Montevideo (Spanish pronunciation: [mo̞n̪t̪e̞β̞iˈð̞e̞.o̞]) is the largest city, the capital, and the chief port of Uruguay. The settlement was established in 1726 by Bruno Mauricio de Zabala, as a strategic move amidst a Spanish-Portuguese dispute over the platine region, and as a counter to the Portuguese colony at Colonia del Sacramento. According to the census of 2004, Montevideo has a population of 1,325,968 (about half of Uruguay's population). It has an area of 530 square kilometres (200 sq mi) and extends 20 kilometres (12 mi) from west to east. The southernmost cosmopolitan capital city in the Americas and third most southern in the world, it is situated in the southern coast of the country, on the northeastern bank of the Río de la Plata (Spanish: "Silver River") — which is often referred to in English-speaking countries as the River Plate. The city was under brief British rule in 1807 and was involved in the first major naval battle in the Second World War: the Battle of the River Plate. It is also the place where the Montevideo convention was signed, in 1933, by nineteen nations of the Americas. The city hosted all of the matches during the first FIFA World Cup in 1930. Montevideo has a rich architectural and cultural heritage, the latter including tango and candombe. According to Mercer Human Resource Consulting, in 2007 Montevideo provided the highest quality of life in Latin America.
Luz Casal, born November 11, 1958 at Boimorto, is a Spanish pop singer. She grew up in neighbouring Asturias, took singing, piano and ballet classes, and moved to Madrid to pursue a career as a musician.
She became famous in the early 1980s, and remained an important figure in Spanish pop music all through said decade and beyond, with her sound gradually maturing towards soft adult pop. She recorded a cover version of Étienne Daho's French language song "Duel au Soleil" in Spanish called "Un nuevo día brillará", which became a hit song. Since the beginning of her career, she has sold over five million albums.
In 1992 she enjoyed great success with her appearance in the soundtrack of Pedro Almodóvar's acclaimed film High Heels singing Agustín Lara's theme "Piensa en mí".
In January 2007, Luz Casal was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent an operation at the Ruber Clinic in Madrid.[citation needed], seven months later, she revealed to the Spanish media that she had overcome her disease. More recently in May 2010, she announced that she had been diagnosed with cancer in her other breast and had to cancel her current tour to be operated on.
Eduardo Hughes Galeano (born September 3, 1940) is a Uruguayan journalist, writer and novelist. His best known works are Memoria del fuego (Memory of Fire Trilogy, 1986) and Las venas abiertas de América Latina (Open Veins of Latin America, 1971) which have been translated into twenty languages and transcend orthodox genres: combining fiction, journalism, political analysis, and history. The author himself has proclaimed his obsession as a writer saying, "I'm a writer obsessed with remembering, with remembering the past of America above all and above all that of Latin America, intimate land condemned to amnesia."
Galeano was born in Montevideo, Uruguay to a middle class Catholic family of European descent (Italian, Spanish, German and British descent). Like many young Latin American boys, Galeano dreamed of becoming a football (soccer) player; this desire was reflected in some of his works, such as El Fútbol A Sol Y Sombra (Football In Sun and Shadow). In his teens, Galeano worked odd jobs — as a factory worker, a bill collector, a sign painter, a messenger, a typist, and a bank teller. At 14 years, Galeano sold his first political cartoon to the Socialist Party weekly, El Sol and married for the first time in 1959. He started his career as a journalist in the early 1960s as editor of Marcha, an influential weekly journal which had such contributors as Mario Vargas Llosa, Mario Benedetti, Manuel Maldonado Denis and Roberto Fernández Retamar. For two years he edited the daily Época and worked as editor-in-chief of the University Press. In 1962, having divorced, he remarried to Graciela Berro.
Pharrell Williams (born April 5, 1973), commonly known simply as Pharrell, is an American rapper, singer, record producer, composer, and fashion designer. Williams and Chad Hugo make up the record production duo The Neptunes, producing hip hop and R&B music. He is also the lead vocalist and drummer of hip-hop band N.E.R.D, which he formed with Hugo and childhood friend Shay Haley. He released his first single "Frontin'" in 2003 and followed up with his first album In My Mind in 2006.
As part of The Neptunes, Williams has produced numerous hit singles for various musicians. The two have earned three Grammy Awards amongst ten nominations. He is also the co-founder of the clothing brands Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream Clothing. He is a member of the supergroup V.A. Playaz with Fam-Lay, Clipse, Skillz, Missy Elliott, and Timbaland & Magoo.
Pharrell Williams was born on April 5, 1973, in Virginia Beach, Virginia, the eldest of three sons of Carolyn, a teacher, and Pharaoh Williams, a handyman. He met Chad Hugo in a seventh-grade summer band camp where Williams played the keyboards and drums and Hugo played tenor saxophone. They were also both members of a marching band; Williams played the snare drum while Chad was student conductor. With Hugo, Williams attended Princess Anne High School where they played in the school band; there he got the name Skateboard P.

Should I leave
Just let go of
Everythin', anythin'
Should I stay, try to hold on to
What might have been
But I feel I'm
Wasting my time again
Feel like I have
Nothing left to win
Where were you
When I needed a friend?
There's just nothing, nothing left
As I bleed
Though this wounds aren't
Hurting you they're killing me
And I feel this life ain't
Worth hanging on to tonight
So it's real
Say goodbye, no more you and me
No more fights
Only mine, mine and misery
But I feel I'm
Wasting my time again
Feel like I have
Nothing left to win
Where were you
When I needed a friend?
Is there nothing, nothing, nothing left?
As I bleed
Though this wounds aren't
Hurting you they're killing me
And I feel this life ain't
Worth hanging on to tonight
Ain't worth hanging on to tonight
As I bleed
Though this wounds aren't
Hurting you they're killing me
And I feel this life ain't
Worth hanging on tonight
But I feel I'm
Wasting my time again
Feel like I have
Nothing left to win
Where were you
When I needed a friend?
Come into my world
Won't you sit yourself inside, what's mine is yours
All you ever need
But I can see no reason why you should
Come with me my friend to the waters edge
Stay a little while
As you walk again into freedom
Then I'll be there as you fear
Fear, fear the hate, fear the pain
Fear the one thing you can't change
My life, my mind, couldn't escape me if you tried
Enter today, why don't you stay
Come with me don't run away
From the hate, from the pain
Be all that you should be
Look into my eyes
You may find a feeling from within
Visions so unkind
Re-define seduction laced with sin
Come with my friend to the waters edge
Play a little while
Walk once again into freedom
All I'll be there as you...
Fear, fear the hate, fear the pain
Fear the one thing you can't change
My life, my mind, couldn't escape me if you tried
Enter today, why don't you stay
Come with me don't run away
From the hate, from the pain
Be all that you should be
Are you scared? I couldn't hurt you
Are you scared? Are you scared?
Are you afraid?
Fear, fear the hate, fear the pain
Fear the one thing you can't change
My life, my mind, couldn't escape me if you tried
Enter today, why don't you stay
Come with me don't run away
From the hate, from the pain
How could you wash your fears away?
Welcome to this!
Daybreak, miles away
Don't know what I've done again
Can't be the same as before
No wait, disgrace
But I don't see a hurting face
Release me once and for all
I'm alone, won't you help me?
Trapped inside my unreal world
Unchained, free again
Lock away those darkened days
Make my return from the fall
No time, to decide
Erase the fiction from my mind
Invite the future to call
I'm alive, won't you help me?
Trapped inside my unreal world
I don't know what is happening
All alone, in this unreal world
No change, back again
To think that I could ever win
This toxin rage will go on
Will go on...
I'm alone, won't you help me?
Trapped inside my unreal world
I don't know what is happening
All alone, in my unreal world
I'll survive, this unreal world
So you've come back, to me my friend
It's been so long since we could share
The light dividing shadow fall
So many still are torn apart
Forever near, yet so far
Anything could change my life
But nothing could stop all the pain that's inside of me
Anyway just who would care?
If I was to end it here
Meet me where the shadows fall
Take me to some other place in my life
Somewhere when I had no reason to die
Take me to some other place that you know
Where we can live forever
Anyway just who would care?
If I was to end it here
Meet me where the shadows fall
Take me to some other place in my life
Somewhere when I had no reason to die
Take me to some other place that you know
Where we can live forever
You terrorise my mind, you're so unkind
You fuck with me inside, you terrify
I have no will to live, with you around
Go fuck with someone else, and drag them down
I see nothing wrong, in my perfect life
Take me as I am
Take it while you can
Come, step inside this room, it welcomes fools
Time for you to choose or disapprove
Blind by you're sick idea, of how it is
I don't need that here, so disappear
I see nothing wrong, it's a perfect life
Take it while you can
Introduce yourself!
I see nothing wrong, in my perfect life
Take me as I am
Take it while you can
I see nothing wrong, it's a perfect life
Take it while you can
Introduce yourself!
Picture time as before
Where you slept through it all?
They believe you were there
Why deny what I say?
Vicious lies being told
You stand there how absurd
And with hate in your mind convict me
Take my life away
Or give the answer you hold
And stand unashamed of what you have done
Don't just walk away
Unlock the chains from your heart
Prove my innocence cause I did no wrong
Empty words, lies from the start
We stood strong, never apart
Had it all in our hands
We had it all, yes, you and me
Now the tables have turned
All I gave you return
Makes me hard to believe
What you've done to me
Don't call me a friend
Don't you understand, don't need it
Take my life away
Or give the answer you hold
And stand unashamed of what you have done
Don't just walk away
Unlock the chains from your heart
Prove my innocence cause I did no wrong
Take my life away
Or give the answer you hold
And stand unashamed of what you have done
Don't just walk away
Unlock the chains from your heart
Prove my innocence cause I did no wrong
Whiskey bottle, wash your fears away
I'm so sure they'll return again
Talk is cheap, why not try to explain?
Just what's wrong maybe I could help
If like me, you need escape
Just one chance to prove yourself
Just to be someone
Just to mean something somewhere
Push yourself down a deeper hole
Take my hand we could stop it all
Drag your dreams to another place
Introduce them to life my friend
If like me, you need escape
Just one chance to prove yourself
Just to be someone
Just to mean something somewhere
If like me, you need escape
Just one chance to prove yourself
Just to be someone
Just to mean something somewhere
Show me the one thing I always wanted
Unwilling sacrifice
Deeper your reason, less than I'm feeling
Towards you this time
If only you could see my way
If only words could heal my friend
Understand one thing I've never wanted
You to change my life
Circumstances may take advantage
Over you tonight
If only you could see my way
If only words could heal, my friend
If only you could see my way
If only words could heal, my friend
If only words could heal, my friend
If only words could heal again
Take me now into your arms
And show one last time
You are and where
More than night and day
Your strenght could
Take my pain away
But here it is
We stand, we fall
Dry your eyes now and save
All your tears tonight
We stand like
Thousands gone before
Still I'll rise, so save
All your tears tonight
It's not the way
That the end draws near
It's not the way
I can evade my fear
So I'm with you more each day
I'll sleep though I'm not far away
But here it is
We stand, we fall
Dry your eyes now and save
All your tears tonight
We stand like
Thousands gone before
Still I'll rise, so save
All your tears tonight
We stand, we fall tonight:
Waitin', I'm not waitin' for you
I no longer care
Spit the taste from my mouth
Won't look back again
I need only one thing, one thing left to take
Pushin' it completely off the edge again
Feel it inside of me
Watin', I'm not wastin' this life
When this is all I have
Grab what I believe in
Let go of the past
I have only one thing left to justify
Free myself from weakness
Brand new state of mind
Feel it, inside again, fallin'
We could begin, feel it
Inside again
Feel it inside:
Feel it, inside again, fallin'
We could begin, feel it
Inside again
We could begin, feel it
We could begin, fallin'
We could begin, feel it
Inside again
Waitin', I'm not waitin' for you
I thought you were my maker
I thought you were my friend
Your smile met every other
Your life was pure decent
Inside, you're mine
Control had taken over me
You call, I fall
That was and is no more
So let it go
My heart it bleeds for you inside
My heart it bleeds for you child
I thought you were my lover
On you I could depend
Been treated like no other
My life proved second best
Inside, you're mine
Control had taken over me
You call, I fall
Your secrets are no more
So let it go
My heart it bleeds for you inside
My heart it bleeds for you child
My heart it bleeds for you inside
My heart it bleeds for you child
So let it go
My heart it bleeds for you inside
My heart it bleeds for you child
My heart it bleeds for you inside
My heart it bleeds for you child
Mother, why don't you hear me
Won't you put that down and love me again
Mother why don't you see now
All that I did wrong I'm not trying to end
Can't you feel the desperation
That lies behind these sorry eyes
It's gone too far for me to escpae this wrong
I'm so ashamed
I don't need it, mother don't you know
I could leave it, mother don't let go
I still feel it, mother won't you stay
I don't need to tell you I was wrong
Now I'm back to where I belong
So tonight don't let me go
So I got lost in an immoral game
Destroyed my life, just threw it away
Now I ask you help me with my mind
Oh, won't you come help me win this time
We could fight this desperation
That's slowly turning me off life
No more livin' lost, alone and afraid
No more this grey disguise
I don't need it, mother don't you know
I could leave it, mother don't let go
I still feel it, mother won't you stay
I don't need to tell you I was wrong
Now I'm back to where I belong
So tonight don't let me go
I'd like to look just like you
And I'd like to feel just like you
And I'd like to talk just like you
I'd like to be,
Yes, I'd like to be like
Why try to look just like you
And why try to do things to do
Why change my mind,
My point of view
Cause I'd like to be
No, I'd like to feel like
Scum slag white trash
Feelin' out of place again
What the fuck you're doin' here
You don't fit in
High class nice boy
Makin' like somebody's toy
Head stuck up some fuckers ass
Working no class
Cause I'd like to look
And I'd like to look
Cause I'd like to look
Cause I'd like to look
And I'd like to look
And I'd like to look
And I'd like to look
Cause I'd like to look
Like you
Like you
Emptiness inside, don't you understand
Pain haunts me tonight, won't you take my hand
Silent I lie still, scared by what is me
Why hang on to this, let me go:
You can't hide from your mistakes
Cause they'll hunt you down anywhere
Wipe that cold smile off your face
Cause they'll hunt you down anyway
Angels hear my cries, but you so selfishly keep me alive
Say, what's wrong or right?
Who says when it's time?
Silent I lie still, nothing left of me
I ask one last thing, help me go:
You can't hide from your mistakes
Cause they'll hunt you down anywhere
Wipe that cold smile off your face
As they'll hunt you down anywhere
You can't hide from your mistakes
Cause they'll hunt you down anywhere
Wipe that cold smile off your face
As they'll hunt you down anywhere
You came close this time
Close to findin' a way
A way to change my mind
But I feel sure
I've heard it before
So you push yourself
Always in my face
Chance to realise
That I've made mistakes
But I've made my break
Won't get left behind
I'm not afraid
Listen my friend
You'll be fine, if you don't
Waste my time, don't you know
You could share
All the visions that I have
And you know, I could change
But I won't, anyway
That is why, you should find
Someone else and waste their time
You'll be fine, if you don't
Waste my time, don't you know
You could share
All the visions that I have
And you know, I could change
But I won't, anyway
That is why, you should find
Someone else and waste their time
You could change don't you know
You could change don't you know
You could change
But I don't like you anyway!
Helpless confusion lures my mind
Into the arms of you tonight
Images form but I can't see
Through the infectious distraction that is welcoming me
Now I try to run but it's too late
The damage is done all I do is wait
Slow the release for us to share
Soon you'll take hold then I won't care
Designer climb destined to fall
Seduced with lies you took it all
Of what you give don't want no more
You never understand, you always take control of my life
With you I have no room to breathe
You're always never off my mind
Now memories fade and time is stalled
As freedom gets lost behind closed doors
Pray for some peace within my head
As I relive things I can't forget
Designer climb destined to fall
Seduced with lies you took it all
Of what you give can't take no more
You never understand, you always take control of my life
With you I have no room to breathe
You're always never off my mind
You never were my friend, how could I let you into my life?
With you I have no room to breathe
You're always never off my mind
Designer climb destined to fall
Seduced with lies you took it all
Of what you give can't take no more
You never understand, you always take control of my time
With you I have no room to breathe
You're always never off my mind
You never were my friend, how could I let you into my life?
With you I have no room to breathe
You're always never off my mind
Endless search for reason
Days of non believing
Myself falling into me
Thought you held no secrets
Thought that you weren't keeping
Anything so far away
You laughed through this world
Forever dreaming, a child like anyone
Now you're ten miles high
Can't believe you died
Can't believe you tried
Searching for the sun
Everything you've done
Left you cold inside
Dragged of from the past
Nothin' meant to last
Somehow found a way
Of getting to you child
Can't believe you tried
Have no way of knowing
Hard to fight this feeling
You took everything I had
Just you rest for me now
Eternally in peace now
Meet you someday, somewhere
You laughed through this world
Forever dreaming
Why you and not anyone?
Now you're ten miles high
Can't believe you died
Can't believe you tried
Searching for the sun
Everything you've done
Left you cold inside
Dragged of from the past
Nothin' meant to last
Somehow found a way
Of getting to you child
Can't believe you tried
You laughed through this world
Forever dreaming
Why you and not anyone?
Now you're ten miles
You must be ten miles high
Can't believe you died
Can't believe you tried
Searching for the sun
Everything you've done
Left you cold inside
Dragged of from the past
Nothin' meant to last
Somehow found a way
Way back into you
Nothing left to do
Nothing I can say
Can't believe you died
Can't believe you tried
Can't believe you died
Can't believe it
Now, welcome to the game
That anyone can play
Where you know the stakes are high
But you still what to try
Where temptations your best friend
Also the enemy within
Too late to change your mind
Now that your life is on the line
And heads they win
And tails you loose
If you wanna break free, well it's up to you
Now visions walk your mind
And the danger hides inside
Indecision rules your head
Eager to forget
That the faith you once lived for
Hangs alone upon the wall
Can't believe on words no more
Attitude has go to take control of you from here
To allow for the truth
Then deny the fear
And bring back reality
Open your eyes
It's your life only you can change it
Look and you'll find a way
Come with me tonight
Bring hopes and dreams and you can make it
Look and you'll find a way
Just as everything goes wrong
Have belief and carry on
You'll find faith and you'll grow strong
Open your eyes
It's your life only you can change it
Look and you'll find a way
Come with me tonight
Bring hopes and dreams and you can make it
Look and you'll find a way
Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes
Come with me tonight
Bring hopes and dreams and you will make it
Look and you'll find a way
Open your eyes...
Mother why don't you hear me?
Won't you put that down and love me again
Mother why can't you see now?
All that I did wrong I'm now tying to end
Can't you feel the desperation?
That hides behind these sorry eyes
It's gone too far for me to escape this wrong
I'm so ashamed
So I got lost in an immoral game
Destroyed my life, just threw it away
Now I ask you, help me with my mind
Won't you come? Help win this time
We could fight this desperation
That's slowly turning me off life
No more living lost, alone and afraid
No more this grey disguise
I don't need it, mother don't you know
I can leave it, mother don't let go
I still feel it, momma won't you stay
I don't need to tell you I was wrong
Now I'm back where I belong
So tonight don't let me go
So slow it drowned my mind
Control beat me insane
With joy welcome me home, back to your love
I don't need it, mother don't you know
I could leave it, mother don't let go
I still feel it, momma won't you stay
I don't need to tell you I was wrong
Now I'm back where I belong
So tonight don't let me go
