The Americas have infected me!

Nanatsu no Tsuki
26-03-2009, 13:33
And not in a good way. *sighs*
The music. Damn the Mexicans for their "norteñas" and "quebraditas"! Curse that and Fanny Lú! Band music from hell... Now I can't stop listening and twitching like a red-neck trying to dance salsa or have sex in a conga line whenever her song "Tú No Eres Para Mi" comes on the radio. :( And the problem is, I like the dance version and the traditional one, with accordions and guys in white, cowboy hats. Oh dear gods!

Has anything like this happened to you, NSG? And by Jove, don't make that much fun of me. I have a year of this going ahead of me, have mercy. :tongue:

On that note, here (http://www.imeem.com/people/iChywB9/music/juDUdObV/fanny-l-tu-no-eres-para-mi/), suffer like me!

Title is misleading. I do believe you mean Latin-Americans.

I know how everything is called in Spanish, so I see your reasoning, but in English that's not the commonly accepted way of takling and it makes for confusion. "The Americans have infected me" would be a way of talking about citizens of the United States of America, and that's what people are going to think until they read the rest of your OP.

"The Latinos" . . . or "The Latin-Americans" . . . or whatever, would be a much better way of stating what you did.

How you wrote it is just not the way english is used in the real world.

That's not what she wrote. So take your egocentric ramblings and stuff it til you learn to read proper.

She said "The Americas have infected me", which is an entirely acceptable way to write what she meant. The United States isn't the only country in the Americas.

DO NOT MISLEAD THIS THREAD WITH THAT DISCUSSION OR I WILL START TALKING TO NANATSU IN SPANISH WHERE "AMÉRICAS" AND "AMERICANOS" ARE PERFECLTY VALID WORDS!

That said...

I cannot be infected with said sickness, I am one of the viruses, I guess.

But, since some time, I have been infected with many things from other places, like "Aserejé", or Chenoa, or Bisbal's songs, so it is a good culture exchange. Fair and good globalization. I was sooo infected that I even learned to dance flamenco and play "cajón". (Did you know that the cajón used in flamenco is original from the slaves brought to Perú and Cuba and from there jumped to Spain?)

You have still many things to discover, brazilian axe bahia, peruvian and colombian cumbia, colombian vallenato, murga from Panamá...I am more in side of something like Julieta Venegas than Fanny Lú, but...Dancing salsa to that song? You are doing it wrong dear :D

¿Y qué tan bien lo lees y lo escribes? Porque lamentablemente no tengo manera de saber qué tan bien lo hablas o lo comprendes de manera verbal. Es decir, ¿Entiendes todo lo que se escribe?

Entonces, si puedo preguntarte algo, ¿Qué rayos tiene que ver tu comentario sobre el español con lo que escribió Nanatsu en la apertura? Además, ¿Estás consciente del significado de la palabra "Americas" en inglés, y la diferencia que existe entre ese término y el término "Américas" en español, en cuanto a su significado?

Ah, been years since I took or had to speak Spanish. I have to say though we don't get a lot of Latin music up here, mostly just Mexican stuff. All sounds like circus music to me. Possibly because they blast it with the bass turned all the way up.

It'd probably irritate me more if I knew what the lyrics meant.

Not my favourite music, but actually not that bad either as to say "it all sounds the same". Of course, the good thing about music is that it is a matter of taste.

Nothing particularly attractive about the lyrics, but not as disgusting as in other genres.

"Abre que voy" me suena a reggaetón, pero creo que es "salsa erótica". The kind of salsa I actually do not get, or like at all.

I remember a song with the chorus of "Voy a hacerte el amor, pero esta vez porque te quiero". (I'm going to make love to you, this time because I care for you). Sooo, the first time was rape or what?

Por eso. It's the competitive quality of salsa that annoys me, but I also just don't enjoy the music as much. Too piquante, in the Chilean meaning of the term...cheesy. Over the top. What I like about merengue is that you can either do it very fast, or if you're tired, you can do more of a cumbia to it because the rhythms are so similar. I'm definitely old school though, I love Sonora Palacios, Sonora Malecon, Juan Luis Guerra y los 440, Los Hermanos Rosarios etc. Not a crazy amount of new stuff that grabs me, but then again, everyone redos those songs so I get to hear them all the time. Fuck I love merengue...of all the ways I like to dance, this is the one I'd pick if I were stuck with only one style forever more.

I'm not so into the technical aspect of dance, I like to let my hips guide me, or have a partner who leads well...intricate steps and shit, not really my cup of tea.

So I've found...learning to to move properly, and follow properly has done me more than well. I also like the fact that the way I dance to non latin music has been greatly flavoured by merengue/cumbia/etc. I get a lot of compliments, when people stop staring at my ass :D

It was just ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY for 50 White Knights to come to her aid and say NO U RONG, IT R SAID AMERICAS.

Anyways, yes that's interesting :P.

Though I'm not a huge fan of the sort, I have been recently intrigued by all things British. Beyond that.. I don't know, I guess it feels normal to like a lot of different foreign things here in the States since a lot of such said foreign things have sort of become a part of our Culture in one way or another. Honestly, though, what I meant was (by the British thing) that I'm sort of intrigued to go to Britain some day. I also don't mean to go there on Holiday, either.

Until then I'm just going to stick to possibly getting a Medical degree instead of originally hatched as a thought.. IT.. not it :P.

I take it back, though. I guess I really don't mind all things Latino.

That's not what she wrote. So take your egocentric ramblings and stuff it til you learn to read proper.

She said "The Americas have infected me", which is an entirely acceptable way to write what she meant. The United States isn't the only country in the Americas.

Indeed.

Though to be honest I did misread the thread title at first and was thusly confused for a moment.

In any case, music is music. Its origin matters little save for how it can influence its beauty.

Some of the music you find in Latin America is, to my chagrin, more noise than music. Search for Regaettón and dispair.:(

Then again, music for other parts of the world could also qualify as that. Some japanese traditional, for example, or Polka, that for us in some cases is completely funny.

Apart from traditional, hardcore techno is little more than noise, some industrial, or even Rap is a guy singing completely dissociated with music.

So it's not only latin music ;)

Ah, pero claro. El sayo no le cae únicamente a la músic latinoamericana. Enka me pone los pelos de punta y a mi me gusta la música tradicional japones. Claro, que lo que viene de México pone en duda esta aseveración, pero... a mi encantan otros estilos de música. No hay nada más lindo que el ballenato y el tango, joder, es tan sensual. :)

Come with me, bring your man, we'll double date, I'll bring the band,

To the Church next to Adelitas, the House of the Lord beside the House of Whores,

I'll enjoy the senoritas, while you hear the musica bounce off the big wooden doors,

With white hats and Old Gringo boots, the policia walk by, deaf to truth

Come, Nanatsu no Tsuki, your fever is rising,

Infection is spreading, your passions surprising...


Come, Nanatsu...

Toomey, darling, Americans are not a disease. You look like a disease, but I recognize you're not. I was talking about the music of the Americas, as a collective.

And I swear I never brought up the English economy.:wink:

What's that? We're a communicable pathogen of the worst order? We're like Small Pox with an inflated military budget?

You should just quarantine us with Canada and Mexico, wrap a giant condom around the whole continent?


Why, you hateful Iberian slattern.

It won't work. The pathogen has a mind of its own now.
