I've fallen absolutely in love with the song "Malaguena Salerosa" by Chingon, which is the song played at the end credits of Kill Bill 2... it's so passionate! I love passionate songs.

I ended up watching "Chingu" (Korean for 'friend') on DVD today... the usual tearjerker Korean drama/movie. The girl in it was pretty cute.

Sometimes I want to go back to Korea just because of the cute girls. Sigh!

Lyrics for "Malaguena Salerosa:"

Que bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Que bonitos ojos tienes

Ellos me quieren mirar
Pero si tú no los dejas
Pero si tú no los dejas
Ni siquiera parpadear

Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera
Malagueña salerosa
Y decirte niña hermosa
Que eres linda y hechicera

Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo te concedo razón
Yo te concedo razón
Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazón
Te ofrezco mi corazón
A cambio de mi pobreza

Malagueña salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus
Labios quisiera
Y decirte niña hermosa

Que eres linda y hechicera
Que eres linda y hechicera
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa
Y decirte niña hermosa


Translation:
what nice eyes you have
beneath those two eyebrows

they want to look at me
but you won't allow them
not even to blink

charming malaguena (malaga is a province in spain)
i would like to kiss your lips
and i say to you, beautiful girl
how beautiful and bewitched you are

if you despire me because i'm poor
i admit it
i dont' offer any treasures
i offer you my heart
for the price of my poverty

how beautiful and bewitched you are
like the innocence of the rose

I love songs with passion too. I\'ve met robert rodriguez too, and i love that song also. Another passionate song like that, i think, is \"Night and Day\" by U2. Just listen to Bono wail \"night and daaaaaaaaaaay\" at the end. It gives me chills everytime.

No ... but I took spanish for about 5 years between high school and college; most of it\'s gone now, but I can still read and (with the help of a dictionary) understand most of spanish text.
