Latin Grammy-nominated band Superlitio have been described as one of the best rock acts in Colombia today. The band independently released its fourth album CALIDOSOUND in July 2009, having teamed up with award-winning producer Rafa Sardina. The year saw them headline Rock al Parque, the largest open rock festival in Latin America, while also winning the Recording Of The Year award at the Shock Awards, the most prestigious music awards in Colombia.
Superlitio have also won plaudits for their innovative use of digital, notching up more than 40,000 downloads of their latest album preview with a Colombian newspaper, and more than 150,000 streams on the MSN portal during the launch week.
Band members Pipe, Pete, Alejo, Dino and Armando have come a long way since forming Superlitio more than a decade ago. The band has played more than 500 shows, supporting artists like Juanes, Café Tacuba, Julieta Venegas, Control Machete, Babasónicos, Molotov, Aterciopelados and Manu Chao.
In 2008, Superlitio had their second number one in the Colombian radio airplay chart, with the title track from the movie Perro Come Perro – one of the most critically acclaimed Colombian movies ever. The band also garnered nominations for Best New Artist at the Latin Grammys, as well as Best Rock Album at Univision’s Premio Lo Nuestro Awards, and Best Fusion Video at the Much Music Awards. In the US, they won La Banda Elastica award for Best New Alternative Artist.
Superlitio’s music has also been regularly used on Colombian TV shows, including hugely popular soap opera Francisco el Matematico. The band’s music has also been used in Colombia’s equivalent of The X Factor.
In March 2010, right after their second appearance at SXSW Festival and a short US Tour with shows in NYC, Washington, and Miami, CALIDOSOUND was digitally released on a global scale through The Orchard. Perro Come Perro was choosen as the single of the week in iTunes Latino US and Mexico achieving over 50.000 downloads.
The band is currently touring Colombia promoting their latest single Te Lastime, which have already reached the number one spot in several radio stations around the country.

Que Voy a Hacer
Superlitio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que se la lleve la marea
Desde que conocí esta jeva y no se que pasa
Que la cabeza ya no me sirve pa´ trabajar
Que me he quedado de ver con ella en no se donde
Que cuando llega y me dice "papi eche pa´ tras" - rúñeme mamá
Que vo´ hacer
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Que vo´ ha hacer
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Desde aquel día no más que verla en todas partes
No hay un cigarro que puedas darme para olvidar
Esta resaca no tiene nada que ver con ella
Será mejor que fumar barato y echar pa´ tras
Y rúñeme mamá
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye ben-bendito y por favor
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye marina cuanto te quiero
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye bendito, ay bendito sea el señor
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye marina cual desespero
Que se la lleve la marea
Que se la lleve la marea
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye ben-bendito y por favor
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye marina y cuanto te quiero
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye ben-bendito, bendito sea el señor
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Oye marina y que desespero
Que vo ´hacer , no sé
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza, ay mamá!
Que voy a hacer
Que vo´ hacer cuando pierda la cabeza
Que se la lleve la marea
Que se la lleve la marea
The song "Que voy a hacer" by Superlitio describes the overwhelming feeling of being infatuated with someone to the point that it impairs normal functioning. The singer is so consumed with thoughts of this person that they can't concentrate on their work or think straight. They are constantly seeking opportunities to be with this jefa, who intoxicates them with her presence. The chorus of the song repeatedly asks "Que vo' hacer cuando pierda la cabeza" or "What am I going to do when I lose my mind?" The suggestion is that this person is so captivating that they may eventually lose their ability to think rationally.
Throughout the song, the singer declares their love for this person and expresses their desperate desire to be with them. They feel completely out of control, as if they are at the mercy of their own emotions. The repeated line "Que se la lleve la marea" or "Let the tide take her" seems to suggest that the singer is aware of the danger that this infatuation poses to their mental and emotional health, but they are powerless to stop it. The song ends unresolved, with the singer still grappling with their feelings and unsure of what to do next.
