Al toro bravo échale vacas

María Cañas


"Man is not from where he is born, but from where he grazes." Popular proverb.

There was a time (better and more fertile) when the phrase "throw cows to the bull" made sense, but today, with so much pollution and so much corruption, even the bull has lost his virility, he is so wilted that neither the cows nor the aphrodisiac sound of the cañí trumpet impale him. Eugenio Ibarzábal, Basque novelist, states: "the number of those who think that the homeland is oneself and, perhaps, a few friends is increasing". 

This video investigates with musical patriotic irony on the paradox that the brave bull is no longer brave, of the inexorable decline of the racial, because Spain, that bull skin, is becoming bald and in the bones.
