Dame besos de tu boca
Que cuando me besas
me pones nervioso

Here’s a new tangos combination for you.
You may use it:
As the singer comes to the end of a line of the letra
When the singer takes a respiro, a pause
Or simply as an exercise to practice coordinating contratiempo sounds with fluid body movements.

Here's a tangos estribillo that we danced to with Mercedes Ruíz during the last Flamenco Tour to Jerez. You can see a tiny snippet from that dance below along with a video of Claudia La Debla.
Tangos
Y voy y voy
date la vuelta ligero
como se la da el reloj…

I love creating dances with my nieces. It's always a collective effort. I teach them some moves. They make up some of their own. They put in things they've learned with others. We make up some stuff together. And we come up with a dance.
Here's an estribillo por tangos that Diana will be singing for them this weekend at the feria. (It's actually perfect for them considering they're obsessed with bread.)

Chorus from Tangos Retrecheros

No sé que tiene el flamenco
que cuando lo canto
me alegra por dentro

You're going to love listening to the tangos in the video below (Trrrrrust me). And the way it's filmed makes you feel like you're right there at the fiesta, so go ahead, play along with palmas. Here's one of the letras you'll hear:
Tangos
Tú te colocas y en frente de mí,
que por si acaso yo me caigo pa' trás
empújale el columpio más

I originally published this here within the letra, Moraito Como un Lirio by Antonio Sánchez Pecino.
Today I wanted to highlight this estribillo:
Libre quiero ser
Como el pájaro que canta,
Primita, al amanecer
I want to be free
like the bird that sings,
at dawn
You can see it in the video that follows...

Sometimes you want to know a song to go along with the dance form you're studying in class. Other times you want to know the words to that particular flamenco song you like so much. And sometimes you long to know what those words mean.
Here you'll find a collection of letras (flamenco verses) organized by palo (flamenco form.)

I find it nearly impossible to walk by a rosemary bush without touching it.
I love the smell it leaves on my fingers.

This song has been running through my head since Wednesday. A couple of years had passed since I'd listened to it. I don't know why.
It's Potito's De Puntillas with Estrella Morente, Josemi Carmona & Juan Habichuela. Listen here.
Here's the estribillo
