I know this is going to come as a huge shock, but I am a huge fan of Ricky Martin. (Can you hear that sarcasm? If you’ve been to my blog more than say 5 times you know I love Ricky.) 
I was on You Tube and came across one of my absolute favorite songs by him. I hadn’t seen the video and it’s beautiful. Thought I’d share it.
Click on the video to watch it at YouTube full size. Having issues with my coding and it being to big for the front page.
Lyrics:
Tal vez sera que esa historia ya tiene final
no se porque hoy te siento tan distante de mí
que a pesar que lo intento de nuevo
tal vez llegue tarde, ya no hay nada que hacer
y no puedo creer que el tiempo que hemos tenido tal vez se nos gastó
tal vez fui yo que no te dio una noche entera
tal vez nunca te he dado lo que tú esperabas
y no estaba cuando me necesitabas
tal vez no te escuche,Tal vez me descuide
tal vez se me olvido que yo te amaba.
Tal vez…….. ay,ay,ay,ay
tal vez será que por ahora ya no hay nada que hablar
tal vez esta vez necesitamos tiempo para pensar
Y yo por mi parte propongo intentarlo de nuevo,volver a empezar
que por más que lo pienso no encuentro una sola razón para seguir sin tí
Tal vez fui yo que no te dio una noche entera
Tal vez nunca te he dado lo que tú esperabas
y no estaba cuando me necesitabas
Tal vez no te escuche,Tal vez me descuide
tal vez se me olvido que yo te amaba.
Tal vez me sorprendio la vida por la espalda
y tira y tira y se rompió la cuerda
Tal vez nunca entendí lo que eras para mí
Tal vez yo nunca supe a quien amaba
Y yo por mi parte propongo intentarlo de nuevo,volver a empezar
que por más que lo pienso no encuentro una sola razón para seguir sin tí
Tal vez fui yo que no te dio una noche entera
Tal vez nunca te he dado lo que tú esperabas
y no estaba cuando me necesitabas
Tal vez no te escuche,Tal vez me descuide
tal vez se me olvido que yo te amaba
Translation:
Note – I didn’t translate this, it was an option in my tool bar. It’s rough.
Perhaps that story will already have final
today not because you feel so distant from me
that although I try again
maybe late, there’s nothing to do
I can not believe that the time we had maybe we spent
maybe it was me who did not give you a full night
may never have given you what you expected
and not there when you needed me
you may not listen, I may neglect
maybe I forgot that I loved you.
Maybe …….. ay, ay, ay, ay
may be that by now there is nothing to talk
maybe this time we need time to think
And I for one intend to try again, starting over
more than that I think can not find a single reason to go on without you
Maybe it was me who did not give you a full night
Maybe I’ve never been what you expected
and not there when you needed me
You might not hear, I may neglect
maybe I forgot that I loved you.
Maybe life surprised me from behind
and pull and pull and the rope broke
Maybe I never understood what they were to me
Maybe I never knew he loved
And I for one intend to try again, starting over
more than that I think can not find a single reason to go on without you
Maybe it was me who did not give you a full night
Maybe I’ve never been what you expected
and not there when you needed me
You might not hear, I may neglect
maybe I forgot that I loved you
More or less – It’s a song about someone saying Maybe I didn’t give you enough time, enough love, maybe I wasn’t there for you. It has always just spoke to my heart since I first got this CD a few years ago.
It’s on his Almas del Silencio
Here’s my 2nd favorite song on that album -
His face cracks me up when he sings un foto con Bush. (president)
Lyrics:
Tengo millas de vuelo para ir a Plutón
Tengo un club de fans en la luna
Una casa gigante que veo desde un avión
Y en los ojos de algunos fortuna
Un ejército de alcahuetes, una foto con Bush
Una suite en el Waldorf, y más autos que amigos
Tengo ganas de no tener ganas
Tengo un par de mascotas que no saben quien soy
Y entre tanto que tengo no encuentro
Razón suficiente pa’olvidarme de ti
Coro:
Y de tu mano pequeña diciéndome adiós
Esa tarde de lluvia en San Juan
De los besos que llevo conmigo
Que son sólo tuyos y nunca te di
Por andar ocupado en el cielo
Me olvidé que en el suelo se vive mejor
Mi boricua, mi india, mi amor
Mi asignatura pendiente
Mi boricua, mi india, mi amor
Mi asignatura pendiente
Tengo tres oficinas y un piso en New York
Y el Rey Midas trabaja conmigo
Tengo varias razones para tener razón
De que no hay peor razón que el olvido
Tengo intacto al niño que fui
Tengo ganas de anclar
Y otras tantas de huir a un sitio perdido
Tengo ganas de no tener ganas
De comprarme un boleto de regreso al ayer
Y entre tanto que tengo no encuentro
Razón suficiente pa’olvidarme de ti
Repite Coro
Translation:
(again, this is rough, but quicker than me doing it.)
I have miles of flight to go to Pluto I have a club of fans in the moon A giant house that I see from an airplane And in the eyes of some fortune An army of procurers, a photo with Bush a suite in the Waldorf, and more cars than friendly I have desire of not having desire I have a pair of mascots that do not know who I am and in the meantime that I have nonencounter Sufficient reason pa’ to forget to me you Choir: And of your small hand saying goodbye to me That behind schedule of rain in San Juan Of the kisses that I take with me That they are only yours and never I gave you To walk occupied in the sky I forgot that in the ground it is lived better My boricua, my Indian, my love My pending subject My boricua, my Indian, my love My pending subject I have three offices and a floor in New York And King Midas works with me I am right several to be right Of which there is no worse reason than the forgetfulness I have intact the boy that I was I have desire to anchor And other so many to flee to a lost site I have desire of not having desire to buy a ticket to me of return to yesterday And in the meantime that I have nonencounter Sufficient reason pa’ to forget to me you
Those are my 2 favorite Ricky Martin songs. It’s hard to choose. He has so many CDs out, but I think Almas del Silencio
