Luz Casal's story behind the 'I do not care'

In the fifth album of Luz Casal each track was a gamble. The eclectic Light V (1989), in which lived electric guitars, synthesizers and even had room for maracas, opened with two love songs opposite styles and approaches. While Loca was the provocative statement to a former boyfriend seated and probably somewhat sorry, I let you go torn string section and had a beautiful singing was frustrating to have loved and lost. Amid this repertoire sense, a cynical and disbelieving song became the biggest hit of Luz Casal. I do not care inspiration was a couple that was not up to the romance of the sonnets, his letter was a narrative about the lack of emotion, devoid of drama boleros without the illusion of pop, which spoke of a of those relationships where one embarks unconvinced and leaves wondering: what am I doing with my life?
And I do not careyou laugh or dreamyou say or do
In the late eighties, Gloria Varona had composed some verses, but had never considered doing songs. His brother, the musician Pancho Varona, was the one who encouraged this official of the Ministry of Employment and Social Security to provide him with letters: 'I do not care nothing' was his third composition. Everyone knows that the early works tend to be especially autobiographical ... and then that thirties had a boyfriend.
"It was the kind of guy that you know you are lying and deceiving," Gloria says, "but that basically will not matter too much because you are aware that it is a transient person."

Disenchantment with that relationship on autopilot easier to write the letter in a row. In just ten minutes Gloria had a manuscript that would become number 1 Top 40, Luz Casal open the doors of the international market and, years later, would be translated into French. There was barely changes retrospectively, although at first the letter said "I hear your crap about love and desire" (Gloria finally changed the term 'crap' to 'nonsense' that recognizes laughing, "sung sounded too hard" ).
"Many people say," Oh, how sad, "but to me the song did not seem sad nor was my intention when I did," he says. "Talk about all the weariness, that we are to be playing boyfriends. What you need you tell me balls and you come to talk of love, if we both know what this is?. "
This variety of readings that has the issue is especially graphic if we compare the two videos that accompanied the song. The first, quite murky, had a starring leather-clad Light punishing that ran a discotheque seducing reluctantly who is put forward.


As he ended the letter passed to his brother Pancho, composer, producer and partner tour Joaquin Sabina, whom the singer voice breaking once described as "my scaffold, my everything." If your sister alone you took ten minutes to get the letter, Pancho took two years to come up with appropriate music.
"I was a long time trying to do something decent, but I came out unbearable, sad ballads, was a song coñazo" recalls Pancho.
Do not be emotionally involved and also see first hand the inspiration of the subject made him be a little more lenient. After all, we know that under the speeches of grandeur and self-affirmation that preach love after a bad experience there is also disappointment and sorrow. He wanted the music convey what words did not recognize. "Hearing the letter which she wins the combat is but really both something bad happens. It seemed a sad story for both, "he says.
When in 1989, aided by guitarist Manolo Rodriguez, Pancho finally got the musical balance between security and sadness, she recorded a demo at home, an apartment in the Madrid neighborhood of La Latina in the tumult of tourists streaming through the windows. That original version had nothing do not care, attention, an American country style.
