The band eventually broke up in 1996 and Bunbury started his solo career in 1997 with a techno album, Radical Sonora with his new band: Copi (piano), del Moran (bass), Ramón Gacias (drums) and former Héroes del Silencio guitarrist Alan Boguslavsky.
Recognized by his wish to always reinvent himself, Bunbury released in 1999 the album Pequeño, which sounded much different than anything he did before. His band also suffered changes, Boguslavsky was replaced by Rafa Domínguez, and the new faces, Ana Belén Estaje (violin), Luis Miguel Romero (percussion), Javier Iñigo, Javier García Vega & Antonio Ríos in the metal instruments.
This band was known as the "Huracán Ambulante" ("Rambling Hurricane") and recorded with Bunbury the rest of his solo discography, (except Antonio Ríos).
In 2005, after 8 years together, Bunbury dissolved the band and declared that will record a new album in 2006 only with his voice and a piano. Nevertheless, in early 2006 he recorded an album with spanish artist Nacho Vegas by the name of El tiempo de las cerezas.
His old band, Héroes del Silencio, reunited in 2007 for a short tour which visited Latin America, United States and Spain.
Doscientos Huesos Y Un Collar De Calaveras
Enrique Bunbury Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Para que sepa volver y volverte a encontrar
Deja que pueda traer alivio a tu boca tonight
Y no desaproveches una buena erección
Cada palabra tuya cual imagen de bota
Y la lluvia cayendo por el borde de mi sombrero
Y empapándote todita tu camiseta
Destinos cruzados
Mi habilidad de jerbo para no mentir más de la cuenta
Y para construirte una suite en campo-santo
Carnaval de carne y vendaval
Y tu mente como una colmena en secreta actividad
Mis pensamientos paralizan mi voluntad
Y tú regando mi jardín un día de lluvia torrencial
La mejor compañía para estados de ánimo peligrosos
Destinos cruzados
Y yo que dormido a tu lado puedo afirmar
Que hasta las pequeñas discusiones
Fueron contigo algo estupendo
Destinos cruzados
Y yo que dormido a tu lado puedo afirmar
Que hasta las pequeñas discusiones
Fueron contigo algo estupendo
Tus doscientos huesos y un collar de calaveras
The lyrics of Doscientos Huesos Y Un Collar De Calaveras by Enrique Bunbury are full of imagery and metaphors to describe a relationship that is intense, passionate, and complicated. The first verse refers to the physical body of the person being addressed as "your two hundred bones and a necklace of skulls," implying that they are tough and strong but also perhaps a bit dark and dangerous. The line "so that I know how to come back and find you again" suggests that this person is not easy to be with, but the singer is willing to put in the effort.
The second verse continues with metaphors that describe the words and actions of the person being addressed, as well as the weather and their clothing. The line "a good verse might be the brave side of a coward" implies that the person is not perfect, but their imperfections are what make them interesting and worth pursuing. The third verse takes a darker turn, with references to death and a cemetery, but also with a sense that the singer is willing to be with this person through the good times and the bad.
