Post 8: The Sound of Music

This week I talk about my favorite music. The kind of music that like me is the Spanish music, because I like understand that I hear it. Well I would say who my favorite singer is and talk about his music. He is Ismael Serrano, he is Spanish singer and a troubadour. He is a composer, singer and a poet for me.


My favorite sing of this singer is “Amores Imposibles”, this is about three histories of different persons. The first is about a homosexual man, he has a family, a wife, but he don`t happy because he can´t live his sexually as he want. The second part is about a man in love of a prostitute, every day he goes at the bar and he looks at this woman wonderful but impossible to have. And the final of this sing is about a woman and men that they have in love, but their parents don´t let are together.


Other singers that I like me are Joaquin Sabina, Luis Eduardo Aute, Silvio Rodriguez, Pablo Milanés, among others.

Also I like other kind of music, very different of this. I love the Punk Rock Music, my favorite band are “The Sex Pistols”. Sid Vicious was a typical punk of seventies, he was a Rock Star, whit his clothes cracked and his hair disordered. I had a band of rock two years ago, and we sang all songs of “The Sex Pistols”, I miss those moments. But I hope we can soon return to play.

Definitely the music is very important to me. I hear music when I am sad, I’m happy, I`m stressed, I`m in love, I`m angry, and all times. I don´t live without music. The songs disconnect me of my problems and with theirs; I can express feelings through different melodies.
If yours want hear a wonderful music, you must hear a CD of Ismael Serrano, but if yours want release your anger, you have to hear to Sid Vicious in “Sex Pistols”.

See you soon.
Ale.

Post 6: Cinema

This week talk about my favorite movies. I love going to movies, go whenever I can and I have money.

The last time I went to the movies, was two months ago with my family and saw "Grado 3", we laughed a lot because the movie was very funny.

I tell about my favorite movies, the truth is that most of them are not released in the cinema, are more classic or art film, so to get them I go to clubs or download videos from the Internet. My favorite is classic film "Casablanca" which tells a romantic story between "Ilsa Lazlo" and "Rick Blaine" during the Second World War, I love the dialogues of the film and the performances are impressive. The soundtrack of the movie is really shocking. The truth I've seen the movie about 10 times and always come back to enchant.

The type of movie is the Spanish and Argentine cinema. I like the quality of his dialogues, by the power of the performances and of course for its actors. Some of those I prefer are. "Báilame el agua," "el lado oscuro del corazón"," Azuloscurocasinegro "among others.

The film really recommend is "El lado oscuro del corazón", I think everyone's life changed a bit seeing that movie. It is about a man fleeing death and seeks a woman who flies to the woman who makes you feel something special, a love greater than any other sensation. Finally he found, however the ending is completely unexpected, must see and will not repent. The dialogues are made based on poems by Mario Benedetti and other poets. A movie to see together or alone, in love or not, a movie to believe again in what seems to make no sense.

Post 5. //Santiago City. ..

I might not say that I know totally the city of Santiago, but I like not to do it, this way I can be still being surprised whenever I cross it.

I was born here 24 years ago, and I have not been far for any more than one month. I am charmed with this city, everything what I like is here, I learned to live with his noise, with the enormous quantity of people and with the traffic.

I will try to tell them what I know and what it would recommend to visit of this beautiful city in which I live... If you come to Santiago you start visiting the popular sectors, one of them is A Villa France, where you will be able to see murals identical with the walls with political slogans between humble houses.

When you have known these sectors and spoken with the people, raise you to the subway of the city and cross under the land the different stations, you will see interesting groups of people depending on the station in which you are.

To continue salt to the surface and you can crosse the Avenue, comes up to the Mint and walk along the Morandé street, tries to imagine last days of the bloody facts that they marked this country, and shouts strongly that "Allende Vive".

Later you rest a bit in the " Fountain of the Bicentenary ", observes the water with lights of colors and fall in love with some pretty girl.

Finally do not stop visiting " The Metropolitan Park ", you raise even the high thing, visiting the " Japanese Garden ", walking along the hillsides, enjoying the most green lung of Santiago and the only place full of peace that it still has. You raise even high place, looks at your feet the city … and remember the way of return, because " Always we will still have Santiago ". ..
