noooo. i said:

"really? i understood almost all the words. it's that sometimes half the group was singing other words (the men, the women), obviously. anyway the performance was very good."

anyway i hope everyone enjoyed it too

[melvicgcano]

Literal Tranlation for your perusal:

does it spoil really? I understood almost all the words. the fact is that sometimes the half of the group was singing other words (the men, the women), obviously. anyway the performance was the best.

jaja de verdad? entendi casi todas las palabras. es que a veces la mitad del grupo estaba cantando otras palabras (los hombres, las mujeres), obviamente. de todas formas la actuacion estuvo buenisima.
