Mi Tierra

so then into the last medley which is Quite a few songs.

She started with Mi Tierra, Oye Mi Canto, Cuba Libre, and then Mi Tierra, a reprise of Mi Tierra.

And then there was another medley, the Miami Sound Machine Megamix, Conga, 1, 2, 3, Get On Your Feet, Dr.

Beat, Rhythm Is Gonna Get You, and then Conga.

You must have been naughty.

Exactly.

I'm sure I probably was, to be fair, but... yeah so I actually ended up buying it myself and I I can even tell you exactly it was on the 31st of December uh 1992 that I bought that album um and that's that was kind of it for me um from then on uh we were lucky that she was then on tv over here in the UK do it uh sort of uh Going About Mi Tierra was coming out and all of that was on TV.

So there was a few things she was doing, which was firstly unusual because it being a Spanish, all Spanish album.

[eco] [música alegre]

De mi tierra bella, de mi tierra santa, oigo ese grito de los tambores y los timbales, sal cumbancha.

Y ese pregón que canta un hermano que de su tierra vive lejano y que el recuerdo le hace llorar.

Una canción que vive entonando de su dolor, de su propio llanto y se le escucha penar.

La tierra suspira si no te ve más.

[música alegre] Tiene un quejido.

Mi tierra.

Tiene un lamento.

Yep.

I guess mine was Mi Tierra.

That would have been mine.

I still have that cassette too.

English or Spanish?

English.

Rob? Favorite album will always be Mi Tierra.

always um favorite era i i would say either destiny or gloria era just because in that time she was everywhere like i could go to sears and see the little stand-up i could go to sam goodie and there was a new single out every week it felt like so those eras where she was everywhere on every show you know were really special i i think i prefer spanish today No English.
