Daniel Diges, the sexier Spanish version of Leo Sayer, is back with a new single “Te llevas mi amor”, the lead track from his third studio album, Quiero.
The ballad discusses love, temperance and eternity. A quick translation of the lyrics show that Diges is singing about tortured emotion. Although you’d never guess that from the video, which is charged with physicality. Diges and his lover don’t seem the least bit conflicted as they enjoy long walks in the sunshine and have fun in the bedroom. All the time, Daniel offers us tantalising glimpses of his oh-so-toned arms, but he’s nothing but a tease – his top never goes above his mop of curls (sob).
And back to the song – whilst the melody isn’t very memorable, the lyrics do touch the heart. “Te llevas mi amor” is definitely a departure in musical style from the nonsensical wackiness of “Algo Pequeñito“, his Spanish Eurovision entry from 2010. That rapidly became a euro-fan favourite and has been covered by many artists, including Anne Marie David recently at the London Eurovision Party. It’s clear that Diges is not a one trick pony (also check out his cover of “Eres Tú”). As well as mastering several musical genres, Diges is an accomplished pianist, actor, and a composer. A multi-talented hunk. His lady-friend in the video is very lucky indeed.
Score: 3/5
“TE LLEVAS MI AMOR” LYRICS
Son de las pocas palabras
que quedan grabadas a fuego en la piel
Y a pesar de que vuelvo a sentirte algo más
No las puedes creer
Somos la llave de entrada
el cuento que acaba desierto en papel
Engañandole un poco al destino tal vez
Pero tarde o temprano se ve
Solo te quiero confesar
que nunca quise perderte
y por suerte no ha sido un error
Y aunque me duela despertar
y no sentirte por siempre
te llevas mi amor.
Somos templanza y espada
desidia esperada cada cual con su hacer
Somos dos escenarios distinto cartel
Y ya no es suficiente querer
Solo te quiero confesar
que nunca quise perderte
y por suerte no ha sido un error
Y aunque me duela despertar
y no sentirte por siempre
te llevas mi amor.
Qué bonito fue vivir
Qué bonito fue sentir
Tómame y…..
Solo te quiero confesar
que nunca quise perderte
y por suerte no ha sido un error
Y aunque me duela despertar
y no sentirte por siempre
te llevas mi amor.
English Translation
They are the few words
who become burned into the skin
And even though I again feel more
Do not you believe
We are the key input
the story just desert paper
Deceiving a bit maybe fate
But sooner or later is
Only I want to confess
I never wanted to miss
and luckily it was not a mistake
And though it pains me to wake
and not be forever
you take my love.
We are temperance and sword
negligence expected each with its do
We are two different scenarios poster
And love is not enough
Only I want to confess
I never wanted to miss
and luckily it was not a mistake
And though it pains me to wake
and not be forever
you take my love.
How nice it was to live
How nice it was to feel
Take me and …..
Only I want to confess
I never wanted to miss
and luckily it was not a mistake
And though it pains me to wake
and not be forever
you take my love.
