The figures, by themselves, do not always say everything. But there are some who are overwhelming. And today, Monday, August 11, they remember Gustavo Cerati, the day I was 66 years old (He was born in 1959).
It is clear to say that he is one of the most influential artists of Argentinian music. And also that its inheritance, far from going out, continues to grow every day.
At the head of the Soda stereo (next to Zeta Bosio and Charly Alberti), Cerati has revolutionized Latin American rock With albums such as “Signs”, “Double Life” and “Animal Song”.
But after the dissolution of the group, it is also true that Gustavo reinvented himself and embodied his talent in new albums such as “Yellow Love”, “Smaling”, “It’s always today”, “Here We Go” and “Natural Force” which have become key works of Argentinian rock.
What’s going on today? There is no doubt that his death (September 4, 2014) caused a lot of pain among his fans. However, this pain has improved fanaticism. And it must be said that Cerati currently exceeds 5 million monthly listeners on platforms.
Classics such as “crime”, “goodbye” and “bridge”, for example, accumulate hundreds of millions of views. And Soda Stereo continues with more than 10 million listeners and remains one of the most listened to the country.
Another important fact? 22% of those who listen to it are between 18 and 24 years old, proof that their music continues to conquer new audiences.
Therefore, there is no doubt that for its 66th anniversary, Cerati’s work continues to ring with the same intensity.
