Pretty much deserving of its own thread. The lyrics and subtitles spoils the series if you haven't seen it because I Haven't caught up with Breaking Bad still a couple episodes in on Season 1 but does that band make an appearance on the show in particular? Excuse my ignorance but how long have they been in the game? It's also probably not a good idea to watch the show last night with spoilers in all, so some stuff just flew by me. <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/FLaWiUWEX1k?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/FLaWiUWEX1k?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
That band performs that song at the beginning of season 2 or something. It wasn't a spoiler at all. The only thing you spoiled for yourself was the Dean Norris part.
Here's more of a verbatim translation, going along with what they're saying, so it is easily more understood by you gabachos... I sort of started disagreeing with the subtitles: The city is named Duke, New Mexico is the state. Among gangster people their fame has propagated because of a new drug that these white people have created. They say it's blue and that it is pure quality, that powerful drug, that circulates in the city, and the bosses of the Plaza couldn't even stop it. The cartel is madly hot because they were disrespected. They talk of a certain 'Heisenberg' who the market now controls. Nobody knows anything of him, because no one ever has seen him. From the fury of the cartel, no one has ever escaped. That 'dude' is now dead, but no one has ever told him. The fame of Heisenberg has now reached Michoacán. From there they all want to come to taste that crystal [meth] That blue material has become international. The cartel is madly hot because they were disrespected. They talk of a certain 'Heisenberg' who the market now controls. Nobody knows anything of him, because no one ever has seen him. The cartel should be respected, and has never forgiven anyone. That 'dude' is now dead, but no one has ever told him. If you know Spanish, compare their translation to mine.
If you've seen any ads for the show, you know that Walt becomes a big deal at some point. This song opens the 7th episode of the 2nd season. Not all of the stuff they sing about even happens in that episode. They are kind of setting the stage for what's to come. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/BUmpTKXpIdM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Is this deserving of its own thread? It should at least say in the title breaking bad spoilers, not just spoilers.
Well, in all fairness for the fans of the show; I think they get the reference. But yeah, breaking bad spoilers so beware folks.
So, what's the story with the eye-rolling at my translation? Did you not want it to be more exact or proper? Did you not agree I should have even posted my translation for it? What is it?
No bro, I was being sarcastic that maybe you should be a translator on Conan show. I and the rest of us non speaking of Spanish appreciate you for translating this song though.:grin:
I'm a breaking bad fan who has seen every episode multiple times, and the title didn't click right away.
No, you don't, you liar. You didn't like me posting the translation and thought "OMG, why must you correct everything??!? Ugh"... didn't you? You're lying to yourself if you say no. Admit it. I'm not a fan of the show, nor have I seen an episode, but I think Spanish should be translated properly.
Well then you might need to watch it again. kidding/ kidding. You got me Mr. Swoly-D, you got me. Yeah I'm only a couple episodes in on season 1, and I have no idea if I'm ever going to finish the series, 5 season/ damn!!!
