Song Lyrics - Farolito (Little Star)
|
This song is built upon a blend of a typical colombian pacific coast rhythm called currulao . The unique instruments that were
used in this song include a shaker called a guache , the conga, log drum, maracas, tambora and the wood sticks, that when combined give a fresh new sound and provide the melodic and harmonic structure of the song. The hand claps blend the overall rhythmn for this song with the background vocals resemb ling African chants. The melody has very unique character as well as the novel use of a plastic
water bottle. The water bottle added yet another new sound to this song . Farolito (Little Star) is a romantic and ethnic language song talking about Christmas night a night when everyone is together sharing the sweet illusions of Christmas. This night points dreamful portraits; it's a time for sharing dreams with people you love.

Como nace el sentimiento
