He got involved in music in the early 1980s, making his debut in a high school band called Apocalipsis, and later played along with Proceso Entrópico. In 1984 Bunbury joined a group called Zumo de Vidrio, debuting as a lead vocalist. After adopting the nickname of Bunbury, taken from an Oscar Wilde novel, the musician teamed up with Héroes del Silencio, becoming a major number in the Spanish rock scene.

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.

No se fie
Enrique Bunbury Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No se fíe de una rubia
Que sea además oxigenada
No le de nunca la espalda
Que a la mínima le clava
Una estaca así de larga
Y le traspasa el corazón

No se fíe que es mejor

Conservar el esqueleto
Aunque sea bien escueto
Se enamoró ya se expuesto
Dese por muerto
Vaya diciendo el último adiós

No se fíe de una dama
Que le rechaza una grapa
Será soberbia y chulapa
Fresa, arpía y beata
Una persona non-grata
A la que falta un hervor

No se fíe de una baby
Pelirroja, peligrosa
Estratega a la sombra
Dura como una roca
Puede cantar derrota
Que no se deja querer

No se fíe de una dama
Que le rechaza una grapa
Será soberbia y chulapa
Fresa, arpía y beata
Una persona non-grata
A la que falta un hervor

No se fíe de una buera
Tampoco de una mulata
De una negra o asiática
Sea señora o muchacha

Si son personas non-gratas
Que no entienden de amor

Overall Meaning

The song "No se fie" by Enrique Bunbury warns the listener against trusting certain types of women. The lyrics begin with a warning about blondes who bleach their hair, advising the listener not to turn their back on them or risk being stabbed in the heart with a long stake. This sets the tone for the rest of the song as Bunbury continues to caution against various types of women who are not to be trusted.

He advises the listener to beware of women who reject them, as they are likely to be arrogant and difficult to deal with. The lyrics also warn against women who are dangerous and calculating, as well as women from various racial and ethnic backgrounds who lack an understanding of love. Bunbury delivers this warning in a playful and sarcastic tone, as if acknowledging the absurdity of trying to generalize about an entire group of people.
