When the old lady "watches" tv, there comes on an accustic song by a guy on a guitar, sings in spanish and I have tried to figure out what song it is and who the guy performing it is...
I think the song is called "Mariposa" or "Como una Mariposa" and is by the artist Pablo Milanés
. But I have not been able to locate/Buy/download the song anywhere...but it is a bloody FANTASTIC song...any help much appriciated!
nevermind, Fernando Perez wrote back to me :-) It is unreal, but might be catching up with him in Havana next week!
share I have been lucky enough to be present twice in his concerts, once in México City and the other one during Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato.
He is a true poet. I still remember the echo of thousands of people singing at the same time the lyrics of his songs like: "Ojalá", "Playa Girón", "El Necio", "Óleo de una mujer con sombrero", "Te amaré... y después", "Rabo de nube", of course "Mariposas"... UFFF! It's incredible what a poet can do just with a guitar and his voice.
¡Viva Silvio!
