Joaquín Sabina invites us on a cheeky ride through his own myth-busting manifesto. Lo Niego Todo is the Spanish songwriter’s way of standing on stage with a giant eraser, wiping out every label the press, fans, or gossip have stuck to him: angel or devil, rebel or sell-out, hero of the streets or Dylan in Spanish. Each line is a playful “Nope, not me” that turns rumour into punchline while hinting at the messy, loveable human hiding behind the headlines.
Beneath the wit you will catch a softer confession. Sabina admits to tears at cheesy movies, tax problems, and disappointments he caused “starting with myself.” By denying everything, he actually shows everything: his irony, vulnerability, and refusal to be boxed in. The result feels like sharing a late-night drink with a friend who laughs at his own myths before they can weigh him down.
