💎 A new beginning. A new era 💎

Music has always been my confort and strength during hard times. Still is.

Writing "City Pop Diamonds" was about going back, not only in the music but in my mental space too, to a time when a was a kid and telling that 5-10 year old me: Don't worry, you're strong and it's gonna be OK. I can't stand bullies of any kind, type or age. Seeing it still happening as an adult between grown up people is even more disheartening.

We all have a responsability to shine a light, to fight against all forms of bullying and to protect all those who suffer. "Bad people" can be louder sometimes - but we are more and we are definitely stronger.

I'm working now on a new project. I want it to be the soundtrack for the happiest post-pandemic times we have ahead of us. And I want all the songs to reflect that and to "shine a light" on a specific subject each one of them.

This song is the first "diamond" of more to come. Hope you enjoy it.

Take care and take care of others.

Peace + love,
Luis

💎 Un nuevo comienzo. Una nueva era 💎

La música siempre ha sido fuerza y refugio en momentos difíciles. Aún lo es.

Escribir "City Pop Diamonds" se trataba de volver atrás, no solo en el aspecto musical, sino también en el mental, a la época en que era un niño para decirle a mi yo de 5-10 años: No te preocupes, eres fuerte y todo va a estar bien. No puedo soportar a los abusadores de ninguna clase, tipo o edad. Ver que sigue pasando como adulto entre gente ya crecida es incluso más descorazonador.

Todas las personas tenemos la responsabilidad de hacer brillar una luz, para luchar contra todas las formas de abuso y para proteger a las personas que sufren. La "gente mala" puede que sea más ruidosa algunas veces - pero nosotros somos más y, definitivamente, somos más fuertes.

Estoy ya trabajando en un nuevo proyecto. Quiero que sea la banda sonora para los tiempos más felices post-pandemia, que tenemos por delante. Y quiero que eso se vea reflejado en todas las canciones y "poner luz" en un asunto en concreto con cada una de ellas.

Esta canción es el primer "diamante" de más por venir. Espero que te guste.

Cuídate y cuida de los demás.

Paz + amor,
Luis

Lyrics:
City pop
City pop, city pop

You know they're throwing hate
Stones to pave our way

And we're giving city pop diamonds
Coming down across the sky
And we're dreaming city pop diamonds
Shining bright to love tonight

City pop
City pop, city pop
Coming down to

We will be born again
No bones to break today

And we're giving city pop diamonds
Coming down across the sky
And we're dreaming city pop diamonds
Shining bright to love tonight

Yes we're giving city pop diamonds
Coming down across the sky
And we're dreaming city pop diamonds
Shining bright to love tonight

City pop
City pop
City pop, city pop
City pop
City pop, city pop

And we're giving city pop diamonds
Coming down across the sky
And we're dreaming city pop diamonds
Shining bright to love tonight

City pop
City pop, city pop
City pop
City pop, city pop

And we're giving city pop diamonds
Coming down across the sky
And we're dreaming city pop diamonds
Shining bright to love tonight

City pop
City pop, city pop
Mmmm, mmmm
Mmmm
