Los Prisioneros Tren Al Sur meaning and English Lyrics translated
Los Prisioneros is a Chilean band, one of the most important in their country and Latin America. They were formed in the 80s, and their music style encompassed new wave, pop, and rock.
"Tren al sur " - "Train to the South" is a song about the train journey of Jorge González, the band's singer, heading south in the country. During the journey, he recalls moments from his childhood and life in general, hoping to return to his homeland. This song exudes feelings of reunion with the past and evokes a melancholic touch, primarily due to its musical foundation. The accompanying video contributed to its success at the Latin American level, and to this day, it still stirs up the same emotions in those who grew up during that era.
However, the band didn't solely achieve fame with this song. They stood out mainly because they built their career and achieved success during a challenging time in their country, marked by the dictatorial repression of Pinochet. They often sought to criticize and protest against this repression in their songs, which eventually led to their censorship in the media.
For those aspiring to learn Spanish, "Tren al Sur" has a brilliant advantage as it helps connect its lyrics with familiar and universal emotions such as hope, longing, and melancholy, fostering a better understanding of the language. It is a beautiful song with lyrics that can be analyzed or simply felt , thanks to its beautiful melodies, while refining the learning of the Spanish language.
