Шаблон:Infobox song "Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar" (Spanish for "Today I Can't Wake Up") is the debut single by Spanish band Mecano released in June 1981. The song is from their 1982 self-titled debut album.

Composition

Mecano member Nacho Cano was trying to write a song for the record since his brother José María Cano had written all the songs. By 27 May 2015, Nacho Cano told periodist Ismael Cala for CNN en Español that the lyrics of the song came as a result of a hangover due to a party the day before. Cano also added that it was then that he discovered that creativity comes from everyday experiences.[1]

Release

The original 7-inch release of the song came with a B-side called "Quiero Vivir En La Ciudad". Despite its resonance in radio, the song was not included on the debut album until the 2005 rerelease,[2] where it appears as a bonus track.

"Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar" instantly became a hit in Spain, where it sold over 100,000 copies between 1981 and 1982.[3]

A mistake in the printing of the 7-inch single release occurred in which the date of the song release was dated as 1980, one year earlier than the original.[4]
