LET’S GET THIS GOING!!!





Hi guys!!! It is a good time to begin with a new post.

This time we want you to give us your own concept about the next songs.
What we want you to do is to try to write your Spanish interpretation (not translation) of the lyrics of the songs. You can do this either by taking part by part (verse by verse) of the song, or by just giving the general “plot” or version of the story.

We have chosen these specific songs lyrics because we consider them to be interesting and beautiful, but at the same time not completely clear when trying to understand part by part the whole song. That’s to say that some parts of the song are not totally clear even after having found the original reliable English lyrics. We have been able to understand the story as a whole, yes, but we want to catch every single part of this works of art and enjoy them as it is meant to be. Isn’t it beautiful when you can sing along something you fully get?


As  we are just giving you the video and not the lyrics, you should look for them the best place you can get. After you have seen at least 4 or 5 different sites, you will see there are several lyrics version of every song. You will choose the one you trust the most and will compare the sound to the lyrics and see if you can really trust. That way you will see the need of this blog. Then try to explain what the lyrics are about. If you like, you could also answer the question we came up with.

The songs are:

The Killers - Runaways




Question: Did he stay with his wife? or did he leave her and everything?


Simon & Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence




Question: What is the meaning of “I turned my collar to the cold and damp”?
