"Besame Mucho" is a beautiful melody, but the best thing about the song is that its title translates into English as "Kiss Me a Lot."

Harry Belafonte later did a cover of this pretty close to Sellers' arrangement.

The Beatles did it in their Hamburg days, I believe. It is definitely the most-covered song ever written by a Mexican composer.
