I am not a big fan of pop music, but I could become a fan of that category sometimes. This is a good example of it.
Ximena Sariñana is a Mexican singer / actress, daughter of Fernando Sariñana, director and producer of some Mexican films and she has been in some. However, her true talent is, in my opinion, composing and singing.
She started her singing career time ago with the band ‘Feliz no cumpleaños’ (Spanish for ‘Happy Not-Birthday’). Later she kept on studying music in Mexico, and then released her first solo album: Mediocre. This is the album that got me into her.
But her style is nowadays more.. “pop-ish”, filled up with glitter and happy melodies. Not my taste actually, but her very first album ‘Mediocre‘ is one of my favorites, a nice balad/jazzy sound in every melody that makes you sing along with her even when the songs are kind of depressing some times.
Here I present my favorite song from the album (hard to pick among all the songs), which is the song that gives the name to the album: Mediocre. Lyrics with translation are below 😉
