“Con mis manos” by Spanish singer Bebe is another great single from the 2004 Bebe album Pafuera Telarañas (“Out with the spiderwebs”). Con mis manos was written by Bebe and released on November 15th 2004. It is very difficult to describe Bebe’s musical style. Maybe alternative gypsy folk rock, with tinges of dance, punk and flamenco. She is always original and always surprising and every song on Pafuera Telarañas just gets better and better with every play.

The Spanish lyrics:

Cuando estas, ya no están los demás
Cuando te vas, tengo ganas de llorar
Perdia en el sillón de mi cuarto
Pienso en ti con mis manos

Que hacer, no tengo ganas de salir
Por que siempre tienes que huir
Perdia en el sillón de mi cuarto
Pienso en ti con mis manos

Una y otra vez dulce barbaridad
El no controlar la forma de parar
No pienso llorar, de eso ya me cansé
Hoy voy a chillar voy a andar con mis pies

No pienso llorar, de eso ya me cansé
Hoy voy a chillar voy a andar con mis pies

Otra vez he hecho comida para dos
Otra vez me ha parecido oír tu voz
Otra vez, empiezo a deslizarme en el sillón
Pa darle a mi imaginación

Te pienso rodeándome
Te siento adentrándote
Perdia en el sillón de mi cuarto
Pienso en ti con mis manos

Una y otra vez dulce barbaridad
El no controlar la forma de parar
No pienso llorar, d eso ya me cansé
Hoy voy a chillar voy a andar con mis pies

No pienso llorar, de eso ya me cansé
Hoy voy a chillar voy a andar con mis pies

Cuando estas, ya no están los demás
Cuando te vas, tengo ganas de llorar
Perdia en el sillón de mi cuarto
Pienso en ti con mis manos

Malo by Bebe is a harrowing, flamenco-flavored tale of domestic abuse with the powerful chorus of: “Malo, malo, malo eres; no se daña a quien se quiere. Tonto, tonto, tonto eres; no te pienses mejor que las mujeres”. It was the lead single from the 2004 Bebe album Pafuera Telarañas (“Out with the spiderwebs”). Malo was not only super popular in Spain, it also went to number one in the Mexican charts and number seven in the US Latin charts. It was one of those songs that was heard everywhere you went in Spain in 2004. The simplistic black and white video and Bebe’s ardent and icy eye contact perfectly convey the anger of the lyrics.

The Spanish lyrics:

Apareciste una noche fría con olor a tabaco sucio y a ginebra
El miedo ya me recorría mientras cruzaba los deditos tras la puerta
Tu carita de niño guapo se l’ha ido comiendo el tiempo por tus venas
Y tu inseguridad machista se refleja cada día en mis lagrimitas

Una vez más, no por favor que estoy cansá y no puedo con el corazón
Una vez más, no mi amor por favor, no grites que los niños duermen
Una vez más, no por favor que estoy cansá y no puedo con el corazón
Una vez más, no mi amor por favor, no grites que los niños duermen
Voy a volverme como el fuego, voy a quemar tus puños de acero
Y del morao de mis mejillas sacar valor para cobrarme las heridas

Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres
Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres

El día es gris cuando tú estas y el sol vuelve a salir cuando te vas
Y la penita de mi corazón yo me la tengo que tragar con el fogón
Mi carita de niña linda se ha ido envejeciendo en el silencio
Cada vez que me dices puta se hace tu cerebro más pequeño

Una vez más, no por favor que estoy cansá y no puedo con el corazón
Una vez más, no mi amor por favor, no grites que los niños duermen
Una vez más, no por favor que estoy cansá y no puedo con el corazón
Una vez más, no mi amor por favor, no grites que los niños duermen
Voy a volverme como el fuego, voy a quemar tus puños de acero
Y del morao de mis mejillas sacar valor para cobrarme las heridas

Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres
Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres

Voy a volverme como el fuego voy a quemar tus puños de acero
Y del morao de mis mejillas sacar valor para cobrarme las heridas

Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres
Malo, malo, malo eres no se daña a quien se quiere, no
Tonto, tonto, tonto eres no te pienses mejor que las mujeres

Malo, malo, malo eres malo eres, porque quieres
Malo, malo, malo eres no me chilles que me duele
Eres débil y eres malo no te pienses mejor que yo ni que nadie
Y ahora yo me fumo un cigarrito y te hecho el humo en el corazoncito
Porque malo, malo, malo eres, tu malo, malo, malo eres, si
Malo, malo, malo eres, siempre, malo, malo, malo eres

In late 2004 she released the fantastic debut album “Pafuera Telaranas” with the production of Carlos Jean for EMI Music. Best known songs included “Malo”, “Ella”, “Con Mis Manos” and “Siempre Me Quedará”. Bebe “Malo” is a harrowing, flamenco-flavored tale of domestic abuse and is the album’s emotional centerpoint. It features the line: “Malo, malo, malo eres; no se daña a quien se quiere. Tonto, tonto, tonto eres; no te pienses mejor que las mujeres”. Bebe is known for her free spirited direct, honest and edgy songs which are always delivered with a unique poetic touch.

On June 27, 2006, she announced her temporary withdrawal from the world of music to focus on her acting career. She can be seen in “La educación de las hadas” (2006), directed by José Luis Cuerda and Chaotic Ana and directed by Julio Medem. She also features in Caótica Ana – 2007, Busco – 2006, El oro de Moscú – 2003, Al sur de Granada – 2003. Her first on-screen appearance was in the TV show “Entre cien fuegos” in 2002.

In June 2009 she presented her new album called “Y..” The singles were “La bicha”, “Me fui”, “Pa mi casa” and “Busco me”. In the ceremony of the 2009 Latin Grammy Bebe confirmed that she was expecting her first child. On March 31, 2010, she gave birth to her daughter, Candela. Bebe has collaborated with Tontxu, Chambao, Luis Pastor, Albert Pla, El Combolinga, Los Delinqüentes, El Tío Calambres, Kultama, Paco Bello and Los Aldeanos amongst others. On 6th February 2012 Bebe released her third studio album “Un pokito de rokanrol” (A little bit of rock n’ roll). This album included the singles: “K.I.E.R.E.M.E” (25th November 2011) and “Adiós” (7th February 2012).

Diarios de motocicleta (The Motorcycle Diaries) is a 2004 biopic about the 1952 expedition across South America by Ernesto Guevara and his friend Alberto Granado. Ernesto Guevara would later become known all around the world as the iconic Marxist revolutionary Che Guevara. This is the film representation of his written memoirs as a wide-eyed 23 year old and we see how Ernesto develops as a person and discovers himself transformed by his observations on the life of the impoverished indigenous people of South America that he meets along the way. Ernesto and Alberto initially set out on Alberto’s old motorcycle (named “La Poderosa” – “The Mighty One”) from their home in Argentina, but are forced to use a variety of different modes of transport to reach their final destination.

Their planned route takes them north across the Andes, along the coast of Chile, through the Atacama Desert and into the Peruvian Amazon in order to reach Venezuela just in time for Granado’s 30th birthday on April 2. Due to various complications along the way they arrive three months late. They set out from Buenos Aires a semester before Ernesto Guevara is due to complete his medical degree with the intention of finding fun and adventure and to see as much of Latin America as they can. Their route takes in more than 5,000 miles in just four and a half months and it is an extremely ambitious ask. The screenplay of Diarios de motocicleta is based primarily on Guevara’s real-life travelogue “The Motorcycle Diaries” by Ernesto Che Guevara, with additional context supplied by “Traveling with Che Guevara: The Making of a Revolutionary” by Alberto Granado.

Through the characters that Ernesto and Alberto encounter on their journey, they experience first-hand the imbalance between the haves and the have-nots of South America. The pair came themselves from relatively wealthy backgrounds and were exposed to people and social classes they would have never encountered otherwise. The trip plants the initial seed of cognitive dissonance and radicalization within Che Guevara, who would later view armed revolution as a way to challenge the continent’s endemic economic inequalities.

Che Guevara is played by Mexican actor Gael García Bernal and Alberto Granado by Argentine actor Rodrigo de la Serna. De la Serna is a second cousin to the real life Guevara on his maternal side. To prepare for the role of the young Che Guevara, Gael García Bernal went through six months of intense preparation which included reading every biography about Guevara, traveling to Cuba to speak with Guevara’s family, and consulting with Guevara’s then still living travel partner Alberto Granado. Bernal also had to work hard on his Argentinian accent and spent 14 weeks reading the works of José Martí, Karl Marx and Che Guevara’s favorite poet Pablo Neruda.

Diarios de motocicleta is directed by Brazilian director Walter Salles and written by Puerto Rican playwright José Rivera. The film was an international co-production among production companies from Argentina, the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Chile, Peru and France. It won the 2005 Academy Award for Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures and the 2005 BAFTA Film Award for the Best Film not in the English Language. The sountrack of Diarios de motocicleta is beautiful. The majority of the soundtrack was composed by Gustavo Santaolalla, but it also includes the song “Al Otro Lado del Río” by Jorge Drexler which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 2005.

El laberinto del fauno (“Pan’s Labyrinth”) was released in 2006. It is a Spanish language movie written and directed by Mexican director Guillermo del Toro and produced and distributed by the Mexican film company Esperanto Films. El laberinto del fauno is a dark fantasy movie that deals with the grueling topic of the Spanish Civil War from the perspective of a fairy tale loving ten year old girl. It is actually set in Spain five years after the Spanish Civil War, during the early Francoist period, but the war is still fresh in people’s minds and Spain is in turmoil.

The real world is interweaved with the fantasy world of Ofelia and we are taken to an abandoned labyrinth where we meet a mysterious faun creature. Ofelia interacts with the faun and leaves the horrors of the real world behind. Director Guillermo Del Toro stated that he considers the story to be a parable, influenced by fairy tales, and that it addresses and continues themes from his earlier film “The Devil’s Backbone” (2001). Some of the other works he drew on for inspiration include Lewis Carroll’s “Alice” books, Jorge Luis Borges’ “Ficciones”, Arthur Machen’s “The Great God Pan” and “The White People”, Lord Dunsany’s “The Blessing of Pan”, Algernon Blackwood’s “Pan’s Garden” and Francisco Goya’s works. In 2004, Guillermo del Toro said: “Pan is an original story. Some of my favourite writers (Borges, Blackwood, Machen, Dunsany) have explored the figure of the god Pan and the symbol of the labyrinth. These are things that I find very compelling and I am trying to mix them and play with them.”

There are similarities between El laberinto del fauno and Walt Disney Pictures’ The Chronicles of Narnia: both films are set around the same time, have similar child-age principal characters, mythic creatures, and themes of disobedience and choice. Del Toro said, “This is my version of that universe, not only Narnia, but that universe of children’s literature.” In fact, Guillermo del Toro was asked to direct The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe but turned it down to work on El laberinto del fauno.

This is not by any means a children’s movie. Some of the subject matter is quite shocking and the movie is extremely dark. The horrors of the war and fascist Spain are represented by Ofelia’s stepfather, the Falangist Captain Vidal whose job is to hunt out and kill anti-fascist rebels. At the beginning of the movie, Ofelia travels with her pregnant mother Carmen to meet Captain Vidal who is the father of Carmen’s unborn child. Not wanting to give too much of the story away, Ofelia’s mother grows increasingly ill and her relationship with Vidal increasingly strained. Ofelia is visited by several strange and magical creatures who become central to her story, leading her through the trials of the old labyrinth garden.

El laberinto del fauno premiered at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival and has since won numerous international awards, including three Academy Awards, the Ariel Award for Best Picture, the first Saturn Award for Best International Film and the 2007 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation. The score for El laberinto del fauno, composed by Javier Navarrete, was released on December 19, 2006. Navarrete and the score were also nominated for an Academy Award. It was entirely structured around a lullaby, and del Toro had the entire score included on the movie soundtrack.

Parallel Texts Barcelona Parte 5 Gastronomía

In Spanish:

Cataluña tiene una gran reputación por su exquisita cocina moderna y tradicional. La cocina de Barcelona se caracteriza por un estilo y una creatividad de los que otras regiones españolas carecen. Un pionero de la cocina moderna y de la Nueva Cocina Española es el cocinero catalán Ferrán Adrià. Adrià es uno de los cocineros más famosos, más imitados y respetados del mundo. Es fácil recomendar una visita a uno de sus magníficos restaurantes, pero por supuesto usted debe estar preparado para una factura considerable. A Adrià se le asocia a menudo con la “gastronomía molecular”. Sin embargo, él prefiere llamar a su estilo “deconstructivista” y dice que su objetivo es “proporcionar inesperados contrastes de sabor, temperatura y textura”.

Sin embargo, la comida de Barcelona tiene tres ingredientes básicos: el tomate, el ajo y el aceite de oliva. Debido a su proximidad al Mediterráneo, los platos de marisco son fáciles de encontrar, y también hay claros indicios de la influencia de las vecinas Francia y Valencia. La influencia valenciana se puede ver en la variedad de platos de arroz que se pueden encontrar en Cataluña.

Algunos de los platos locales más populares son el pan con tomate (pan tostado rústico grueso con ajo, sal y tomate frotado con aceite de oliva rociado en la parte superior), la Zarzuela (una cazuela de mariscos en la que se puede incluir cualquier combinación de diferentes tipos de pescado blanco, langostinos, camarones, calamares, mejillones, almejas, cangrejos y langosta con aceite de oliva, tomate, limón, pimentón, vino blanco, jerez y otras especias), la “Fideuá” (similar a la paella, pero en lugar de arroz, la base es fideos) y, finalmente, la Crema Catalana (un postre de natillas frío con una capa crujiente de azúcar caramelizado).

In English:

Catalonia has a reputation for fine modern and traditional cuisine. Barcelona cuisine is characterized by a flair and creativity that other Spanish regions lack. A pioneer of modern cuisine and the “Nueva Cocina Española” is Catalan chef Ferrán Adrià. Adrià, one of the most famous, most imitated and well respected chefs in the world. It is easy to recommend a visit to one of his wonderful restaurants, but of course you should be prepared for a hefty bill. Adrià is often associated with “molecular gastronomy”. However, he prefers to call his style “deconstructivist” and says his goal is to “provide unexpected contrasts of flavour, temperature and texture”.

Barcelona food has three staple ingredients however: tomato, garlic and olive oil. Due to its proximity to the Mediterranean, great seafood dishes are easy to find and there are also clear signs of the influences from neighbouring France and Valencia. Valencian influence can be seen in the variety of rice dishes that are available in Catalonia.

Some popular local dishes include “Pa amb tomàquet” (thick toasted rustic bread with garlic, salt and tomato rubbed in and olive oil drizzled on top), “Zarzuela” (a seafood casserole that can include any combination of different types of white fish, prawns, shrimp, squid, mussels, clams, crayfish or lobster with olive oil, tomato, lemon, paprika, white wine, sherry and other spices), “Fideua” (similar to paella,but instead of rice, the base is “Fideos” – short, skinny noodles) and finally “Crema Catalana” (a cold custard dessert with a crispy, caramelized sugar coating).

Parallel Texts Barcelona Parte 4 Qué visitar

In Spanish:

Barcelona es una ciudad llena de fantásticos parques: parques urbanos, parques históricos, parques forestales y parques botánicos. El parque “Montjuïc” es el parque más grande, situado en la montaña del mismo nombre, seguido del parque Ciutadella, el parque “Guinardó” y el parque de “Güell”, diseñado por Antoni Gaudí.

Antoni Gaudí (1852-1926) fue un arquitecto catalán que pertenecía al movimiento Art Nouveau modernista y fue famoso por sus diseños altamente individualistas. Nació en la provincia de Tarragona en el sur de Cataluña y es ampliamente reconocido como un elemento clave de lo que hace a Barcelona tan especial. Sus obras más importantes son el Parque Güell (1900-1914), la Casa Milà (1905-1907), la Casa Batlló (1905-1907) y, por supuesto, su obra maestra inacabada, La Sagrada Familia. Gaudí era un devoto católico, hasta el punto de que en sus últimos años, abandonó el trabajo secular y dedicó su vida al catolicismo y a su Sagrada Familia.

Barcelona cuenta con siete playas, un total de casi tres kilómetros de costa. Las playas “Sant Sebastià” y “Barceloneta” son las más grandes, las más antiguas y las más concurridas de Barcelona. El Puerto Olímpico las separa de las otras playas de la ciudad: “Nova Icària”, “Bogatell”, “Mar Bella”, “Nova Mar Bella” y “Levante”. Estas playas se abrieron como resultado de la reestructuración de la ciudad al ser sede de la Juegos Olímpicos de 1992, cuando un gran número de edificios industriales fueron demolidos.

La zona comercial principal de la ciudad se encuentra alrededor de la “Plaça Catalunya” y la Avenida Diagonal. Barcelona cuenta con varios complejos comerciales, entre ellos “L’Illa” y “Diagonal Mar” en la “Avenida Diagonal. Otros son “La Maquinista”, “Glòries” y “Maremagnum” situados cerca del puerto. Hay varios rascacielos impresionantes, siendo los más altos el Hotel Arts y su torre gemela la Torre Mapfre, seguidas de la Torre Agbar.

In English:

Barcelona is a city full of fantastic parks. Urban parks, historical parks, forest parks and botanical parks. “Montjuïc” park is the largest park, located on the mountain of the same name, followed by “Ciutadella” park, “Guinardó” park and “Güell” park, designed by Antoni Gaudí.

Antoni Gaudí (1852-1926) was a Catalan architect who belonged to the Modernist Art Nouveau movement and was famous for his highly individualistic designs. He was born in the province of Tarragona in southern Catalonia and is widely acknowledged as a key element of what makes Barcelona so special. His most important works include “Park Güell” (1900–1914), “Casa Milà” (1905–1907), “Casa Batlló” (1905–1907) and, of course his unfinished masterpiece, “La Sagrada Família”. Gaudí was a devoted Catholic, to the point that in his later years, he abandoned secular work and devoted his life to Catholicism and his “Sagrada Família”.

Barcelona has seven beaches, totalling nearly three miles of coastline. “Sant Sebastià” and “Barceloneta” beaches are the largest, oldest and the most frequented beaches in Barcelona. The Olympic port separates them from the other city beaches: “Nova Icària”, “Bogatell”, “Mar Bella”, “Nova Mar Bella” and “Llevant”. These beaches were opened as a result of the city restructuring to host the 1992 Summer Olympics, when a great number of industrial buildings were demolished.

The city’s main commercial centre is found around “Plaça Catalunya” and “Avinguda Diagonal”. Barcelona has several commercial complexes, including “L’Illa” and “Diagonal Mar” in “Avinguda Diagonal”. Others include “La Maquinista”, “Glòries” and “Maremagnum” by the port. There are several impressive skyscrapers, the tallest being the Hotel Arts and its twin the Torre Mapfre, followed by Torre Agbar.

Parallel Texts Barcelona Parte 3 Idioma

In Spanish:

Según el Estatuto de Cataluña y la Constitución Española la lengua oficial de Cataluña es el catalán, junto con el castellano (el español). Las dos lenguas coexisten en una situación bilingüe en Barcelona, de una manera similar al gallego en Galicia y el euskera en el País Vasco. El catalán es el idioma oficial de Andorra y también se habla en partes de Cerdeña y Francia.

En la España franquista (1939-1975), el uso del castellano sobre el catalán fue promovido, y el uso público del catalán se desaconsejó. El uso del catalán en las instituciones administradas por el gobierno y en los actos públicos fue prohibido. Tras la muerte de Franco en 1975 y la restauración de la democracia, el uso del catalán aumentó y la lengua catalana se utiliza ampliamente en la política, la educación y los medios de comunicación. Debido a la popularidad de Barcelona como destino turístico el catalán y el castellano no son los únicos idiomas que se escuchan en las calles. Esta ciudad tiene una fascinante mezcla de varias culturas diferentes.

El castellano, el idioma oficial de España, es una lengua románica / neolatina que se originó en el norte de España, se extendió gradualmente por todo el Reino de Castilla y se convirtió en el idioma principal del gobierno y el comercio. Fue llevado a las Américas, África y Asia con la expansión del imperio español entre los siglos XV y XIX. Hoy en día, es uno de los tres idiomas más hablados en todo el mundo.

In English:

According to the Statute of Catalonia and the Spanish Constitution the official language of Catalonia is Catalán, together with Castellano (Spanish). The two languages exist in a bilingual situation in Barcelona, in a similar way to Gallego (Galician) in Galicia and Euskera (Basque) in País Vasco. Catalán is the official language of Andorra and is also spoken in parts of Sardinia and France.

In Francoist Spain (1939–1975), the use of Castellano over Catalán was promoted, and public use of Catalán was discouraged. The use of Catalán in government-run institutions and in public events was banned. Following the death of Franco in 1975 and the restoration of democracy, the use of Catalán increased and the Catalán language is now widely used in politics, education and the media. Due to Barcelona’s popularity as a tourist destination Catalán and Castellano are not the only languages that you will hear on the streets. This city has a fascinating blend of various different cultures.

Castellano (Castilian), the official language of Spain, is a Romanic/Neolatin language that originated in northern Spain, gradually spread throughout the Kingdom of Castile and evolved into the principal language of government and trade. It was taken to the Americas, Africa and Asia with the expansion of the Spanish Empire between the fifteenth and nineteenth centuries. Today, it is one of the top three most widely spoken languages around the world.

Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios (Women on the verge of a nervous breakdown) is a famous Spanish film from 1988 starring a strikingly young Antonio Banderas as Carlos, Carmen Maura as Pepa, Julieta Serrano as Lucía and Rossy de Palma as Marisa. The film was ranked No. 78 in Empire magazine’s 100 best films of world cinema in 2010 and was written and directed by Pedro Almodóvar. This was the film that really brought Almodóvar to widespread international attention. Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios was nominated for the 1988 Academy Award for Best Foreign-language film, and won five Goya Awards including Best Film and Best Leading Actress for Carmen Maura. Films by Spanish director Pedro Almodovar consistently present us with the strangest of characters and the most aberrant social behaviours and Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios doesn’t dissapoint in this respect.

Proceedings begin with pregnant voice-over actress Pepa, distraught over her recent breakup with her lover Iván, preparing to overdose on sleeping pills. She blends the sleeping pills into a gazpacho soup and is all ready to take her own life when she is diverted by her best friend Candela. Candela, played by Spanish actress María Barranco, is on the run as her boyfriend is a Shi’Ite terrorist. Like many of the other characters, Candela is looking for a place to stay and Carmen has a “room to let” advert out in the newspaper.

Later, Iván’s son (with previous lover Lucía), played by Antonio Banderas, also comes to the apartment with his snobby fiance Marissa. Carlos and Pepa quickly realise each other’s relationship to Iván and Candela unsuccessfully attempts to kill herself by jumping off the balcony. Meanwhile, Marisa decides to drink some gazpacho she finds in the fridge; the same gazpacho that was previously spiked with sleeping pills. As she blissfully snoozes away, her husband inaugurates an affair with Candela.

I don’t want to give away too much more of the plot, but it is safe to say that things twist and turn more than a rattlesnake on a roundabout. Pedro Almodóvar is one of those directors who you either love or hate. Even if his films are not your cup of tea, anyone even mildly interested in Spanish cinema is duty bound to explore a few of his films. Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios is a good starting point. Almodóvar is arguably the most successful and internationally well known Spanish filmmaker of his generation. His films are marked by complex narratives, irreverent humor, bold colors and the dominant themes of desire, passion, and family. Women on the verge of a nervous breakdown was adapted into a musical by Jeffrey Lane and David Yazbek and opened on Broadway on 4th November 2010, at the Belasco Theatre.
