Hi everyone!
In this post I write about my favourite song at the moment! I hear this song every week because it's so good.
This song is "he burned" (se quemó) and it's sing by "the other" (la otra). The singer is from Spain and she's a feminist woman, for that reason I love all her songs.
The style of music is folk and the main instruments are guitar and voice of singer.
The first time hear this song was when a friend send to me by facebook. I was be listen to "the other" but not this song, for that I was very impressed when I was listening because the letter it's very ironic and sarcastic!
This song is about the rapists of women and it's show that there are arguments very ridicules about this topic. For example, when a woman suffer a rape the medium and people says that the responsability is of woman! I think that is terrible but the TV, newspappers, radio, etc. accuse the woman for the clothes that she wears, the drinks that she consume and the time that she comes back home. In any case the responsability is the rapist and for that reason I think that this society is very sexist.
In different cases, the people and medium says that the woman asked for that violation. In the song, there are different verses say that the rapist asked for that burn, for example:
"Y hay testigos que ese mismo día le vieron
comprando un mechero,
como saber si no se prendió fuego a si mismo
y luego mintió"
For that reasons I like this song, in spite of it's very sad, is the reality and for this is very important make a change!
i dont to listen this song but a like the massage transmit
ReplyDeleteThis song is more than a simple song, is a sarcastic political declaration versus the patriarchy opression.
