"Cortés derrota a Molloch,
 el Demonio"

As you may already know, my song Cortez, originally recorded in 2014 on the CD Baby album “Fire of Love”, has been remixed and remastered. My reasons for this are explained here: (Songs About Mexico).

What I also wanted to do was to not deprive the Spanish people a song about their history in which the story/song is not in their native tongue. So I added a Spanish voice over translating the lyrics of the song.

I’ve also made a simple video which has the Spanish subtitles so they can read it. I had a another Spanish translation prior to this but it failed to do justice to the artistic language of the lyrics. Sometimes Google Translate does not work that well.

At Songs About I mention that the big picture of the song is that it is about Good versus Evil. And it is. However, it also reveals that it was God who was in total control of stopping the slaughter and in reality He was using Cortes to stop the bloodshed of the innocent people and introduce a new way of life. 

God defeats the demon but we also give credit to Cortes for his cooperation and give appreciation to those Aztecs who joined the way of life and fought with him.

This was the start of really how Christ brought the people to himself. Obviously, the solidifying moment of the people becoming a people of life and not death occurred later when Juan Diego presented his tilma of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Alas, that is another story (true and miraculous.) There must be something very special about Mexico to warrant having a holy Apparition and deposit a scared image to wonder which has survived over 500 years or so.

Anyway, above is the Spanish narration with music video.

Great News! "God Rules" Adding New Songs

News for you guys!

Finished creating my Reverbnation Page for my religious Rock and Roll that is to be featured on my page "God Rules and Other Songs".

Driven . . . I'm Driven

On the playlist on Reverbnation is an oldie of mine "Monuments" with new remixes and a completely newly recorded solo centerpiece.  Like psychedlica, man! Far Out, but listen to the lyrics. Check out the ending of woeful singers!

Also added the song "Voices and Visions" which is more recent. The guitar is a bit influenced by Cactus but beyond that it is all Rob Lattin. How do you like the ethereal whispering in the song? If you want to now more about the lyrics, drop me a line.

I've added at my Reverb Store, in addition to these two songs the song "I Am A Sinner" and "Closer To God." With I Am A Sinner, I originally had the vocal idea from a Pink Floyd song that transformed into something completely different and with the adding of Creedence Clearwater Revival style guitar playing. The song sounds nothing like Pink Floyd or CCR. Maybe you can see some of my influences from Mark Lindsay  (Paul Revere & the Raiders) and Rusty Day (Amboy Dukes).

Closer to God is an older song which was actually influenced by a sermon (Homily) given by a firey young priest in Chicago back in the 80's. Originally title "Bones A Shaken" which was to be my second CD, until my computer died and destroyed all my artwork, I re-titled the song to Closer To God. This is the remix of the original which was recorded around 2001 and got great reviews from my test audience. The song, which was mostly acoustic now has a Cuban flavor which is what I intended it to be - not a doom and gloom song but a song of hope and joy and awe.

I've added a link to my Reverbnation store at the side panel. So you can enjoy listening to these songs, either on God Rules page or at Reverbnation.
Thanks!
