Tatiana's first major musical project was as the character, "Jane", in the 1984 live stage performance, Kuman, a Mexican rock opera about a Tarzan-like character. The show's 1984 album soundtrack also entitled Kuman was released under the group name, Cristal y Acero ‒ the rock trio consisting of guitarist Icar Smith, bassist Carlos Ortega, and drummer Samuel Shapiro.[1]
From 1984 to 1994, Tatiana released 10 pop music albums which garnered numerous No. 1 hits, 15 gold records, and 4 platinum records throughout Latin America.
In 1995, Tatiana began releasing children's music albums which have since achieved no less than 24 gold, 8 platinum, and 4 diamond records.
From 1997 to 2001, Tatiana hosted the children's television show, El Espacio de Tatiana, on the Mexican network, Televisa. She currently hosts the television show, El Show De Tatiana, on the TV Azteca network. She also performs voice-over work and records soundtrack songs for various television and movie projects produced by The Walt Disney Company.
In 2004, she appeared as the character, "Coral", on the Mexican telenovela, Amy, La Niña De La Mochila Azul.
In 2005, she released her first non-children's album in over a decade entitled Acústico – Mil Gracias, an unplugged acoustic album with renditions of some of her earlier pop hits as well a number of new songs including two in English.
Her 2007 tour had 56 sold-out concerts, and her subsequent 2008 tour, Espapirifárctico, covered 64 concert dates throughout five countries.
Una Rata Vieja
Tatiana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
por planchar su falda se quemo la cola
se puso pomada, se amarro un trapito
y a la pobre rata le quedo un rabito.
(Auu) lloraba la rata
(auu) se amarro un trapito
(auu) pobrecita rata
(Todo 3x)
¡Y dice!
Una rata vieja que era planchadora
por planchar su falda se quemo la cola
se puso pomada, se amarro un trapito
esa pobre rata no sabe planchar.
Esa rata vieja no sabe planchar
esa pobre rata no sabe planchar
wo, la rata, no sabe planchar, yeah.
The song "Una Rata Vieja" by Tatiana tells the story of an old rat who worked as a clothes ironer. One day, while ironing her own skirt, she accidentally burned her tail. She tried to treat it with ointment and wrap it in a piece of cloth, but all she was left with was a small tail. The chorus of the song describes how the rat cried in distress over her situation.
The second verse of the song mocks the old rat for not knowing how to iron properly despite being in the profession. The lyrics imply that her burnt tail was a result of her incompetence or carelessness. Overall, the song highlights the theme of the consequences of one's actions and abilities.

Me alegro por usted pero para mí fue una década de tortura, humillación, discriminación y sufrimiento indescriptible. En Torreón había regionalismo y muchos sufrimos discriminación regional

Gracias Tatiana :)
