Pa'bailar - Electronic TANGO

[grobandion]

Hi...I've read the topics started by Aly and Denelle, about their obsession with certain songs.

Well, here's mine.

It's been months now since I'm completely obsessed with this song:

It's by an Electronic Tango Group from Argentina called "Bajofondo", feat. Mexico's Julieta Venegas.

The name of the song is "Pa'Bailar" (for dancing).

 

I can't take this song out of my head (nor my signature)

Just wanted to share it

 

bye

I will give it a listen when I get home. But what happened to 'saludos' as your sign off? It was your calling card!

[WallsDoTalk]

Yeah...I've heard them before. They're great, I really like tango, specially this "modern" and hip one

Hi Edwin

Well, I kinda felt it was too "ethnic", and things were a little "judging" and "discriminatory" a few weeks ago, so to avoid something like: "...this is the English section, write in english", I decided to cut it off

You think I should bring it back?....I kind of miss ending my replies with it

[Edwin]

Heck yeah! It's a part of who you are. It's not like your entire posts are in spanish.

[grobandion]

Ok, thanks a lot....I will

 

saludos

[Snowhite]

i want to dance nooow!

As long as you don't confuse everyone, it's fine.

I'm really enjoying it Groban

But, could you help me out with the lyrics?

I'm in SouthAmerica right now, studying Spanish, and I really can't get some things of the lyrics....and the title.

Thankuo

I'm glad you liked it. I'll try to send you the translation of the lyrics in a PM

About the title, well, I've already explained it, it means something like "for dancing"

 

saludos

 

p/s: where in SouthAmerica are you? are you studying only spanish?

[Edwin]

I have listened to this three times, but I'm not head over heels for it, lol. But I gave it a go

Thanks Gorbanon...!!!

I'm in Argentina right now, but I just came from Chile.

I will go to Peru, and then Brazil, and Mexico.

[WallsDoTalk]

Gorbandon, can you give me some info of this Tango sub-genre?

Thanks...I'm really liking the Tango.

I'm in Argentina right now

[grobandion]

Hi WallsDoTalk (can I call you WDT? or just tell me your name, coz it's too long)

First of all (and please don't get mad) try PLEASE to write down my name properly...you have called me grobion, grobondon, grobiodon...or just call me Oscar or GD, okay?

Second, I'm glad you're getting into the electronic tango groove.

I'm not a fan of this sub-genre, I'm just a bit obsessed with this particular song

I DO love however traditional Tango, specially the great Julio Sosa, who is one of the greatest Tango performers in history and died very young, and eclipsed by the name and figure of Carlos Gardel

In the internet you can find almost everything about them, and also about "Bajofondo" as well

GD

[Edwin]

I believe his name is Ivan, GD

[grobandion]

ok, thanks Edwin

 

Ivan then, here are some links for you to check out:

 

This one is in myspace, and it's in english. You can listen to their current single while reading the info:

http://www.myspace.com/bajofondomardulce

 

This one is for you to find out about the great JULIO SOSA. Unfourtunately it's in Spanish.

However, I think you have said you are learning spanish, and you are in LatinAmerica now, so you'll probably understand it perfectly

Hope you find those helpful

 

saludos

[WallsDoTalk]

Gracias GD !!!!

I really appreciate it

and sorry for the name incident, I'm calling you GD from now on

 

Thanks again for the Tango links, it's really helpful now, coz I'm studying Spanish and I'm doing a research about TANGO and your tips are very useful...gracias

 

Ivan

[grobandion]

You're welcome Ivan.

I'm not a Tango expert, nor a big fan. I really, really like the lyrics of most of the songs. I find them amazing.

Composers just don't write such amazing songs nowadays.

I strongly suggest you songs like: "Uno", "Nada" and "Balada para un loco", three of my favs.

And if you can't stand words, then Astor Piazzola is for you...try "Adios nonino", a true gem

 

saludos

GD

[WallsDoTalk]

Thanks GD, I really liked "Adios nonino"...it's a masterpiece!!!!!!!!

Thanks a lot for everything

 

Ivan

No, just a lot of gay guys wish he was . Me not included, I don't see the attraction.

[grobandion]

Well, I'm straight (you know that...hahaha) but I can see when a man is handsome, like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise, the obvious cases.

I don't see it in this guy either...is like an ordinary fellow to me

Those photos do lokk kind of gay though (no ofense), the shirtless ones I mean

Yes

[WallsDoTalk]

GD, I'm so in love with that song you suggested, "Adios nonino"....

I found this link in youtube I wanted to share

 

 

Thanks a lot GD, that song is amazing, I can't ghet enough of it. I am using it in my work for the Uni, as I told you

Thanks

 

Ivan

[grobandion]

I am so glad you liked it!!! That song is a gem, as most of Astor Piazzolla's work is.

You can find that song being played at the wedding of Maxima Zorreguieta. She's the current princess of Holland, and this song made her cry at her wedding...so moving

 

I'm happy I was useful....need anything else, let me know.

How about Julio Sosa? have you heard anything from him?

Also, check out "El mareo", the new single by Bajofondo. And the group Narcotango is also great.

 

saludos

[WallsDoTalk]

Hi GD

I did chek out Julio Sosa...sorry, too "traditional" or too "argentine" for my taste

I do like "El Mareo" though. I'm starting to believe I'm a Bajofondo fan, coz I've heard a song of theirs with Nelly Furtado which is amazing!!!

Thanx for the info about nonino

bye

Hi Ivan

"too argentine" hahahaha..made me laugh

You're right though, traditional Tango is not for everyone, specially "El baron del Tango", Mr.Sosa

About Nelly Furtado, yes, I like her song with Bajofondo, it's great
