In the beginnin… Read Full Bio ↴Love of Lesbian is a Spanish indie pop/indie rock band.
In the beginning they were influenced by The Cure (they toured with them in Spain), Radiohead and R.E.M. Today they have the personal Love of Lesbian sound and style. There is always a "sold out" at all their concerts. Each one is a mix of party-concert-celebration-catharsis.
Santi Balmes, the writer, main composer, and charismatic leader brings to each album excellent lyrics of high composition, from a delicious sense of humour to deep emotional tales. Their first three albums are sung in English, but their more acclaimed album is Maniobras de Escapismo (2005), the first sung in Spanish. With "Cuentos Chinos Para Niños Del Japón" (2007) they confirm again the band in the scene.
In 2009 (March 24) , they publish "1999 (o como generar incendios de nieve con una lupa enfocada a la luna)" a concept album that tells, 10 years later, the life of a relationship between a boy and a girl during 1999 (the year of their first album). It includes songs to dance to, to listen to in intimacy or just to think about.
Videoclips are another face of the LOL experience; the first video of "1999..." is "Club de fans de John Boy" and the second one is "Te hiero mucho (Historia del amante guisante)" both directed by the influent director Lyona, who also directed "Universos Infinitos" from "Cuentos chinos para niños del Japón".

Cuando diga ya
Love of Lesbian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Así es el juego y digo ya
Hoy es así por todas las veces que has jugado a matar
Cuando diga ya descenderán
Mis dedos a tu vientre y ya
Cuéntalos bien, me quedan nueve para profundizar
Tan solo una vez, yo
Quiero que me grites más adentro
Y no te pienso avisar
Lo creas o no, yo
Voy a decidir el gran momento
Más fuerte y dentro
Más fuerte y dentro
Cuando diga ya tú caerás
Más bajo que el infierno
Y ya estoy aquí, tú me enviaste y ahora estamos en paz
Cuando diga ya manos atrás
Laten tus labios gritan ya
Arrástrate, dile a ese imbécil que te gusta en verdad
Hoy voy a hacerte esperar
Tan solo una vez, yo
Quiero que me grites más adentro
Y no te pienso avisar
Lo creas o no, yo
Voy a decidir el gran momento
Más fuerte y dentro
Más fuerte y dentro
The song "Cuando diga ya" by Love of Lesbian tells a story of dominance and submission in a sexual encounter. The lyrics refer to the power dynamic between two people, where one person is taking control and the other is submitting to their will. The phrase "cuando diga ya" (when I say yes) is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the importance of giving and receiving consent in a sexual relationship. The lines "hoy es así por todas las veces que has jugado a matar" (today is like this because of all the times you played at killing) suggest that the person taking control has been hurt or betrayed in the past, and is now using their power in a sexual situation as a way to regain control and get revenge.
The chorus "hoy voy a hacerte esperar, tan solo una vez yo, quiero que me grites más adentro" (today I'm going to make you wait, just this once I want you to shout deeper inside me) suggests that the singer is testing their partner's patience and exploring their own desires. The lines "no te pienso avisar, voy a decidir el gran momento, más fuerte y dentro" (I'm not going to warn you, I'm going to decide the big moment, stronger and deeper) indicate that the singer is taking charge and making decisions about the sexual encounter, and expects their partner to follow their lead.
Overall, the song "Cuando diga ya" by Love of Lesbian portrays a complex and powerful dynamic between two people in a sexual relationship, with the theme of power and control intertwining with the importance of consent and communication.
