"Guitar, pedal, amp… this utterance might sound classical nowadays. However Nina Garcia solo project makes it unheard of. Her group mamiedaragon describes itself as "no wave no noise no tapes". Perhaps this is a sign of a post post-punk hyper removal strategy? Not yet. The apparent negativity of her arrangement overturns, or "explodes like a piñata", under the innovative pressure between fingers and metal scrap, in search of a soundwave to chisel, round off, taper and slash" (Luff 2016)
Tu Sigues Siendo el Mismo
Mariachi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que dejé yo de quererte
Y pensar que algún día
Juré amarte hasta la muerte
Pero ahora me arrepiento
De haber perdido el tiempo
Que sufrí para olvidar tus besos
Que me tuve que ir, muy lejos
Que si te quiero
Ya no te quiero
Te quise mucho
¡Cuánto te quise!
Y hoy al que amo contigo tiene un parecido
Pero es distinto
En sentimientos
Porque él es bueno y tú sigues siendo el mismo
Yo te quise como a nadie
Y jamás lo he negado
Pero ahora es muy distinto
Él me ama y yo lo amo
Él ya sabe que te quise
Y también que te he olvidado
Que sufrí para olvidar tus besos
Que me tuve que ir, muy lejos
Me enseñó también a perdonarte
Y a quererlo
Como lo quiero
Te quise mucho
¡Cuánto te quise!
Y hoy al que amo contigo tiene un parecido
Pero es distinto
En sentimientos
Porque él es bueno y tú sigues siendo el mismo

(Yo te quise mucho, cuanto te quise y hoy al que amo contigo tiene un parecido pero el es
distinto en sentimientos porque él, el es muy muy bueno mientras tú, tú sigues, sigues siendo el
mismo

The lyrics of Mariachi's song "Tu Sigues Siendo el Mismo" depict a complex emotional journey of moving on from a past love and finding new love. The singer reveals that they have stopped loving their former partner a long time ago, despite once swearing to love them until death. There is a sense of regret for the time wasted trying to forget their kisses and the pain of leaving those memories behind by going far away. The singer acknowledges that they once loved their ex-partner deeply but now find that the person they currently love bears a resemblance to them, yet differs greatly in terms of emotions and goodness.
The lyrics capture the conflicting emotions of the singer, who confesses to having loved their past partner like no one else and never denying that fact. However, they express that the current love is vastly different and reciprocated, with mutual understanding and forgiveness. There is a clear juxtaposition between the intense past love and the current relationship built on love and forgiveness. The singer highlights the growth and evolution of their feelings, from the deep love for the ex-partner to the newfound love that has a deeper connection with their current partner.
The repeated refrain emphasizes the contrast between the past and present love. The singer recognizes the similarities between their ex-partner and the current one but focuses on the stark differences in feelings and character. While the singer once loved the ex-partner immensely, they now see the goodness and love in their current partner, contrasting with the unchanged nature of their former lover. The lyrics convey a sense of closure and acceptance, acknowledging the past while embracing the present with a newfound sense of clarity and appreciation.
The use of the refrain "Lara-la-la-ra" adds a rhythmic and melodic touch to the emotional lyrics, reinforcing the sentiments expressed in the song. The repetition of the refrain serves to underscore the message of comparing past and present love, highlighting the transformation and growth in the singer's feelings. Overall, the lyrics of "Tu Sigues Siendo el Mismo" paint a poignant picture of moving on from a past love, finding new love, and recognizing the differences and similarities between the two relationships, ultimately coming to terms with the past and embracing the present with love and understanding.
