yo no tengo la culpa de haber nacido en bilbao...

Today's my lucky day, I made the acquaintance of another Athletic fan online and we discovered that we both live on the outskirts of Bilbao (she in Andoain, me in Augsburg XD) but technically are from Bilbao because those from Bilbao are born wherever they want. XD

I've wanted to share this with you for a long time. I wanted to translate the lyrics first, though. That's why I didn't do it. The thing is that's quite difficult for me to translate... Quoting you: "I don't feel confident enough to offer a translation". I'll wait for a while and if no one translated it I'll try again with my "inglés de Bilbao" and see what comes out

I understand completely! That song is horribly difficult to translate, not to say impossible! But with a couple of explanations everyone can understand it! XD May I share the explanations you e-mailed me? Or are you going to post an entry in your journal? Then I'd link people to it. :D

YOUR INGLÉS DE BILBAO IS FINE! Just saying!! :D

Argh, I'd copied the lyrics from a website and didn't even bother to check! How silly of whoever posted it to get that line wrong!!

YO SOY DE BILBAO! :D Heh, it feels great to say that. And by the way, it's actually true because on the world map of Bilbao, Augsburg is in the east. So it totally counts! XDDDD

Mmm, your mention of those mushrooms just made my stomach grumble. I WANT TO HAVE THEM AGAIN!!

"That song is horribly difficult to translate, not to say impossible!" Couldn't agree more!

You can post whatever you want (translation, explanations...). But if you post my explanations try to make them "undertsnadeble". I mean, rewrite them if necessary, if you see that something might be understood better if said in some other way.

Yes, I think I spot Augsburg on that map... north-east, right? xDD

What a great video! All the places I recognize! The pintxos!
OMG, the Plaza Nueva made tears come to my eyes! :)

The kitten looking into the mirror and seeing a lion was priceless!
And the lion humping Eto'o!
And Amore! Isn't he the best? LMAO!

Oh please, I hope xurda87 translates the lyrics, because I'd love to see the song in English! :)))))

Thanks for posting such a wonderful video! XD

YES!! It's such a brilliant video, and the song and the lyrics are made of win! :D We're going to provide a translation/explanation soon, we just have to find out who's going to do it. XD
