Dedicated to My Husband

Today's video is of Ana Gabriel singing Selena's Tu, Solo Tu. I tried to find a video of Selena singing this live (near impossible- thanks, Quintanilla family!) and instead discovered Ana Gabriel's homage to her.



Like many things in life, this song's lyrics can have more than one meaning. Here's my translation of the lyrics from Spanish to English:

Look how I am, my love
Because your love
Drunk and passionate
Just because your love

Look how I am, goodness
Inclined to drunkeness and perdition

You, only you
Have filled my life with mourning
Opening a wound in my heart

You, only you
are the cause of all of my crying
Of my disenchantment and desperation

Only your deadly shadow
Shadow of evil
Follows me everywhere, obstinately

And because I want to forget you
I throw myself into drunkeness and perdition

You, only you
Have filled my life with mourning
Opening a wound in my heart

You, only you
are the cause of all of my crying
Of my disenchantment and desperation


Depressing, huh? Sorry, it's still a great song!
