Yesterday I attended a friend’s wedding in Fuengirola and at the reception we were treated to several guitar and song performances by two local artists: and Jorge. I have had the pleasure of seeing Jorge sing and play guitar before with my friend and ex-workmate . It amazes me how he manages to play seemingly without any effort at all but then that’s due to his experience and natural talent. What surprised me is how humble he is and during his breaks from playing, he mixed with the rest of us dancing and chatting. The same can be said of Lorenzo, who I just met for the first time yesterday.
Lorenzo took the lead in singing and sat atop the music box, a very popular instrument here in Andalucía, whilst Jorge astounded us with his dexterity on the guitar. Below are two videos recorded live from the event, that will hopefully give you a taste of what we enjoyed. They were recorded with an iPhone 4 so the quality is not great (as a side point, I’m slowly being converted over to the Dark Side in favour of a Samsung Galaxy S4 if anyone has one that they want to give away)!
Tápame Lyrics:
(Chorus) Cover me with your hands ... I'm cold ... Because I no longer say my darling and my body snuggles in your arms and let me believe ... I'm dreaming. (Bis).
I do not want our love is lost if you do not fancy're not with me I feel our love is cooling alone And I wonder, What is going on?
(Chorus)
I do not know for what reason you have not forgotten me in your way who have crossed you Because when you speak these absent Tell me if I have something to offer.
(Chorus)
The life I left I offer you the case you could save this love of ours But do not betray me with your lies That true love is not begged.
(Chorus)
