Alejandro Sanz tells how he learned to manage his time to be happy: “I spent 16 hours a day in the studio and there was no end” | People

“What I learned to do in these last months, which I think I really needed, was to reconcile my personal life well with my professional life,” Alejandro Sanz said Thursday in The revolt. The Madrid singer visited David Broncano’s program for the second time this year on the occasion of the launch of the second part of his album And now?which will be published on Friday 21 November.

Sanz, who added two Latin Grammys to his sprawling record on Nov. 14, dedicated part of his interview to explaining how he’s managed to best manage his time. “What I’ve done all my life is dedicate 100% of my five senses to work and music, which I love, and it’s something that’s part of me, but it’s also true that I spent 16 hours a day in the studio and there was no end, and then I went on tour.” The artist assured that until he managed to combine these two fields and balance them, he had not been “completely happy” and had not been able to enjoy it so much. “I probably work a lot better now, working fewer hours and also focusing on my life,” he said.

Just over two years ago, Sanz worried his fans after posting a message on his social media in which he said he wasn’t well and felt “sad and tired”. “I’m not well. I don’t know if this can do anything, but I want to say it. I’m sad and tired”, he began; “In case anyone else thinks you always have to be an ocean breeze or a firework on a summer night. I’m working on making it go away… I’ll get on stage and something inside will tell me what to do. But sometimes I don’t even want to be there. Literally. Just to be honest. To not get into the unnecessary noise. I know there are people who feel that way. If it helps, I feel the same way.” The artist’s message sparked many responses of gratitude for having made visible, from his position, such an important issue as talking publicly about mental health.

Shortly after that setback, he resumed his tour and sent a message of gratitude for the support to the people: “These days I have received a lot of love in different ways and I am very grateful for everyone. I had a strong epidemic this weekend and although the light has not come yet, it feels like a firefly has awakened in my chest. I don’t want to suspend the tour because I believe that with the right help and a little understanding and support in the shows We will carry it forward. Also, I think locking myself away is not a good idea. Thanks for the warmth. Let’s go for tomorrow. “The sun is coming.”

In 2026 Alejandro Sanz, who is currently in a relationship with actress Candela Márquez, will tour Spain and offer 11 concerts in a tour starting on June 6 in Seville.
