- 0:00Speaker 1: In the podcast Bad Friends, the two American hosts were
- 0:04Speaker 1: singing LaBamba in a very big killer way. Bamba is
- 0:10Speaker 1: that how it goes? And what does it really say?
- 0:14Speaker 1: Let's find out the meaning behind this and other famous
- 0:17Speaker 1: songs with Spanish lyrics in this episode of Speaking Spanish
- 0:20Speaker 1: for Beginners. All Guitaro Marco, you're Latino Spanish teacher. In
- 0:31Speaker 1: this episode you learn what some famous songs with Spanish
- 0:34Speaker 1: lyrics actually say. Some are entirely in Spanish, while others
- 0:39Speaker 1: mix English with a bit of Spanish. These songs were
- 0:43Speaker 1: suggested by subscribers to my newsletter Motas Glass Satotos. It's
- 0:49Speaker 1: a great opportunity to pick up new vocabulary from songs
- 0:53Speaker 1: you might already know. Are you ready for this?
- 0:56Speaker 2: Yes, sir mamos.
- 1:02Speaker 1: You've probably heard these songs many times, songs with Spanish lyrics,
- 1:07Speaker 1: but maybe you've had no clue what they're saying for
- 1:12Speaker 1: perhaps you've tried to sing along and completely butchered the lyrics. Well,
- 1:18Speaker 1: today's today you learned to sing them correctly and improve
- 1:21Speaker 1: your espanel. Let's get started, Nu metal No. This suggestion
- 1:28Speaker 1: comes from Hans was inspired this episode. Here is his message,
- 1:34Speaker 1: Alla Marco, come on a start kiarosaberqd say should I
- 1:38Speaker 1: stay or should I go? Last Texion and Espanol hans
- 1:43Speaker 1: buena election. That's a banger, and to be honest, I
- 1:47Speaker 1: was surprised to learn that this song has a Spanish section.
- 1:51Speaker 1: I never noticed until you pointed it out. The chorus
- 1:55Speaker 1: of this song goes should I stay should I go?
- 2:01Speaker 1: When I first heard that part, I thought it said
- 2:04Speaker 1: then go forrio for loss what meaning I'm cold in
- 2:10Speaker 1: the eyes, which doesn't make any sense in Espanol. But
- 2:15Speaker 1: after checking the lyrics, it's actually may in frio or losolo.
- 2:21Speaker 1: The verbs are in friar men frio and supplat loso
- 2:28Speaker 1: plo and friar so plat. But that's still confusing. Let
- 2:34Speaker 1: me explain this is a literal translation, so careful with
- 2:39Speaker 1: literal translation. They're trying to say should I cool or
- 2:43Speaker 1: should I blow n friar, which is the verb the
- 2:46Speaker 1: use is to make something cold, and supplat means to
- 2:52Speaker 1: blow air. That's so plat, But neither word fits the
- 2:57Speaker 1: intended meaning of to cool down or blow up, as
- 3:02Speaker 1: in getting angry. So a better translation would have been
- 3:06Speaker 1: cal Marcy to come down cal Marcy and explota to
- 3:13Speaker 1: blow up with anger explotar so in keeping with the
- 3:18Speaker 1: rhythm of the song, it could have been Joe Michlmo
- 3:22Speaker 1: or exploto. But he is a pang song so breaking
- 3:26Speaker 1: the rules is part of the term. No meto does
- 3:31Speaker 1: lai isla Bonita by Madonna. This one is very easy.
- 3:37Speaker 1: La that means beautiful island isla island and bonita beautiful
- 3:48Speaker 1: lai isla bonita. Very simple. Right, Let's look at some
- 3:53Speaker 1: other parts of the songs that are in Spanish. Time Yes,
- 3:59Speaker 1: siesta spelled s a e a said they are sister
- 4:05Speaker 1: means nap. In Spanish we say tomar una sister, to
- 4:11Speaker 1: take a nap, tomar una siesta thomas unna sister Joe avasis.
- 4:20Speaker 1: And then there is tamo. I love how she pronounces
- 4:26Speaker 1: it thea mom. Let's work on a pronunciation for that section.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Feel free to repeat after me, first law and then
- 4:36Speaker 1: at a normous speed the amor normous speed. Now the amo,
- 4:44Speaker 1: and that means I love you. The verb is amar
- 4:49Speaker 1: am a er amar to love a regular verb. Joe Tamo.
- 4:56Speaker 1: My dear listener, BESI I have to say I'm not
- 5:02Speaker 1: into pop music, but listening to this song by Madonna.
- 5:05Speaker 1: Many appreciate the road talent needed in the past to
- 5:08Speaker 1: sing these songs, not like artists today who relate too
- 5:12Speaker 1: much on autotune. I really hate it. No meto tres
- 5:18Speaker 1: la bamba. This was suggested by Laura, who says the
- 5:22Speaker 1: singers lurs all the words. Let's clear up the mystery
- 5:26Speaker 1: of la bamba too quick for you. Let me say
- 5:33Speaker 1: slowly for you. It's bada by lad la bamba, Bada
- 5:41Speaker 1: by lad la bamba, anomous spit baa by lad la bamba.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I don't have the talent of richyvalance. That section means
- 5:53Speaker 1: in order to dance la bamba bada in order to
- 5:59Speaker 1: by lad to dance and LaBamba is the style of
- 6:03Speaker 1: music Bada by lar LaBamba. The next part is too quick.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Here is what it says, say nescita una poka the gracia.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Once again, say nescita una poka the gracia. Adn't Norma's
- 6:29Speaker 1: bit sit down raa. And that section simplements you need
- 6:36Speaker 1: a little bit of grace. That's why if you put
- 6:39Speaker 1: it all together, that part says to dance la bamba
- 6:43Speaker 1: you need a little bit of grace. That's it. Mystery solved,
- 6:48Speaker 1: So tell me dnexito de gracia to dance la bamba
- 6:55Speaker 1: nu metto quatro. This one was suggested by Malissa. This
- 7:00Speaker 1: two by Morcedrades. She heard this song in high school
- 7:04Speaker 1: years ago in the United States. Here is how it goes.
