Rosana Arbelo was born … Read Full Bio ↴There are two artists by the name of Rosana.
Rosana Arbelo was born in Lanzarote in the Spanish Canary Islands off the northwestern coast of Africa. At age 20, she moved to Madrid where she studied music and guitar.
In 1994, a song she composed won first prize at the Festival de Benidorm. From then on her compositions started to interest many other artists.
In 1996, Rosana decided to start singing her own songs and released her first album, Lunas Rotas. The disc reached unexpected popularity, and without trying she turned into an overnight phenomenon.
Her entry into the Spanish music market was one of the strongest for a new artist in the history of the country. She sold more than 1.6 million copies in Spain, and more than 900,000 in the rest of the world.
Her second album, Luna Nueva, was released in 1998 and had a more mature and deep sound, but maintained the natural and smooth sentiments that characterize the artist.
After three years of silence, during which she wrote songs for other artists, her third album, Rosana, was released in 2001. Its sounds explored the rythms from the her birthplace in the Canary Islands.
In December of 2003, Rosana released Marca Registrada, a double-disc album that contained 10 new songs, 12 greatest hits, and two videos.
Most recently, she has been on tour in both Spain and Latin America, promoting her 2005 album Magia.
Rosana Fiengo is a Brazilian singer who had massive success and a string of hits from the mid-80s to the mid-90s. Her biggest hit was O Amor E O Poder in 1987, and others followed shortly: Direto No Olhar, Onde O Amor Me Leva, Nem Um Toque, Vício Fatal. Her romantic and popular style didn't guarantee her rave reviews, but she did manage to win some awards and she was always featured in many TV shows.
After a while she gained cult status and is still working today, performing at 80s retro parties. Her latest album was released in 2003, and despite containing a remix of O Amor E O Poder, it didn't do well commercially. Her voice has a very wide range and can sometimes be compared to Tina Turner's.
For the 2009 release song "Loving You", she change her stage name to Rosanah Fiengo.

Rosana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Un jardín en flor en pleno invierno
Unas manos vacía si no están en tu cuerpo
Una boca sombrí sin la tuya y la mía, sumergida en besos
Pero no me pidas que te dé la luna
Porque no la tengo cuando estoy a oscuras
Quitársela al cielo no tiene perdón
No te doy la luna llena porque es la eterna rosa
Que regalan los amantes con el aire de la boca
Y si el amor se nos rompe porque el amor se equivoca
El mundo amanecería repleto de lunas rotas
Te doy lo que soy y lo que siento
Un océano azul en un desierto
Unas alas que vuelan más allá de los vientos
Un diluvio de gotas de sudor, de amantes que de amor se mueren
Pero no me pidas que te dé la luna
No te doy la luna llena porque es la eterna rosa
"Lunas Rotas" is a love song that tells the story of a person who is giving their all to their partner. The lyrics reveal the persona's willingness to give everything they have and everything they are to their loved one. The first stanza talks about how they are willing to give their garden in bloom even in winter, their empty hands are only fulfilled when they are wrapped around their partner, their mouth is somber without their partner's and their lips are meant to be submerged in kisses with their loved one. However, the persona refuses to give their partner the moon, even if that brings darkness to their life. The second stanza is a repetition of the first, with different metaphors used to elaborate on how much the persona is willing to give to their partner. They offer an ocean in a desert, wings that soar beyond the wind, and raindrops of sweat and love. The chorus, however, remains the same, that the persona won't give their partner the full moon, as it's the eternal rose that lovers pass on with their breath. They then suggest that if love breaks, the universe would be filled with broken moons.
The core theme of the song is what truly matters in a relationship. The persona portrays that the most important thing in life is not the materialistic elements, but what the individual has to offer in their heart, soul, and spirit. Love is something that cannot be bought, and once broken, it can cause long-lasting damage. The song resonates with people who emphasize the importance of emotional and spiritual connections in a relationship.
