James Hetfield wrote "Nothing Else Matters" alone in 1990 during the ... And Justice for All, while he was missing his girlfriend at the time. He composed everything in the hotel room, playing the guitar and talking to her on the phone.
It reached #11 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and to this day is one of Metallica's most played songs worldwide.

Dejó absolutamente todo lo que tenía y no le alcanzó, pero para nosotros eso no importa.

"The Power of Love" was written and recorded especially for the film Back to the Future (1985). Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg asked for an original song for the film and Huey Lewis did it right away. He even made a cameo appearance in the film as the audition judge for Marty McFly's band (The Pinheads), he says You guys are too loud! Marty plays guitar. The track became the biggest hit of Huey Lewis and the News' career, #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and helped the film's soundtrack sell more than 6 million copies in the US alone.
Del ska en el 84 al dream pop envolvente del 96. 🚀✨
"Un Misil en mi Placard" es el ejemplo perfecto de cómo Soda Stereo sabía reinventarse. Lo que nació como un ritmo frenético en el álbum debut, terminó convirtiéndose en un refugio sonoro en Comfort y música para volar.
The Guns N’ Roses song “November Rain” has one of the longest and most epic backstories in rock.
Axl Rose began writing it in 1983, before he had even formed Guns N’ Roses. At that time, he was already playing it on the piano in hotel rooms and during rehearsals. The song slowly evolved over the years, incorporating grand orchestral arrangements and becoming a nearly nine-minute power ballad.
The main inspiration for the lyrics and the music video’s concept comes from the short story “Without You,” written by Del James, a close friend of the band. It tells the story of a musician who loses the love of his life. A tale of pain, loss, and grief that resonated deeply with Axl.
When they finally recorded it for the album Use Your Illusion I (1991), it became a monumental production. It featured a full orchestra, piano, acoustic and electric guitars, and one of Slash’s most memorable solos.
Released as a single in 1992, it reached number 3 on the Billboard charts despite its unusual length and became a phenomenon thanks to the music video, one of the most expensive in rock history. It depicts a beautiful wedding with Stephanie Seymour (Axl’s girlfriend at the time) that ends in tragedy amid a torrential storm.
Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful ballads of all time

Todavia hay esperanza, la gente está volviendo a la música en formato físico, sobre todo en vinilos. Prefiero el formato CD por espacio, sonido, y comodidad. Solo falta que abran nuevas tiendas de música. Ojalá lleguemos a eso.
