Hello, friends of HIVE. We have reached the last Tuesday of >October and as you all know: Tuesday is music Tuesday at HIVE.
It seems unbelievable that this month is almost over. But before we finish it, we must celebrate Halloween and with the arrival of November we celebrate All Saints and All Souls Day.
Halloween is a holiday that in recent years has gained much acceptance in Latin American countries, where it has always been celebrated on November 1 and 2, the day of the Saints and the day of the dead. On this holiday, people go to the cemeteries to place candles, flowers and mementos to their deceased. They also make altars, with photographs, food, which serve to remember the love of those who went before us.
In particular, at home, we usually take flowers and candles to the cemetery, but we also gather at home to remember and listen to music. Because they say that only the one who is not remembered dies.
On this Tuesday I want to share three songs to pay tribute to our loved ones who are no longer with us and celebrate this special date of our ancestral culture.
The first song is Recuérdame, a piece of music from the movie Coco, which deals with the significance of the Day of the Dead in Mexico. The song talks about the belief that exists in our people that if we remember a person, they never die, because they live in our hearts. It is a very emotional song that will make us remember those who have passed away.
The other piece is La llorona, a song immortalized by the best voices of Mexico, such as Chavela Vargas, Lola Beltrán, Lucha Villa, Ana Gabriel, Yolanda del Río, Natalia Lafourcade, Ángela Aguilar, among others. This piece is a hymn of Mexican folklore and although it can be heard on any date, it is on the feast of the dead that people sing it to exhaustion. Some say that this piece speaks of La llorona, that spirit that wanders the streets of some towns crying for their dead children, but others say that the story is of an unfulfilled love, cut short by death. Beyond the true origin of its lyrics, it is a piece of a unique sweetness that makes your skin crawl.
Today's last song rather than celebrating the holidays, it celebrates and remembers those who are gone. Since it came out, Confieso has become a must-have piece to talk about how we miss, remember and continue to love our loved ones. Every time I listen to it I can't help but think of my father, my grandmother and now my nephew. “I confess that you miss me so much,” the song says and my heart cries again as it did in the beginning.
Celebrating the Day of the Dead is a tradition in which the memory of those who have passed away is honored. The message is to give value to remembering and not forgetting. And always keep in mind: Only those who are not remembered die.
