"The killing of children and civilians in general in the Gaza Strip, of the bombing of Israel, is inhumane and can not see a way out for both sides what they want is to kill the other," said the Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes, who previously held a press conference to announce his love for Loco Mexico tour, which will begin on 3 October in Guadalajara, Jalisco, where it will be very close to public: in an arena.
He said that in Mexico the vibe feels positive, "despite what we experienced in our countries of many contrasts, social difficulties, there is always a space for culture and music."
Analyzed that music has many functions and some people even tie their life of a subject, which sometimes accompanies loneliness. "There are songs that can even take life. A song has a basic role. I mean music, not just a song. The hierarchy, the importance of a song is substantial. This not only to hear a classic, a whole disk, a concert, playing guitar, playing the piano. That's critical because it helps to face reality. "
He has stated that he prefers to talk about music than politics, but refuses to answer questions about reality. Breach of immigration reform campaign by Barack Obama, President of the United States, and its impact on deportations of thousands of children, many of them Mexican, explained: "That's terrible! There are separate families. That's very hard for immigrants. Obama is a guy who can bring some hope, but seeing the reactions, what is happening is very late for a just reform. It was long and affected families; no pain ... it's a very hard thing. "
On the current war between Israel and Hamas and the death of children, said: "It is also very hard. What we can see in the pictures is something that frustrates me, and knowing that one side wants to see dead to the other side. There is no way to agree because it is a very old war, with religious overtones. It is very complex. Obviously, watching a child die in such circumstances, it is too hard. "
He added that the message is valid Beatle John Lennon, in the sense that all you need is love. "Corrected a little to say that love itself is not enough, because an attitude as citizens and politicians is needed. With the pillars of today's economy it is very difficult to reach an agreement. "
The Lovesick Mexico tour will cover cities like Puebla, October 5: Querétaro, 16; Torreon, 18; Tijuana, 25; National Auditorium in Mexico City, 30, and Monterrey, November 1. The presale will start on August 4 in juanes.net.
As of August 8 tickets may be obtained in general. For every ticket sold, the Mi Sangre Foundation, which is supported by Juanes, receive a contribution. The National Auditorium concert, buy tickets to the preferred section, attendees will receive a voucher to exchange for Crazy Love album.
Juanes is heard on the radio in Mexico with the single "Flower". His cd is in the Top five national radio.
In Mexico, he said, has many friends. "I have received much love over the years, since 1996, when I first came up today. It has been a very special way. Here I feel very comfortable. The tour will be a little tired, but it's work I always enjoy. We'll be there. "
For Juanes, the social function of music is still very important. "They've changed channels. Before young people going to see the Rolling Stones, The Who, but now, with social networking, is very different, because everyone has their own way of thinking. It is very different from what happened before. However, I still think music is important, even if products are ephemeral. Today not even talk about records, but a single song, that put the low, or even buy. There are many conditions that have changed, but the music will still be important. It has changed the tool. "
