El Gran Señor Lyrics in English by Los Autenticos Decadentes, Los Nocheros

This song, "El Gran Señor" by Los Auténticos Decadentes with Los Nocheros, is a really interesting take on moving on from a past relationship. The singer tells us that since they no longer have to "cuidar tu cariño" [take care of your affection] or "oír tus caprichos" [listen to your whims], they "ya no sufro tanto" [don't suffer as much]. It sounds like the relationship was a lot of work!

Then, the song introduces "el gran señor" [the great lord], someone who drives a Rolls-Royce and has a very "sobrador" [arrogant] air. This new person tried to be the love that would make the ex-partner forget the singer, but the lyrics are clear: "nunca lo logró ni lo logrará" [he never achieved it, nor will he]. The rich man shared his wealth to try and get "un poco de amor, lo que nunca vos le pudiste dar" [a little love, what you could never give him]. It's a pretty blunt assessment of a relationship built on money rather than genuine affection, and the singer seems quite content to be out of that whole situation.
