Hello Steemit!
This is my entrance for week #70 of this amazing contest I love participating week by week ! Sponsored by @luzcypher and @pfunk!
Today I am covering a song from one of my favorite composers and musicians of all time: Luis Alberto Spinetta. His legacy is huge in the argentinian's popular music. Spinetta can arguably be considered the father of argentinian rock but his music catalog has visited all sorts of styles , from rock, punk, jazz, folklore, pop ... you name it. He released 40 albums through his numerous proyects and bands and many of his songs are now classics in the Argentinian music catalog.
I chose ''Mi sueño de hoy" to cover today from his band ''Los socios del desierto'' a power trio that released from very raw and powerful tunes to more sophisticated and deep songs like this one. One of my favorites!
I went to "La Real Sociedad Studios" to do an acoustic take , just raw with a couple overhead mics :). Hope you like it!
(Luis Alberto Spinetta)
Mi sueño de hoy,
mi sueño de ayer,
mi sueño que es,
tan solo tu querer...
así, mientras la luna brille,
y el sol no caiga,
yo estaré feliz...
Un sueño de luz,
como en la niñez,
un sueño que es,
un dulce amanecer...
así, mientras la luna brille,
y el sol no caiga,
yo estaré feliz...
Un sueño de luz,
como un amanecer,
no pasará al olvido...
Here's a translation:
"My dream of today"
(Luis Alberto Spinetta)
My dream of today
my dream of yesterday
my dream that is
only your love
As long as the moon shines
and the sun doesn't fall
I will be happy
My dream of light
like in our childhood
a dream that is
a sweet sunrise
As long as the moon shines
and the sun doesn't fall
I will be happy
My dream of light
like the sunrise
won't be forgotten
Thank you for reading and listening!
Signing off!
