Con el paso de los años, la banda ha logrado definir un sonido que la caracteriza y diferencia de las demás bandas de rock uruguayo. Paralelamente a esto, no es solo el sonido característico el que diferencia a esta banda de las demás, sino también su público. Hereford no se ha caracterizdo por ser una banda que mueva masas. Ha logrado, en cambio, un público bastante familiar que se reencuentra en cada show.
A Las Diez
Hereford Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A las diez sirvio la cena
Y esperamos que el llegara
No importaba el vino
Ella hablo lo suficiente
Y yo aprendi a cerrar la boca
El se fue un domingo
Se durmió sobre su foto
Y penso que eso era todo
Sin sentir lo mismo
Poco a poco fui creciendo
Y no faltaron dias largos
Y brinde siete veces
Solo por los buenos tiempos
Y lo espero
Ya pasaron nueve años
Y esta vez saldo su deuda
Y salio caminando
A tirar su cruz al fuego
Y no lo espara
"A Las Diez" by Hereford is a song that delves into the complexities of love and loss. The song starts off with the image of a couple having dinner together, waiting for someone to arrive. The singer talks of how it didn't matter what wine they were drinking, as long as they were together. However, the person they were waiting for left suddenly without even saying goodbye. The chorus repeats the phrase "Y lo espero" which means "And I wait for him", highlighting the longing and hopefulness that still exists despite the heartbreak.
The second verse reveals that the person they were waiting for has passed away, and the singer reflects on how they have grown and learned to cope in the years since. They mention how they have had to endure long days without their loved one, but also celebrate the good times they shared. The final line, "Y lo espero", is once again repeated, showing that even after all this time, the singer is still waiting for their loved one.
