FANGORIA: RETORCIENDO PALABRAS.


FANGORIA is a musical group made up of Alaska and Nacho Canut. Both had agreed earlier in the groups "Kaka de Luxe", "Alaska y Dinarama" and "Alaska y los Pegamoides". His style of music is often described as electropop, or defined by current generations as "vanguard" pioneers of this style of music in early 80. We have chosen RETORCIENDO PALABRAS (Arquitectura Efímera, 2004) on of their last favourites songs. Alaska contributed with her music to the "Movida Madrileña" a cultural spanish movement of the eighties. Her name is attached to this movement. Even participated as an actress in the first film by Pedro Almodóvar: "Pepi, Lucy, Bon y otras chicas del montón" en 1980.
 


LYRICS

No, no pretendas tener la razon,no me vengas pidiendo perdon,
no me digas que ha sido un error que lo sientes.

En fin, de que sirve un futuro ideal, construido en terreno ilegal
un pasado que me hace dudar del presente.

Y yo, me defiendo atacandote asi, retorciendo palabras de amor,
intentando que quieran decir lo que yo no me atrevo.
Y yo, me sorprendo diciendo que si, retorciendo palabras de amor
intentando que hagan por mi lo que yo ya no puedo.

No, no te inventes un nuevo color, transparente como una traiccion
camuflaje para una ilusion de mi mente.
Por fin, los milenios son un decimal, un trocito de tiempo fugaz
algo efimero y bien poco mas sin ningun valor.

Y yo, me defiendo atacandote asi, retorciendo palabras de amor,
intentando que quieran decir lo que yo no me atrevo.
Y yo, me sorprendo diciendo que si, retorciendo palabras de amor
intentando que hagan por mi lo que yo ya no puedo.

Los milenios son un decimal una suma de cifras de tiempo sin mas,
voces nuevas presentes futuras pasadas que van retorciendo palabras de amor
construyendo edificios que no duraran, un diseño de algo fugaz,
arquitectos de frases que me hacen dudar y que intentan decirme que no se lo que quiero.

Y yo, me defiendo atacandote asi, retorciendo palabras de amor,
intentando que quieran decir lo que yo no me atrevo.
Y yo, me sorprendo diciendo que si, retorciendo palabras de amor
intentando que hagan por mi lo que yo ya no puedo.

Construyendo edificios que no duraran, un diseño de algo fugaz,
arquitectos de frases que me hacen dudar y que intentan decirme que no se lo que quiero.

I prefer his first ages, now the music that he plays is too much electronic for me.
But they have good songs and Nacho is a great compositor

MIDAS said...

Me too. But "Retorciendo Palabras" is very Cool. Yes Mr. Canut is one of the greatest genious of spanish pop.

The earlier and youg Alaska with Ana Curra and the rest of Pegamoides (Eduardo and Carlos...) near was one of my influences in eighteens. she was inocent and fresh.
She was born in 1963 as me.
But I don´t like her nowadays. She is all the oposite of freshness.
I don´t understand her evolution across the last time.

MIDAS said...

I think I know what you mean. But I do not question his music. She is still the most modern of all. But his ideological discourse of recent years is not very coherent with what was in the past and that air of transgression that She inspired. Now she's bourgeoisified

WODEHOUSE said...

exactly!
She plays the folcrorica´s roll perfectly. A modern folclorica.

MIDAS said...

Totally agree. She's going to exceed the bounds of the ridiculous. Limits overcome by Marujita Díaz.
