about

These 4 tunes are the very first songs composed and/or arranged by Alex Alvear, back in 1994, way before the name Mango Blue and the band became active. These songs were recorded as part of a production titled Cuyabeno by the band Tinku which featured some of Alvear's compositions, including these 4 tunes. Mango Blue in the making!! Hope you enjoy these very early attempts.

Spanish. English translation below

YA NADIE SABE LO QUE PASA
TANTA LOCURA A DONDE IRA A PARAR?
PA’LLA SE MATAN ENTRE HERMANOS
PA’CA POR DIFERENCIAS DE COLOR
NO PUEDE SER QUE NO APRENDAMOS
DEL PASADO Y DE SUS ENSE~ANZAS

GUERRA Y POLUCION
ENVENENAN NUESTRO PLANETA
VIOLENCIA Y MALDAD EL ORDEN DEL DIA SON
LO QUE NO LOGRO EXPLICARME
ES PORQUE LA HUMANIDAD
HECHA UN PASO PA’LANTE Y DOS PA’TRAS?
ESTA SITUACION
NO SE ARREGLA SI NO HAY CONCIENCIA
LA REVOLUCION
DEBE SER EN EL CORAZON
Y YO TE CANTO MI RUMBA
DE ESPERANZA Y DE REALIDAD
PA’ QUE BAILES PENSANDO EN QUE VENDRA

Coro I

BAILALA AHORA
PORQUE LA VIDA NO ESPERA

Coro II

NOBODY KNOWS WHAT'S HAPPENING ANYMORE
SO MUCH MADNESS, WHERE WILL IT LEAD?
OUR AMBITION KEEPS BITING THE HAND THAT FEEDS US
OVER THERE BROTHERS ARE KILLING EACH OTHER
OVER HERE BECAUSE OF COLOR DIFFERENCES
IT'S A SHAME WE CAN'T LEARN FROM THE PAST AND ITS LESSONS
WAR AND POLLUTION POISON OUR PLANET
VIOLENCE AND EVIL, THEY HAPPEN EVERY DAY
I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY HUMANITY
TAKES ONE STEP FORWARD AND TWO BACKWARDS
THIS SITUATION WILL NOT BE FIXED UNLESS THERE'S AWARENESS
THE REVOLUTION MUST TAKE PLACE IN THE HEART
AND NOW I SING YOU A RUMBA
TO THINK OF WHAT COMES AHEAD
