The band, which collaborated with some music stars such as Debbie Harry, Mick Jones, Celia Cruz, Rubén Blades and Fishbone, received the MTV Latino Video Music Award in 1994 for the single "Matador", in what probably was the peak of popularity of the band. On September 29 of that year they produced an MTV Unplugged concert. The Cadillacs also won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album, and were nominated in the 2000 Latin Grammy Awards for Best Band and Best Music Video ("La Vida"), which received the now-defunct International Viewer's Choice Award (Southern Region) at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.
Soledad
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
en un dÃa frÃo de Buenos Aires
te hice llorar, cuanto lo siento
perdóname amor no quise lastimarte
no te das cuenta
que vos sos lo que más quiero
why eso me hare sentir
un chico afortunado
fui con vos violento
ahora me muero de ganas
de abrazarte
Soledad, Soledad, Soledad
Te lo ruego olvidemos esta noche
que tus ojos
no se cubran más de lágrimas
te hice mal - cuanto lo siento
perdóname amor no quise lastimarte
Soledad, Soledad, Soledad
The lyrics of Los Fabulosos Cadillacs's song "Soledad" showcases a relationship between two lovers that is crumbling apart. "Soledad" in Spanish means "solitude" or "loneliness" and it is a recurring theme throughout the song. The singer pleads with his partner not to leave him on a cold day in Buenos Aires, regretting making her cry and apologizing for hurting her. He confesses how much he loves her and how fortunate he feels for being with her, but also confesses to being violent towards her on this particular night, and now he cannot wait to hold her in his arms again.
The song captures the raw, honest and complex emotions of a couple whose love is teetering on the brink of collapse. The singer's desperate pleas, regrets, and apologies are contrasted with the melancholic tone that is pervasive throughout the song. The use of the word "Soledad" within the repetition of the chorus adds an element of symbolism, emphasizing the loneliness that both lovers feel despite being together.
In conclusion, "Soledad" is a beautifully crafted song that captures the complexities of love and the pain that comes with the end of a relationship. The raw emotion, compelling lyrics and melancholic tone make it a timeless classic in Latin American music.
