Cabas released his self-titled album, "Cabas", in 2000, which he hoped to be popular and joyful. It became a huge success in Colombia, where his single Mi Bombón (My Lollipop) lead the charts of radio stations for three consecutive months, earning him a Gold Disc and a double Platinum disc. To boost his success, Cabas begins a tour around Colombia, and reaches out to Venezuela and Ecuador, where he became highly popular among both the young and the old, because of the eclectic mixture of cumbia and rock in his songs. His playful and warm personality can be seen during his performances.
In 2002, Cabas began to promote his music in Latin America and the United States, receiving good reviews and even a feature article in the Billboard magazine. Cabas has shared his stage with stars such as Lenny Kravitz in Mexico, and Shakira and Miguel Bosé in Spain.
In 2003, his second album Contacto (Contact), redefined his style. Contacto mixed percussion and drums with bass and rock beats, and his first single, La Caderona (The Big-hipped Woman) recalled Mi Bombón's success. Cabas' first music video, from the song Leche (Milk), premiered around this time on MTV Latin America. Other singles such as Bolita de Trapo (Little Ball of Rags) also led the charts in Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador. Cabas has recently been promoting his music in France.
His participation in a tribute concert to the legendary musician Carlos Santana increased his exposure. Cabas won the Latin Grammy Award for Best New Artist, the MTV Latin Awards for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Interpretation, and the People's Price and Best Rock Video in the Lo Nuestro Awards.
On 2005, Cabas released his third album, Puro Cabas (Pure Cabas), which proved to be yet another huge success. Cabas' first single, La Cadena de Oro (The Gold Locket), was a major hit in Latin America, along with its music video that stayed MTV's top ten for quite a while. This hit was followed immediately by his second single, Increíble (Incredible).
No Dejo De Pensar En Ti
Cabas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Paso la vida girando y girando
Y ya no se ni en que vuelta ando
Ni en que momento saliste volando
Mi unico amor
Todos me dicen que estas muy lejos
Que me olvide ya de tus besos
Te buscare en cada esquina
En cada entrada, en cada salida y hasta no verte no descansare porque
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
Paso los dias pensando pensando
Y mi cabeza no admite descanzo
En que momento me enamore tanto
De ti mi amor
Por mas que muera en el intento
De sacarte de mis pensamientos
Mi corazon es terco y te reclama
Te buscare en cada esquina
En cada entrada, en cada salida y hasta no verte no descansare porque
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti
Tanto que ya no puedo ni comer mi dormir
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti
No puedo, no puedo, no puedo
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti
Tanto que ya no puedo ni comer mi dormir
No dejo de pensar en ti
No dejo de pensar en ti, no dejo
No dejo de pensar en ti
No puedo, no puedo, no puedo
The song "No Dejo De Pensar En Ti" by Cabas is a melancholic love ballad about someone who cannot stop thinking about the person they love. The lyrics convey the message that even though life goes on, the singer's mind is stuck in the past, constantly thinking about their lost love. The song opens with the lines "Paso la vida girando y girando/ Y ya no se ni en que vuelta ando" which translates to "Life goes around and around/ And I no longer know which turn I'm on". This juxtaposition between the monotonous routine of life and the singer's inability to move past their love is a recurring theme in the song.
As the song progresses, the singer talks about how everyone tells them that their love is far away and to forget about them, but they cannot seem to let go. The line "Mis noches sin ti nunca se acaban" translates to "My nights without you never end" and is a testament to the singer's deep longing for their love. The chorus repeats the phrase "No dejo de pensar en ti" which translates to "I can't stop thinking about you" adding to the overall sense of obsession with the lost love.
The second verse is similar to the first, talking about how the singer's mind cannot rest even during the day. They mention how they do not care whether or not others think they are crazy for holding on to their love. The repetition of the phrase "te buscare en cada esquina" which means "I will search for you on every corner" emphasizes the singer's determination to find their love no matter what. The song ends with the singer conceding that they cannot stop thinking about their love and that it is affecting their daily life, even making it difficult to eat and sleep.
