Before he graduated from Jorge Tadeo Lozano's University with a publicist degree, singer/songwriter Carlos Vives joined different bands and participated in several plays. In 1982, the artist got a role in the Colombian TV series Tiempo Sin Huella, starting his successful acting career, later extending his professional skills to the Puerto Rican television. After forming a band called La Provincia, the singer and guitarist began performing a local style known as Vallenato, successfully touring his native country and South America. In 1994, Carlos Vives' "La Gota Fria," became his first smash, climbing on the most important music charts around Latin America. In 1996, under the slogan of Unete A Los Locales (Join the Local Ones), the talented musician created his own label, called Gaira, to promote and give an incentive to local artists.

El Pirata De Loperena Lyrics
Carlos Vives
No te extrae que yo me haya desterrado
y no camine por el barrio Loperena (bis)
te juro! que vivo como el pirata
rondando, la muralla eCartagena (bis)
Garantizo que ningn hombre resiste
esta gran pena que me viene atormentando
y por eso, le voy a ped a Molina
que pinte, este corazn sangrando (bis)
Porque si quieres una prueba de amor
nadie te la da mejor
para que veas como es que sangra una herida
te la va a pint Molina
Ay! Para ver si te condueles
de este corazn Mercedes
Como el 9 de Septiembre cumples aos
Yo quisiera regalarte muchas cosas
al cielo! le voy ped la nube ms hermosa
paponertela en la mano (bis)
Hace un ao que en pueblo de Manaure
T me juraste que tu amor era sincero
mentira! Porque ya t me olvidaste, vida ma
y yo todava te quiero (bis)
