I'm Going Alone | The Weekly Letra

The Festival de Jerez is in full swing right now, so today I'll share with you a video from there taken earlier this week of Ana Morales with Juan José Amador singing her this letra:

Livianas
Popular

A la orilla de un río
yo me voy solo
y aumento la corriente
con lo que lloro

To the river bank
I go alone
and boost the current
with my tears

This letra begins at 3:40 in the video below:

Listen to Miguel Poveda sing it here and Enrique Morente sing it here.

(I found the words here.)

You can see more videos from the festival here. (Like this snippet of our dear amigo Emilio Ochando's performance from yesterday. I'm SO happy for him!)
