Background: Héroes del Silencio was a Spanish rock band from Zaragoza, Spain, formed in 1984. During the 1980s they experienced success around Spain and the Americas, and in various European countries, especially Germany. After twelve years and numerous albums, the band broke up in 1996. In 1990 they released Senderos de Traición, their best-selling album with 2 million copies, including 400,000 copies in the first two weeks in Spain alone. 20 years after their first album, and 11 years after they split up, the band announced a ten-day reunion tour that would take them to Spain and South America. More than 10,000 people attended each concert and some of the concerts saw as many as 90,000 fans (e.g. in Sevilla). This song is their most known and successful single.

Trivia: This song is the title melody of German TV soap "Niedrig und Kuhnt". It is also the running-in music of the Holstein Kiel football team.

My two cents: No hablo espanol. But I love that song. That signature guitar delay in the beginning, the voice of Enrique Bunbury and the lyrics that I don't understand but that sound so familiar. My father bought this CD when it came out and it was one of my favorites when I grew up. It's just ridiculous, the huge number of people that attended their concerts. It's especially funny how successful this song was in Germany, they played it everywhere in bars and clubs and sometimes still do today. It's still in Spanish and nobody gets the lyrics so this muscially has to be a good song.
