Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song Шаблон:Infobox song "El reloj" (Шаблон:Lit) is a song of the bolero genre, with music and lyrics by Mexican composer and singer Roberto Cantoral, then a member of the Los Tres Caballeros trio.

History

Cantoral composed the song in 1956, in Washington D.C., in front of the Potomac River, at the end of a Los Tres Caballeros tour of the United States. During the tour he had had an affair with one of the girls participating in the show, who was to return to New York the next morning. This love episode, and the presence of a lounge clock during their last meeting, were the events that inspired Cantoral, who would soon turn the relatively trivial episode into the story of a deep love.

Los Tres Caballeros premiered the song in 1957 and it was an immediate success. The following year it was recorded by trio Los Panchos in 1958. Since then, it has been interpreted by countless artists, in several languages. Lines from the song feature in a scene from the biographical film Selena in which Abraham Quintanilla teaches them to his daughter, Selena, by way of introducing her to the Mexican side of her Chicano heritage.
