I mean they already are for the Hispanics and Brazilians. I think that was enough for them, specially Cerati 🇦🇷👍🏻 he was a living legend for every argentine, and he'll always be remembered as that. since he loved his nation so much, I think that was everything he wanted
... Final Caja Negra, Uno Entre Mil, Terapia De Amor Intensiva, Puente, Lisa, Lo Que Sangra... Literalmente, hay tanto de Cerati que se hace casi imposible escoger.
Si te gusta soda estéreo, deberías escuchar a Charly García. No es rock como tal, pero fue muy experimental e inovador en su momento, creo que te puede gustar. Algunos temas buenos - hablando a tu corazón - buscando un simbolo de paz. - rezo por voz - inconciente colectivo Y no voy en tren.
Jajajajajajajajaja, es un meme pero es cierto también. Por algo es "rock nacional" para nosotros. Es cuna de DEMASIADOS buenos artistas del rock latino.
También un artista argentino, Charly García, decía que el cantante de Soda, Gustavo Cerati era el arquitecto del rock argentino. 😉👍🖐️ saludos Tucumán Argentina
If you listen to The Police and U2, you understand Soda Stereo, but at some point in the late 90s, they developed a sound all of their own and completely unique. In time, comparisons became superfluous. Soda is one of the best bands in history in any language. ¡Viva Soda!
Este tema es casi que un himno para cualquier argentino. Me encantó ver tu entusiasmo mientras ibas descubriendo la canción, gracias por el video. Saludos desde Argentina!
Interestingly, I worked with a Mexican in the years '08-'12, and he used to play Soda Stereo a lot and occasionally some songs from Gustavo Cerati's solo work, and it grew on me so much that I ended up purchasing all of Gustavo Cerati's albums, and they are absolutely fantastic. I still listen to them. Anybody who likes Soda Stereo should check out all of Gustavo's work.
Gustavo's solo work is incredible. He split with the band cause he wanted to have 100% independence on his next musical projects and he couldn't devote the effort needed for both projects
No solo de Latinoamerica, sino del mundo. Lamentablemente el rock latinoamericano esta infravalorado y no se le da la misma importancia que al rock en ingles
There is history behind this specific version. It was their last concert forever. There was a reunion later, but nothing like this one. His last phrase, Gracias totales (something like "total thanks"), became a common phrase in Argentina when you really want to say thanks to someone. It's not common in Spanish
Hey guys, you need some context to this particular song and event. This was supposed to be the last concert ever (they disintegrated, but came back later for a final tour) and this was the number one song in their repertoire, everyone was waiting for this song and they played it the last. That's why the emphasis in the build up at the start of the song, and the playful end of it with the drums. Gracias totales!
Thank you for doing Soda ! I am not even from Latin America, I am from Eastern Europe, but I have studied Spanish for years and that is how I got to know Soda. They are one of my favorite bands, glad they are getting some recognition outside of Spanish speaking community! ❤ Soda
Thanks for your kindgard words my friend, amazing you could know Soda Stereo, they are the greatest in spanish speaking countries. I love Russia, greetings from Argentina
Hey Elizabeth! I am a guitar player, NOT latin, but Soda has been one of my favorite bands for over thirty years and Cerati is one of my guitar gods. When I heard of his stroke and eventual passing it was devastating. Anyway, as for his sound here, I can tell you that he is playing a Paul Reed Smith guitar through (mainly) a Vox AC30 amp (at least that's how he recorded this song). He has it set to overdrive enough so that, when he really strums hard, the signal distorts, but upon a lighter touch it remains bell-like and tingly. For the solo there, he's using (or WAS using in studio) an Eventide H-3000 harmonizer, which was super cool and trendy back in the late 80's. It is adding harmonic elements as he plays. Also, the nature of the solo is that he is pulling notes off onto open strings, so it sounds like cascading notes at times. He was a magician and beautiful songwriter and the world lost an amazing voice in him 15 years ago. RIP Gustavo...
Just a small and pedantic correction: Cerati died in 2014, that would make it 9 years at the time of your comment, not 15 (13 if we count when he had the stroke).
You picked the perfect example of an enormous wave of “rock en español” happened in the 80s & 90s. Soda embraced all Latin-American countries and pushed the rock music to a top level. For being chosen this song, as Gustavo said, “gracias totales”
I just discovered this band about a month ago-I'm 65 and was a professional musician through most of the 80s and 90s, which is when this music was actually made-and I've been listening to Soda Stereo NON-STOP, every single day of those thirty. I'm kind of surprised that you picked this particular song out of their entire catalogue; while it's a great song, it does not come close to showing Cerati's incredible four-octave vocal range, which blew me away, as did his capacity for staying on the pitch throughout (actually, in this performance I heard a couple of rare flats) because, well, playing guitar, remembering the words and jumping around are not exactly conducive to staying pitch perfect. But there are simply so many of Soda Stereo's live songs-see their "Gira Me Veras Volver" tour series, all on TH-cam-where my jaw just dropped and I had to rewind time and again to say "Did that just happen? Did he really hit those notes?" because they were truly superhuman. Later on tonight, on my daily "Soda Stereo Tour" where all I do is listen to them, I'll try to note down the songs that I'm referring to. I swear, I cried when I found out he had lingered in a coma for FOUR YEARS before he died, and *all before I had ever heard of them.* ***LATER*** Okay, I found the song I was thinking of where he shows us his incredible vocal range. It's called "Cuando Pase El Temblor" and it's live and I've copied the link to it that starts the section where he blew me away (you owe it to yourself to listen to the whole thing but for now the link is at th-cam.com/video/eqXHckx7zls/w-d-xo.html But the ultimate showcase of Gustavo Cerati's voice-plus, in my opinion the second-best song they ever wrote is "En La Ciudad De La Furia," and it's at th-cam.com/video/VoGwvVoaoCw/w-d-xo.html.
You are great and many thanks to you for this kindgard words. Soda Stereo and Gustavo Cerati itself (in his solo carrer) is like an adiction, one day you know them you can't stop of listening. Soda is very important to Argentinians and the most iconic band in Latin America (and also of Rock in Spanish or Rock en Español). I recommend you to listen the songs "Genesis" and "Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver" from their MTV Music presentation Confort y Musica para Volar, "Estoy azulado", "En la ciudad de la furia" (Los Angeles, USA, 1989). Also, try the Velez Sarsfield concert in Buenos Aires from 1990. The English band Coldplay versioned "De musica ligera" song too. Blessings to you and welcome to Soda and Gustav o music world !!!!!
@@mharg6408 Yes, I must say that even though I don't understand the lyrics, except when I see a translation, the music and Gustavo Cerati's voice alone are enough to make me want to listen again and again like I have just discovered a new Beatles. When I began to read about Soda Stereo I was shocked that Gustavo had died almost ten years ago and that I had never heard a note of his music, that he would never make again, and I cried, His songs, especially Candy Pase El Temblor, hold a melancholy that shines through, and even on first listening to it I cried. No other music has ever done this to me. But he lives on in TH-cam (and also a Netflix series about rock in Latin America called "Break It All" in which all the most famous names of Latin rock look at Gustavo as almost a god. I think he is laughing in heaven . . .
@@TheCharismaticVoice hola! Luego da una oportunidad a otra banda Argentina. Gazpacho con su tema " Arbol Rojo" . Un gran tema que no te decepcionara!
ciudad de la furia es mil veces mejor, o el MTV unplugged, temas como profugos, musica ligera, son los temas mas basicos,comerciales, menos interesantes
Argentinian crowds are some of the best (if not the very best) in the world. Argentinian rock nacional is a wealth of incredible music! I'm from Seattle, USA, but lived there for many years. Sadly I never got to see Soda, but every single show I went to in BA was electrifying. Really the best. This entire double album of this show is excellent and I think even better when you've listened to the studio versions and know what's coming and the small changes they chose to make live. Gracias totales Soda ❤
I am 43 now. I live in the states but I am originally from Costa Rica. When I was 6 years old I heard Soda Stereo from the first time. Most of Latin Americans know about them but the strangest moment was when Gustavo Cerati entered into a coma in 2010 and never woke up. He passed away in 2014. It was a sad news for many of us. Great reaction Elizabeth! Thank you for considering other languages and other cultures!! ❤
That show was in Venezuela and I was there,!! They stop the concert, we think that Gustavo got healthy troubles but never imagined that it was the beginning of the death of the most bigger Latin American rock star
You have no idea. I went to Soda Stereo’s first concert in Bogotá, Colombia. I was 21. We called them “Their Highness Soda Stereo”. They were the kings of rock in Spanish. There hasn’t been a rock group that comes close to their masterpieces of songs. The best of the best!
Soda Stereo was the biggest rock band in Latinamerica's history. This was their last live song on their last live concert before the split of the band (1997), that's why they are saying goodbye and total thanks to their fans. De Música Ligera was covered by Coldplay on their last concerts in Argentina in 2022. Best regards from Chile!! 🙂
This was their last concert in Argentina before the band split up in 1997. The closing song of that concert. The energy and the love from all those years can be felt. And as the song states: "Nothing else remains" (Nada mas queda) They reunited in 2007, I was lucky to see them live before we lost Gustavo =(
Great choice for analysis. I am an American living in Mexico and recall the first time hearing Soda Stereo. It was a song called Disco Eterno which has a catchy guitar lick. It was in a downtown Tijuana bar when on the jukebox the song came on. I'm in my 60's, so I turn to the kids who played the song and I asked, "Who is this?. They explained Soda Stereo to me and they told me their favorite songs by them. I really have to say, I think Gustavo was an absolute musical genius and passed way too soon. My favorite song now by them is Hombre Al Agua, a must listen to song of Soda Stereo...hopefully you can analyze that one in the future.
Gracias por el comentario. De parte de un argentino de 50 años que hace 30 vive en Brasil. Se extraña la casa de cada uno y sus ídolos y también se aprende de otras culturas. Por eso te agradezco. Gustavo y Soda fueron muy influyentes en mi juventud y en mis gustos musicales
Bueno, el contexto era que se despedían de su público, despues de haber demostrado por años que Soda fue uno de los picos más altos del rock de América. Marcó un antes y un despues, por eso esa comunicación tan especial entre ellos y su público. La verdad se extraña esta magia, estos encuentros, porque cuando salías de un show de Soda o de Redondos, o Las Pelotas, siempre hay una atmósfera hermana, amiga que te da o te hace sentir seguro. Me alegra saber que lo disfrutaras y que te agradó. Toda mi admiración.
Exacto, no sé si ella al momento de hacer este video estuvo al tanto del contexto del momento que estaba viviendo la banda, la despedida el último concierto en Argentina, su país. La magia que envuelve a Cerati y a Soda en general.
There's a particularly symbiotic relationship between artists and crowd in Argentina. They feed off of each others energy and enthusiasm which usually results in concerts that are beyond everyone's imagination. You can hear it from almost every artist that plays here, most of them say "I've never seen something like it anywhere else".
Thank you so much for choosing this band and this song to analize. They were one of the best Argentinian bands of all times. We miss his beautiful voice so much but he definitely lives in our hearts. Greetings from Argentina!
The irony behind this song is that the lyrics are about someone who aims to write a legendary song, a song that is regarded as light, and loved by people, and regarded as a classic. It was inspired by certain tracks of this kind Cerati used to listen. The song is described as a woman in the lyrics. This is what wikipedia says: "In the first two verses, Cerati sings "ella durmió al calor de las masas, y yo desperté queriendo soñarla" (she slept to the heat of the masses, and I woke up wanting to dream about her). The expression is both beautiful and complex: it expresses a clash of states that are worlds apart (sleep and wakefulness), but also the desire to dream of that which has awakened him, to be reunited with her in his own dream. It also expresses her unconsciousness, lulled by the effect of the masses, faced with his lucidity, he cannot help waking up and seeing things as they really are. Then he sings "algún tiempo atrás pensé en escribirle" (some time ago I thought about writing to her) but mysteriously informs us that he could not overcome "las trampas del amor" (the traps of love). The lyrics then conclude telling everyone that he will not send "cenizas de rosas" (ashes of roses), and "ni pienso evitar un roce secreto" (nor he will avoid a secret touch), confirming the duality that awakens "aquel amor de música ligera" (that easy-listening-music love)." De Música Ligera in itself ended up becoming exactly that. This catchy, fresh, light legendary classic.
Interesting analysis... In my not qualified opinion, the lyrics plays with the duality of the song you mentioned and a "summer love" as referred in Argentinean Spanish, a "light music love" (a love that flourish during a summer holiday and then just fade in time, coming back as just a distant memory randomly remembered years down the road)... That is "nada nos libra" (but) "nada más queda"... we all had it, and we all have lost it....
Personally, I see it as a emotional hangover. "She slept , warmed by the masses And I woke up, wanting to dream her" The protagonist realizes that she was better in dreams that in reality. "Some time ago, I thought about writing to her, That I never evaded the traps of love" Now I believe he regrets falling for the trap, which he finally did in spite of thinking once he never would. "From that smooth music love, Nothing frees us, Nothing else remains" It depicts some sort of torment: He can't forget the moment but can't help accepting it is gone. "I won't send her ashes of roses, Nor avoid a secret touch" He insists: Doesn't make sense to grieve the loss of love or to blame it on her, but he will console himself with (what it seems) a jerkoff. Then the chorus again. This song cries of hurt in spite of sounding like a cheerful anthem
Wow man.. Thanks so much for explaining that. It is very hard to really understand the lyrics that well. Specially since Spanish is my second language. Thanks again
It's hard to overstate how popular Soda Stereo was and is in Latin America. I got introduced to them by my now wife because she brought back their first three albums from Chile after she spent a year there as an exchange student in the 80s. They were really good!
Esta música teve duas versões no Brasil, com Paralamas do Sucesso e Capital Inicial. Fantástica banda Argentina, Soda Stereo! E o público Argentino é simplesmente o mais incrível!!
seee.. opino igual!... es verdad que es una balada super tranqui... pero la flaca analiza, sin importar el estilo.. y para eso, Profugos es un excelente ejemplo, además de innegable La ciudad de la furia.. Párrafo aparte, que todo lo que "Latinoamérica" incluye, haya elegido Soda.. todo un orgullo... y que triste que esta bestia ya no esté mas entre nosotros :/
Absolutely loved the analysis. I’ve seen/heard this entire concert 100s of times and you’ve pointed out things I never considered. As others mentioned, this particular performance you reacted to happens to be the very last song of their very “last” concert of their break up tour. They were saying goodbye. At the end he basically gives a speech of gratitude for the 14 yrs of love and support & finishes of with the immortal words “Gracias Totales!”. This song, un ironically is their most commercial song. The lyrics allude to the state of the rock/music industry & how commercialized it had become. Cerati was an incredible composer/guitarist/frontman/performer/singer. He was truly the whole package. Please continue with more Soda Stereo!! There are much better songs than this one.
Y los sonidos de sus guitarras eran muy elaborados. Realmente tenía muchas horas invertidas con distintos pedales, logrando reproducir las ideas que tenía en su cabeza. También es cierto...que la banda superaba en sus shows, sus propias grabaciones de estudio. Algo bastante loco.
Wuau!! Amazing review!! I loved your face listening for the first time Soda Stereo. I would like to see mine 33 years ago when I hear this song for the first time... I think I cried today!! Thanks for this great video. :)
Hola! yo soy de Mexico y estoy emocionado por ver el análisis, ya que desconozco si Elizabeth sabe español, al igual desconozco si ella a escuchado rock en español antes, realmente emocionado, por que al menos para mi es misterioso lo que comente antes, espero el canal explore no solo el español, si no que de igual forma otros idiomas de vez en cuando, Muchas gracias por acercarnos de esta forma, a tu público en Latam, Charismatic Voice
"Rock en Español" is an entire genre in and of itself with amazing singers. Definitely Soda Stereo is one of its greatest proponents, going far beyond their country of Argentina. I'm from Panamá and almost everyone here knows them.
He in the solo use the B second string as a pedal note, delay and chorus. He was such creative guitarrist with their sound in every aspect.This solo seems to be easy but actually making the pedal note at the right times is quite arduous. He was also one of the most virtuoso guitarists in Argentina, not in the way he played fast, but the musical taste, rhythm, and the complicated phrases he played while singing.
In studio version, he used a rotary speaker or "leslie". Live version probably was a version of a chorus from his Roland GP8 or a leslie emulation from his Eventide H3000.
Love the choice to react to Soda Stereo! I am not from Latin America, but much of my childhood was spent living there. I was in high school in Chile in the mid-to-late 80s, and Soda Stereo was everywhere! I’ve been a fan ever since! Please do more of their songs!
Hi Elizabeth, I was looking for someone who had explained to you the guitar sound but I did not see anyone. Gustavo was very much into ethereal and clean sounds, delays, choruses, flangers, reverbs and he would mix his sound to give the song an identity sort of speak. Every song they had, had a different guitar sound that would immediately give away the song. Not only he was skilled in his taste for sounds, he also was a guitar extraordinaire. Their dynamics and textures like you said were amazing for a trio, they not only did it well, they had so much fun with it it was contagious. I hope this small contribution can help. I recommend you to do "Profugos". Amazing delay work.
Rip Ceratti un ídolo del rock latinoamericano (latin-american rock idol). Last words of the concert that still we all remember: "No sólo no hubiéramos sido nada sin ustedes, sino con toda la gente que estuvo a nuestro alrededor desde el comienzo. Algunos siguen hasta hoy… ¡Gracias totales!" Thanking the people at the concert and all the followers who supported them from the beginning, those last 2 words: "Gracias totales" were epic, considering he said something like "Totally thank you" instead of "Muchas gracias" ("Thank you very much" ). The way he said it, with the pause after "Gracias..." and before "...totales" was immortalized in our hearts.
Great driving music! Another 'new' band to me. It's a shame more of this isn't available around the world. Too many of we Americans miss out on great bands/music/artists- usually to not looking for it. This is a good example of what else is out there. Loved it.
This song from Soad Stereo is a Rock Anthem in all of Latin America. Growing up in Mexico I remember we would lose it every time it was played, and later as a teen in the 90's even more. Now in my 40's its even better. Greetings from Australia
30 something y/o here, but I got into rock because of my dad and he would play me everything he grew up with in the 70's and 80's and when he would blast this on our way to school at 6AM my sisters and I would just be so happy singing at the top of our lungs. I think Soda Stereo like many of the bands that came up with it have an uncanny hook to reach a wide range that transcends time. Truly they use to make honest timeless music. Shame they are no longer together. Also greetings from Puerto Rico.
At the end of the song he said: "Not only would we have been nothing without you, but with all the people who were around us from the beginning, some of them, continue to this day. TOTAL THANKS". and that was their farewell show (as a studio band).
"Soda Stereo is a rock band from Argentina, not from Brazil. Perhaps, along with "Los Redondos," they are the most representative band of Argentine national rock and Spanish-language rock."
I just caught this and was able to cut my mistake out of the intro. I feel so bad! Not sure where it got confused in my head... maybe because I was listening to Shaman just before? I'm thankful for being notified of the error so that I could correct it.
Soda Stereo son de Argentina pero se hicieron tan grandes que llenaban estadios desde México hasta Chile. En el último tiempo, quizás por las redes sociales y TH-cam, el público europeo la ha estado descubriendo. Hasta en medios de comunicación ingleses han publicado notas sobre ellos. También artistas como Coldplay han reconocido sus preferencias (Chris Martin se tatuó una frase de Gustavo Cerati) sobre la banda de rock porteña (de Buenos Aires). 🚶🏼
@@TheCharismaticVoice hi elizabeth, can you please do a vocal analysis on a song called "BATTLEGROUND" by slash featuring myles kennedy? P.s. I think you'll love it.❤
Soda Stereo also has an MTV unplugged and Gustavo has a record from later on his solo career called Episodios Sinfonicos that he also played live. 100% recommended. Also! If you are looking for more rock en español, Mecano, Heroes del Silencio, Los Aterciopelados, Fito Paez, Cafe Tacuba, there are so many!
Every single one of these recommendations is top notch. In a vocal level Héroes del Silencio will absolutely floor you. Mecano has insane compositions. They're all golden!
Gustavo has been called an architect of sound by a lot of his older peers, and I feel like that’s SUCH a correct description for him and his sound. Him and Soda absolutely never disappoint!
As they've mentioned to you, Soda Stereo is a rock band from Argentina. The image you provide in the thumbnail is from "El Ultimo Concierto" from 1997. I urge you to review songs from the tour " Me verás volver" from 2007. There are countless gems in it.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA, I HOLD MY BREATH ON THE FIRST PAUSE U DID CAUSE ITS BEFORE THE DROP. thank u for giving this gem and MONSTER of a band the love it deserves. theyre the rockstars of our country ♥ lots of love from freaking argentina
To me this is the best band that ever lived. In Spanish, English, any language. If you listen to the album "Signos" for example, every single song is a hit. That is almost impossible to achieve.
Soda Stereo's legacy throughout Latin America is undeniably massive. I started playing in a cover band here in México and probably 75% of all our covers were from Soda Stereo. Legends among legends. Greetings to my fellow Latin American brothers and sisters, especially back in Argentina, and greetings to our Opera Queen!
Thanks for this video, I wish you'd had more context to this song in this concert, it was the band's thanks and farewell before splitting as a homage to their fans, this was meant to be their last live performance. And the song is a classic anthem. As Latin artists go you'd have a good time listening to Shakira, I'd encourage you to check out her earlier work Ojos así (song) has some great vocals but all through Pies descalzos and Dónde están los ladrones (both early albums) you'll find awesome vocalising. Thanks for your great work 🙏🏼
I love how she amazed she is not only at Soda, but also at the crowd! Soda Stereo was huge here in Argentina, and Gustavo left a legacy behind we all treasure.
Elizabeth, you should analize the song "Corazón Delator" live, he sang in an Opera house in Buenos Aires as part of his "11 Episodios Sinfónicos" (11 Symphonic Episodes) album with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. I think you would find that performance particularly amusing.
The biggest legend of rock in Spanish of all time. By far. No doubt. Just a genius out of this world. No one has ever even been close to his perfection, no matter what they say. Really
How can a 43-year-old Brazilian like myself not know this Argentinian band and song? I mean, I know the Brazilain version 'A Sua Maneira', but... this is awesome!
Sencillo, Brasil se encierra en su música , que no está mal pero en cuanto al Rock, creo que Argentina ocupa un lugar ineludible en el repertorio universal. Si después no te gusta es otro asunto
Você ainda perdeu o cover que os Paralamas do Sucesso fizeram em 1999, se não me engano, no álbum 9 luas. De música ligeira, bem mais fiel ao original. Longa vida a Soda Stereo y a nuestros hermanos!
I am from Costa Rica. Soda Stereo, they were more than musicians they were music GODS! Every now and then one of their songs catches me off guard somewhere and I get goosebumps every time.
What makes this video somehow emotive is the fact that the song is the last from a big concert that last more than 2 hours, and the album in which this tracks comes in is called "El Último Concierto" which translates as "The Last Concert". It was a way of saying there will be no more Soda Stereo anymore :'( That last speech from Gustavo Cerati says something like: "Not only would we have been nothing without you, but with all the people who were around us from the beginning. Some of you continue to this day! Thank you... total!" (I don't know how to translate that very last expression, but it is now a very famous phrase which people uses to remember Cerati: "Gracias... totales!")
Totales is just plural for total… which doesn’t make a lot of sense unless you say in totality … Spanish is weird and difficult sometimes for no reason 😂
🖐from Texas. I enjoy your reactions very much. I was a teeneger when this song came out in México. This song along with " EN LA CIUDAD DE LA FURIA" ARE EMBLEMATIC OF SPANISH ROCK ALL OVER LATIN AMÉRICA. It made me cry when l found out that he spent about 4 years in a coma before his family decided to finally let him go
As a Latina myself from south america this is an iconic song for us. Actually, Cold Play loves to play this song when he goes to Argentina. There is a video where he talks about the first time he played this song for Argentinians and it was a great experience for him. Also from Argentina listed to Enanitos Verdes and Mujer Amante de Rata Blanca also from Argentina.
Wow thanks a lot Elizabeth!! It's an honour for us, Argentinian people, that you're reacting and saying so many flattery things to one of our most preciated national bands. Gustavo was a truly national treasure, he sadly fell into a coma in 2010 and passed away in 2014... we will always miss him.
His voice and lyrics were unique. I miss him so much ❤ I'm just thankful that even though I started listening to Gustavo and Soda Stereo after they broke up, I was still able to see him perform live quite a few times during his solo career, including Soda Stereo's reunion tour.
estoy llorando en este momento..escucharlos y sentir esa nostalgia mezclada con el dolor de su ausencia tenemos un doble duelo como argentinos: Soda y Gustavo
Yo soy de Argentina, fanática de Soda Stereo vi esto,y vi como reaccionas y la verdad la multitud que manejamos los argentinos en un concierto es impresionante como se conectan con la banda,y el tono de voz de Gustavo es impresionante, Gustavo es eterno por siempre
There's tons of other good songs from them! My favorite definitely is Corazón Delator. I hope you make more videos about them! Hugs from Santa Fe! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷 Edit: at the beginning he tells his audience "I have a good song to sing". And at the end he thanks the people that had been and were around them, from which, comes a very iconic phrase: "Gracias totales" (total thanks).
Enorme emoción al ver a Gustavo ahí de nuevo. Ahí lo tengo en mi recuerdo. Cómo el genio que sigue siendo. Su música y su legado vivirá en mi corazón para siempre. Gracias por hacer este video.
Soda Stereo,....si no es la mejor es una de las 5 mejores bandas de rock en español! Muchos latinos opinan de la misma manera. Saludos cordiales desde la ciudad de México.
Está dentro de las mejores, sin duda. Para mí, Los Jaivas puede ser la mejor de todas (considerando que cumplen 60 EN ACTIVO), pero Soda, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Los Prisioneros, y muchas otras son simplemente geniales, que el top 5 queda chico realmente! Eng: It's one of the best bands, no doubt. For me, Los Jaivas can be the best of all (considering they have 60 years RUNNING as a band), but Soda, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Los Prisioneros and so many others are just great, that the top 5 is so crowded really! And for Elizabeth, if you want to discover Los Jaivas, they have a masterpiece called La Poderosa Muerte (The Powerful Death), a song that span for more than 11 minutes, and that was filmed on top of Macchu Pichu, the greatest piece of Inca ruins in Peru
@@SrNov-wv1pd Es muy debatible, porque no por estar en un Salón de la Fama eres objetivamente la mejor. Puedes ser solamente la más conocida, pero eso no te hace ser mejor, debido a que la música es muy subjetiva y dependiente de lo que le provoca a personas individuales
I was in the audience that night That was the last song of their final concert before they split up, that is why the crowd was so excited, greetings from Argentina!
Hola Elizabeth soy de Colombia y Soda Estereo es de las bandas más icónicas de Rock en América Latina, nos sabemos y cantamos muchas de sus canciones porque las recordamos desde que éramos unos niños .... SALUDOS DESDE COLOMBIA !!
Hace unos años, para un Feria de Cali, el Grupo Niche estaba atrasado, entonces para distraer a la gente pusieron canciones populares. Cuando pusieron esta cancion, le juro eran más de 40 mil bocas cantandola a todo pulmón.
There is no doubt... Music is more than music, is an Universal Language, and everyone can speak it. De aquel amoooor! De musica ligera, nada nos libra, nada más queda... Desde México saludos. What an Iconic Band, RIP Gustavo Cerati.
Thank you so much for your reaction Elizabeth!. Soda Stereo is one of the most beloved bands in Latin America, specially in Argentina, where they are from. Greetings 🙋❤️from an Argentinian 🇦🇷💙🤍💙living in Los Ángeles 🇺🇲.
Lived in Peru in the mid-1980s during Soda’s meteoric rise. Gustavo Cerati- RIP- a genius who inspired countless musicians. Deserved a larger stage- thank you for doing this. Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver is my personal fave
La más grande de Latinoamérica. La más grande banda argentina en cuanto a masividad, los redondos. En cuanto a Música rock, Serú Giran. Spinetta, etc. Soda es una enorme banda de rock Argentina. Lo encriptado de Spinetta y el Indio, por ejemplo, en sus letras y su complejidad no lo hace popular fuera de argentina, soda tiene letras más simples, más popera si queres.
Es raro lo que voy a decir, pero creo que es así. La banda más grande de América Latina es Soda Stereo, pero la banda más grande de Argentina son Los Redondos. Es decir, para Latinoamérica la banda que a más gente le llegó es Soda, pero en Argentina la banda que a más gente le llegó son Los Redondos. Yo adoro a ambas.
If only latin rock was as respected as English rock, these guys would be top 10 for sure
Personally , I regard Cerati at the same level of John Lennon or Bob Dylan
I mean they already are for the Hispanics and Brazilians. I think that was enough for them, specially Cerati 🇦🇷👍🏻 he was a living legend for every argentine, and he'll always be remembered as that. since he loved his nation so much, I think that was everything he wanted
@@wachox totalmente de acuerdo con UD.
@@wachox Yeap, me too. I think that Soda was to LatinAmerica as The Beatles were to the world early on.
@@VaninasantaSi, solo que los beatles son importantes hasta para nosotros, y para cualquier parte del mundo.
Being Mexican I can only say thank you to Argentina for gifting the world with SODA STEREO
La versión de " Sobredosis de TV " con The Supremes, que tocaron en México, no tiene parangón ... La ROMPIERON !!! 👋👋👋👋👋🇦🇷

A few great songs from Soda:
- En la ciudad de la furia
- Profugos
- Un millon de años luz
Pero para un análisis más enfocado en la voz de Cerati, cuáles serían la canciones correctas? Solamente se me ocurre "Sueles Dejarme Solo".
🚶🏼
Que buena :), una también (no es muy conocida) pero es muy agradable "El rito"
no existes
Son demasiadas... Yo incluiría 'Mundo De Quimeras'.
... Final Caja Negra, Uno Entre Mil, Terapia De Amor Intensiva, Puente, Lisa, Lo Que Sangra... Literalmente, hay tanto de Cerati que se hace casi imposible escoger.
Debo admitir que los argentinos tienen un talento especial para hacer musica de alta calidad. Saludos desde Argentina.
Si te gusta soda estéreo, deberías escuchar a Charly García. No es rock como tal, pero fue muy experimental e inovador en su momento, creo que te puede gustar. Algunos temas buenos
- hablando a tu corazón
- buscando un simbolo de paz.
- rezo por voz
- inconciente colectivo
Y no voy en tren.

SODA STEREO is the perfect union between melody, poetry, voices and creativity. With a very own and original style

If you listen to The Police and U2, you understand Soda Stereo, but at some point in the late 90s, they developed a sound all of their own and completely unique. In time, comparisons became superfluous. Soda is one of the best bands in history in any language. ¡Viva Soda!
definitely, they were some of the bands he was highly inspired by and loved…listening to 80s U2 almost feels like an english prologue to Soda Stereo
The Cure, some creole music and an invisible touch of tango inspiration.
They remind me to early Simple Minds too.
Basta escuchar Sweet Sahumerio del disco Dynamo (1992) de Soda Stereo para ver de dónde salieron un par de canciones de Zooropa (1993) de U2
@@omarc67 Siempre lo he dicho, Soda se adelantó a U2, o quizá estos últimos "se inspiraron" en la banda argentina.

Interestingly, I worked with a Mexican in the years '08-'12, and he used to play Soda Stereo a lot and occasionally some songs from Gustavo Cerati's solo work, and it grew on me so much that I ended up purchasing all of Gustavo Cerati's albums, and they are absolutely fantastic. I still listen to them. Anybody who likes Soda Stereo should check out all of Gustavo's work.
yeah!
he was a genius
Gustavo's solo work is incredible. He split with the band cause he wanted to have 100% independence on his next musical projects and he couldn't devote the effort needed for both projects
Welcome...Ceratiano!
They have always been a big deal in México!
Uno de los mejores artistas de Latinoamérica, su música traspasa generaciones. Fue una gran pérdida para todos su temprana partida.
se lo extraña con todo el corazón :,)

There is history behind this specific version. It was their last concert forever. There was a reunion later, but nothing like this one. His last phrase, Gracias totales (something like "total thanks"), became a common phrase in Argentina when you really want to say thanks to someone. It's not common in Spanish
Es cierto! 😊
Esa frase es icónica en todo Latinoamérica, legendarios.
Well said hermano
Gracias totales is a Latin American thing now and forever
I just had tears in my eyes from reading this. My Argentinian girlfriend would be proud.
Hey guys, you need some context to this particular song and event. This was supposed to be the last concert ever (they disintegrated, but came back later for a final tour) and this was the number one song in their repertoire, everyone was waiting for this song and they played it the last. That's why the emphasis in the build up at the start of the song, and the playful end of it with the drums. Gracias totales!
Also, it was in Argentina I believe.
Yes, this was performed in Buenos Aires. I personally love they live performances@@SYN30STM
@@SYN30STM Yes, River Plate Stadium.
That "Gracias totales" is a meme even today.

Thank you for doing Soda ! I am not even from Latin America, I am from Eastern Europe, but I have studied Spanish for years and that is how I got to know Soda. They are one of my favorite bands, glad they are getting some recognition outside of Spanish speaking community! ❤ Soda

@@CARLOS-YONNIUbicate..no seas irrespetuoso. No dijo que fuera española.
Hey Elizabeth! I am a guitar player, NOT latin, but Soda has been one of my favorite bands for over thirty years and Cerati is one of my guitar gods. When I heard of his stroke and eventual passing it was devastating. Anyway, as for his sound here, I can tell you that he is playing a Paul Reed Smith guitar through (mainly) a Vox AC30 amp (at least that's how he recorded this song). He has it set to overdrive enough so that, when he really strums hard, the signal distorts, but upon a lighter touch it remains bell-like and tingly. For the solo there, he's using (or WAS using in studio) an Eventide H-3000 harmonizer, which was super cool and trendy back in the late 80's. It is adding harmonic elements as he plays. Also, the nature of the solo is that he is pulling notes off onto open strings, so it sounds like cascading notes at times. He was a magician and beautiful songwriter and the world lost an amazing voice in him 15 years ago. RIP Gustavo...
great remarks, you should check Walter Giardino, guitarr and leader of rata blanca, he is another beast with the six strings.
Just a small and pedantic correction: Cerati died in 2014, that would make it 9 years at the time of your comment, not 15 (13 if we count when he had the stroke).
No imaginé ver a Soda Stereo en tu canal! Qué emoción 😭

You picked the perfect example of an enormous wave of “rock en español” happened in the 80s & 90s. Soda embraced all Latin-American countries and pushed the rock music to a top level. For being chosen this song, as Gustavo said, “gracias totales”
lo que dijo fue "gracias................................................................totales"
I just discovered this band about a month ago-I'm 65 and was a professional musician through most of the 80s and 90s, which is when this music was actually made-and I've been listening to Soda Stereo NON-STOP, every single day of those thirty.
I'm kind of surprised that you picked this particular song out of their entire catalogue; while it's a great song, it does not come close to showing Cerati's incredible four-octave vocal range, which blew me away, as did his capacity for staying on the pitch throughout (actually, in this performance I heard a couple of rare flats) because, well, playing guitar, remembering the words and jumping around are not exactly conducive to staying pitch perfect.
But there are simply so many of Soda Stereo's live songs-see their "Gira Me Veras Volver" tour series, all on TH-cam-where my jaw just dropped and I had to rewind time and again to say "Did that just happen? Did he really hit those notes?" because they were truly superhuman.
Later on tonight, on my daily "Soda Stereo Tour" where all I do is listen to them, I'll try to note down the songs that I'm referring to.
I swear, I cried when I found out he had lingered in a coma for FOUR YEARS before he died, and *all before I had ever heard of them.*
***LATER***
Okay, I found the song I was thinking of where he shows us his incredible vocal range. It's called "Cuando Pase El Temblor" and it's live and I've copied the link to it that starts the section where he blew me away (you owe it to yourself to listen to the whole thing but for now the link is at th-cam.com/video/eqXHckx7zls/w-d-xo.html
But the ultimate showcase of Gustavo Cerati's voice-plus, in my opinion the second-best song they ever wrote is "En La Ciudad De La Furia," and it's at th-cam.com/video/VoGwvVoaoCw/w-d-xo.html.
You are great and many thanks to you for this kindgard words. Soda Stereo and Gustavo Cerati itself (in his solo carrer) is like an adiction, one day you know them you can't stop of listening. Soda is very important to Argentinians and the most iconic band in Latin America (and also of Rock in Spanish or Rock en Español). I recommend you to listen the songs "Genesis" and "Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver" from their MTV Music presentation Confort y Musica para Volar, "Estoy azulado", "En la ciudad de la furia" (Los Angeles, USA, 1989). Also, try the Velez Sarsfield concert in Buenos Aires from 1990. The English band Coldplay versioned "De musica ligera" song too.
Blessings to you and welcome to Soda and Gustav o music world !!!!!
@@mharg6408 Yes, I must say that even though I don't understand the lyrics, except when I see a translation, the music and Gustavo Cerati's voice alone are enough to make me want to listen again and again like I have just discovered a new Beatles. When I began to read about Soda Stereo I was shocked that Gustavo had died almost ten years ago and that I had never heard a note of his music, that he would never make again, and I cried,
His songs, especially Candy Pase El Temblor, hold a melancholy that shines through, and even on first listening to it I cried. No other music has ever done this to me.
But he lives on in TH-cam (and also a Netflix series about rock in Latin America called "Break It All" in which all the most famous names of Latin rock look at Gustavo as almost a god.
I think he is laughing in heaven . . .

Argentinian crowds are some of the best (if not the very best) in the world. Argentinian rock nacional is a wealth of incredible music! I'm from Seattle, USA, but lived there for many years. Sadly I never got to see Soda, but every single show I went to in BA was electrifying. Really the best. This entire double album of this show is excellent and I think even better when you've listened to the studio versions and know what's coming and the small changes they chose to make live. Gracias totales Soda ❤
Aguante el grunge❤
yes, Argentinian crowd is the best of the world. Both in music and football.
Brilliant! Argentinians make some of the best music and this band is iconic! Much love from Mexico!
“En la cuidad de la furia” is another one of their amazing tracks, they also play it at this concert
I am 43 now. I live in the states but I am originally from Costa Rica. When I was 6 years old I heard Soda Stereo from the first time. Most of Latin Americans know about them but the strangest moment was when Gustavo Cerati entered into a coma in 2010 and never woke up. He passed away in 2014. It was a sad news for many of us. Great reaction Elizabeth! Thank you for considering other languages and other cultures!! ❤
Hola compatriota, saludos cordiales desde Desamparados 🇨🇷
Eso maes 🎉
Which states? You need to say: UNITED STATES OF...
That show was in Venezuela and I was there,!! They stop the concert, we think that Gustavo got healthy troubles but never imagined that it was the beginning of the death of the most bigger Latin American rock star
@@ricardorodriguez9587 Saludos mae pura vida!
You have no idea. I went to Soda Stereo’s first concert in Bogotá, Colombia. I was 21. We called them “Their Highness Soda Stereo”. They were the kings of rock in Spanish. There hasn’t been a rock group that comes close to their masterpieces of songs. The best of the best!
Soda Stereo was the biggest rock band in Latinamerica's history. This was their last live song on their last live concert before the split of the band (1997), that's why they are saying goodbye and total thanks to their fans.
De Música Ligera was covered by Coldplay on their last concerts in Argentina in 2022.
Best regards from Chile!! 🙂
Actually by total sold albums was Maná. But the influence Soda had over several generations is what makes them big. Not the biggest tho.
@@shesh_o Maná is a pop band, Soda is a rock band.
Also covered by Tarja Turunen and I'm sure many others that won't come to mind until I've posted this comment hahaha
Agree, biggest latín rock band to date.
@@shesh_o yeah... But Maná, nice and all, is not rock.
This was their last concert in Argentina before the band split up in 1997. The closing song of that concert. The energy and the love from all those years can be felt. And as the song states: "Nothing else remains" (Nada mas queda)
They reunited in 2007, I was lucky to see them live before we lost Gustavo =(
Great choice for analysis. I am an American living in Mexico and recall the first time hearing Soda Stereo. It was a song called Disco Eterno which has a catchy guitar lick. It was in a downtown Tijuana bar when on the jukebox the song came on. I'm in my 60's, so I turn to the kids who played the song and I asked, "Who is this?. They explained Soda Stereo to me and they told me their favorite songs by them. I really have to say, I think Gustavo was an absolute musical genius and passed way too soon. My favorite song now by them is Hombre Al Agua, a must listen to song of Soda Stereo...hopefully you can analyze that one in the future.
Gracias por el comentario. De parte de un argentino de 50 años que hace 30 vive en Brasil. Se extraña la casa de cada uno y sus ídolos y también se aprende de otras culturas. Por eso te agradezco. Gustavo y Soda fueron muy influyentes en mi juventud y en mis gustos musicales
😭Se te extraña Gustavo! Escuchar esta canción te emociona hasta lo más profundo de tu ser!
Bueno, el contexto era que se despedían de su público, despues de haber demostrado por años que Soda fue uno de los picos más altos del rock de América. Marcó un antes y un despues, por eso esa comunicación tan especial entre ellos y su público. La verdad se extraña esta magia, estos encuentros, porque cuando salías de un show de Soda o de Redondos, o Las Pelotas, siempre hay una atmósfera hermana, amiga que te da o te hace sentir seguro. Me alegra saber que lo disfrutaras y que te agradó. Toda mi admiración.
Exacto, no sé si ella al momento de hacer este video estuvo al tanto del contexto del momento que estaba viviendo la banda, la despedida el último concierto en Argentina, su país. La magia que envuelve a Cerati y a Soda en general.
gracias por no usa la palabra “latino” y generalizar a los 33 países en 1 palabea
One of the best Argentinean rock/pop bands ever. Gustavo a true master carismatic muscician. RIP Gustavo, we love you.
BUENA BANDA DE POP NO DE ROCK
@@eduardoparedes3767 Coincido ... POP por POPULAR ... 👍👍🇦🇷
There's a particularly symbiotic relationship between artists and crowd in Argentina. They feed off of each others energy and enthusiasm which usually results in concerts that are beyond everyone's imagination. You can hear it from almost every artist that plays here, most of them say "I've never seen something like it anywhere else".
Maradona or Messi with a home crowd? It's more than mutual appreciation - it's unity.
Sin dudas somos un publico increíble, nuestra pasion como crowd creo q es inigualable
Thank you so much for choosing this band and this song to analize. They were one of the best Argentinian bands of all times. We miss his beautiful voice so much but he definitely lives in our hearts. Greetings from Argentina!
The irony behind this song is that the lyrics are about someone who aims to write a legendary song, a song that is regarded as light, and loved by people, and regarded as a classic. It was inspired by certain tracks of this kind Cerati used to listen. The song is described as a woman in the lyrics. This is what wikipedia says:
"In the first two verses, Cerati sings "ella durmió al calor de las masas, y yo desperté queriendo soñarla" (she slept to the heat of the masses, and I woke up wanting to dream about her). The expression is both beautiful and complex: it expresses a clash of states that are worlds apart (sleep and wakefulness), but also the desire to dream of that which has awakened him, to be reunited with her in his own dream. It also expresses her unconsciousness, lulled by the effect of the masses, faced with his lucidity, he cannot help waking up and seeing things as they really are.
Then he sings "algún tiempo atrás pensé en escribirle" (some time ago I thought about writing to her) but mysteriously informs us that he could not overcome "las trampas del amor" (the traps of love). The lyrics then conclude telling everyone that he will not send "cenizas de rosas" (ashes of roses), and "ni pienso evitar un roce secreto" (nor he will avoid a secret touch), confirming the duality that awakens "aquel amor de música ligera" (that easy-listening-music love)."
De Música Ligera in itself ended up becoming exactly that. This catchy, fresh, light legendary classic.
Interesting analysis... In my not qualified opinion, the lyrics plays with the duality of the song you mentioned and a "summer love" as referred in Argentinean Spanish, a "light music love" (a love that flourish during a summer holiday and then just fade in time, coming back as just a distant memory randomly remembered years down the road)... That is "nada nos libra" (but) "nada más queda"... we all had it, and we all have lost it....
@@guillermopelaez5859 That’s an interesting perspective too! I hadn’t noticed that!
Great comment but it is not "irony", it's foreshadowing.
Personally, I see it as a emotional hangover.
"She slept , warmed by the masses
And I woke up, wanting to dream her"
The protagonist realizes that she was better in dreams that in reality.
"Some time ago, I thought about writing to her,
That I never evaded the traps of love"
Now I believe he regrets falling for the trap, which he finally did in spite of thinking once he never would.
"From that smooth music love,
Nothing frees us,
Nothing else remains"
It depicts some sort of torment: He can't forget the moment but can't help accepting it is gone.
"I won't send her ashes of roses,
Nor avoid a secret touch"
He insists: Doesn't make sense to grieve the loss of love or to blame it on her, but he will console himself with (what it seems) a jerkoff.
Then the chorus again.
This song cries of hurt in spite of sounding like a cheerful anthem
Wow man.. Thanks so much for explaining that. It is very hard to really understand the lyrics that well. Specially since Spanish is my second language. Thanks again
It's hard to overstate how popular Soda Stereo was and is in Latin America. I got introduced to them by my now wife because she brought back their first three albums from Chile after she spent a year there as an exchange student in the 80s. They were really good!
Esta música teve duas versões no Brasil, com Paralamas do Sucesso e Capital Inicial. Fantástica banda Argentina, Soda Stereo! E o público Argentino é simplesmente o mais incrível!!

Como paraguayo me enorgullezco de ésta legendaria banda Sudamericana!. Los inmortales Soda Stereo y Gustavo Cerati!.
Tiene que analizar "Prófugos" en vivo en River. Es bestial todo lo que hace, tanto vocal como técnicamente.
Tampoco es que es fiesta la cosa xd
seee.. opino igual!... es verdad que es una balada super tranqui... pero la flaca analiza, sin importar el estilo.. y para eso, Profugos es un excelente ejemplo, además de innegable La ciudad de la furia..
Párrafo aparte, que todo lo que "Latinoamérica" incluye, haya elegido Soda.. todo un orgullo... y que triste que esta bestia ya no esté mas entre nosotros :/
Concuerdo!
Cerati tenia una voz indescriptible ❤❤❤
Maybe the best vocal performance out of Gustavo You should react to it Eli!!
Absolutely loved the analysis. I’ve seen/heard this entire concert 100s of times and you’ve pointed out things I never considered.
As others mentioned, this particular performance you reacted to happens to be the very last song of their very “last” concert of their break up tour. They were saying goodbye. At the end he basically gives a speech of gratitude for the 14 yrs of love and support & finishes of with the immortal words “Gracias Totales!”.
This song, un ironically is their most commercial song. The lyrics allude to the state of the rock/music industry & how commercialized it had become.
Cerati was an incredible composer/guitarist/frontman/performer/singer. He was truly the whole package. Please continue with more Soda Stereo!! There are much better songs than this one.
Y los sonidos de sus guitarras eran muy elaborados. Realmente tenía muchas horas invertidas con distintos pedales, logrando reproducir las ideas que tenía en su cabeza. También es cierto...que la banda superaba en sus shows, sus propias grabaciones de estudio. Algo bastante loco.
My “tocayo” ( someone named equal as oneself) is undoubtedly some of the best guitarist ever lived …. Leveling Prince and better than Most
He was not only a great guitar player but also an expert in audio processing. That's the reason you hear a great guitar sound.
Wuau!! Amazing review!! I loved your face listening for the first time Soda Stereo. I would like to see mine 33 years ago when I hear this song for the first time... I think I cried today!! Thanks for this great video. :)

"Rock en Español" is an entire genre in and of itself with amazing singers. Definitely Soda Stereo is one of its greatest proponents, going far beyond their country of Argentina. I'm from Panamá and almost everyone here knows them.
The best band in rock en español
THE BEST BAND THE POP NO ROCK
He in the solo use the B second string as a pedal note, delay and chorus. He was such creative guitarrist with their sound in every aspect.This solo seems to be easy but actually making the pedal note at the right times is quite arduous. He was also one of the most virtuoso guitarists in Argentina, not in the way he played fast, but the musical taste, rhythm, and the complicated phrases he played while singing.
Exacto
In studio version, he used a rotary speaker or "leslie". Live version probably was a version of a chorus from his Roland GP8 or a leslie emulation from his Eventide H3000.
I believe she's hearing the keyboard harmonization... The guitar sound is pretty straight forward...
@@alejandrorigonatto694 nope, the keyboard is keeping the main chords.
Here from Argentina, a Soda Stereo fan, thanks for this! ❤ Sending love
OMG. Im so excited for this! Groundbreaking band, incredible singer.
Love the choice to react to Soda Stereo! I am not from Latin America, but much of my childhood was spent living there. I was in high school in Chile in the mid-to-late 80s, and Soda Stereo was everywhere! I’ve been a fan ever since! Please do more of their songs!
Hi Elizabeth, I was looking for someone who had explained to you the guitar sound but I did not see anyone. Gustavo was very much into ethereal and clean sounds, delays, choruses, flangers, reverbs and he would mix his sound to give the song an identity sort of speak. Every song they had, had a different guitar sound that would immediately give away the song. Not only he was skilled in his taste for sounds, he also was a guitar extraordinaire. Their dynamics and textures like you said were amazing for a trio, they not only did it well, they had so much fun with it it was contagious. I hope this small contribution can help. I recommend you to do "Profugos". Amazing delay work.
Rip Ceratti un ídolo del rock latinoamericano (latin-american rock idol).
Last words of the concert that still we all remember:
"No sólo no hubiéramos sido nada sin ustedes, sino con toda la gente que estuvo a nuestro alrededor desde el comienzo. Algunos siguen hasta hoy… ¡Gracias totales!"
Thanking the people at the concert and all the followers who supported them from the beginning, those last 2 words: "Gracias totales" were epic, considering he said something like "Totally thank you" instead of "Muchas gracias" ("Thank you very much" ). The way he said it, with the pause after "Gracias..." and before "...totales" was immortalized in our hearts.
Great driving music! Another 'new' band to me. It's a shame more of this isn't available around the world. Too many of we Americans miss out on great bands/music/artists- usually to not looking for it. This is a good example of what else is out there. Loved it.
"por ahí" ninguno " por ahí" ,en Argentina
This song from Soad Stereo is a Rock Anthem in all of Latin America. Growing up in Mexico I remember we would lose it every time it was played, and later as a teen in the 90's even more. Now in my 40's its even better. Greetings from Australia
30 something y/o here, but I got into rock because of my dad and he would play me everything he grew up with in the 70's and 80's and when he would blast this on our way to school at 6AM my sisters and I would just be so happy singing at the top of our lungs. I think Soda Stereo like many of the bands that came up with it have an uncanny hook to reach a wide range that transcends time. Truly they use to make honest timeless music. Shame they are no longer together. Also greetings from Puerto Rico.
At the end of the song he said: "Not only would we have been nothing without you, but with all the people who were around us from the beginning, some of them, continue to this day. TOTAL THANKS". and that was their farewell show (as a studio band).
Hi from Venezuela 🇻🇪. This song is amazing, I was 13 in 1991. Argentina is a great country. Respect for spanish rock
"Soda Stereo is a rock band from Argentina, not from Brazil. Perhaps, along with "Los Redondos," they are the most representative band of Argentine national rock and Spanish-language rock."
A lot of prep work on this one.
I just caught this and was able to cut my mistake out of the intro. I feel so bad! Not sure where it got confused in my head... maybe because I was listening to Shaman just before? I'm thankful for being notified of the error so that I could correct it.
Soda Stereo son de Argentina pero se hicieron tan grandes que llenaban estadios desde México hasta Chile. En el último tiempo, quizás por las redes sociales y TH-cam, el público europeo la ha estado descubriendo. Hasta en medios de comunicación ingleses han publicado notas sobre ellos. También artistas como Coldplay han reconocido sus preferencias (Chris Martin se tatuó una frase de Gustavo Cerati) sobre la banda de rock porteña (de Buenos Aires).

Gustavo has been called an architect of sound by a lot of his older peers, and I feel like that’s SUCH a correct description for him and his sound. Him and Soda absolutely never disappoint!
As they've mentioned to you, Soda Stereo is a rock band from Argentina. The image you provide in the thumbnail is from "El Ultimo Concierto" from 1997. I urge you to review songs from the tour " Me verás volver" from 2007. There are countless gems in it.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA, I HOLD MY BREATH ON THE FIRST PAUSE U DID CAUSE ITS BEFORE THE DROP.
thank u for giving this gem and MONSTER of a band the love it deserves. theyre the rockstars of our country ♥
lots of love from freaking argentina
Jajajaja yo igual!! y lo hizo 2 veces!! Ya quería que escuchara el inicio para ver su reacción
@@giovannimurillonunez4358 wanna make out?
Me too it gave me anxiety I was ready to sing so loud!! But she kept stopping it right before lol
Great reaction! His "Prófugos" live version is a must! Cheers from Argentina!
To me this is the best band that ever lived. In Spanish, English, any language. If you listen to the album "Signos" for example, every single song is a hit. That is almost impossible to achieve.
Soda Stereo's legacy throughout Latin America is undeniably massive. I started playing in a cover band here in México and probably 75% of all our covers were from Soda Stereo. Legends among legends. Greetings to my fellow Latin American brothers and sisters, especially back in Argentina, and greetings to our Opera Queen!
Soda fue precursora e incomparable. La banda se formó en 1982 y esta canción se publicó en 1990. Fueron, son y serán siempre una leyenda!
No fue precursora, fue única, ninguna otra logro, creo, ninla mitad de lo que logró soda… y no soy argentino eh
Los redondos?
@@thekosmicbard maravillosos, únicos y precursores también, en otro sentido.
No hay lugar aún donde no se cante a coro con toda su fuerza y belleza.
No se dice leyenda se dice Lecheeenda! chencillito che por favor jjajaj
Soda Stereo marcó mi adolescencia, todas sus canciones son buenas, fue el grupo más exitoso en idioma español.
Thanks for this video, I wish you'd had more context to this song in this concert, it was the band's thanks and farewell before splitting as a homage to their fans, this was meant to be their last live performance. And the song is a classic anthem.
As Latin artists go you'd have a good time listening to Shakira, I'd encourage you to check out her earlier work Ojos así (song) has some great vocals but all through Pies descalzos and Dónde están los ladrones (both early albums) you'll find awesome vocalising. Thanks for your great work 🙏🏼
Traten muy bien a nuestra Princesa del Metal, ella tiene muy buen gusto y adora las guitarras. Haganle buenas recomendaciones❤💐
Próximo massacre o arde la sangre ajajaj
@@Revolution-at naa
@@Revolution-at Mondello es tremendo. Tanto amor me parece un primer tema perfecto para analizar.
I love how she amazed she is not only at Soda, but also at the crowd!
Soda Stereo was huge here in Argentina, and Gustavo left a legacy behind we all treasure.
It was HUGE here in Mexico, gracias por tanto Gustavo!!! tuve la fortuna de verlos volver en Monterrey 2007
Elizabeth, you should analize the song "Corazón Delator" live, he sang in an Opera house in Buenos Aires as part of his "11 Episodios Sinfónicos" (11 Symphonic Episodes) album with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. I think you would find that performance particularly amusing.
The biggest legend of rock in Spanish of all time. By far. No doubt. Just a genius out of this world. No one has ever even been close to his perfection, no matter what they say. Really
How can a 43-year-old Brazilian like myself not know this Argentinian band and song? I mean, I know the Brazilain version 'A Sua Maneira', but... this is awesome!
Sencillo, Brasil se encierra en su música , que no está mal pero en cuanto al Rock, creo que Argentina ocupa un lugar ineludible en el repertorio universal. Si después no te gusta es otro asunto
Welcome!!! Soda was amazing
Você ainda perdeu o cover que os Paralamas do Sucesso fizeram em 1999, se não me engano, no álbum 9 luas. De música ligeira, bem mais fiel ao original. Longa vida a Soda Stereo y a nuestros hermanos!
Igual como lograron hacer que se conozca a Soda Stereo en Brasil? Aparte de Os Paralamas y Capital Inicial
I am from Costa Rica. Soda Stereo, they were more than musicians they were music GODS! Every now and then one of their songs catches me off guard somewhere and I get goosebumps every time.
What makes this video somehow emotive is the fact that the song is the last from a big concert that last more than 2 hours, and the album in which this tracks comes in is called "El Último Concierto" which translates as "The Last Concert". It was a way of saying there will be no more Soda Stereo anymore :'( That last speech from Gustavo Cerati says something like: "Not only would we have been nothing without you, but with all the people who were around us from the beginning. Some of you continue to this day! Thank you... total!" (I don't know how to translate that very last expression, but it is now a very famous phrase which people uses to remember Cerati: "Gracias... totales!")
gracias totales no tiene el mismo efecto que tiene en español cuando se traduce al inglés. en inglés, sería "my total....thanks"
Totales is just plural for total… which doesn’t make a lot of sense unless you say in totality … Spanish is weird and difficult sometimes for no reason 😂
@Mike swell🎼⚒️ the word gracias is also plural... you know, like the word "thanks" in english? e.g. "many thanks"
Imo the best translation for Totales in that context would be wholeheartedly.
Thank you for absolutely everything
🖐from Texas. I enjoy your reactions very much. I was a teeneger when this song came out in México. This song along with " EN LA CIUDAD DE LA FURIA" ARE EMBLEMATIC OF SPANISH ROCK ALL OVER LATIN AMÉRICA. It made me cry when l found out that he spent about 4 years in a coma before his family decided to finally let him go
My Spanish tutor (from Argentina) recommended soda stereo to me.
And ive been absolutely hooked
Saludos de Isle of Man 🇮🇲
💙🤍💙
No lo puedo creer!!!!! Gracias por animarte al español. I cannot believe it! Thanks for daring into spanish language! Music = Música.
As a Latina myself from south america this is an iconic song for us. Actually, Cold Play loves to play this song when he goes to Argentina. There is a video where he talks about the first time he played this song for Argentinians and it was a great experience for him. Also from Argentina listed to Enanitos Verdes and Mujer Amante de Rata Blanca also from Argentina.
Un genio que se nos fue temprano, gracias totales
Wow thanks a lot Elizabeth!! It's an honour for us, Argentinian people, that you're reacting and saying so many flattery things to one of our most preciated national bands. Gustavo was a truly national treasure, he sadly fell into a coma in 2010 and passed away in 2014... we will always miss him.
His voice and lyrics were unique.
I miss him so much ❤
I'm just thankful that even though I started listening to Gustavo and Soda Stereo after they broke up, I was still able to see him perform live quite a few times during his solo career, including Soda Stereo's reunion tour.
estoy llorando en este momento..escucharlos y sentir esa nostalgia mezclada con el dolor de su ausencia
tenemos un doble duelo como argentinos: Soda y Gustavo
Un Maestro de la música, como tanto otros de Argentina!!! Besos de Chile..! soy un admirador de los músicos y música de mis vecinos Argentinos..!!
Yo soy de Argentina, fanática de Soda Stereo vi esto,y vi como reaccionas y la verdad la multitud que manejamos los argentinos en un concierto es impresionante como se conectan con la banda,y el tono de voz de Gustavo es impresionante, Gustavo es eterno por siempre
There's tons of other good songs from them! My favorite definitely is Corazón Delator. I hope you make more videos about them! Hugs from Santa Fe! 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Edit: at the beginning he tells his audience "I have a good song to sing". And at the end he thanks the people that had been and were around them, from which, comes a very iconic phrase: "Gracias totales" (total thanks).
Yes, the song "Corazón Delator" is waaaay better than this one in every aspect.
"Corazón Delator" (Telltale Heart) is a masterpice. One of the best songs ever written. Period!
@@Leprosita80 I hope she does a second video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@michalperach984 Mica 😘
@@Leprosita80 jj aqui estoy 😆
Saludos 🌷
Una lastima que elejiò este tema pero bueno... algo es algo
Massive goosebumps. Every. Single. Time. Gracias por tanto, Soda. Gracias por todo, Gustavo.
One of my wife's favourite bands. Pure poetry, Cerati in particular is an amazing songwriter. I recommend 'Amor Amarillo'. ❤
Enorme emoción al ver a Gustavo ahí de nuevo. Ahí lo tengo en mi recuerdo. Cómo el genio que sigue siendo. Su música y su legado vivirá en mi corazón para siempre. Gracias por hacer este video.
Soda Stereo,....si no es la mejor es una de las 5 mejores bandas de rock en español!
Muchos latinos opinan de la misma manera.
Saludos cordiales desde la ciudad de México.
Está dentro de las mejores, sin duda. Para mí, Los Jaivas puede ser la mejor de todas (considerando que cumplen 60 EN ACTIVO), pero Soda, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Los Prisioneros, y muchas otras son simplemente geniales, que el top 5 queda chico realmente!
Eng: It's one of the best bands, no doubt. For me, Los Jaivas can be the best of all (considering they have 60 years RUNNING as a band), but Soda, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Los Prisioneros and so many others are just great, that the top 5 is so crowded really!
And for Elizabeth, if you want to discover Los Jaivas, they have a masterpiece called La Poderosa Muerte (The Powerful Death), a song that span for more than 11 minutes, and that was filmed on top of Macchu Pichu, the greatest piece of Inca ruins in Peru
Es la mejor, ni siquiera es debatible. Es la única banda de rock Latinoamericana (España y Portugal incluidos) en el Salón De La Fama.
Es la mejor!!!!!!
Definitivamente la mejor banda argentina!!!🇦🇷
@@SrNov-wv1pd Es muy debatible, porque no por estar en un Salón de la Fama eres objetivamente la mejor. Puedes ser solamente la más conocida, pero eso no te hace ser mejor, debido a que la música es muy subjetiva y dependiente de lo que le provoca a personas individuales
Gustavo was not only a genuine singer but a guitar legend. His legacy will remain for generations of musicians here in Argentina
I was in the audience that night That was the last song of their final concert before they split up, that is why the crowd was so excited, greetings from Argentina!
se me salió una lagrima, Grande Gustavo Cerati y viva siempre Soda Stereo
Soda stereo delivered magic everytime they played. The voice of Gustavo was amazing, tender, strong. A force of nature.
Hola Elizabeth soy de Colombia y Soda Estereo es de las bandas más icónicas de Rock en América Latina, nos sabemos y cantamos muchas de sus canciones porque las recordamos desde que éramos unos niños .... SALUDOS DESDE COLOMBIA !!
Hace unos años, para un Feria de Cali, el Grupo Niche estaba atrasado, entonces para distraer a la gente pusieron canciones populares. Cuando pusieron esta cancion, le juro eran más de 40 mil bocas cantandola a todo pulmón.
@@cavaridrodid0924Que buena anecdota amigo. Un gran saludo
There is no doubt... Music is more than music, is an Universal Language, and everyone can speak it.
De aquel amoooor! De musica ligera, nada nos libra, nada más queda...
Desde México saludos.
What an Iconic Band, RIP Gustavo Cerati.
"De Aquel Amor", y no "Ya que el Amor". Saludos desde Argentina
I was there. September 20th 1997. Buenos Aires, Argentina. Gracias... Totales!!!
Gustavo is probably the coolest human being to ever live on earth. A true master of sound. Miss you Gus!
That band is legendary, I rememeber covering this song with my first band, really good times! Cheers from Colombia!
Thank you so much for your reaction Elizabeth!. Soda Stereo is one of the most beloved bands in Latin America, specially in Argentina, where they are from. Greetings 🙋❤️from an Argentinian 🇦🇷💙🤍💙living in Los Ángeles 🇺🇲.
Lived in Peru in the mid-1980s during Soda’s meteoric rise. Gustavo Cerati- RIP- a genius who inspired countless musicians. Deserved a larger stage- thank you for doing this. Ella uso mi cabeza como un revolver is my personal fave
Sin dudas la banda más grande de Argentina y el mejor músico del país Gustavo Cerati. Gracias por esta alegría
Te quedaste corto, diría de Latinoamérica y lo digo sin ser argentino.
La más grande de Latinoamérica. La más grande banda argentina en cuanto a masividad, los redondos. En cuanto a Música rock, Serú Giran. Spinetta, etc. Soda es una enorme banda de rock Argentina. Lo encriptado de Spinetta y el Indio, por ejemplo, en sus letras y su complejidad no lo hace popular fuera de argentina, soda tiene letras más simples, más popera si queres.
Por lejos la mejor banda de latino América . Grande Soda ! Un inmortal. Un genio. Desde Chile!
Es raro lo que voy a decir, pero creo que es así.
La banda más grande de América Latina es Soda Stereo, pero la banda más grande de Argentina son Los Redondos.
Es decir, para Latinoamérica la banda que a más gente le llegó es Soda, pero en Argentina la banda que a más gente le llegó son Los Redondos.
Yo adoro a ambas.
