Clandestino but later misappropriated/usurped for sanctified sexist/misogynist/racist gyration titillation pop music video. Memories of a white supremacist "alternative" "Hipster" clan that had the usual hate-crime plan but danced around smoking pot at the same time because it was illegal and clandestine but they were assured that they were "entitled" and thus completely free to mock the white-entitled-male-supremacy-based judicial system that favored their every crime.

Manu Chao - Clandestino (Lyrics). Eva Aslanidou. March 13, 2013.






 Esto Cancion lifts layers of buried memory--Miami Beach/South Beach, played every time I was there, at a place right in the heart of SoBe just near 5th Avenue, which was called affectionately by it's inhabitants as "The Yard". It had a central area with three apartment buildings facing into the interior where everyone got out and played chess, did each other's hair, manicures, smoked a lot of pot, listened to music on loud speakers--had parties until the police came at 2 am., etc in this central grassy area. It was there where this album by Mano Chao was played so repeatedly by Argentinian peeps (white males, a family of them, with blonde hair and blue eyes) along with Columbians and white models out of East Europe and Americans and African-Americans and French and Germans--it was a cloister of international "alternative"/skateboard hipster stuff--musicians, many of them. One of the little factions in this group was inter-racial--many intermingled everyone seemingly mixed. They appeared to be "liberal" but actually were "gang stalking" terrorists. The whites who later attacked me openly after years of feigning fake but illusive "friendship" (meaning only socializing in The Yard and never anywhere else except for a few, brief occasions. I recall this album played by the South/Central white males, but speaking Spanish because their grandparents had immigrated there from Europe ostensibly after WWII (hint hint). Some of the fleeing Europ'a's also flew to Oz-land.


Of course they proved to be terrorist "gang stalkers" with absolute affinity to Nazi white supremacy but had support system groups of all kinds of minority minions surrounding them almost all the time (the most hostile one towards me was inter-racially-married and then got divorced leaving his African-American wife with children) while stalking me once I was in the various stage of almost open hostility. Absolutely smiling with hateful warm crocodile smiles before that latter stage.

This album reminds me of them and so I stopped listening to it out of cringing negative memories, but somehow because it was played on Democracy Now just a few days ago by another band which is a lively group endeavor with applications to the real meaning of the song but put in a real folksy and encouraging way, it has been restored in my mind and heart to it's more potent and original meaning and application.

Because I never read the lyrics before today, I did a search to actually understand what the real meaning of this song Clandestino is, because my bare understanding of English got me as far as understanding it was regarding immigration and the Babylon of modern society, I got lost in the words I have never heard before.

I then discovered today that the lyrics regard smoking marijuana, and I think that was when those white Nazi boy descendants who utilized the brown and black minority minions to do their foul and nasty hate attacks upon me, would always play that song dancing a bit while passing hand-rolled joints around to one another. In Miami prosecutions of drugs inevitably are far outweighed towards the poorer sections and the courthouses have indictments aimed at low-level drug use like MJ for blacks and Latinos but on South Beach the "entitled" drug users do this stuff openly and the police never come--this "yard" area was always an open pot smoking place, in broad daylight with a residential but fairly busy street system grid surrounding this heart and central location in very police-packed Miami Beach. This all happened during those latter 1990's days on South Beach when the MJ was illegal but abundant like the rays of the rank sun beating down on freezing implacable hearts.

Good memories/bad memories, the song remains fascinating but played by this band. There is another version by Shakira which is like all the bland pop songs synthesized and amplified with a monotone vocal range instead of the personality of Manu Chao.

Ay caramba~!

The real lyrics translated into English:

Clandestino (English translation)
Artist: Manu Chao •Also performed by: Adriana Calcanhotto, Florent Pagny, Natalia Doco
Song: Clandestino •Album: Clandestino

Clandestine*
I come only with my punishment
There comes only my conviction
Running is my fate
In order to deceive the law
Lost in the heart
Of the great Babylon
They call me the Clandestine*
'cause I don't carry any identity papers
To a northern city
I went for work
I left my life behind
Between Ceuta and Gibraltar
I'm a just a rake on the sea
A ghost in the city
My life is prohibited
Says the authority
I come only with my punishment
There comes only my conviction
Running is my fate
'cause I don't carry any identity papers
Lost in the heart
Of the great Babylon
They call me the Clandestine*
I'm the sellout of law
Clandestine Black Hand**
Peruvian Clandestine*
African Clandestine*
Marijuana illegal
I come only with my punishment
There comes only my conviction
Running is my fate
In order to deceive the law
Lost in the heart
Of the great Babylon
They call me the Clandestine*
'cause I don't carry any identity papers
Algerian Clandestine*
Nigerian Clandestine*
Bolivian Clandestine*
Black Hand** illegal

"About Clandestino
"Clandestino" is the second single and the title track from Manu Chao's first album, Clandestino. The lyrics of the song are sung in Spanish and deal with the issue of immigration: "I wrote it about the border between Europe and those coming from poorer nations. Look around — maybe 30% of the people in this street are clandestino [illegal]." The song peaked at number 78 on the French charts. It charted again in November 2013, peaking at number 196"--

Clandestino - English Lyrics (The Shakira version)




Horrible muy!!!! I see that the Shakira version with "English subtitles" completely erases the original lyrics and turns it into a sexualized version of a writhing sex symbol complaining about a Don Juan type reality where she doesn't want a scrub/aka player. Like totally changed it to a sex version of the wealthy going out playin' instead of the fight against illegal immigrant status and the distortion between wealth and poverty in the global hemispheres! Dude....how much more commercialized can you re-create an original version into it's near opposite? Such a typical reversal from the original rebellion work to the antithesis always promoted at highest commercial levels as an undermining of the original concept. Dude....like damn.

--------------------
-------------------

I can now once more enjoy the entire album now that it's been cleansed of the Nazi Argentinian association. Thanks Democracy Now for this little "gift". It's really a decent album.

You can hear the difference in depth of meaning between the computer-generated, synthesized version that Shakira above gyrates out in that sexualized pop version that is so popular nowadays. It has no meaning other than I will give sex and be and perform primarily as a sex object but want something from a sex partner other than a purely meaningless computer blue sex type of mentality.

In other words, Manu Chao and PERSONALITY like an artist that has actually something to say and not to sell sex or other fake legions of adhesions of sleaze to denigrate actual meaning or profound expressions about life and justice and sanctity of human beings.

The STRANGER IS YOU is the strangler within waiting for you to self-sabotage for THEM: Wait for "them" to reveal what lies behind the smiling, humanitarian masks waiting to "help" you if you would just help them to help you--give them POWER help them to help you! Vote for them! Cheer for them! Believe in their acting and movie roles PUT THEM IN POWER because they entertain you!: As I lay in bed for the past TWO MONTHS in agony at times, under non-stop assault by the haters I have written of endlessly as they are encouraged to go deeper into abuse--years of them making millions off my ideas and out of just simply dumping their racist and sleazy sexist hate upon me as symbol and everything they "hate" and thusly, regardless of anything I have done (nothing except compete and win--in the past before decades of poisoning and health care denied and then torture and poisoning nearly to death and then tortured to the extent that I have spent years in torture hysteria on blogs writing to the incompetent shit of america who have allowed this hate cartel to just go on and on---to the detriment of the planet. MIllions are being killed due to this group of stupid sick crap and many more are dying in America due to this group putting that hate into power (not just a small "1%" but a huge component of the country not silent majority any longer. They tortured me endlessly I wrote their names I have been writing their names and you keep them in power. They mutilated my h ands so badly because I c ould not wrap layers of protection around them--they are withered they have all the veins sticking out--my hands have enlarged and then shrunk in skin tissue but enlarged due to the stress of the cuticles being severed out repeatedly day after day---little knives inserted under my cuticles nightly daily as I lay in bed unable to move--could not get out of bed. Hours of abuse being punched hit slapped and raped by the group and yelled at and sneered at and a president, his wife, two california governors, a senator, another senator, a house rep from Congress and about in the past 3 months 150 celebrities have rushed to assault me with the main abusers who are just rolling in money and were before they latched onto assaulting me becaues appratenly their money could not buy them slots in main roles and producer and profiting off the ideas they steal from me---torturing me to get more and yelling "loser" and "stupid" as they go on every second of the day yelling and threatening y life and abusing and making tears come out of my eyes--spraying stinking filth on my clothing my furniture my curtains my bed etc under things filth sprayed and dumped using their mechanical arms--in every room behind panels which are opened and then sealed shut on the other side---non-stop it goes on and on. My hands were so damaged they look like I am dead --like a dead person's hands the extent of severing into the nail bed every day for years and years (since 2012 it has gone on and on and on nightly that means over 15 years of my cuticles being routinely nightly slashed and cut into almost every single night. But they poured horrific chemicals into my hands which literally the skin tissue has become almost dead in appearance from what they did--the hands are withered and boney with blue veins from the poisons they poured on my hands and skin and then slashed cuticles every nail so the blood flow was restricted. They injected something into my scalp to make the hair dead in the front of my hairline---that goes along with sick and stupid sleazy deep sleep teleportation skits of hate, homelessness and abuse--my hair is completely gone on most of my scalp from the damage they have done, my skin is pockmarked and racked with scars from nghtly poisoning my body is hard internally like an internet hard wall restricting my body and fighting to get it out since 2011 and I am still fighting as for hours every day the rat spawn of depp screams hate at me dirty arnold is always encourating every sick parasitic psychopath sadist (that is what the humanitarians in media and in congress all rally around, the sadism the violence and torture every single one of them don't doubt it for a second--the hippie musicians of the 60's and 70's who were most famous have not stopped for years and years participating all callous rape culture and racist sexist the MEN and their hippie women just can't wait to profit off inflicting torture and near-death upon an innocent person--oh the excuses they make just labeling me with any absurd but dangerous label of justification and then all repeat it. Seeing how the witch hunt mentality is so easily spread in this modern age but then again, these same creeple were put in "power" to regress society to a point of neanderthal homostasis of concern about society and a reversion to feudal lord dominion over those they exploit--to death--they all can't wait. So I remain fighting seeing that there is no salvation the candidates being put as the hopeful for the against rump are just more but not as mandarin jaded as the usual dinos corrugated with corruption but all blathering out the same hopeful jargon as one another---they are all sanctioning with whole-black-hearted glee this endless rape torture nazi violence upon me. Almost all of whorewood has participated all the A$$-hole actor/actress haters all using this contract to never have to fight for a role again, in league with the politicians who want to never have to fight for another election again (rump is promising a 100-year no-contest for repug wins after the midterms when the jack-in-the-box nazi reversion campaign for the golden era of nazi and feudal lord dark ages resumed. To see me able to compete and win and also be beautiful has meant mutilation without end for over 18 years without a single fuck in the entire world defending me against this brutality not one single person doing more than a mere little drop in an ocean of violence---that is the future whatever they are promising for the midterms by now I doubt seriously will result in anything but--in the end not immediate but long-term a worsening of the current but short-term they will appear like Nirvana. In history this has always been the case, but then OOPS THEY Will fail and inevitably the fasco nazi haters will get their concentration camps not only for the "illegal" brown people....
