No Te Va Gustar and Julieta Venegas: “Chau” (Live) (2019)
No Te Va Gustar (“You Won’t Like It”) might be the best band name of all time.
On the occasion of the Uruguayan band’s 25th anniversary they released Otras Canciones, an intimate, acoustic-leaning live performance album remixing their past material with help from plenty of guest stars.
“Chau”, featuring Latin pop legend Julieta Venegas, was a single that preceded the album’s release.
Don’t pass up the video. These guys are tight, the arrangement is punchy, and it’s a joy to watch pros like them and Venegas nail this live performance.
You will like it.
Lyric translation:
We were both looking at the sea
When the afternoon died
How our thing died I swear I didn’t know
I looked to my right
I saw you disappear
I screamed with all my might
And I noticed you couldn’t hear me
I stayed all night in the sand
I tried to make something worthwhile
I can’t get, change, or correct
What runs in my veins
Heart
Today don’t stop beating
You walked away one day
Now, you decided to come
It’s been more than a year and you’re not there
I would have given my life and so much more
Just to see you again
I couldn’t afford
to give in to your crying
I’m not going to open the wounds
Of having loved you so much
I listened, but I let it go
I remembered, how free I was
I can’t get, change, or correct
What runs in my veins
Heart
Today don’t stop beating
You walked away one day
Now, you decided to come
Heart
Today don’t stop beating
You walked away one day
And now, you decided to come
Heart
You walked away one day
Heart
You walked away one day
Heart
Bye
