2) An New York, USA acoustic alt-country / folk rock quintet of two sets of brothers and a wife: ex-Awek Paul Schalda (vocals, guitar), ex-The Realistics Will Schalda (keyboards), Paul's wife Maggie Schalda (vocals, keyboard), Michael Strandberg (guitar, bass, lap steel) and William Strandberg (drums). Their début album was "Half the Time" (Oct 2006, Curb Appeal) and their latest is "Here I Am" (11 Feb 2011, Unit Records).
Paul has a ghost's voice, an old haunted soul that shivers its way up through his mouth to share its cracked-glasses view of the world with those of us lucky enough to listen. The band is the vehicle for that voice and the lives it's lived. Previously heard draped over the Pavement-influenced treble clang of outer-borough indie rock heroes Awek, Schalda's distinct and affecting vocals stand at the band's center, drawing chills from the tight economy of his lyrics and conveying something deeper than most words usually get across anyway. It's smart music that connects at gut level, a rare treasure in a crowded space. Clipped stories prop themselves up against solitary acoustic guitar, or find a full body in the stellar and spare accompaniment provided by brother Will and his varied keys, wife Maggie's harmonies and the Strandberg brothers' ample multi-instrumentation. The result is a sound singular enough to equally evoke Odetta Holmes and The Replacements - one that perked up the ears of KEXP's John Richards, on "John in the Morning", and landed them East Coast, USA support-slots, with: Matt Pond PA, Earlimart, Brendan Benson and Kevin Devine. Initially, they self-released an EP

Pablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Con lo que la vida me da
Dos manos y una voz pa' cantarte
Y un corazón para poder amar
Tengo que dejar de ser cobarde
Y afrontar lo que el miedo me da
La oscuridad sin piso de la noche
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
Hoy se viste el día de colores
Me levanto lleno de alegría
Y miles de promesas incumplí ya ves
Pero mira sigo estando aquí
Ya era hora de cambiar de aires
Volverme loco por primera vez
Ya sé que algunas cosas hice mal
Pero deja déjalo en mi ayer
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
Que si que no que si que no
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí, que si no que si no
Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti
Volver a empezar, no, de cero de nuevo estoy aquí
The lyrics of Pablo's song "Volver" reflect a theme of self-reflection, growth, and resilience. The singer expresses a desire to learn to be content with what life presents, acknowledging the simple yet meaningful gifts such as two hands to create and a voice to sing. There is a sense of humility and gratitude in recognizing the essentials needed for expression and connection, encapsulated in the lines "Dos manos y una voz pa' cantarte, Y un corazón para poder amar" (Two hands and a voice to sing to you, And a heart to be able to love).
The lyrics also delve into themes of facing fears and confronting one's inner struggles. The mention of overcoming cowardice and braving the unknown challenges that fear brings reinforces a message of resilience and inner strength. The imagery of the night's groundless darkness and the bitter loneliness of silence paint a picture of the internal battles and uncertainties one must confront on the journey of self-discovery and growth.
The chorus "Volver a empezar de cero contigo o sin ti" (Starting over from zero with you or without you) embodies a sentiment of renewal and starting afresh, whether in relationships or personal endeavors. There is a recognition of past mistakes and unfulfilled promises, yet a determination to move forward and embrace new beginnings. The repetition of "de nuevo estoy aquí" (I am here again) emphasizes the theme of persistence and the resilience to continue on despite setbacks.
Towards the end of the song, there is a sense of optimism and empowerment as the singer celebrates the arrival of a new day filled with colors and joy. The decision to break free from the familiar and venture into uncharted territories signifies a willingness to embrace change and take risks. The declaration of being present and unapologetically oneself, with all past faults left behind, encapsulates a powerful message of self-acceptance and growth. Through its introspective lyrics and uplifting melody, "Volver" serves as a poignant ode to resilience, renewal, and the courage to begin again.

La mejor versión de esta nostálgica y apuñaladora canción, maravillosa que envuelve en lágrimas los anhelos de quien ha amado lo perdido hasta morir. Pablo, gran intérprete: GRACIAS. Revivo y vuelvo a morir cada vez que te escucho, sin poder retener un lagrimón.

La mejor versión hecha de esta canción que los que tenemos 70 años, no podemos evitar mil lágrimas al escuchar a Pablo López un auténtico genio que un estúpido y prepotente miembro de un jurado incompetente y corrupto, denigró intentando humillarle. Gracias Pablo
