Imágenes was a Peruvian rock/pop band conformed by the now actor Diego Bertie (vocals), Aurelio "Chifa" García Miró(drums), Dante Albertini(bass) and Hernán Campos(guitar).
The musical debut of the now actor Diego Bertie was in 1986 when he was a student of the Universidad del Pacifico, he join his class teammates Aurelio Garcia Miró, Dante Albertini and Hernan Campos,, they iniciated the band when they were in High School, and they called it Imágenes. before Diego was in vocals, the lead singer was the extremely recognized Peruvian Cheff, Gastón Acurio, he left the band because he went to Spain to study, but the other 3 members kept the band alive and Diego joined to make it real. At the end of 1986, they recorded their first song and first hit, "Los Buenos Tiempos", it was a hit during summer of 1987.
A curious thing is that Imágenes almost didn't do any concert. Their concerts can be "counted with the fingers" because for their members Imágenes was only a hobbie. The most important concert was when they opened the show to Hombres G, when the performed at Colegio San Agustín in October 1987. In August, 1988 they released their first and only LP called Nuestra Versión, which contained the hit songs "Los Buenos Tiempos", "Caras Nuevas", "Una Vez Más", "Más Humano", "Sacamos Las Fotos" and "Quién Llora". in June, 1988 they released "Caras Nuevas", their new single that also became a hit in Perú, this single had a very successful video-clip.
I was passing by the churchhouse
Just like I always do
Someone was getting married
So I peeped in to see who
Got upon a ladder
To get a better view
And bless my soul, to my surprise
My darling, it was you
That's when I cried
That's when I cried
I saw him take you for his bride
And I broke right down and cried
Now darling I forgive you
But I never will forget
Just why you didn't marry me
You haven't told me yet
I'm feeling low with someone
Who loves somebody else
I thought it over good last night
And I felt sorry for myself
That's when I cried
That's when I cried
I just couldn't keep it no more inside
So I broke right down and cried
What's done is done already
That's all there is to that
You got me so bewildered
Till I don't know where I'm at
I can't believe you're married
Can't get it through my head
And every time it crossed my mind
I wished that I were dead
Today I saw you passing
"Hello," was all I said
And bless my soul, you looked at me
And you turned your pretty head
That's when I cried
That's when I cried
I put my foolish pride aside
And I cried, cried, cried
I cried
I cried
I cried
