Montevideo are a Spanish-Argentinian band who have been playing ‘pop’ since 2002. That year, Damiana and Manu gave up other musical projects to focus on this new band with 3 albums released by Jabalina Musica Records for the Spanish and South-American independent pop music market: "Ella y Él"(ep 2005), "Transoceánico" (cd 2006), "Cuando miramos al sur" (cd 2008).
Now, the ‘family’ has grown up to 5 members, having joined the band Arturo (electric guitar and ukelele), Alexis (electric and acoustic guitar) and Miguel. These and other changes have made Montevideo to take new musical ways so they put an end to the former stage and their ‘transoceanic’ trilogy.
Then, with renewed energy and ideas, the band is looking for their own slot by composing songs ready to be played live on different shows and stages, which are the places where Montevideo can be now considered an actual band.
Damiana : bass &voice
Manu : synths & voice

Montevideo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se miró al espejo y cambió la estación
Que había puesto yo
El ritmo cambio
De rápido a lento
En voz alta pensó
Me encanta esa canción
Hablamos en silencio
Oyendo disco eterno
En un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
En un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
Siete pasos dio, la luz apago
Y me dijo así es mejor
Es mucha distracción
Todo alrededor desapareció
Solo quedamos dos
Girando tornasol
Hablamos en silencio
Oyendo disco eterno
Y en un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
En un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
Y en un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
Y en un loop nos miramos
Hasta besarnos bailando
The lyrics of Montevideo's song "Loop" paints a picture of a moment shared between two people. The first verse depicts one person arriving at a shared location, glancing in the mirror and changing the radio station to a song that they both love. As the beat changes from fast to slow, they speak in silence and listen to eternal disco music. The chorus then repeats the phrase "in a loop we watched each other, until we kissed while dancing." The second verse describes the two people turning off the lights, realizing that everything around them has disappeared, leaving only the two of them as they spin around like a 'tornasol', which translates to a "turning" or "revolving sunflower."
The lyrics evoke a sense of intimacy and privacy, as if the two people are the only ones who exist in the world. The phrase "loop" implies a never-ending cycle, suggesting that this moment is something that they could enjoy forever. The song highlights the power of music to bring people together and create a memorable moment.
