In the new album of Café Tacvba, one of the highest points of the work is "El mundo en que nací", a wonderful lullaby composed and sung by Emmanuel Del Real, who once again demonstrates how valuable his pieces are to The Mexican band
This time, the guitarist and keyboardist is dazzled by the person who has just been born. It narrates that surprising experience of having before the helpless son who has just arrived at the world.
"Nothing has ever made me as happy as the day that you came to this world and for the first time I saw you, to carry you between my arms and my nose.Then that day I knew that first I would let a plane fall on me, before something approached And I could do some damage to you.Fear wants me to paralyze and find something that makes me walk.I come in this redemption, your love is my only and complete salvation, "sings Del Real accompanied by a few notes of his keyboard and a Exceptional string arrangement.
It is not the first time that the group dedicates an issue to fatherhood or family life. In 2007 he did it with "Vámonos", that simple and direct song of the disc Sino, also sings by Meme, as it is also known to Del Real.
Now, a decade later, "The World in which I Was Born" shows a closer relationship, a more intimate feeling towards a creature that barely takes its first steps. It even deals with that sacrifice of one who is capable of giving his life for the child.
Undoubtedly, one of the best songs in the history of the Mexican band. Direct and simple in its execution, but so full of feeling and truth, that it is not necessary to be a father to recognize the feeling exposed.
