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.

Y demasiados siempre son pocos
Voy atravesando el llanto roto
Voy eligiendo mi rumbo segundo a segundo
Y hoy ya se, te vas con lo que tienes, yo te lo di
Vengo a decirte que te lo quedes
No elegí cargar tu cruz por la cara
No dije media palabra
No elegí hacer de escudo y de espada
Te di tu sueño y mis alas
Pero esta mentira no me la esperaba
No de ti
Voy tendiendo el sol desde temprano
Por si amanecen tiempos mojados
Voy a corazón desabrochado
Voy eligiendo mi rumbo segundo a segundo
Y yo ya sé, te vas con lo que quieres, yo te lo di
Vengo a decirte que te lo quedes
No elegí cargar tu cruz por la cara
No dije media palabra
Lo di todo y no me arrepiento de nada
No elegí hacer de escudo y de espada
Te di tu sueño y mis alas
Pero esta mentira no me la esperaba
No de ti
No elegí, me bebí tu invento, me tragué tu cuento
Y aunque así se aprende a vivir
Son cosas pa' no repetir
Se acabó tu tiempo, ya te vi por dentro
Y aunque así se aprende a vivir
Y no me arrepiento
No elegí cargar tu cruz con la cara
No dije media palabra
Lo di todo y no me arrepiento de nada
No elegí hacer de escudo y de espada
Te di tu sueño y mis alas
Pero esta mentira no me la esperaba
No de ti
The lyrics of Rosana's song "Tu Cruz por la Cara" convey a sense of personal growth and empowerment in the face of a deceitful relationship. The singer acknowledges that she had too many wild dreams and too few to satisfy them, but she is now moving forward despite her broken heart. She chooses her own path, second by second, and realizes that her partner is leaving with what they have, which she gave them willingly. She declares that she chose not to carry their burden on her face, nor did she utter a single word about it. The singer gave everything she had without any regrets, but she did not choose to serve as a shield or a sword for the other person. She gave them their dreams and her own wings, but she never expected this lie from them.
In the second verse, the singer continues to persevere, illuminating her surroundings with the sun early in the morning in case there are stormy times ahead. She opens her heart fully and continues to choose her own path, second by second. Again, she acknowledges that the other person is leaving with what they want, but she tells them to keep it. She did not choose to carry their burden on her face, nor did she utter a single word. The singer gave everything she had without any regrets, but she did not choose to be a shield or a sword for the other person. She gave them their dreams and her own wings, but she never expected this lie from them.
Overall, the song speaks of personal strength and resilience in the face of betrayal. It emphasizes the singer's willingness to give her all to the relationship, but her refusal to be taken advantage of or made into an instrument for someone else's benefit. The lyrics convey a sense of self-awareness and the realization that some experiences are meant to be learned from and not repeated.
