Mana

I feel guilty that I have not yet posted anything concerning music in Spanish. Am I crazy?? Quite possibly. One of my favorite bands that sing in Spanish is Mana, which is something like soft rock. A song that I absolutely love that they sing is El Reloj Cucu. What I like about this song the most is that it talks about a real life issue that occurs throughout the world. It talks about him as a little kid and remembering when his father left them for good. He was raised by his mom and he talks about the sorrow that they endured as a family. I can relate and that is why I guess I enjoy this song very much. I reccomend that someone listen to Mana, I'm sure you'll like it, it's easy listening. I posted the lyrics. Mana is a Mexican rock group from Guadalajara, Jalisco and was first brought together in the 1980s. Ask me and I'll tell you more...:)




El relojito cucu sonaba
Papá besó mi frente
Me dijo buenas noches hijito
Y me apagó la luz
Oye cucú papá se fué
Prende la luz
Que tengo miedo
Oye cucú papá se fué
Prende la luz
Y apaga el tiempo
Esta canción de amor
Va para mi papáS
e escapó al viento
Nos dejó solitos
Esta canción de amor
Va para mi mamá
Que aguantó todito
Le dolió hasta el hueso
Es por eso que mamá
Lloraba en silencio
Lloraba en las noches
Y como aguantó por las mañanas
Oye cucú papá se fué....
