You are leaving

Hearing this for the first time, I thought it had to have been written for burlesque shows. From the teasing vox and woozy horns, you'd never suspect that the song is all heartache and melodrama - "come back soon, my breath is going away." Especially if you don't speak Spanish. As much as I love the groove, that disconnect is actually my favorite thing about this song. That and the weird sourness in the intro.

Jeanette - Porque Te Vas
