Marcellino
Luv' Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Marcellino, I have something to say
That cannot wait
Monday morning before the sun will shine
You'll find I'm really gone this time

Tell your mama
Tell you papa
Tell your sister and brothers too
Tell bambino I can't stay longer
There's so much I wanna do?

Marcellino, so goodbye
Maybe it's wrong, maybe it's right
Whatever may come
Oh, I know in the end I have lost a very best friend
So goodbye
Maybe it's wrong, maybe it's right
Whatever may come
Oh, I know in the end I have lost a very best friend

There is someone waiting for me back home
Where I belong
Yesterday the letter came at five
Telling me I need to share his life

Tell your mama
Tell you papa
Tell your sister and brothers too
Tell bambino I can't stay longer
There's so much I wanna do?

Marcellino, so goodbye
Maybe it's wrong, maybe it's right
Whatever may come
Oh, I know in the end I have lost a very best friend
So goodbye
Maybe it's wrong, maybe it's right




Whatever may come
Oh, I know in the end I have lost a very best friend

The depth of their catalog absolutely staggers the imagination. Their harmonies and choreography are unwaveringly impeccable. Yet they never let technical perfection get in the way of heart. And as Marcellino proves, Luv' mastered high drama, as well. It is definitely with in reason to rank them as one of the best vocal groups of the 20th century.

Her walking away reminds a little bit of Frida from Abba in "Knowing me Konowing you"

Наверное, Marcellino по степени душераздирания можно сравнить с песней группы Нэнси "Дым сигарет с ментолом". Только исполнение от женского лица. Та же самая обречённость, то же самое расставание с лучшим другом. Отлично, Марга! Браво, Патти! Виват, Йосе!

Great! Simply great!
