutionary in the machismo context of Mexican popular culture. His death in 2016 prompted three days of national mourning and the simultaneous release of a posthumous album that debuted at number one in 12 countries.
