yeah great version of it that…….one my favourites by her……had many moments lost in tranquility smoking a joint to this track
I strongly recommend this band. As Sparkey knows, I’m off to Spain asap - and learning the language. These guys are really good - please give them a listen and try to ignore/tolerate the Spanish - or even try and follow it like me Their melodies are really good and I will try and see them when I’m over there….. https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tLP1TcwzMjJNs8yYPQSyUlUyC9KzUpUSElVKEvMU0jPT88AALGZCsE&q=la oreja de van gogh&rlz=1CDGOYI_enGB885GB885&oq=la orea de &gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCQgBEC4YDRiABDIGCAAQRRg5MgkIARAuGA0YgAQyCQgCEAAYDRiABDIJCAMQABgNGIAEMgkIBBAAGA0YgAQyCQgFEAAYDRiABDIPCAYQLhgNGK8BGMcBGIAEMgkIBxAAGA0YgAQyCQgIEAAYDRiABNIBCTI0NTM5ajBqN6gCALACAOIDBBgBIF8&hl=en-GB&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8
Are you moving to Spain or just holidaying? Either way, well done on learning the lingo. I'll be giving that band a listen later on today
As soon as I get to 60 - or get made redundant - I’m off. We have a flat in Gibraltar which is currently rented out. Our plan is to live near Marbella and run the Gib flat as an Airbnb.
Guys - If it works according to plan and you fancy a break in Gib then I’ll still be posting here (more on our own board) so I’ll offer you preferential‘ ‘neighbour’ rates Seriously.
Also, if any of you happen to find yourself in Gib and go to the Trafalgar pub (next to the Trafalgar cemetery) and you see a Bristol City pennant then it was donated by me !!! There is a Cardiff pennant there (and a Jacks one too - among others!!)
Just another note - if you can listen to their music and get beyond the language issue - there are a number of foreign bands/artists that are relatively unknown here in the UK but are geniuses in their own right. Jonny Halliday is another - different genre but a great artist nonetheless - worked with Paul McCartney - but never broke into the UK music scene because he only sung in French.
Have you listened to them yet Clingo? I seriously recommend them - unless you hate melodic rock music of course….!!!!
So I've listened to half a dozen of their songs and there's no denying that they are excellent at what they do. I didn't have an issue with the language and in fact, I thought it enhanced the experience. The vocal layering is very accomplished and the instrumental musicians do what they should do for that style of music... keep it simple. I wouldn't accuse them of musical plagiarism but there's a myriad of clear influencers there... nothing wrong with that either. Overall, perhaps a little bit clichéd for me but I can respect them. I got the impression that seeing and listening to them live would be the best experience. Thanks for sharing and I will listen to some more.
