We have been impatient for news about CORAZÓN ever since we got our hands on their second album, “Nuevo Futuro” in 2009, and we have been anxiously awaiting a new release from Carlos and Nando. We finally got what we wanted, in a digital single with a cover of a Roberto Carlos song as the title track, as well as two of their own songs. “Me Quiero Casar Contigo” belongs to the Brasilian singer’s early period, and it’s an exciting example of creativity and addictive melodies.  Between the 70’s styled choruses of LAS CORAZONADA and the keyboard arrangements of Antonio Galvañ (PARADE), those touches of personality that Ibon Errazkin’s production work gives are unwrapped to simultaneously create an homage to YOUNG MARBLE GIANTS. The song keeps the catchy spirit of the original but also adds a playful perspective and is full of fantasy. “Un Final Feliz Para Este Cuento” is an apology turned into song, sent in code to the person who understands the message. Within the psychedelic melodies and an air of classic romanticism a universal message of forgiveness and regret unfolds, done with surprising humility and tenderness. Closing the single is “La Fiebre de Carlos”, a song that already appeared on the farewell compilation for the Annika label. This song was a gift from Nando  to Carlos in 2002, during a time when he was ill. With a carefree but delicate air, like a JEANETTE in springtime, precious arrangements adorn a story that moves from affectionate to amusing, with moments of clear irritation.

It is a marvellous single that comes complete with cover art made in the Cerralbo Museum, where the duo performed this past June. Speaking of performances, they will perform the new songs for the first time this coming 5^th of November in the Sala Siroco, as a part of the Club Elefant celebrations, accompanied onstage by their friends Teresa and Ibon, which is to say, SINGLE! Don’t miss it!
