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

Recap 2019

Well well well, here we come again to the end of another Tango year in 2019. Granted, this year was a lot more muted for me, just one Tango Prelims Championship, one Fame Tango Weekend extravaganza, one Tango marathon (shit, just one?!). This years tango centered very much around home, no crazy travels (thanks to change in job), no multi-country tango events (thanks to no budget + no time), a smattering of lessons. But internally, centeredness, duende. Next year, Taipei Tango Weekend, Singapore Tango Marathon + Lisbon for food, travels and Tango. Where is my tango this year? 10 years since that fateful day running to Michigan Union in shorts and t-shirt with flipflops, hair wet from a swim on a balmy end of September day, 3 to 4 weeks into the new semester. Not knowing this would kickstart one of my greatest passions in this life. The one that brings me into the world of friendships, arguments, travels and meetings. All sorts of people, friends, acquaintances, annoyances. The ...

Taking classes as a lead

Tangoblitz wrapping up this weekend with Alejandra Hobart and Adrian Veredice, good sessions, always refreshing to see the level that professionals get up to. Notes, notes, notes! Parallel vs Cross Systems The L shaped lead-linear - Leader leads on dual track system (to the left and to the right of him) -Follower crosses across this track using a back step, side step and a cross over front ocho-forming L shapes zig-zagging back and forth -Leader strides forward on the beat while follower is on a 1+, 2 beat-option to twist the hip into a front boleo for the follower, leader must change weight with every 1-2 step -Leader starts on right foot and follower on left foot   which is the foot further away-Mirror start=parallel system-sacada happens to the cross over track (guy left, girl right) -Variation is to have leader start on left foot and follower on left foot-non-mirror=cross system-sacada happens on the parallel track (guy right, girl right) The L shaped lead-circu...

Simple

After the countless videos, watching the performances by passing Tango teachers, performances by stage Tango dancers, sitting and absorbing Milongas, the one couple that sticks in my mind has to be T and his fiance who met through Tango in Argentina. Their seamless blending, the fact that she didn't even need to be wearing shoes and their swapping of roles. Even though I was exposed to this early on the clueless beginnings of Tango, you could already appreciate the intimacy between the two. In hindsight after a bit more experience, it becomes even clearer that, that would be the ultimate Tango experience. It's like staring at something without the tools to understand it, then later when you come back with the tools in hand, it hits you, "ah hah!" that's what it is! It's like being told, "this will be useful in life later, trust me", and staring at math sets that have no correlation with your life, until later when you're facing a job assessme...
