The ensemble consists of four clarinets, three trumpets, a tambora, a tarola, a tuba (Sousaphone style), three trombones, and three singers.
Banda el Recodo was founded by Don Cruz Lizárraga from Sinaloa, Mexico. Although he had to drop out of high school to work, Lizárraga was an excellent bandleader and musician. Self-taught on the clarinet, he was forced to sell one of his hogs to pay for his new musical instrument. Once he moved to Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Lizarraga signed a deal with RCA Victor and soon formed Banda el Recodo. Since his death in 1995, Lizarraga's son has taken over the group and undertaken extensive international tours. Today, Banda el Recodo continues to be one of the most famous and most popular Mexican folk music bands of all time

Banda El Recodo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No hay futuro no hay amor
No quedan rastros de pasión
Y la emoción nos dijo adiós
Ya no debemos seguir
Si en nosotros ojos hay maldad
Siempre luchando por lograr ser el que gane el que lastime mas
Yo por me parte hoy doblo las manos
Porque los dos perdemos mas
Si no nos separamos
Para que seguir moliendonos la vida
Para que dañarnos siempre si medida
Abortando el miedo de causar heridas
Y despedazarnos como dos suicidas
Para que seguir si ya no viene caso
Todo entre tu y yo siempre sera un fracaso
Decirnos adiós es la mejor salida
Antes de que el odio gane la partida
Se que entre tu y yo
No hay futuro no hay amor
No quedan rastros de pasión
Y la emoción nos dijo adiós
Yo por me parte hoy doblo las manos
Tiro la toalla pues nada ganamos
Porque los dos perdemos mas
Si no nos separamos
Para que seguir moliendonos la vida
Para que dañarnos siempre si medida
Abortando el miedo de causar heridas
Y despedazarnos como dos suicidas
Para que seguir si ya no viene caso
Todo entre tu y yo siempre sera un fracaso
Decirnos adiós es la mejor salida
Antes de que el odio gane la partida
Para que seguir
The lyrics of Banda El Recodo's song Para Que Seguir speak about a relationship that has lost its spark and is beyond repair. The singer acknowledges that there is no future or love between the two of them and that their passion has died out. The emotion that was once there between them has disappeared, and they no longer can continue on with the relationship. The singer realizes that there is no point in continuing on with this person, especially if there is such negative energy between them.
The lyrics emphasize the need to end things before they get worse. The couple fights each other and tries to see who can hurt the other more. If they continue on with this mindset, they will only lose more in the end. It's better for both parties to accept the fact that things are not meant to be and to move on with their lives. The chorus repeats the question "para que seguir" meaning "why continue" and highlights that it's best to say goodbye before hatred takes over.
Overall, Para Que Seguir presents a message of letting go and moving on from a relationship that is no longer healthy. It encourages individuals to recognize when something is no longer worth fighting for and to focus on their own happiness.

Se que entre tu y yo
No hay futuro no hay amor
No quedan rastros de pasión
Y la emoción nos dijo adiós
I know between us, there's no future or love left. There are no traces of passion, and our emotions have already left us.
Ya no debemos seguir
Si en nosotros ojos hay maldad
Siempre luchando por lograr ser el que gane el que lastime mas
Yo por me parte hoy doblo las manos
Tiro la toalla pues nada ganamos
Porque los dos perdemos mas

We shouldn't continue if we have ill intentions towards each other. Always fighting to be the one who wins or hurts the most. For my part, I'm giving up and admitting we're not gaining anything. If we don't separate, we'll both lose more.
Para que seguir moliendonos la vida
Para que dañarnos siempre si medida
Abortando el miedo de causar heridas
Y despedazarnos como dos suicidas
Para que seguir si ya no viene caso
Todo entre tu y yo siempre sera un fracaso
Decirnos adiós es la mejor salida
Antes de que el odio gane la partida
Why continue to grind ourselves down? Why hurt each other without limits? Let's stop before we cause more damage and destroy ourselves like two suicidal people. It's pointless to continue when everything between us will always be a failure. Saying goodbye is the best way out before hate wins.
