¡Viva viernes!     (Long live Friday! In other words, TGIF!)

La fecha es el treinta (30) de septiembre del año dos mil veintidós. (The date is September 30, 2022.)

Find a dance partner or dance solo to the Peruvian couple Alejandro y Maria Laura’s calypso-style Puedo estar sin ti (I Can Be Without You).

The song highlights feeling strong and competent while a loved one is away. “Puedo estar sin ti” (I can be without you). But it also highlights the desire to not be without the other person forever. “Pero espero no tener que estarlo siempre” (But I hope not to be that way forever).

¡Bailemos y cantemos! (Let’s dance and sing!) Follow along cantando (singing) with the letra (lyrics).

¡Que tengas un viernes vigilante!     (May you have a vigilant Friday!)

L. A. Feliz
