Labios Rotos is another one of those songs that sticks on my mind every time I listen to it. It’s the second single from the MTV Unplugged album of a mexican band called Zoé. Don’t know why but when I first listened to this band, I thought they were from Argentina or Uruguay.

Anyway, Zoé the band, is a psychedelic rock band that is big in latin america. They’ve been nominated and won multiple Latin Grammys and even got one nomination to the MTV Europe Music Awards.

Labios Rotos is spanish for Broken Lips. I listen to the first notes of this song and am magically transported somewhere else. And then, the voice…León Lárregui’s voice is psychedelic. He starts singing and I think “Oh yes, you can have my lips right now!” hahahaha Yes, I admit it, I would make out with him having this song in the background. 😛 That’s how much I like to listen to this guy’s voice! Don’t you think it’s a good make-out song? 😉

Selon moi, this song is dark, powerful, soft, mellow, rhythmic, mysterious and even corny, but just the exact amount of “cornyness”. I can’t listen to it once when it pops up on my playlist. It’s one of those songs that I keep hittin’ repeat-peat-peat-peat-peat!*

I like this song.

Spanish English
Regalame tu corazón
y dejame entrar a ese lugar,
donde nacen las flores
donde nace el amor.
 
Entregame tus labios rotos
los quiero besar,
los quiero curar,
los voy a cuidar con todo mi amor…
 
Es raro el amor aaah
es raro el amor aaah
que se te aparece
cuando menos piensas.
 
Es raro el amor aaah
es raro el amor aaah
no importa la distancia,
ni el tiempo ni la edad!
 
Moja el desierto de mi alma
con tu mirar, con tu tierna voz,
con tu mano en mi mano
por la eternidad…
 
Y entregame esos labios rotos
los quiero besar, los quiero curar,
los voy a cuidar
con todo mi amor…
 
Es raro el amor aaah
es raro el amor aaah
que se te aparece
cuando menos piensas.
 
Es raro el amor aaah
es raro el amor aaah
no importa la distancia,
ni el tiempo ni la edad!
 
Amor, Amor, Amor (3x)
Give me your heart
and let me into that place,
where flowers are born,
where love is born.
 
Give me your broken lips,
I want to kiss them,
I want to heal them,
I will take care of them
with all my love…
 
Love is weird aaah
Love is weird aaah
It shows up when you least expect it.
 
Love is weird aaah
Love is weird aaah
No matter the distance, nor time or age.
 
Dampen the desert of my soul
with your gaze, with your sweet voice,
with your hand in my hand,
for eternity…
 
And give me your broken lips,
I want to kiss them,
I want to heal them,
I will take care of them
with all my love…
 
Love is weird aaah
Love is weird aaah
It shows up when you least expect it.
 
Love is weird aaah
Love is weird aaah
No matter the distance, nor time or age.
 
Love, Love, Love (3x)
