3) Amaru is a band formed by singer/songwriter Bobby Amaru. After recording countless songs on his own in a Jacksonville, Florida studio with his long-time friend Sam Rivers of Limp Bizkit, Bobby realized that he needed the right band members to help him spread the music. Amaru brought in Brad Stewart, formerly of Shinedown, to handle the bass guitar. Stewart has also co-written Puddle of Mudd's hit "Control", and Shinedown's Rock/Top 40 hit "I Dare You". "I Dare You" was covered by Chris Daughtry and aired nationally on "American Idol". They then recruited guitarist Stephen Carey of the Jacksonvilled-based band "Shadow Agency" to handle all of the guitars.Their search for a drummer seemed to be the hardest part, but after countless auditions, local musician Jonathan Fowler turned out to be the perfect guy for the job. Only being a band for 5 months they competed to play mainstage for the annual planetfest show that is held in jacksonville every year. Out of 60 local bands Amaru was picked by the station to open the show in front of 10,000 people. They were also asked to join "The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus" for their april acoustic tour with no label support. Since then they have gained press, new fans, and the shows are getting larger.
4) Amaru is a one-man electronica project with African and tribal influences, as well as forays into dark ambience, based in Brighton in the United Kingdom. As of yet only a 7 part EP has been produced, though each part flows into the next creating the impression of one long song.
5) Amaru is an Andean folk band from Peñalolén, Santiago de Chile. Formed in 1992 and active until the late 2000's, when internal struggles kept delaying the release of new albums. Throughout their career, they went on international tours, one in Ecuador and one in China, As of 2023, they are active only in concerts and live recitals. One of their members, Ramón Castillo Gaete (voice, clarinet, quena, zampoña), would gain later fame for leading a religious sect in Colliguay that performed a human sacrifice on his newborn son.

Amaru Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
¡Ay! Mi negra, mi negra suerte
Otra más que se me va
¡Ay! Mi negra, mi negra suerte
No busco amores ardientes
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
¿Qué más me puede pasar?
¡Ay! Mi negra, mi negra suerte
¿Qué más me puede pasar?
¡Ay! Mi negra, mi negra suerte
No busco amores ardientes
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
No busco amores ardientes
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
Loco de amor
Yo por vos y tú por él, llorando de amor
Loco de amor
Yo por vos y tú por él, llorando de amor
No busco amores ardientes
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
No busco amores ardientes
Solo cambiar esta suerte
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
Loco de amor
Yo por vos y tú por él, llorando de amor
Loco de amor
Yo por vos y tú por él, llorando de amor

Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti (¡Hey-hey-hey!)
Bailando Saya, bailando Saya por ti (¡Hey!)
The song "Loco de Amor" by Amaru seems to be about a man who has lost several women in his life due to his bad luck. The lyrics express his frustration and desperation to change his luck by finding love again. He sings about his "negra suerte," which in Spanish means "black luck," and how it seems like nothing can go right for him. The repetitiveness of the line "no busco amores ardientes, solo cambiar esta suerte" (I'm not looking for passionate love, just to change my bad luck) reinforces this idea.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "loco de amor" (crazy in love), suggesting that despite his bad luck and past heartbreak, he is still willing to love deeply and passionately. He acknowledges that the woman he loves may not feel the same way and may be in love with someone else ("yo por vos y tu por él"), but he can't help feeling the way he does.
The mention of "Saya" in the lyrics is interesting because it is a traditional Afro-Bolivian dance style. It adds a cultural element to the song and could be interpreted as the singer seeking solace and escape in his culture's music and dance.
Overall, the song portrays a man who is desperate for love and for a change in his luck, but who still believes in the power of love and is willing to embrace it fully.

Desde el otro lado del Atlantico en Camerún 🇨🇲 escucho esta Musica. Me Encanto la Saya Boliviana 🕺 💃
@wilfredobalboa7206
este ritmo tiene raices africanas
@felizasanches4646
Sólo para aclarar. No es Saya ( la saya pura es diferente, es otra danza representativa de la comunidad afroboliviana), es Saya Caporal.
Nos llena de orgullo que sea de su agrado. Saludos
@CAPORALORIGEN1825
@Feliza Sanches la saya es Boliviano es afroboliviana de hay nace el caporal o en conjunto saya caporal 100% Boliviana
@CAPORALORIGEN1825
@Feliza Sanches lo que bailan los peruanos es algo que existía ya en Bolivia y la nombraron igual
@felizasanches4646
@CAPORAL ORIGEN si.... Pero acordate que el Caporal es una fusión nueva que, obvio, tiene Saya.... Mas, no la Saya- afro original en su totalidad: esta más presente en la música e ritmo, por ello "saya caporal" como "Tundique caporal" o "Tuntuna caporal").Te sugieró que escúches Saya afroboliviana (como Sayanta o Yareta, etc 😉). Espero que comprendas lo que quiero decirte. Saludos 🖐
