Track listing

Track Notes

As the lyrics are rather stream of consciousness, Bosé wrote a sentence or two as a dedication for certain people at the end of each song.

Te comería el corazón

• A ti que acabas de llegar...

No podré salir de este rincón más que a través de la espada y mirándote a los ojos. (To you who have just arrived in this world... I will not be able to leave except through the sword and staring at you in the eyes.)

Lo que hay es lo que ves

• A Javier, Edith & Manolo mis amigos del alma y de la carretera... y de muchas otras cosas más también. (To Javier, Edith & Manolo; my friends of the soul and highway... and many other things as well.)

Si tú no vuelves

• A la Mami y a Pablito, con ellas buscando estrellas. (To Mami and Pablito; with them looking for stars.)

Nada particular

• A Mahala, Javier, Pepe & Rafa porque con vosotros, nunca me siento en el exilio. (To Mahala, Javier & Pepe, because with them, I never feel alone.)

Mayo

• En memoria de un Mayo, revolucionario de corazón. (In memory of May, revolutionary at heart.)

Bajo el signo de Caín

• A mis hermanos Nacho el Delfín, y Nacho el de las Alas Mediterráneas. A mi Padre, el Maestro. (To my brothers Nacho the Dolphin, and Nacho the one of the Mediterranean wings. And to my father, the Maestro.)

Wako-Shaman

• A Bimba, Olfo, Nicolás & Jara... Que aprendáis a cuidar de esta tierra que es vuestra única casa. (To Bimba, Olfo, Nicolás & Jara... Learn to take care of this land, as it is your only home.)

Imagínate que te quiero

• A Lucía y Carlos por ser éste vuestro retrato cotidiano. (To Lucía and Carlos, for being this your daily picture.)

Sara

• A la Tata y a Nunu que saben mejor que nadie cuidar de todas las sarasituaciones...(To Tata and Nunu, who know better than anyone how to take care of Sara-situations...)

Sol forastero

• A Andrea...Te acuerdas? A Cecilia que me entiende. (To Andrea; do you remember? To Cecilia who understands me.)

La americana

• A Chacho y a todos mis compañeros de infancia... (To Chacho and all my childhood friends...)

Gota a gota

• A los mercenarios de rumores y calumnias, raza despreciable que ya rebosó el vaso. Quien se pique ajos coma... (To the mercenaries of rumors and catastrophes; the despicable race that makes my glass overflow.[i.e. the last straw] Those who mash garlic....eat them...)
