Remember Me

"Remember Me" is a key song from the Disney/Pixar film Coco. The song is sung in two different styles during the film: the original version a lullaby sung by Héctor in a flashback, his great-great grandson Miguel to Mamá Coco near the film's ending and Custard in a Save-Ums/UTAU cover, and the second in ranchero-style (a homage to the Mexican Corrido style folk ballad of the twenties and thirties) sung by Ernesto de la Cruz. An extended version is in a duet style performed by Miguel and Natalia Lafourcade during the film's end credits.

Lyrics
Remember me Though I have to say goodbye Remember me Don't let it make you cry For even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart

Remember me Though I have to travel far Remember me Each time you hear a sad guitar Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be Until you're in my arms again Remember me

Trivia

 * Ironically, "Remember Me" became Ernesto's most famous song after stealing it from Héctor, but it also ended up being his final song as he was crushed by a falling bell while finishing it with a high note. Also, on a macabrely humourous note, Ernesto's version on the soundtrack is the exact same one from the film, right up to and including the moment where the bell crushes him.
