Music like Jeanette

Janette Anne Dimech (10 October, 1951 in London), who performs under the name Jeanette, is a British-born Catalan-Spanish singer who has resided in Spain since the age of 12, and sings primarily in Spanish. She has also recorded songs in several different languages which include English (her native language), French, Portuguese, German and Japanese. Jeanette has completed seven albums. She has made appearances and duets with artists such as Julio Iglesias, José Luis Perales, Mocedades, Sacha Distel, Raphael, and Formula V.

In 2010, 20 minutos described Jeanette as "a legend of Spanish music and muse of independent pop".

Dimech is the daughter of a father of Maltese descent who lived in the Belgian Congo and a Spanish mother originally from the Canary Islands. Because of her grandparents' import-export business, she was born in London and grew up in Chicago and La Habra, California. After her parents' separation when she was 12, she moved to Barcelona with her mother and younger brother and sister. Having grown up in the United States, she spoke only English when she first moved to Spain. She was placed in an American school at first, but later befriended some local Spanish children who helped teach her Spanish.
