These days the world has been moved by the intemperate singing of Shakira In collaboration with bizarre, Music session no. 53. At the center of attention, it is known, this time there is the former footballer Gerard Piqué.
The immediate impact, the millions of listeners within hours, drives us irresistibly to do justice to other major resentment hits. A Top Ten of anger and catharsis.
Blood on the Rails (Bob Dylan)
“The day you left I lay here bleeding / While you were feeding on your numbness, I always prayed for your recovery… I’m trying to remind you of everything you forgot…”
the classic album Blood on the tracks by Bob Dylan is an example of a sensational theme for popular music. Resentment is a “king” that is frowned upon, but is still valid. So do like old Bob: don’t be ashamed of that love.
Two-legged mouse (Paquita la del Barrio)
No one will overcome the monumental spite of the incomparable Paquita la del Barrio and her Two-legged mouse:
“Dirty rat/crawler/dregs of life/bad eyesore…”. It seems that when played backwards, Shakira’s song clearly says “two-legged mouse, I’m talking to you.”
Connoisseurs say the Shakira and BZRP session lyrics are a Two-legged mouse more modern.
And how is he? (Jose Luis Perales)
A lot of bachata with the addict Shakira, but the truth is that you should learn from José Luis Perales, who wrote the best hymn to the resigned cuckold:
“And how is he? Where did he fall in love with you? Where does he come from? What does he do in his spare time?”
It was said to be a song for the daughter. Rejection. You composed it for Julio Iglesias, the real outcast in this story. Julio’s manager commissioned the song when Isabel Preysler married the Marquis de Griñón.
Grudge (July insipid)
By far, the best spite song, in its best version, according to Juan José Campanella himself.
“The grudge, my old grudge / Let me forget / The cowardly betrayal / Can’t you see that I can’t take it anymore / That I’ve already dried up / From crying so much / Let me live again / And forget the pain / That yesterday made me slapped / Grudge, I want to go back / To be what I was / I want to live”, is heard in the unique voice of the Tango Man.
And yes, naughty songs have humanized tango.
Melody (Rolling Stones)
“Melody, that was her middle name Melody/I came home one morning around a quarter to three/I’m knocking on my door ’cause I just lost my key/Open up, baby, you’ve got someone else inside…”
And it turns out that the girl in question was in the arms of her best friend. The auction is a masterpiece of machismo illustrated: “Then I’ll have the pleasure of roasting her alive,” sings a fierce Mick Jagger.
My baby left me (Elvis Presley)
“Yes, my baby left me, she never said a word/ Was it something I did, something she felt?/ My baby even left me, she never said a word (…) Now , I’m at my window, wringing my hands and moaning.All I know is that the one I love is gone.
Grudge is like the pain of a wound that needs to heal. Nice song. It still gives chills and goosebumps.
Forget me and turn around (Pimpernel)
The Galán brothers and their biggest hit of the 80s. Forget me and turn around It was the theme that launched them throughout Latin America. One day you are young and the next day you like Pimpinela. That’s life, man.
“Who is it? It’s me. What are you looking for? You. It’s already late. Why? Because now it’s me who wants to be without you.”
For many, this song alone is more than the entire reggaeton story. So captivating that even if no one has ever cheated on you, you can feel identified as if they have.
La Tonta (Baron Jimena)
Clean the house while you listen The fool and it sounds great as a soundtrack. Suddenly you feel like the resentment is taking over. How can we forget that Jimena Barón wrote this to Daniel Osvaldo and then cooked him gnocchi in full quarantine!
We all have a friend like Jimena: she tells you she’s already left and when you least expect it she comes back with the “toxic”.
You should know (Alanis Morissette)
Let’s not forget that the mother of all these mischief is You should know.
“Is she naughty like me? Would you fuck her in a theater? Does she speak eloquently? Would she have your baby?…”
Self-help argument heard in group therapy: “This woman got me through some of my most miserable times.” “She pulled me out of the anger I had against my husband.” “When I have tough times, Alanis is my only option.”
Of what I am to you (Camarón de la Isla)
“The world will bear witness to what I am to you / What you make of me / You will have to repent / Loving you I curse you”.
Those connoisseurs of various humiliations say that the key to flamenco in these lines is in the “loving you I curse you”. It would be something like being “good” and becoming “bad”.
“What I am suffering / For your affection / I have you in my thoughts / For you I cry like a child / Because I still love you….”
