Music

Since I was little music has been with me, I think that's why I couldn't define my favorite type of music. I listen to many kinds of music like Jazz, Argentine Rock, Reggae, Trap, Reggaeton and even a little bit of Pop (but not so much hahaha). I also like the studio ghibli music a lot, but I don't know what kind of music it belongs to.

Jorge Drexler. He is an Uruguayan musician, singer, composer, actor and doctor, he is currently 57 years old. Many people have told me that his music bores them because it is very quiet, but I love it. His lyrics and melodies fill me with joy, make me feel protected and at home. Listening to his music has also accompanied me in moments of sadness. Jorge Drexler is not famous like Hollywood singers but he is well known in my close circle.

My favorite Drexler song is called "Eco" and it belongs to an album made in 2004 with the same name. I think it is a wonderful song but  also a little bit sad, with beautiful lyrics and a very calm and harmonious melody. This song is more like a sung poetry, and talks about identity and loneliness. One interpretation of the lyrics is that the singer is not close to someone he loves, and the other person only hears an "echo" instead of his partner.
