No se para que volviste
si yo empezaba a olvidar
No se si ya lo sabras llore cuando vos te fuiste
No se para que volviste,
que mal me hace recordar
La tarde se apuesto triste
y yo prefiero callar

Para que vamos a hablar
de cosas que ya no existen
No se para que volviste
ya ves que es mejor no hablar

Que pena me da saber que al final
De ese amor ya no queda nada
Solo una pobre cancion da vueltas por mi guitarra
Y hace rato que te extraña
mi zamba para olvidar

Mi zamba vivio conmigo,
parte de mi soledad
No se si ya lo sabras mi vida se fue contigo
Contigo mi amor contigo
Que mal me hace recordar

Mis manos ya son de barro,
tanto apretar al dolor
Y ahora que me falta el sol,
no se que venis buscando
Llorando mi amor llorando
Tambien olvidame vos


I don't know why did you come back, if i was starting to forget about you
I don't know if you already knew it, but i cried when you left.
I don't know why did you come back, it' hurts me to remember.
Now the evening is turning grey, and i prefer to stay quiet
Why should we talk about things that no longer exist?
I don't know why did you come back, you'll see, is better if we don't talk.
It's so sad to know that at the end of our love there's nothing left
there's just a sad song that travels on my guitar
and she was missing you.. this is my song to forget about you
My song lived with me, part of my loneliness
I don't know if you already knew it, my life faded away with you..
with you, my love, with you.. it hurts me to remember.
my hands are turning dust because i've been crushing the pain
and now that the sun is missing, i don't know what are you looking for?
crying, my love, crying, you should forget about me too
It's so sad to know that at the end of our love there's nothing left
there's just a sad song that travels on my guitar
and she was missing you.. this is my song to forget about you

2020

Ah 2020. You have been upended in the most ridiculous way possible by a virus that has destroyed every single activity we do for fun, leisure, pleasure, necessity, survival. Because, humans. Was so looking forward to a year of dancing starting with the Taiwan Valentine's Tango Marathon, leading into STM v5, London, Portugal and maybe BA by the end of the year. Guess what! ALL GONE, DESTROYED. It has been a year since I went to a marathon/event. I am probably the saddest I have been when it comes to the dance front. 11 years ago I made it such a part of my identity that it has accompanied me through the years of visiting different cities for work, for holiday, for weddings, for connections, for reunions with exes, for meeting new interests. Shaped my 20's like nothing else has and only grows stronger year after year. 2020 was the reset required. Mentally, emotionally. This relationship with Tango remains my strongest and most developed of my many relationships with many a...

Malaysia Prelims & Tango Festival - Musings

Off the back of a weekend that required me to leave work early and sleep cray hours to finally get back into a semi-human mode of work and sleep. Thoughts? When I first started tango, I jumped straight into a Fire & Ice festival in Ann Arbor January of 2010. That was my first taste of a tango festival which was relatively social and a good scene in hindsight. Coming back to Malaysia I've participated in the KL Festival every single year, Singapore festival twice, Taiwan festival once (24 hour on a whim - fuck it all flight), Shanghai festival once. Other than that the flavour of the day nowadays is definitely geared more toward marathons/encuentros, and for a good reason. Festivals in this part of the world are seriously so tipped toward a certain "type" that it is far more worth my money and sanity to go for the social dancing rather than the festival format. Granted, lessons were good, always learning, picking up new things. Competition was, so-so for me, was...

I'm...Back?

Honestly, it has been a struggle to get back into Tango. I'm having a bit of difficulty figuring out why, but it might just be a combination of having disconnected from it in my regular weekly schedule because of COVID, same COVID making it impossible for me to travel to other countries to dance and join Marathons, a number of years since starting and feeling stagnated, and honestly just feeling a waning interest overall. There is still motivation there, it isn't entirely gone, but life has gotten into the way. The using Tango as a bit of an emotional crutch has also been replaced by a real life human being, so that is yet another reason for the increasingly ambivalent attitude I seem to be having to the dance nowadays. All that being said, I did just fly to Singapore this weekend for Tomas workshop and because damnit, I am fan #1 in Malaysia, unabashedly! Time to see if it's time to kickstart the organising again!
