1. A Spanish pop band founded in 1981
2. A Dutch Post-Punk/ New Wave band founded in 1978
(1)The Spanish Mecano began as a Spanish language synth-pop (in Spanish música tecno) band from Madrid, Spain. Brothers Nacho Cano and José María Cano, along with singer Ana Torroja, formed the band in 1981. Mecano’s debut coincided with La Movida Madrileña, a sociocultural movement that occurred in Spain during the 1980’s.
Soon after forming, they achieved wide-spread popularity with their debut single, “Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar”. Nacho Cano branched out into producing other bands, and both he and his brother wrote songs for other pop up-starts. Mecano had another hit in 1986 with “Me Cuesta Tanto Olvidarte”. In 1991, the band members decided to set out on solo careers.
Prior to their international success in 1986, Mecano had three successful albums in Spain and Europe. However, it was not until the release of their 1986 album, Entre el Cielo y el Suelo that they achieved international success beyond the Spanish-speaking world. One of their most important songs, “Hijo de la Luna”, was covered as an aria by one of Opera’s greatest contemporary singers, Montserrat Caballé. Their follow-up album, Descanso Dominical, produced their biggest single ever, “Mujer Contra Mujer”, which deals with a lesbian relationship, seen through the eyes of a male friend, who only later realizes what is going on. The song was recorded in French, English, and Italian, giving Mecano their first truly global hit.
2. Mecano is a Dutch Punk/New Wave band founded in 1977 by Dirk Polak. Post-Punk from 1978 to mid 80's, a break, but now alive again. Official site: http://www.mecano.ws/
Ay Que Pesado
Mecano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Siempre pensando en el pasado
No te lo pienses demasiado
Que la vida esta esperando
Ay, que pesado, que pesado
Siempre pensando en el pasado
No te lo pienses demasiado
Que la vida esta esperando
Cuanto tiempo haré falta
Para que borres las heridas
Que te hiciste en el amor
Cuantas veces te he dicho
Que solo tu tienes la llave
Que abre y cierra el dolor
Mira que hemos hablado
Que los recuerdos son mentiras
Y que inundan la razón
No hay que esperar milagros
Porque tampoco los pedías
Cuando hiciste el amor
No debiste hacer planes
Tu no decides el futuro
Cuando se trata de dos
Mira que hemos hablado
Que los recuerdos son mentiras
Y que inundan la razón
No hay que esperar milagros
Porque tampoco los pedías
Cuando hiciste el amor
No debiste hacer planes
Tu no decides el futuro
Cuando se trata de dos
Mira que hemos hablado
Que los recuerdos son mentiras
Y que inundan la razón
