A dinar

Happy new year! Starting by picking up where I left with a very short song in Català.
Recorded in one take, playing guitar and singing at the same time. Kinda trying to train and practice my performance and improv skills, but also it's just more comfortable for me to make and record a song this way. Even though I'm still recovering from a shitty week of coughing. This week I ended up mixing a part on 3s with a part on 4s, but wasn't easy for me.
About the lyrics, I just came back from spending quite some time with my family this winter, and one of the things that I never really thought about when it happened every day growing up, but that I find interesting now after being away from my home quite some years, is how my mom, and my grandma, really care about everyone being seated at the table before anyone starts eating.
Not that they are so strict about the "start eating" part, but they do about the "sitting" and being there when the time arrives to eat and plates are served at the table.
Specially my mom would really get seriously angry if she has to call anybody for lunch more than once.
Thus the title and the song this week, inspired by my mom and grandma:
A dinar! (catalan for Time for lunch!)
A Dinar! Va, veniu!
que el menjar se us gelarà
Ja fa rato que la taula està parada
i estic cansada de cuinar tot lo matí
PD: stop the genocide in palestine
