French, pah! Spanish, as I may have said before, was the language I loved the most (well, as a teenager anyway...and boy, can teenagers love!). Here is Ana Laan singing one of her lovely songs in Spanish:
Ana is an old friend (albeit one that I seem to have lost touch with...again). Still she's a very good singer and songwriter... even if she doesn't reply to emails. Here she is singing in English on a live recording (the introduction is in Spanish but it sounds lovely even if you don't understand her):
The first song is from her first album 'Orégano' and the second is from her second 'Chocolate and Roses'.
Nothing else to add today. ..gearing up for the visitor season...just enjoy.

How beautiful, in all senses. Black and white of the second one fabulous.
Hope the gearing up isn't too onerous ....
Lovely. Spanish is such a soulful language.
Yes, both albums are great. I don't think they've had UK releases which is a shame as I think her songs would be very popular with UK audiences. She speaks English fluently too.
As for the gearing up for visitors...it just means more bed linen and shopping lists than sonnets and blogging. Always good to see folk though. Well, almost always.

The pictures with the first song are from a fan I think.

Gracias! :)
Even when they sing of pain and sorrow, I swear the music is still hypnotic and somehow uplifting.
Don't let the visitors wear you out. :)
Enjoyed both sets of sounds, Swiss. Very much. I have listened to bits of Ojos de Brujo but never invested...our Girl loved this clip though so maybe I will.
And Hope...yes, the sound of Spanish has always done it for me.
