Spanish “punk blues” band Guadalupe Plata asks the age-old question, “¿Qué He Sacado Con Quererte?” Even if you can’t understand Andalusian Español, we bet you can’t take your eyes off this vertically-scrolling goth video with dissonant surf guitars.
Mira los lyrics by Chilean songwriter Violetta Parra:
What have I gained from the moon that we both watched together
What have I gained with the names written on the wall
Just like the calendar changes, so changes everything in this world
Ay Ay Ay Ay AyWhat have I gained from the lily that we planted in the patio
It wasn’t just one who was planting it, but two lovers
Gardener, your garden has not changed with time
Ay Ay Ay Ay AyWhat have I gained from the shadow of the aromo tree for a witness
And the trace of four feet by the road side
What have I gained from loving you, little carnation in bloom
Ay Ay Ay Ay AyHere is the same moon, and in the patio the white lily
The two names on the wall and your trail on the road
But you, ungrateful dove, no longer coo in my nest
Ay Ay Ay Ay Ay
