More on Juanes...

After the Album "Un Dia Normal," Juanes made hit after hit with his albums. I personally don't think he had a bad album out up to today. After "Un Dia Normal"  Juanes Released his Third Album in 2004 titled "Mi Sangre" (My Blood) and again debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Latin Albums. The album produced three consecutive number one singles. With this album, Juanes took the award for Best Rock Song for "Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor"(I am Worthless Without Your Love), Best Rock Solo Album for Mi Sangre and Best Music Video for "Volverte a Ver" ( To see you Again). wiki Link 2 Link 3

Juanes was once asked if he would consider recording an album in English, and Juanes responded

"singing in Spanish is very important to me because it's the language in which I think and feel. I respect people that sing in English but for now I'll keep my Spanish." wiki

 Juanes went on to launch his own music label in October 2007, and released his new album titled "La vida...Es un Ratico" (Life is a Little Moment)Video Me Enamora. and it's first single was "Me Enamora" (I fall in love). Me Enamora is pretty self explanatory with the title. One thing about Juanes is that his music make you want to fall in love or find the one or make you want to be happy. At least for me, this is what I feel when I listen to his songs.

Here are the Lyrics for Me Enamora:

Cada blanco de mi mente

Se vuelve color con verte

Y el deseo de tenerte

 Es más fuerte, es más fuerte

 Sólo quiero que me lleves

De tu mano por la senda

Y atravesar el bosque

Que divide nuestras vidas

 

Hay tantas cosas que me gustan hoy de ti...

Me enamora que me hables con tu boca

Me enamora que me eleves hasta el cielo

Me enamora que de mi sea tu alma soñadora

Esperanza de mis ojos

Sin ti mi vida no tiene sentido

Sin ti mi vida es como un remolino

De cenizas que se van oh oh oh oh

Volando con el viento...

 

 Yo no sé si te merezco

 Sólo sé que aún deseo

 Que le des luz a mi vida

 En los días venideros

 

 Léeme muy bien los labios

 Te lo digo bien despacio

 Por el resto de mis días

 Quiero ser tu compañía

 

 Hay tantas cosas que me gustan hoy de ti…

Me enamora que me hables con tu boca

Me enamora que me eleves hasta el cielo

Me enamora que de mi sea tu alma soñadora

Esperanza de mis ojos

Sin ti mi vida no tiene sentido

Sin ti mi vida es como un remolino

De cenizas que se van oh oh oh oh

Volando con el viento...

 

 

English:

Every whiteness in my head
turns into a color when I see you
And the desire of having you
gets stronger, stronger
I just want you to take
my hand in yours on the way
And to cross the forest
that separates our lives.
There are so many things
That I like about you today
She wins my heart
Love me with your mouth
She wins my heart
Rise me up to the sky
She wins my heart
Let your dreamy heart be mine.
Hope of my eyes
Without you my life makes no sense
Without you my life is like a swirl
Of ashes that go away
Flying with the wind...
I don't know if I deserve you
I just know that I still want you
To bring light into my life
In the future days
Read my lips very carefully
I'll say it loud and clear
For the rest of my days
I want to be your companion.
There are so many things
That I like about you today
She wins my heart
Love me with your mouth
She wins my heart
Rise me up to the sky
She wins my heart
Let your dreamy heart be mine.
Hope of my eyes
Without you my life makes no sense
Without you my life is like a swirl
Of ashes that go away
She wins my heart
Love me with your mouth
She wins my heart
Rise me up to the sky
She wins my heart
Let your dreamy heart be mine.
Hope of my eyes
Without you my life makes no sense
Without you my life is like a swirl
Of ashes that go away
flying with the wind...

So in this song, Juanes is pretty much declaring his love for someone. He is explaining little details about her that make him fall even more in love with her. She now gives him hope and without her life has no sense. Pretty poetic huh!? I love this song. It is another one of those songs that you just can't help loving. For me the song represents everything a man or a woman looks for. you want to find that someone that gives meaning to your life that makes you fall even more in love with him/her as the days go by, that all the little things both good and bad and silly make you love them more.
