Independencia Cultural
Los Prisioneros Lyrics
El momento ha llegado de hacernos a un lado
Jugando juegos de otros nunca vamos a campeonar
Tú y yo tenemos buen gusto nada nos puede dar susto
Lo de afuera afuera, ocupemos nuestro país
Influencias, sugerencias, europeos llévense su decadencia
Advertencia, vamos a declarar
Independencia cultural
Independencia cultural
En este sitio lejano, la gente es pobre, la gente da la mano
No hay orgullos de raza, no hay colonias ni tradición
Siempre ocultando el acento no hemos sido aplaudidos ni un momento
En el colegio se enseña que cultura es cualquier cosa rara
Menos lo que hagas tú
No te disfraces, no te acomplejes
Eres precioso porque eres diferente
Grita fuerte tenemos que declarar
Independencia cultural
Independencia cultural
Ya no quiero mas Bach puagh
Porque yo siento de un modo diferente
Si la cultura es Europa, la cultura es lo caro
Pues yo quiero entenderme con la gente
No quiero ver tu pelo pintado de verde
Si la moda es Europa, si la moda es lo caro
Yo quisiera entenderme con la gente
Independencia cultural
Independencia cultural

They began as a local band during the early 1980s, playing small shows in their neighborhood and high school. After selling a limited press number of their first album in Chile under the independent Fusión producciones label, they signed to EMI in 1985, re-releasing the same album on an LP record and Cassette. From that point on they reached mainstream success in Chile, then Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. Eventually in the early 90's their albums were re-released completely in remastered Compact Disc form, this is when Chile was no longer run by a military regime which oppressed their music in the late 1980s. Throughout the 1990s their music spread out, reaching all of South and Central America as well as some parts of the U.S., Canada and Europe.
The band started when Jorge González and Miguel Tapia decided to start their own band while being high school students. They were inexperienced but enthusiastic, after many practices and writing songs, they asked Claudio Narea if he would like to join them, and impressed by the music they were making, he accepted. Towards the early 80's they went through some name changes and before settling on "Los Prisioneros" they had the name "Los Vinchukas" as their original name. In 1983, they had played a number of local shows and that's when they met Carlos Fonseca, their future manager. Through him, they managed to score a record deal with Fusión Producciones.
In 1984, the band's debut album was released, with the hit song "La Voz De Los '80" (which was never a single). They reached acclaim in the radio and by the next year they would be touring. In 1986, their long awaited second album "Pateando Piedras" went double Platinum album in Chile. By that time, the group was invited to perform at Argentina's Chateau Rock Festival and later to a similar event in Montevideo, Uruguay. They continued touring and they became more successful mainstream wise.
The band disbanded in 1992, then as a quartet with additional members Cecilia Aguayo (keyboards) and Robert Rodríguez (guitar), since Claudio Narea had left the band earlier in 1990.
The original lineup of the band decided to get back together in 2001, offering two massive concerts in the National Stadium of Santiago, and then releasing "Los Prisioneros", their first original studio album in 13 years. However, internal problems between González and Narea led again to the departure of the guitarist in 2001. Los Prisioneros continued working as a duet with guest members like Álvaro Henríquez whom with they released a cover album. In 2004 two additional musicians joined the band: Sergio "Coty" Badilla and Gonzalo Yáñez, releasing their sixth album Manzana the same year. A little while after the release of the album band members decided to establish themselves in Mexico, attempting to get more international exposure. Yáñez decided not to leave Chile and left the band. After touring through several locations in North and South America, they finally disbanded in 2006.

Hola Superanfibio!....es muy interesante lo que planteas, y tiene mucho sentido, no es ningún secreto que Gonzalez tenía bastante resentimientos...y los debe seguir teniendo. Debo decir que en los años '80 yo solo era un niño, nada más para el plebiscito yo contaba con tan solo 9 años, yo escuché esto un poco después de su contemporáneo, en los '90
Pero sabes? Ahora vuelvo a escuchar estas canciones (siempre tuve los cassettes hasta "la cultura de la basura"...y aún los conservo! ajaja) y entiendo muchas cosas. Esta canción por ejemplo, la lírica lejos de demostrarme el resentimiento de Gonzalez, me invita a reflexionar en cosas que yo viví, como decir que "cultura es cualquier cosa, menos lo que hagas tu", o llamados a la escencia de la autenticidad en mensajes como "eres precioso porque eres diferente" o "no quiero ver tu pelo pintado de verde", el mensaje es claro porque expresa el sentimiento de que no por pertenecer a alguna tribu o andar de cierta manera, en lo físico, te hace ser aceptado o valorado, si no que vale más lo que hagas por ti mismo. Precisamente por la experincia de Gonzalez es que arroja este desbordante mensaje a nuestra juventud en la realidad que estaba viviendo, estaba consciente de que es innegable que la sociedad europea es una sociedad ya bastante decadente, en cuanto a su sociología, porque es lógico en un grupo humano avanzado en edad y desarrollo. Solo ahora en algunos países de latinoamérica estamos entendiendo ciertos conceptos, de ahí políticas de gobierno como el fomento a la formación y el incentivo a la familia, y también políticas especiales para adultos mayores.
Debemos entender también el concepto cuando dice "si la cultura es de europa, si la cultura es lo caro, pues quisiera entenderme con la gente"...se da cuenta de que en esa actualidad (y también hoy, pero ya menos) el acceso a la cultura era visto si no menos lejano, en una sociedad marginada a aceptar y estudiar lo introducido por las potencias de occidente que consiguieron el control del continente luego de las grandes guerras en resumen. De ahí se puede desprender lo que existe entre la imposición cultural (como todo imperialismo) y lo que cada pueblo individual siente y quiere expresar de forma autónoma; por eso también comprendemos mensajes como "maldito sudaca, maldito latino" o "we are south american rockers", entendiendo siempre el cotexto irónico.
En este aspecto, ahora entiendo que el trabajo de Gonzalez, como medio de expresar la realidad de su pueblo fué genial. Hace 30 años atrás Gonzalez trataba de decir algo que ahora, solo ahora recién empezamos a reflexionar.
Un saludo amigo!

@chrisvagabond he escrito eso hace años cuando tenía una perspectiva mucho más limitada... estoy de acuerdo con el mensaje general de la canción, pero no con eso de que "no necesitamos banderas".
chrisvagabond
@Cristálido Gonzalez no creo que se refiera a patriotismo, si no mas bien a dejar que de afuera nos dicten lo que es cultura.
De nacionalismo nada, porque "No necesitamos banderas"

@Cristálido yo creo que va mas hacia lo nacionalista teniendo en cuenta que en este disco jorge escribio cosas muy nacionalistas

Los Prisioneros la banda más representativa del amor y la rabia Latinoamericana!
