Y un himno de fiesta
Las palmeras cantaban

my cat is complaining
That he can’t falter (oh, man)
?? 
What does that mean?
He can’t fail? Too much work hunting rats?
The way I understand the song (mi español no es bueno though 
) is that the cat can’t chill/enjoy, for according to his woman that would be faltering in his duties - woman to whom he’s only as good as the rats he hunts, which might pop out of wherever, at whatever time!

Oh, a man is valued for what he does, a women is valued for what she is.
Seems legit.

I am glad I just unilaterally ended that war.
No more hunting rats.
This cat is retired.

I understand something similar, so 
.
It is a funny addition that the one who exposes him and tells his wife is a rat/mouse 
(plus, there is the subtlety that “rata” is slang for snitch, as “rat” in english 
).

The plot thickens!
I guess the next guy can keep up the rat hunting until he gets snitched on.
A post was split to a new topic: ‘Men’ have to do , ‘women’ just ‘are’
I was going through the videos attached here. Except one or two, none of the others struck me as reflecting sensate world. Should we start a separate music thread that represents actualism, music that is not composed to evoke emotions?
Why do you think the types of music have to reflect the sensate world? Most of the songs I used to listen to I did so solely and simply to evoke emotions, it was very much about how the music made me feel rather than it as an experience. Then suddenly I found as I get felicitous and patches of EE’s I found a new level to enjoy music even more in a sensate manner. Including types of music that you might label “overly emotional”, it is just pleasurable sensation of sound for me. I just like what I like the sound of, I like a lot of different music from classical to heavy metal to pop to soul. In the same way that I enjoy the smell of petrol, the taste of chocolate or the feel of latex lol. It is just idiosyncratic to me.

Making A Song Using Random Objects - YouTube - There @Kiman, as actual as you can get for music!
On a more serious note though, this division of some music being more emotional and other music more sensate has no actual existence, it is projected. I was listening to this tune earlier on today Billie Eilish - Ocean Eyes (Official Music Video) - YouTube which you could say is very emotional and I used to experience it exactly that way.
Today listening to it though there was just a delight in the various sounds that are layered over each other, it was so wonderful to listen to and no sorrow spoiling it.
