Good afternoon and welcome to a video in which I am going to interpret for you an arrangement that I have made for guitar on a song that, in case you had not heard, is world number 1 right now. It's by Shakira and in it she launches what we could call... mmm... hints? Sorry that I splashed you That in reality they should be called direct Clearly To your ex-partner because, according to what they say, he was unfaithful, it broke his heart, and as a good artist, he channels all that suffering through art to turn it into music. This song is played and mixed by Bizarrap, who is an Argentinian producer, composer and DJ. When I heard this song, the first thing I asked myself was: "what would it sound like if it had been written for classical guitar?" So I bring you an arrangement using those classical guitar techniques, from tremolo to harmonics, through strumming and arpeggios to make it shine on the guitar, even though the original song is full of synth sounds. About the song, people each have an opinion. That if it is number 1 for salsa, if not, it really is a great song... I just come to show you that she is not the only one who made music out of spite and not only in this style, but in all musical styles and at all times. From reggaeton to classical music. And we are going to see clear examples of great spiteful composers who used their music to give their ex a blow, to that person who broke their heart. Let's start with Gustav Mahler, who had 2 large stab wounds in the back to the throbbing organ. This poor thing of mine worked as a conductor in Germany and there he met Johanna Richter. He fell in love with her and although he thought he was flirting the most, eh... Mahler didn't leave the friend-zone. When he least expected it, he takes Johanna and marries someone else. I oppose! And of course, Mahler stayed... uh... mmm... doll. So he wrote not one, but 4 songs out of spite, singing phrases like "why did you have to look at me?" and asks God that he wishes he hadn't met her. And well, this does not end here, because after Johanna, Mahler met the grandson of Carl Maria von Weber, who was a legendary composer who died leaving an unfinished opera. So this man, the grandson, asked him to please finish his grandfather's opera and Mahler said: "Sure, man, come on." Total, that he began to finish the opera. And after so many times he had to go there, to this man's house, Mahler couldn't think of anything else but to fall in love with Weber's grandson's wife. Mahler, you're a disaster, my son Well, this man's wife was called Marion and he already had 3 children with him, but Mahler there pick and shovel, pick and shovel, pick and shovel, and according to what they say, it seems that they were together . That they messed up, come on. And Mahler, because he was so intense, grabbed Marion and told her: "Listen to me, you and I are going to elope." So he bought 2 train tickets and said: "Marion, I'll wait for you there." And waiting for hours and hours, Marion picks up and sends a messenger to tell her no, that she can't go, that she's staying with her family. In the end, everyone would find out, because in those days the news spread like wildfire, and Marion never wanted to know anything more about Mahler. So, Mahler took the songs he had composed for the Johanna and turned those 4 songs into his first TITAN Symphony, legendary in the History of Music. How about? He would say: "since everyone knows it, at least I get a little money." Come on, let the spiteful ones rule! Another who did not sit well with the rejection was Brahms, who composed the best-known Lullaby of all time. This lullaby sent it to a friend who had had a baby, as a gift, a composition for her baby, to put him to sleep. But, actually, it was a spiteful song because there is a hidden melody in the bass that they both sang together when they were in love. But she finally decides to marry someone else and ends up having this baby. More mythical spite songs: Two-legged rat. Filthy rat, creeping animal Legendary De Paquita la del Barrio, who also wrote it with another composer thinking of her ex-husband, who had been unfaithful to her. Another example, we go back to the Renaissance with Carlo Gesualdo, this is also terrifying. He knew that his partner was cheating on him with another. So he waited for them, caught them in the bedroom red-handed, and... uh... killed them. And since he was an aristocrat, of money, they tried him but did not condemn him despite the fact that everyone knew it was him. So he was freed and dedicated himself to composing madrigals like this one, which recounted what he had suffered for love and this whole movie. There is also Amelia's Testament, which is a popular Catalan song, and the lyrics tell how Amelia, the King's daughter, from bed, sick, about to die, is making the will and tells her mother that in inheritance What she is going to leave is her husband, because she knows that they are together secretly from her, and that she also knows that her mother has been giving her poison and that is why she is sick... a soap opera. Other great examples of spite: Lágrimas Negras, which you can also find on my channel, Cuesta Abajo, a great tango, Give me back my girl from Los Hombres G, he dedicated it to his ex-partner because he knew he would attend the festival where he played with his new boyfriend, the one she had left him for. Another mythical: Hey! by Julio Iglesias, who dedicated it to Isabel Preysler, the mother of his children, when they separated. According to Manuel Alejandro himself, he composed great songs like That Man, a cocky stupid
I'm sorry my love, I haven't felt anything doing it with you for a long time or Why don't you leave , inspired by the separation from Rocío Jurado, who at that time also came out a lot in the tabloids and everyone knew who the song was for. Isabel Pantoja also changed many lyrics of her songs even in her concerts when she wanted to throw little quips and hints "...de ti, so feísimo"
So, as you can see, Shakira is not the first nor will she be the last to dedicate to the one who broke his heart a good song to heal the wounds. Women no longer cry, women bill I hope you like my guitar arrangement of this great song, if so you can subscribe, like, tell me what you think of the song, what do you think of all this little sauce around and share the link YouTube with your friends.
