At the beginning of February 2022, the government of the state of Nuevo León issued a statement announcing the drought emergency in the entity, for which all activities that involved excessive use of water were suspended, even limiting hours in which there would be the vital liquid in the houses.
Given the scarcity of water, the inhabitants of the state have been the target of many jokes and memes, which, like good Mexicans, have taken the situation with a bit of humor. Recently, someone who got on this meme train was the musical group Maná, because in one of their concerts they sang at the top of their lungs “How I wish I could live without water.” This was the reaction of the attendees.
On July 8 and 9, Maná performed on stage at the Banorte stadium in the city of Monterrey, Nuevo León, concerts that were part of his tour Mexico beautiful and dear tourin which they sang their greatest hits in front of thousands of fans.
Among the songs they sang at the top of their lungs was the hit song released in 1992 Live without air. In this single, Fher Olvera, the band’s vocalist, says the phrase “How I wish I could live without water”, which many considered a heavy joke on the part of the singer due to the situation that the inhabitants of Monterrey are currently experiencing.
This verse caused a series of boos and laughter from those present, who were recording the moment on their cell phones and wanted to share it on their social networks, where it soon went viral. In addition, the comments that criticized the part of the song could not be missing.
Then we leave you a short list with the most viral recordings of the moment in which the singer sang “How I would like to live without water”. This is how the public reacted!
