Tango written by Victor Soliño, Gerardo Hernán Matos Rodriguez (Uruguay)

Rosa Rodríguez Quiroga de Capiello (1901 - 1984) opened along with Azucena Maizani the way for women singers in the golden age of tango music.
She made an impressive number of recordings in the
1920s and 1930s and was the first female tango singer to appear on the radio.

Ill-bred girl:
This well-known tango tells a simple story: a poor payador - folk-singer- in his lonely tenement room, his guitar hanging from a nail in the corner, longs for his girl to come back to him; 'Can't you see that your disclaim is killing me?' - and finally, as if to prove it, shoots himself, which brings the neighbours running.
