Juanes-la camisa negra english lyrics

[chriscb]

If you were to list the top 5 latin singers/albums who would they be?

[chriscb]

I have a friend who speaks Spanish and English (ESL) and she says the part of the song that says "miércoles por la tarde y tú que no llegas" is actually a play on words and that Juanes is actually substituting "miércoles" for "mierda". Is this true?

[AERIALSSYSTEM]

@chriscb yes. mierda=shit. MIERcoles-MIERda

[IdRatherBinADream92]

I think I may end up likeing the misangre 2004 album more than the 2010 P.A.R.C.E :),its good as well though.soemday ill buy both.=D

[IdRatherBinADream92]

@chaymaJB15

what part did i miss?\

nope im not spanish

[chaymaJB15]

@JocaBrate94 this part: lo que ayer me supo a gloria hoy me sabe a pura miércoles por la tarde y tú que no llegas ni siquiera muestras señas y yo con la camisa negra y tus maletas en la puerta Mal parece que solo me quedé y fue pura todita tu mentira que maldita mala suerte la mía que aquel día te encontré por beber del veneno malevo de tu amor yo quedé moribundo y lleno de dolor respiré de ese humo amargo de tu adiós y desde que tú te fuiste yo solo tengo… and then the chorus :)

@chaymaJB15

thanks mate ill add it

[chaymaJB15]

@JocaBrate94 you're welcome :) i hope you can understand the part "hoy me sabe a pura miércoles " :)

[chriscb]

@chaymaJB15 what does "hoy me sabe a pura miércoles" mean? A friend of mine said he used the word miércoles instead of mierda. But I still don't know what the phrase means.

[AERIALSSYSTEM]

@chriscb we use "miercoles" when one person want to say "mierda", but mierda is a strong word in spanish and means shit. he really wants to say: today tastes to me of pure shit, but he uses miercoles because he can't say mierda in a song. MIERcoles-MIERda.

[chriscb]

@AERIALSSYSTEM Gracias for the explanation. That really helps with my understanding of the song. I felt the same way when my ex-wife left me. I still have feelings for her and I feel like "shit" because sometimes we can't help how we feel.

[chaymaJB15]

@chriscb oh yeah, he's right, Juanes wants to say that what used to taste like glory now it tastes like shit, your friend is right, the phrase says "what yesterday tasted like glory, today it tastes like..." and now he says MIERCOLES instead MIERDA, cause they both start with MIER, and he starts to tell another story, i don't know if you will understand me.

[kylefell5]

@chaymaJB15 he is actually from the country Columbia

[chaymaJB15]

@kylefell5 I know i was just saying that Spain loves him lol

[WolfProtector101]

@chaymaJB15

So sorry to disappoint you but he is NOT spanish. He's columbian.

[chaymaJB15]

@WolfProtector101 I know it, but what does he speak? SPANISH

[WolfProtector101]

@chaymaJB15

I know but isn't castillian/european spanish more common in Spain? Besides, I'm just telling u. O_o'''

[dipsyhappy]

la camisa negra sounds really good until you find out it means the black shirt which sounds a little funny for a song title but then you read a little more of the lyrics and then it sounds alright again when you get the meaning of it :), thanks for the translation.

[JocaBrate94]

@dipsyhappy

yeah i agree when i found out what it ment i was kinda confused..but yeah when you translate the whole thing its amazing,and no problem mate :)

[msMoniiEmolove]

@dipsyhappy yes it does when you thinkn bout it in english and the words are wierd here and there but in spanish it makes much more than in english its hard to translate it . in the description some words are not what he says he says something else in spanish lyrics its better. like when you translate a english song in spanish some words or sentences ar not the same.

[JocaBrate94]
