...is Sya by Ana Alcaide, from her new album Ritual.

When a son asks his father which is the best religion of all, his father replies that none: all religions have always divided man, creating wars, provoking blood and separation. "My son, listen to your mind and look for friendship, which is the best religion of all!"
Cuando un hijo que le pregunta a su padre cuál es la mejor religión de todas, este le responde que ninguna: todas las religiones han dividido siempre al hombre, creando guerras, provocando sangre y separación. "Hijo mío, recurre a la razón y busca la amistad, que es la mejor religión de todas!"

La canción de la semana #791

Upon reading that Rammstein plan to cover Entre dos Tierras, the 1990 hit of Héroes del Silencio, I realised that I have no songs by the latter band on this blog, an oversight to be corrected. Right now.

La canción de la semana #790

...is Los Glaciares by Paris-based El Búho (Robin Perkins), from his 2021 album Natura Sonora. El Búho says:

Los Glaciares is a national park found in Argentina at the southern tip of the Andes mountains where three glaciers meet. It is a land of blues and white, of snow-capped mountains and glacial lakes. This track was built around the sound of avalanches and rockfall from the melting glacier and features a collaboration with Argentine musicians Manu Quintans (flutes) and Fede Estevez (percussion).
