After the assassination of Orozco, Romero took the group under his management. He was able to maintain the group's popularity by hiring young talents and maintaining always a new style. Romero first hired Gabriel "El Gaby" García who was physically very similar to Orozco and impersonated him, the chorus was Jean Carlos Centeno and the other was Jorgito Celedón, as well as his accordionist nephew JF "El Morre" Romero. Their debut was in Venezuela in a national popular tv show contest "Premio Orquidea" which they won that year. Binomio de Oro then recorded the first album without Orozco titled "Todo Corazón (album)" featuring Romero siting along an empty chair implying that his partner was irreplaceable. The album also featured a song by Rafael Orozco titled "Solo para ti" which became an all time hit.
In 1996 Jean Carlos Centeno and Jorgito Celedon became lead singers of the Binomio de Oro along with Romero as accordionist and his nephew after Garcia's departure. In 1999 singer Jorgito Celedon quited the group to pursue a solo career and was replaced by Junior Santiago. Later Junior Santiago and "Morre" Romero separated from the group to form their own vallenato group.
Relicario de Besos
Binomio De Oro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Otro es el sitio del lecho
Otra sangre hincha mis venas
Rompí todas las cadenas
Otro amor entró en mi pecho
Ya no doblan las campanas
Que antes doblaban por ella
Porque ahora por mi ventana
Entra la luz de otra estrella
Porque si aquel relicario de besos
Que yo te ofreciera hechas la olvido
Crucificado y temblando de rabia
Con llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido
Porque si aquel relicario de besos
Que yo te ofreciera hechas la olvido
Crucificado y temblando de rabia
Con llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido
Tengo un corazón alegre
Como una fiesta de pueblo
Pero si te vas mi negra
No habrá nada que lo alegre
Solo vestirá de duelo
Trinan pájaros cantores
Cuando el amor va naciendo
Buitres amenazadores
Vuelan sobre corazones
Si el amor se está muriendo
Porque si aquel relicario de besos
Que yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucificado y temblando de rabia
Con llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido
Porque si aquel relicario de besos
Que yo te ofreciera hechas al olvido
Crucificado y temblando de rabia
Con llanto en los ojos desbarató el nido
In "Relicario de Besos," Binomio De Oro sings about moving on from a past relationship and finding new love. The lyrics describe how the singer has changed their surroundings, emotions, and even their heart. They no longer hear the same bells that once tolled for their lost love, and they have a new source of light in their life. However, despite their newfound happiness, the singer still longs for their former love and worries about the possibility of their new love fading away. The chorus is a plea for their former love to remember the relicario de besos, or the reliquary of kisses, that they once shared.
The song symbolizes the bittersweetness of moving on from a past love. While the singer has found joy again, they still cannot forget the love they once had, and the pain of their loss is evident in the desperate plea of the chorus. The use of the imagery of birds and their songs, as well as the threat of vultures circling overhead, conveys the natural cycle of love and loss, and how each can bring joy and pain.

Soy chileno y creo que el mejor cantante de vallenato es Rafael Orozco si hubiera vivido más que te digo seria el rey del despecho
@sebastianhidalgochavarriag559
no, son géneros diferentes, eso ya es guasca, tendrías que escuchar a Dario Gómez.
