Cormorán blanco

Liner Notes

Dropped a fun little youtube mixtape in December and this month I felt inspired to write some more & do a Deluxe! I was trying to write more in English this FAWM but lately I just feel like I have more to say in Spanish

This song talks about my love for the island my grandma is from (Mallorca) and watching the sun go down on the beach

Lyrics

Cormorán blanco, blanco, blanco
Cuando te vi desde mi banco
En Son Veri, no era normal
Es que parecías la espuma del mar

Yo me metí al agua fría
Y buceé ahí por la orilla
Bajo las olas uno no ve nada
Pero cruzamos tú y yo la mirada

Nadie puede quitarme
Donde yo solía sentarme
Sigue extistiendo en mi mente, el lugar
Sigo viendo el horizonte en el mar
Nadie, no nadie puede robarme
Lo que sólo yo he sabido darme
Comiendo quelitas en ese lugar
Viendo la puesta del sol desde el mar

La la la la la...

El cielo era negro, negro, negro
Sin una estrella consejera
Siempre que puedo, yo vuelvo al lugar
Sin un solo paso tener que dar

Love your voice. And that "la la la" turns it suddenly into citypop for me.

I loooove this. Sweeping and your voice is so emotive! I translated the lyrics too, they're gorgeous.

This is so lovely and lyrical. Great mix and your voice is butter-like.

Warm, nostalgic, gently swaying... such a lovely song! Nice work on the arrangement too. (I only know a handful of words of Spanish, but the image of a white cormorant is pretty striking!)
