¡Hola comunidad #Hive! Bienvenidos a mi blog, soy @eduardo900613 y me encuentro participando en el Hive Open Mic Week 278. Cuyo tema esta semana es "Funny Songs", motivo por el que les traigo mi cover de la canción "La Bilirrubina", del cantante y compositor dominicano Juan Luis Guerra. Esta es una canción que me parece perfecta para la semana, por su ritmo merenguero contagioso y una letra llena de humor y color caribeño.
Me animé a hacer este tema porque, además de ser un clásico del merengue, que por cierto, me gusta mucho, pues tiene esa chispa divertida que, invita a sonreír y bailar sin parar. "La Bilirrubina" es una canción que logra destacar la genialidad lírica de Juan Luis Guerra, con un toque de lo absurdo pero encantador. La canción la conocí por mi hermano. Él se encontraba por aquellos tiempos estudiando medicina y le pareció graciosa cuando la escuchó en la radio. Esta metáfora médica, cantada de una manera tan alegre, no puede uno evitar sonreír mientras se le sigue el ritmo.

Canción de Juan Luis Guerra y 4.40 ‧ 1990
Oye, me dio una fiebre el otro día
Por causa de tu amor, cristiana
Que fui a parar a enfermería
Sin yo tener seguro 'e cama
Y me inyectaron suero de colores, ey
Y me sacaron la radiografía
Y me diagnosticaron mal de amores, uh
Al ver mi corazón como latía
Oye, y me trastearon hasta el alma
Con rayos equis y cirugía
Y es que la ciencia no funciona
Sólo tus besos, vida mía
Ay negra, mira búscate un catéter, ey
E inyéctame tu amor como insulina
Y dame vitamina de cariño, eh
Que me ha subido la bilirrubina
Ay (todo el mundo, fuerte)
Me sube la bilirrubina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Oye, me sube la bilirrubina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina (pa' arriba to' el mundo, ven)
Oh, chica
Oye, me sube la bilirrubina a mí
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Me sube la bilirrubina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina y
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Oh, chica
Ay negra, mira búscate un catéter, ey
E inyéctame tu amor como insulina
Vestido tengo el rostro de amarillo, eh
Y me ha subido la bilirrubina
Ay (todo el mundo)
Me sube la bilirrubina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Oye, me sube la bilirrubina a mí
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Cuando te miro y no me miras
Ay, cuando te miro y no me miras
Y no lo quita la aspirina
No ni un suero con penicilina
Es un amor que contamina
Ay, me sube la bilirrubina
Para este cover, quise como de costumbre, capturar un poco de esa esencia divertida, pero la magia que tiene Juan Luis Guerra es inigualable. Espero que mi interpretación les saque una sonrisa y los haga mover los pies al ritmo de este merengue dominicano.

ENGLISH VERSION (click here!)
Hello #Hive community! Welcome to my blog, I'm @eduardo900613 and I'm participating in Hive Open Mic Week 278. This week's theme is "Funny Songs," which is why I'm bringing you my cover of the song "La Bilirrubina" by Dominican singer-songwriter Juan Luis Guerra. This song seems perfect for the week, with its infectious merengue rhythm and lyrics full of humor and Caribbean flavor.
I decided to cover this song because, in addition to being a merengue classic, which I really like, it has that fun spark that makes you want to smile and dance nonstop. "La Bilirrubina" is a song that highlights Juan Luis Guerra's lyrical genius, with a touch of the absurd but charming. I learned about the song from my brother. He was studying medicine at the time and found it funny when he heard it on the radio. This medical metaphor, sung in such a cheerful way, makes you smile as you follow the rhythm.
Bilirubin
[Song by Juan Luis Guerra y 4.40 ‧ 1990](https://www.letras.com/juan-luis-guerra/163411/)
Hey, I had a fever the other day
Because of your love, Christian woman
I ended up in the infirmary
Without having bed insurance
And they injected me with colored serum, hey
And they took an X-ray
And diagnosed me with lovesickness, uh
When they saw my heart beating
Hey, they messed with my soul
With x-rays and surgery
But science doesn't work
Only your kisses, my love
Ay negra, find yourself a catheter, hey
And inject me with your love like insulin
And give me a vitamin of affection, eh
My bilirubin has gone up
Ay (everyone, loud)
My bilirubin rises
Ay, my bilirubin rises
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Ay, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't take it away
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Ay, my bilirubin rises
Hey, my bilirubin rises
Ay, my bilirubin rises
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Oh, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't cure it
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Oh, my bilirubin rises (everyone up, come on)
Oh, girl
Hey, my bilirubin rises
Oh, my bilirubin rises
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Oh, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't take it away
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Oh, it raises my bilirubin
It raises my bilirubin
Oh, it raises my bilirubin
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Ay, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't take it away
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Ay, my bilirubin rises
Oh, girl
Ay negra, look, find yourself a catheter, hey
And inject me with your love like insulin
My face is yellow, eh
And my bilirubin has gone up
Ay (everyone)
My bilirubin goes up
Ay, my bilirubin goes up
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Ay, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't take it away
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Ay, my bilirubin goes up
Hey, my bilirubin goes up
Ay, my bilirubin goes up
When I look at you and you don't look at me
Ay, when I look at you and you don't look at me
And aspirin doesn't take it away
Not even a penicillin serum
It's a love that contaminates
Ay, my bilirubin goes up
For this cover, I wanted, as usual, to capture a little of that fun essence, but Juan Luis Guerra's magic is unmatched. I hope my interpretation brings a smile to your face and makes you move your feet to the rhythm of this Dominican merengue. Thanks to the Hive Open Mic team for this opportunity to share music and good humor with the community. Enjoy this version as much as I enjoyed preparing it!
