Their first album, Estopa, has sold well over 1,000,000 copies to date (the equivalent of an American platinum album) and their latest, Voces de Ultrarumba, sold more than 200,000 copies on its first day of release. Their playful, Rumba-tinged compositions have made them one of the most successful pop groups in Spanish history, in terms of both album sales and critical acclaim.

In 2005, Estopa signed a global music publishing deal with BMG Music Publishing.

The name of the group, "Estopa" (tow, in english) refers to when both brothers worked together at a SEAT automobile factory and, in their own words, a boss kept on screaming at them, "¡Dale estopa!" which means something like "Work hard!".

Estopa Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voy a plantar un inmenso jardín
De marihuana de la buena
Escribiría una canción para tí
Si te quedaras, si no te fueras

Voy a seguir construyéndome
Un barco
Ya no me basta con patalear

Charcos
Luego te llevaré a mi bello jardín
De marihuana de la buena

Te montaré en mi barco
Simularé un naufragio accidental
y patalearemos juntos todos los charcos
y volaremos siempre hacia lo mas alto
Con esas botas de agua
Que me compraron hare tiempo

Yo me creía Supermán
Pero me robaron mi sueño
Por eso voy a cantar la canción
Del olvido Entraré en tu habitación
Sin hacer mucho ruido
No te asustes no! Si sueñas
Cualquier noche con mi cara

En tu cama
Sobra espacio para dos
Solo dos
Sobran ganas, sobra tiempo
Falto yo

Luego te llevaré a mi bello
Jardín de marihuana, de la buena
Por la mañana

y patalearemos juntos
Todos los charcos del mundo
y volaremos siempre hacia lo mas alto
Al cielo mas alto

Por eso voy a cantar la canción
Del olvido Entraré en tu habitación
Sin hacer mucho ruido
No te asustes Â¡no! Si sueñas
Cualquier noche con mi cara
y luego voy a plantar

Un jardín de marihuana
De la buena, pa' tí y pa' mí

Overall Meaning

The song "Estacion Del Olvido" by Estopa speaks of the singer's desire to create something beautiful as a way of forgetting his problems. He talks about planting a huge garden of good quality marijuana and writing a song for someone if they stay with him. The singer wants to construct a ship, but not just to paddle in puddles, he wants to take his companion to his beautiful marijuana garden. He wants to simulate a shipwreck, and together they will paddle through all the puddles and soar to the highest heights with their rubber boots bought a long time ago. He admits that he once believed himself to be Superman but his dream was stolen from him. We can see that the song is all about escapism, a desire to forget and create something beautiful, to run away to a marijuana garden, and to explore life with someone special.
