That version was written by request as an adaptation of an Italian or French folk song with new English lyrics, specifically to be sung by Elvis in the movie Blue Hawaii. Harry James recorded a version in 1941 on Columbia 36146., and a version in English titled "No More" with lyrics by Don Robertson and Hal Blair was recorded by both Dean Martin and Elvis Presley.
German and French versions appeared in the 1860s. In the Portuguese novel O Crime do Padre Amaro ( The Crime of Father Amaro), written in 1871 by the Portuguese writer José Maria de Eça de Queirós, it is referred to as " a Chiquita, an old Mexican song". This inspired the notion that such birds bring home a final message of love from a sailor who is lost at sea. Those were most probably homing pigeons which the Persian fleet carried with them when sallying forth out of Persia for battle. The Persian fleet under Mardonius was caught in a storm off the shore of Mount Athos and wrecked, when the Greeks observed white doves escaping from the sinking Persian ships. The motif of "La Paloma" (the dove) can be traced back to an episode that occurred in 492 BC, before Darius the Great's invasion of Greece, a time when the white dove had not yet been seen in Europe. There are more than one thousand versions of this song, and together with " Yesterday" by The Beatles, is one of the most-recorded songs in the history of music it is certainly the most-recorded Spanish song. It may be considered one of the first universal popular hits and has appealed to artists of diverse musical backgrounds. Over the years, the popularity of "La Paloma" has surged and receded periodically, but never subsided. In many places, including Afghanistan, Cuba, Colombia, Hawaii, the Philippines, Germany, Romania, Venezuela, Zanzibar, and Goa it gained the status of a quasi- folk song. Very quickly, "La Paloma" became popular outside of Spain, particularly in Mexico, and soon spread around the world. Iradier was to die in obscurity within few years, never to learn how popular his song would become. In 1879, it was registered at the copyright office in Madrid as a "Canción Americana con acompañamiento de Piano". The song was written by the Spanish Basque composer Sebastián Iradier (later Yradier) around 1860 after a visit to Cuba. " La Paloma", " The Dove" in English, is a popular Spanish song that has been produced and reinterpreted in diverse cultures, settings, arrangements, and recordings over the last 140 years. Now we’re just wondering how many other secret talents are hidden in Yalitza’s family and her hometown of Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca.Ĭheck out this outstanding video of Edith singing “Paloma Negra.Problems playing these files? See media help. We’re certain that Edith’s talent will be seen by millions just as much as her sister’s. Her talent is definitely singing mariachi love songs, and she sings impressive covers of “Paloma Negra” and “Volver, Volver.” Her YouTube channel has thousands of subscribers and thousands of views. While Yalitza has expressed that her family shouldn’t be hounded for interviews or exposed via photographs, it seems as though Edith does want to share some of the spotlight. “It’s actually funny for us because it’s been me who has expressed herself in that manner the most, what she liked the most… was reading, poetry, painting… she never said she wanted to be an actress,” she said. ♥️Ī post shared by Luna Edith Aparicio Martinez on at 12:18pm PDT Los mejores momentos son siempre a tu lado hermana.
In an interview with El Universal, Edith said that her sister never imagined being an actress, because, in the eyes of their family, Edith was the one that showed interest in that creative form. It would be interesting to see how things would have turned out had Yalitza not gone, and if her sister would have been there instead. Now we’re seeing why Yalitza’s sister, Edith Aparicio wanted to be at that audition - she is a talent in her own right.Įdith is an incredible singer and has a lovely and commanding voice. Yalitza went, auditioned, and Cuarón instantly knew she would be his leading lady. Yalitza had said that because her small town of Oaxaca never had an audition, her sister wanted to be there desperately and begged Yalitza to go in her place. Yalitza has recounted the story many times about how her sister wanted to audition for Alfonso Cuarón’s film but was unable to because she was pregnant at the time. The story of how Yalitza Aparicio won the role of Cleo in Roma is one that is astonishing and serendipitous.
