Okay, it's cold, but this is amazing Palmeiras there's palm trees here and everything. I know you guys you have to use your better Whatever right there on the street. What amazes me is it's sunset and it never gets any darker. How do they do that? Okay, we're gonna start up with a song by some a Cuban duo called duo karma And this call this song is called ayuda me a mirar It's by so chill galan molinette It tells of someone seeing the sea for the first time little piece of sea that consoles me little piece of sea kissing this the shore I never imagined this intensity of blues that blinds me. Help me to see I Uda me a mirar Detierra dentro soy de las maderas no pude imaginar me que existiera Intensidad de azules que me ciegan ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar I Detierra dentro soy de las maderas no pude imaginar me que existiera Intensidad de azules que me ciegan ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar Ayuda me a mirar Gracias. Thank you so much. Vamos a seguir. We're gonna do actually another song from Cuba given the palm trees This one is by The music is by Pablo Milan is many of us from Puerto Rico that's where I'm from a very familiar and we have some Bariquas aquí presentes. We have some other fellow Puerto Ricans here Know the music of Pablo Milan is maybe some of you do too. I don't know maybe my friend Naomi who lived with me for many years And it's here this evening And the lyrics the poetry is by Nicolás Guillain a famous Cuban poet It's called can see on and it says in such a quiet way your smile gets under my skin as If it were the spring time and I was dying I'll settle the way in which you poured on my shirt all of April's flowers How spiritual that you should offer me a rose from your favorite rose garden? They can call yada manera se me adentro state son riendo como si fuera la primavera Y yo muriendo y de que modo sutil me derramo en la camisa todas las flores de abril Quien le dijo que yo era risa si empera nunca y entro como si fuera la primavera Que espiritual que usted debería de una rosa es un rosa al principal de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera yo muriendo yo muriendo de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera y yo muriendo y de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera y yo muriendo y de que modo sutil me derramo en la camisa todas las flores de abril Quien le dijo que yo era risa siempre nunca y entro como si fuera la primavera de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera yo muriendo yo muriendo de que callada manera se me adentro este sonriendo como si fuera la primavera we'd like to do an original of bryans this one is as of yet not recorded well not on a cd not on a cd it is recorded but that's a whole other matter the song is uh it was inspired by a movie that rosy and i watched several years ago that takes place on the camino de santiago in northern spain and the song is buen camino good path says good path good detour good stumble and good recovery good and good injury good remedy good failure and good redemption the road is your destiny the road is yours nothing more nor less if you see me greet me in passing and good redemption well failure and good redemption in conflict good reconciliation good rest of the work of the struggle and good acceptance do well This is a classic from Cuba by Osvaldo Farrés. It's called Quizás, Quizás, Quizás. Made famous in this country as perhaps, perhaps, perhaps by Nat King Cole. If you know it, sing along. That goes for the studio audience. That goes for the live audience. That goes for the non-live audience. You know what I'm saying, right? Can't speak English today. A little bit. And so the days pass, and I, desperate, and you, answering, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. You're wasting your time thinking, thinking. And so the days pass, and I, desperate, and you, answering, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Oh, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. If you can make your mind up, we'll never get started. Mind up, being parted, broken-hearted. So if you really love me, say yes, say yes. But if you don't, dear, come fast, and please don't tell me. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Quizás, quizás, quizás, quizás, quizás. If you can make your mind get started, I'll never get started. But if you can make your mind up, we'll never get started. And I don't want to wind up being parted, broken-hearted. So if you really love me, say yes, say yes. But if you don't, dear, come fast, and please don't tell me. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Quizás, quizás, quizás. Thank you very much. So from, wow, we did a lot from Cuba, our Cuban influence. We're going to move to Venezuela. This is a song we've been doing for some time that we fell in love with years ago called Donada de Luna Llena by Simon Diaz from Venezuela. Simon Diaz was sort of like the Pete Seeger of Venezuela. No, no, no. Pete Seeger is like the Simon Diaz of Venezuela. That's it. It's on me. Simon was a rescuer of folkloric traditions, an amazing composer. He had a TV show for many years, and he really was sort of like the uncle to everyone in Venezuela, Venezuela at one point. And the Donada is a style of music that's sung by the cowboys on the plains of Venezuela as they milk their cows. It calms them, and apparently they produce more milk that way. So this is a style, it's in that style, and it's a little bit surreal. It says, I saw a blue heron doing battle with the river. That's how my heart fell in love with yours. Go on homeboy and fetch me my rifle so I can kill this chicken hawk that's leaving me without any chickens. The moon is watching me. I don't know what it sees. My clothes are clean. I washed them yesterday. Full moon, full moon waning. I see what it sees. My clothes are clean. I have clean clothes. Yesterday afternoon the sink. Yesterday afternoon the sink. The moon is coming. That's how your heart fell in love with mine. A purple heron fighting a river. That's how it fell in love. That's how your heart fell in love with mine. Thank you so much. Full moon waning, isn't it beautiful? So beautiful. Cool arrangement by Brian, by the way. We would like to do something to honor some of our friends from Puerto Rico who are here. And because I'm from Puerto Rico and as you know the donations this evening, partial proceeds are going to be going to Puerto Rico, in particular to the town of Morovis in Puerto Rico where we have a very dear friend who in fact is a documentary maker. She's in the biz and she has made it her mission to help the people of Morovis, many of whom are still without electricity and running water. So little by little the money that we've been sending. But they have lots of paper towels. There's that. But unfortunately that doesn't turn the lights on. So thank you for donating this evening. And for any of you who are watching, we are gladly accepting still donations to send to Morovis. And the information is right there. Except that Tiny is spelled wrong. Tiny is with a Y. Oh, she immediately took it off. Got the hook. Tinyurl.com and whatever the heck it says. Did I say heck? Yeah, I said heck. I was checking my language. Rosie, this is Network TV going. So we're going to do a beautiful song from Puerto Rico. It's sort of the unofficial national anthem of Puerto Rico. It's called Ver de luz by Antonio Cabanvale. Green light. Very emotional song. Just after the hurricane in Boston. Green light of mountains and sea. When I am absent from your beautiful beaches and your whispering palms, I want to return. I want to see your sky free and your star alone. Green light of mountains and sea. Is the virgin of the choir. If I am absent from your beautiful beaches and your whispering palms, I want to return. I want to see your sky free and your star alone. Green light of mountains and sea. Is the virgin of the choir. If I am absent from your beautiful beaches and your whispering palms, I want to return. I want to see your sky free and your star alone. Green light of mountains and sea. Green light of mountains and sea. Is the virgin of the choir. If I am absent from your beautiful beaches and your whispering palms, I want to return. I want to see your sky free and your star alone. Green light of mountains and sea. Is the virgin of the choir. If I am absent from your beautiful beaches and your whispering palms, I want to return. Green light of mountains and sea. Beautiful. I also want everybody to know, because I'm very proud of this, I am a proud mommy, yes, that yesterday, we did a full day workshop in Boston with Scott Parkin, who many of you know out there, and he was fantastic. He coached us on the real conversational read, and we did a lot of improv, and Alisa was there. And she did great. Round of applause for Alisa. Thank you. My mother wins A plus for encouragement. Well, I hope all of you beach goers out there will forgive my attire. Even though I am from Boston, I get cold so easily that my body's in shock. So here's a song called Blood Beats. It's a song that I wrote in my room in Cambridge, looking out the window and thinking about how the wild weather of Boston can be such a metaphor all the time for what's going on on the inside. And here we go. Alisa was telling me today, if I lived here, I never would have written this song. I never would have written it. It's like, I look out the window, it's sunny. The next day I look out the window, it's sunny. What am I going to write about? But I'll have you know this song is not just about the weather. So I hope you listen closely and I hope it takes you on a loving journey. Also, do I have something in my teeth? I feel like there's something. Okay, that's good. Well, you let me know. Okay. It's funny how windows are mirrors to all that is outside and all that is in. And mirrors can become a window when you take a moment to look at your skin. Well, outside the snow is a tumbling glow of commotion. Behind this wall is a thundering call to embrace all the chaos within. Centuries of wisdom can make you so blind. Your blood beats the rhythm to the answers you'll find. All of the years, let them pass on. And all of the years, let them pass through. And all of the love left out in the cold. It's funny how thoughts turn to truth when you give them the time and the space that they need. And truths are just products of thoughts. Be they good or they bad, it's the truth that they feed. All of this mist trapped inside of your chest. It's emotion. Locked in this brain is a quiet refrain to embrace all the chaos within. Centuries of wisdom can make you so blind. Your blood beats the rhythm to the answers you'll find. All of the years, let them pass on. And all of the years, let them pass through. And all of the love left out in the cold. Let them go. And all of the years, let them pass through. What an honor. That's my little girl. So here's a song I wrote in Spanish called Palomita. And it means two things as I was reminded one day when I pop-quizzed the audience. What does Palomita mean? And people were like, little pigeon. And then one little girl was like, popcorn. And I was like, you're right. You're not wrong. Palomitas de maíz are popcorn. Yeah. Yeah. So, but this song is not really about popcorn. I wish it were about popcorn. But it was about when I moved to, I lived in Argentina. And when I first started living there, I did not have friends. I mean, I didn't know anybody. So the only living thing I got to dialogue with, well, it wasn't a dialogue, I guess. I talked to it. Were the pigeons that lived in my window, they nested in my window. And my host mother would come into my room and see the pigeons like there in the window. And she'd be like, Nina, you have to hit the window like this so that the birds fly away. And I'd be like, no, no, no, that's my friend. Don't kick him out. So this song starts addressed to the pigeon. Little pigeon, little gray pigeon. You don't explain to me why I'm here. And the stars, they don't tell me the stories that they used to of love, war and peace. These days I get lost in myself. And words are just a false smile. And from this southern continent with winter in its womb and these rains that never stop, I ask you to take away the memories of the mornings and the apples and the light from your window. And I have the tremendous honor of having Rosy, Ibra and Amador harmonizing with me again. Palomita, palomita, gris, no me explicas porque estoy aquí, solo miras y hechas a volar. Las estrellas no me cuentan más de sus cuentos de amor, guerra y paz. Hoy lo miran desde el más allá. En estos días me pierdo mi misma. Las palabras, una falsa sonrisa. Y desde el sur del continente con invierno en el vientre y las lluvias sin parar. Llévate, Ana, llévate, manzanas. Tus ojos, tu pelo, el olor de tu cuello, la luz por tu ventana. No sabía que el caminar a tu lado me iba a enamorar que una sonrisa te puede marear. Las estrellas nos contaron más nuestra historia. Tenía un final, el silencio te puede matar. En estos días me pierdo en mi misma y las palabras son una falsa sonrisa. Y desde el sur del continente con invierno en el vientre y las lluvias sin parar. Llévate, Ana, llévate, manzanas. Tus ojos, tu pelo, el olor de tu cuello, la luz por tu ventana. This is so cool. This is my first time playing in Los Angeles. Actually, she played when she was about four but she doesn't remember it. Yeah, and by play he means like playing with my brother. You were singing on stage with us. You just weren't playing guitar yet. I think there were eight, right? Seven, right? At the Getty. Oh, so I played at the Getty. She's played at the Getty. So you've been playing in LA for 14 years already. This is just your successful turn. This is my encore performance. Well, it's such an honor to get to play with these incredible musicians who raised me and taught me how to do this thing. And it's also such an honor to perform in front of all of you. People who I didn't know. And now I do. And now you do. It's so awesome how music can do that. And community. Thank you so much, Dan and George for putting this together. This is a happy breakup song called Never Seem to Last. And those are the lyrics that I invite you to sing with me. The chorus goes like this. It goes like this. Never, never, never seem to last. Never, never, never seem to last. Never, never, never seem to last. Never, never, never seem to last. Yes, beautiful Sherman Hooks people. I love your voices. Please celebrate all of the viscerality of youthful breakups or anything that makes you angry. There are so many things I imagine. Through this song, here we go. It's been a long, long time since I thought of you. It's been a long, long time like a day or two. You're always on my mind don't know what to do. It's been a long, long time since I thought of you. I'm always lonely. It's a part of me. I don't need anybody's help with that. You say that you want me. Do anything for me. But that ain't the same as having my back. It's been a long, long time since I've been at home. It's been a long, long time all the plans have grown. It's been a long, long time that I lived in LA. It's been a long, long time since I've been at home. I'm always lonely. It's a part of me. I don't need anybody's help with that. You say that you want me. Do anything for me. But that ain't the same as having my asses and turds to pass. I'm tired. Never, never, never seemed to last. They never, never, never seemed to last. They never, never, never seemed to last. Keep it going. Now I find myself a different team. My friends, they think I'm sad. That ain't true I caught a single tear and I'm through Now I find myself playing a different tune And I don't need anybody's help with that You said, but that ain't the same as heaven Having my pleasant turns to path Never, never, never seem too late They'll be home, but I'm never home Never, never, never seem too late They never, never, never seem too late They never, never, never seem too late Never, never, never, never I caught a single tear I caught a single tear I caught a single tear I caught a single tear I caught a single tear incredible audience we gonna make a little bit of a change of pace here something you probably weren't expecting, a country song. I grew up in a very interesting and bizarre place called Albuquerque, New Mexico. And one thing about New Mexico is, you know, there's this blend of cultures there. It's kind of Hispanic, it's kind of Anglo, and it's a little bit country. So one day I was sitting around and I looked in this dark, dusty corner of my mind and I saw a country singer there and he gave me this song. It's called Carve My Initials in the Tree of Life. I would like to dedicate this song to the closest thing I have to a sister who is Penigrego right over here. I've known her since we were both little youngins. And so this is for you, Pen. Yeah. I'm not gonna live forever That is one thing that I know Someday I'll be fertilizer Hope to make some green things grow I'm not gonna live forever That is one thing I can see I am gonna do some living Long before they bury me I'm gonna carve my initials in the tree of life Leave a link in the description Gonna get back up, keep on drinking from the loving cup Carve my initials in the cosmic tree Leave a heart that says you plus me Won't give up without a fuss Make them sure they will remember You're not gonna live forever That is one thing that's for sure Because we're here, but for a moment And for that there ain't no cure You're not gonna just be sure to do some living Long before they bury you You've got to carve your initials in the tree of life Keep on living till the day you die When you fall you gotta get back up Keep on drinking from the loving cup Carve my initials in the cosmic tree Leave a heart that says you plus me Won't give up without a fuss Make them sure they will remember Carve my initials in the tree of life Keep on living till the day we die When we fall you gotta get back up Keep on drinking from the loving cup Carve my initials in the cosmic tree Leave a heart that says you plus me Won't give up without a fuss Make them sure they will remember us Carve my initials So anyway. And now for a total change of pace. Another song that is actually very reminiscent of New Mexico. Some years ago I wrote a suite for our full sex tet This is a string quartet And it's all about food. It's called Sabori Memoria. A musical feast in seven courses. And this is one of the movement's Son's string quartet, of course. That's right. And I just want to mention That we are very grateful to say That we had a crowdfunding campaign And I would say about 80% of it Was funded by all of our voiceover Friends and colleagues. Some of you are right here Who helped us fund Sabori Memoria. To those who are out there who helped fund it Along with our family. Because it wouldn't exist without that. Actually, yes. And we actually happen to have a recording of it here If you're interested. It has either a CD or a DVD. The DVD has wonderful Photomontages that accompany all the music. So I highly recommend it And I also would like to dedicate This song to the very first When we launched the fundraising campaign The very first person to give us a donation. Was Mr. Dan Leonard. That's right. Did you know that? The kind of guy Dan is Because he's always supporting other people And helping other people. And so this song is for you, Dan. Yeah. It says, I was far from home In a strange land when the smell of Chili's took me back to my ranch. The years rolled backwards The miles rolled backwards The years disappeared. Again, I saw my grandmother Shaping tortillas. Smell of Chili's, smell of childhood. So many years erased by nothing more Than a fragrance. Smell of Chile's, smell of home Made me forget how life passes by. So I was far from home In a strange land when the smell of Chili's took me back to my ranch. The years rolled backwards The years disappeared. The years rolled backwards The miles rolled backwards The years disappeared. Again, I saw my grandmother Shaping tortillas. Smell of Chile's, smell of childhood. So many years erased by nothing more Than a fragrance. Smell of Chile's, smell of childhood. Smell of Chile's, smell of childhood So many years erased by nothing more Than a fragrance. Smell of Chile's Smell of home Made me forget how life passes by. Olor a casa, me ha hecho olvidar de como la vida pasa Hay bocas que hablan de mí Con odio y con desprecio Mientras se comen los frutos Que yo les cosecho Me vine a puros pal norte A ti me descanso Y cuando siento ese aroma Me devuelve a mi rancho Brachiles, olor a infancia Tantos años borrados por nada más Que una fragancia Olor a chiles, olor a casa Me ha hecho olvidar de como la vida pasa We'll help you pack your bags Sorry Brand's gonna do a very new song Well, I'll let him explain Recently a friend of mine suggested to me That I write a song for a lullaby For the children who've been separated From their families at the border I thought it was a great idea But when I started to do it All I felt was rage So it was very hard to channel that into a lullaby But I figured out how to do it by using the rage So this is called Nana rabiosa, raging lullaby The lullaby part is in Spanish I'll translate it for you And then there's a rap in English To the people that put them there There's also a refrain that keeps repeating In the English part that is Son niños carajo, their children, dammit The lullaby says Sleep, little girl, sleep If you can, far from your poppy In your gray cell Sleep, little boy, sleep Know that your mommy thinks of nothing but you Longs for no one but you And is in search of you Sleep, little girl, sleep And if they mistreat you, it's nothing personal It's just that those people Are not capable of seeing you as a human being You're nothing but collateral damage Sleep, little girl, sleep Know that this long night Will come to an end If they mistreat you, we won't give up Until you wake up in freedom Sleep, little girl Sleep Sleep, if you can Far from your poppy In your gray cell Sleep, little boy, sleep Know that your mommy Does not think more than you Does not cry more than you And is in search of you Sleep, little girl, sleep Sleep, if you can And if they mistreat you, it's nothing personal It's just that those people Are not capable of seeing you as a human being You're nothing but collateral damage Sleep, little girl, sleep And now a little verse for those who put them there How dare you Have you no shame Are you so blinded by hate That you can't wait to cause another person pain Can you accept the things they're doing in your name Is it right to rip a mother from her child To the crime of asking for asylum A little shelter from the storm A chance to see her kids grow up Having come so far just to end up in a cage It puts me in a rage All your excuses, your blame and your justification All the bile, denial and obfuscation Can convince the sentient your intentions are good Any more than you describe You betray your humanity Display your insanity Tear apart families for the sake of your vanity A wall you say Build a wall How about you build yourself a conscience How about we build ourselves a country with a heart A connection to the world An unbreakable democracy Instead of a pathetic, misanthropic plutocracy How about we treat every child like our own Treat the earth like our home Learn to live together so we don't die alone Remember every child is a child is a child Son niños carajo Son niños carajo Son niños carajo Son niños carajo Puerme niña duérmeme si puedes Que esta noche larga Tendrá su final No te olvidaré No descansaré Hasta que amanezcas Hasta que amanezcas Thank you.
