  • "Puerto Pollensa" is a song written by Argentine singer-songwriter and actress Marilina Ross, first recorded and popularized by singer Sandra Mihanovich, who released it as a single in 1981 and later included it in her album of the same name, released in June 1982 on MICSA, a subsidiary of label Microfón. The lyrics of the song are autobiographical and tell a love affair that Marilina Ross had on the beaches of Puerto Pollensa, a town north of Mallorca in the Balearic Islands. The ban on music in English imposed by the dictatorship during the Falklands War in 1982 greatly benefited the careers of Argentine popular musicians, among them Mihanovich and Ross. "Puerto Pollensa" received a lot of radio airplay and was a commercial success, reaching number one on Cashbox's Argentine single's chart in July 1982. This context also allowed Ross to sign a record deal with Discos CBS and release the album Soles that year, which included her own rendition of "Puerto Pollensa". Nevertheless, the dictatorship still prevented her from promoting the album on television or on public radio. "Puerto Pollensa" is regarded as a quintessential gay anthem in Argentina and an icon of 1980s lesbian culture. (en)

  • "The success of 'Puerto Pollensa' lies in the fact that it is a very well told love song and many people felt represented beyond their sexual orientation. I always stayed out of the activist issues and sang what I wanted. My private life had a low profile and I find it wonderful that the songs have their own flight." (en)
