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.
Audrey
Los Piratas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Un impulso que se esconde
Impaciente en mis bolsillos
Al mirarte lo que lleva
Tu camisa cuando notas
Mi aliento en tus oidos
Ya lo oscuro se estremece
Algo crudo se protege
Y aunque tu sabes bien que la vida
Es todo conocerse
Quiero lamerte, suplicarte
Ver la sombra que proyecta
Cada poro de tu cuerpo
Dibujado en las cortinas
Se deslizan por encima
De saliva y terciopelo
Si yo te giro para verte
Y el humo me intoxica
Recorriendo los caminos
Respirando los latidos
Se que deseas hacerme cosas
Como nudos de cereza
Navegando de tu boca
Hasta el centro de la tierra
These lyrics talk about a burning desire that the singer feels when he is around the person he is addressing the song to, Audrey. He describes feeling an impulse that is hiding impatiently in his pockets and how he feels as though something crude is protecting it. He knows that life is all about getting to know each other, but at the same time, he wants to lick her, implore her, and see shadows on her body parts. The singer wants to see Audrey's body pores' shadows drawn on curtains as they slither above the saliva and velvet.
The second verse describes how the singer becomes intoxicated with the smoke that pervades the air around Audrey, and he feels like he is traversing paths while listening to his heartbeat. He feels like Audrey desires to do things to him, like cherry knots that navigate from her mouth to the center of the earth. These lyrics evoke a feeling of intense desire between two people.
