Their first album was "Los Piratas", a live record, followed by "Quiero hacerte gritar", their first studio album. Later on they would release "Poligamia" and "Manual para los fieles". Their next album, "Fin de la primera parte" (end of the first part), was a special album that recapped their best songs and marked a changed towards much more complex style.
After this came "Ultrasónica" (later re-released with an extra disc of rarities titled "Sesiones perdidas") and their last studio album, "Relax", re-released again later on with three rarities discs: "Inerte", "Respuestas" and "Dinero".
Their last album was recorded during their last concert in Madrid, and was called "Fin de la segunda parte" (end of second part), thus completing the circle and their career.
They split up in 2004. Iván Ferreiro and Alfonso Román (Fon Roman) started their own solo career.
Ansiedad
Los Piratas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Estoy intentado encontrar las palabras
Que te cuenten lo que me pasa
Cada vez que lo escucho
Cuando las encuentre serán todas tuyas
Casi como yo
Casi como yo
Impotencia, ansiedad, melancolía, enojo,
Desconcierto, deseo, intensidad
Me pasé el día sintiendo los aeropuertos
Impotencia, ansiedad, melancolía, enojo,
Desconcierto, deseo, intensidad
Me pasé el día sintiendo los aeropuertos
Estoy intentado encontrar las palabras
Estoy intentado encontrar las palabras
Estoy intentado encontrar las palabras
The lyrics to Los Piratas's song Ansiedad describe the struggle of trying to convey intense emotions through words. The singer is attempting to find the right words to express what they feel every time they hear the song. The repetition of the line "Estoy intentado encontrar las palabras" (I'm trying to find the words) emphasizes the difficulty of expressing emotions that are so powerful and overwhelming. The singer knows that once they find the right words, they will belong entirely to the person they are speaking to.
The list of emotions in the second stanza includes "impotence, anxiety, melancholy, anger, confusion, desire, intensity." These emotions are all intense and can be difficult to communicate effectively. The repeated line "Me pasé el día sintiendo los aeropuertos" (I spent the day feeling the airports) may indicate a sense of being lost or disjointed, as airports can be overwhelming and represent transitions from one place to another.
