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).
Primer Amor
Cabas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ser el primero en amarte
Ser el primero en llegar y el ultimo en alejarme
Ser el primero en tu via
El primero en decirte la verdad
Que nunca vas a encontrar a alguien que como yo te ame...
Ser el primero en tus filas
El primero en enfrentar lo que daño pueda causarte
Ser el primero en tu via
El primero en decirte la verdad
Que nunca vas a encontrar a alguien que como yo te ame...
Ser el primero en tu vida...
The lyrics of Cabas's Primer Amor convey a message of being the first and only love of someone's life. The singer expresses his desire to be the first one in his lover's life, to love her before anyone else, to be the first to arrive and the last to leave. He also wants to be her protector, the first one to defend her in her battles and to face any harm that may come her way. He claims that he will always be truthful to her, and she will never find someone who loves her as he does. The repeated phrase "Ser el primero" (to be the first) emphasizes the singer's strong desire to be the only one in his loved one's life.
The lyrics are straightforward and nostalgic, conveying a sentiment of first love and the desire to be the only one in someone's life. The song employs a simple rhyme scheme and a repetitive chorus, which makes it easy to sing along and memorize. The use of repetition also reinforces the message of being the first and only one in someone's life.

Una muy linda canción. Después de escucharla varias veces llegué a la conclusión que a la única persona a la que debo dedicársela de cuando en cuando es a mí mismo.

Bien dicho!! 👏👏

Para mi es la canción perfecta para mi bebe que viene en camino. El verdadero amor... creo que nada supera el amor de los padres!!! Siempre lo senti asi desde el primer dia q la escuche.
Fernanda Fortíz
Esta canción me la dedicaron y la menosprecie por qué yo no sentía lo mismo. Ahora la escucho y estoy segura de que es mejor ser amada a ser quien ame. En fin yo únicamente podria dedicarla a mi pequeño hijo por qué bueno ese amor me va a durar hasta que me muera. Y ahí si no me importa dar sin medida 💖
