Manu Chao
|
José-Manuel Thomas Arthur Chao rođen je u Parizu nakon što su njegovi roditelji, cijenjeni pisac Ramon Chao i majka Bilbao, prebjegli iz Španjolske bježeći pred Francovom diktaturom. Ljubav prema dobroj glazbi došla mu je prirodno, obzirom da je od ranog djetinjstva bio okružen umjetnicima i intelektualcima, pa već u tinejdžerskim danima, zaražen britanskim grupama The Clash i Dr. Feelgood s prijateljima osniva rockabilly - punk bend Les Hot Pants. Ipak, bend se nije uspio dugo održati na glazbenoj sceni kao takav, već je ubrzo prerastao u kultni Mano Negra, i kao takav godinama djelovao na svjetskoj glazbenoj sceni rušeći granice između kultura, dok se u konačnici, 1994. godine Manu Negra nije raspao. |

- When you listen to your heart, you are on the right track. When you listen to what all the people say, you are led astray. Bob Marley was the son of a white man and a black woman, if what all those people say was true, BM himself would not be able to feel it. Rasta is for ALL people. Do not let anyone tell you differently. That is why, when you hear his music, you feel it. It is inside you, let it out. I personally have never been to Africa, yet, but I can advise you, that, until you make your trip to Africa, you can learn much right where you are, just by looking around and listening. You will be suprised at how much of Africa there is all around you, and inside of you. I know that feeling you have when you hear Reggae music, I feel it is my way of life also, and have been trying to live it ever since that first time I hear Bob singing, "one good thing about music, when it hits, you feel no pain. So hit me with music....."...many years ago....
see you in Africa one day!

Reincarnated souls
We are reincarnated souls from that time
Living on earth, heat air and water in this time (rep.)
In the beginning was the word
And the word manifested itself in the flesh
Which ever become man
All because of the devine plan
Man being lower than the angels,
Over all earth was as he given dominion
He devised his own destruction
But the word lives on and on
He who is weary let him come hither
He who has eyes to see
Let him look yonder
He who is thirsty let him drink clear water
Drink water children
Drink my water children
For it's the age of aquarius
Can't you see its dawning, dawning
It's the age of aquarius
Can't you see its dawning, dawning
It's the age of aquarius
So keep your love lights burning. burning
