A record that reflects the duality of life
Lídia Pujol, a prominent voice of Barcelona music, released his album ‘Babel: of the manure and flowers’ last year, a work that fuses beauty and mystery in sixteen captivating compositions. This record, edited by Satélite K, is the result of a creative process in the Terroella de Montgrí space, where the singer collaborated with talents such as Dani Espasa, Òscar Roig, and Miquel Àngel Cordero.
A message of resistance and hope
Recently, Pujol presented the video of ‘We will do the revolution and we will do it again’, an adaptation in Catalan of one of the emblematic themes of Tracy Chapman. The lyrics, worked by Bel Olid, Gerard Quintana, Teresa Forcades and Pujol himself, is a manifesto of struggle and hope, with the artist emphasizing that ‘it is a cry of resistance, an invitation to join for a more equitable world ‘.
Portrait of social reality
With a deep interpretation, Pujol evokes the experiences of the people who are trapped in the long queues of social dining rooms and who fight unemployment. His voice resonates strongly when he states: ‘There is already a revolution. It’s time for the wheel to start turning. ‘ This song is not only a reminder of current struggles, but it is also a tribute to the community struggling to improve living conditions.
Art as ethical commitment
The album ‘Babel’ is not only a musical album, but also an exploration of the two sides of life: light and darkness. Through his songs, Pujol invites us to reflect on the influences of figures such as Ramon Llull and Emily Brontë, showing that music and ethics go hand in hand. As she says, ‘art cannot be separated from kindness’.
A canvas for reflection
In an exclusivity for Cloud, the video of Pujol’s song is now available for all music lovers on YouTube. His work seeks not only to entertain, but also inspire the action and reflection on the world around us. ‘Perseverar is our obligation,’ concludes Pujol, ‘The real death is to live without fighting’.
