Bonito y sabroso

The two most important doors that opened to Cuba and gave way to the projection of Cuban music worldwide were the United States and Mexico. In the mid-20th century, Mexico had such a powerful film industry that it competed with Hollywood on the continent.

In that country, the musical movement was also something out of the ordinary and for that reason many Cuban musicians moved to Mexico, especially to the Yucatan area, which is geographically very close to the island.

One of the musical genres that had a great impact, not only in Mexico, but in all the places where it arrived, was the mambo, a rhythm that had two of its most outstanding interpreters living in Mexico, such as Dámaso Pérez Prado and Benny Moré.

The latter achieved his artistic success in that country and it was only after he became famous that he managed to captivate the inhabitants of his native land. His first hit, recorded in Cuba, was precisely this song, in which he exalts the identification of Mexicans (or perhaps I should say Mexican women) with the mambo, and in it he affirms that "Mexico and Havana are two cities that are like sisters". But the success of this song was not limited only to those two countries, but became part of the classic repertoire of Cuban music, of Latin music, and as such, it forms the basis of all that we now call "salsa".

This, my version, is my contribution to Hive Open Mic, week 150.

Las dos puertas más importantes que se le abrieron a Cuba y que dieron paso a la proyección a la música de ese país, a nivel mundial, fueron Estados Unidos y México. Este segundo país, tenía a mediados del siglo XX una industria cinematográfica tan poderosa que competía, a nivel del continente, con Hollywood.

En ese país, la movida musical también era algo fuera de lo común y por esa razón muchos músicos cubanos, se trasladaban a México, especialmente a la zona de Yucatán, la cual está geográficamente muy cerca de la isla.

Uno de los géneros musicales que tuvo gran impacto, no solo en México, sino en todos los sitios donde llegaba, fue el mambo, ritmo que tuvo a dos de sus más destacados intérpretes, viviendo en tierras mexicanas, como lo fueron Dámaso Pérez Prado y Benny Moré.

Este último logró su éxito artístico en ese país y solo después de ser famoso, es que logra cautivar a los habitantes de su tierra natal. Su primer éxito, grabado en Cuba, fue precisamente esta canción, en la que exalta la identificación de los mexicanos (o quizá debería decir las mexicanas) con el mambo, y en ella afirma que "México y La Habana son dos ciudades que son como hermanas". Pero el éxito de esta canción no se limitó solo a esos dos países, sino que pasó a formar parte del repertorio clásico de la música cubana, de la música latina, y como tal, conforma la base de todo eso que ahora llamamos "salsa".

Esta, mi versión, es mi aporte al Hive Open Mic, semana 150.

Lyrics || Letra

Pero qué bonito y sabroso
Bailan el mambo las mexicanas
Mueven la cintura y los hombros
Igualito que los cubanas

Con un sentido del ritmo
Para bailar y gozar
Que hasta parece que estoy en La Habana
Cuando bailando veo una mexicana
No hay que olvidar que México y La Habana
Son dos ciudades que son como hermanas
Para reír y cantar

Pero qué bonito y sabroso
Bailan el mambo las mexicanas
Mueven la cintura y los hombros
Igualito que las cubanas

* Mueven la cintura y los hombros
