‘El madrileño’, ‘Pucho’ or C.Tangana are among the nicknames with which we all know Antón Álvarez.
Antón grew up between the Madrid neighborhoods of Usera and Carabanchel, imitating Mostovoi’s free-kicks. Heavenly coronary heart for his father, an “emigrant from Vigo” or that’s how the artist refers to him.
Already accustomed to being criticized and going in opposition to the grain, even from a younger age. “I studied at a college in Carabanchel, it was not new that my Celticism was doubted. I needed to shout that I used to be from Celta on a regular basis, ”he says by means of tears.
The man from Madrid is “very proud” to be from the sky-blue staff. His love membership, to which he dedicates verses akin to “nadicia are celestial, celtista not undergo”.
Some phrases that caught on with the followers and which can be a part of the centenary anthem, “Oliveira dos cen anos 1923-2023”, which premiered this morning.
A bit that has precipitated loads of commotion on social networks and that makes it clear what it means to be a Celtic participant.
A troublesome feeling to elucidate for ‘Pucho’, but additionally for the remainder of the followers. Because regardless of the adversities and people scares, with one foot on the decline, they are saying, “it is fortunate to be from Celta”.
Fight and union is what this anthem represents, with which C.Tangana seeks to “endure over time and that the sensation of belonging to this membership is stronger for individuals who already are, however that it’s also perceived from outdoors”.
a film shoot
After a break, after an exhausting tour, the person from Madrid needed to “develop” the Celtic feeling, with Galicia and the followers within the foreground.
The video clip guides us by means of the Vigo estuary, with a panoramic view of the island of San Simón and the Rande bridge.
Some spectacular photographs, however troublesome to document. “I had by no means been on such an advanced shoot. You should contain lots of people, it is a film shoot, ”he provides.
An thrilling journey through which his regular collaborators combine with Galician artists, to exalt a sense for custom, tradition or the Galician language.
The music is just not far behind both. The rafts develop into the proper setting on which the members of the emblematic Casablanca Choir sing, accompanied by the tambourines of the Lagharteiras, the alalás and that Galician folklore with texts of conventional cantigas.
For C.Tangana, with the ability to dedicate time to analysis, within the musical half, was a present. “I wanted to create once more, once more, with pleasure, with pleasure, with time”, he qualifies.
And what higher than to do it in Galicia. “There is one thing in Galician folklore and within the Galician root, which is supernatural.”
Although what has caught his consideration essentially the most are the percussions and feminine voices, which he has not heard wherever else.
“Always Celtic!”
“Un escudo no meu peito” and different chants which can be heard each weekend in Balaídos attain the hearts of followers who end off the piece with a colossal finale that sentences their emotions. “Always Celtic!” they shout.
Although some have been stunned to not hear the voice of ‘Pucho’, however the artist was clear, from the outset, that he wouldn’t be the one to sing the anthem.
He has been behind the composition and manufacturing and though it’s not the primary video he has directed, it’s the most bold, which is why he’s “very completely satisfied and proud”.
In addition, between laughs, he says that it’s the first time that he has lived with one among his works for thus lengthy and he continues to love it. “Normally, after I do one thing I get sick of it, for instance, I can not hearken to music anymore, however not this time,” she says.
Of course, above all, he desires individuals to overlook that he’s behind these verses. ‘El madrileño’ desires to be yet another as a result of the hymns “belong to the individuals”.
“This anthem belongs to nobody and I do not wish to discuss who made it in 100 years as a result of it belongs to the membership,” he says.
In reality, the artist is never seen within the video clip, at all times surrounded by the followers of his roots.
A tribute to his ‘previous man’ and to Galicia, his land
During the preview of the video clip on the AFundación theater in Vigo, the artist couldn’t comprise his emotion. Something that he had already warned at the start.
Because, though he was born and lives in Madrid, his father’s total household is from Vigo. “If I shed a tear at this time, it is as a result of this is essential to me, not simply due to my Celticism,” the artist continued.
And he was proper as a result of he needed to cease at numerous instances as a result of his emotion. For him, this centenary hymn is a method of “paying homage” to all that his ‘previous man’ has given him.
“This day has loads to do with my household and my blood and with the ability to give him one thing that my father likes and enjoys is a supply of pleasure,” he stated.
But, indisputably, essentially the most emotional second was when his father, with whom he shares his identify, took the stage, stunning us with a young hug of pleasure between him and his son.
“It’s the primary time I care what they assume”
Despite this picture of a troublesome and rebellious boy, C.Tangana was nervous concerning the launch of the composition.
The singer considers that annoying has at all times been a part of his DNA, however this time he has finished one thing for which, for the primary time, he cares what others assume.
Normally he likes it when individuals don’t love his music, however this time, it does not. Perhaps as a result of it’s the “greatest and most vital” cultural undertaking of these he has finished.
“I’ve by no means finished something of this weight, and, moreover, it has which means in my reminiscences, in my nostalgia,” he says.
