I am quite surrounded by music that is expressed as "unconcerned" but expresses something "very concerned" recently. Sakamoto's Tango, and now "Besame Mucho".
Besame Mucho has been performed by so many artists. Too many of them interpret the song too sentimentally, sensually or emotionally. (Although many audiences do like these ways of expressing Latino passion)
And I just want to share this "unconcerned" expression with fully sincerity and purity into the music. Not to mention also the amazing improvisation and magic interaction between two artists.
Caetano Veloso & João Gilberto in 2000
Lyrics
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo perderte,
Perderte después.
Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos
Verte junto a mi
Piensa que tal vez mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos
Muy lejos de tí.
Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche
La última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo perderte,
Perderte después.

Insensatez
