 Abriendo Puertas » Lyrics [+ Cuir +] |
1. _ La Parranda (the Big Party)
This song blends a high energy array of grooves such as colobian "chande" with venezuelen "tambores" and an insidious rythmic pattern from a typical snare drum section there
Sudden appearance of "bata" drums along with a happy trumpet solo, and choruses that explode into a thick unison of voices resembling a big party.
This is a "party" song, where everything is magical, happy, and exhiliarating. it says "this night is far from being over, we are going to have fun until the sun comes up".
Van llegando
They are arriving
La fiesta va a comenzar
The party is about to begin
Esta noche la parranda
Tonight is the big party
No tiene como acabar
It has no end
Ya se escuchan
Now they are listening to
Las notas
The notes
Del acordeon
Of the accordian
De gaitas que enamoran al repique de la tambor
Of flutes that love the beating of the drum
Que suenen los cueros
How the skins sound
Todo es alegr |

Water bottle. the water bottle added yet another new sound to this song . "farolito" (little star) is a romantic and ethnic language song talking about christmas night a night when

Farolitos en el cielo
Little stars in the sky
Poco a poco van naciendo (x2)
Little by little they are born
Como nace el sentimiento
Like the emotion born
Por las calles de mi pueblo (x2)
Through the streets of my village

3. _ Abriendo Puertas (opening Doors)
This song mixes together the style of colombian vallenato with salsa. the begining verses are more clearly "vallenato paseo" which were influenced by the groove provided by the "
Vallenata " a percussion instrument from the north coast of colombia. the melodic and harmonic structure has a clear "salsa" taste, which converge into a powerful blend in the &q
Ambo" part of the song.
The title of this song has a wide array of meanings "opening doors" can literally translate into many feelings establishing new relationships a person opening doors within themselves t
Ew and more positive attitude towards life. another meaning of the title is opening doors to our latin american cultures. our nations share many common roots and if we open our doors we will b
The new hope for this complex world. its simply a matter of "opening doors"

4. _ Felicidad (happyness)
This highly danceable song blends "son montuno" style with cha cha cha sounds, making for a typical "charanga" style of music. a powerful sound was achieved by the nasal so
G background vocals, the blend and performance of the brass and violin section, the heavy percussion grove, and the help of the colombian "guacharaca".
Felicidad"... inspires us to look back and remember the year we have just lived. it's a time of introspection, a time for sharing, a time for remembering good things and open our eyes to o
N possible destinations and to follow that path with a happy heart.

Coro:

Happiness in these christmas's
Felicidad!!!!! (x2)

Es el tiempo del encuentro
Its the time of meeting
Con lo mejor que hay en nuestro coraz |
5. _ Dulce Amor (sweet Love)
This danceable and contagious grove is the combination of three styles of latin music; colobian cumbia, colombian vallenato, and the cuban son. the begining verses are more cuban son groove, the
Uses and accordian solo are more vallenato, and the bridges have the cumbia taste.
"dulce amor" (sweet love) is a very metaphorical and surrealistic approach to a very sweet and romantic message of love dedicated to the person who captured your heart.
Todas las noches cuando miro al cielo
Every night when i look to the sky
Brillan tus ojos como dos luceros
Your eyes sparkle as two bright stars
Ojos tan puros como el agua clara
Eyes as pure as clear water
Que calma las heridas
That it calmes the wounds
De mi pobre coraz |

8. _ Mas Alla (beyond)
This song is a ballad with a bolero rhythmic taste combined by the congas, bongos, maracas, and the acoustic guitar with nylon strings.
Mas alla (beyond) expresses how when you do the right things in your life; when you give whthout asking for something in return, when you really care, when you forgive, when you work hard for y
Deals you then begin to discover your true self by begining to build a better tommorrow, beyond the pain ,the tears and the hate there shines the light of love within each heart . give peace a
Ve; that what the whole world needs more of.
Cuando das sin esperar

En lugar de rencor
In place of bitterness
Hay paz en tu coraz |
