When Memories Haunt You at Midnight | Jueves 10 | Maná

Maná is one of the most popular and influential Mexican rock bands of all time, and their song "Jueves 10" is a fan favorite. Released in 2008, the track is part of their album Amar la Tramontana, which marks a new era for the band.
The lyrics of "Jueves 10" are deeply personal and introspective, with lead vocalist Fher Olvera reflecting on his own experiences and emotions. The song's title translates to "Thursdays at 10," which is significant because it was a specific time and day that Olvera would often find himself lost in thought, contemplating life and relationships.
Throughout the song, Olvera weaves together stories of love, loss, and longing, with poignant lyrics that resonate deeply with listeners. The music itself is characterized by Maná's signature blend of rock, pop, and Latin rhythms, featuring soaring guitar solos and a driving beat.
One of the standout aspects of "Jueves 10" is its ability to evoke a sense of nostalgia and wistfulness. Olvera's vocals are infused with a sense of melancholy, as he sings about past loves and memories that can never be recaptured. The song's chorus, "Eres la razón por la que no me dejo ir" ("You're the reason I can't leave"), captures the bittersweet nature of longing and the difficulty of letting go.
Despite being a deeply personal song, "Jueves 10" has become an anthem for many fans, who have connected with its themes of love, heartache, and perseverance. Maná's ability to craft songs that speak to people on a deep level is part of their enduring appeal, and "Jueves 10" is a testament to the band's skill at creating music that resonates with audiences worldwide.
In many ways, "Jueves 10" is a microcosm of Maná's entire discography: it's a song that balances introspection and storytelling with catchy hooks and memorable melodies. As such, it's no surprise that the track has become a fan favorite and a staple of the band's live shows.
