Channel Cocaína Don Perignon

Loquillo Y Los Trogloditas' song "Channel Cocaína Don Perignon" delves into the contrasting worlds of glamour and disillusionment within the rock scene. The lyrics open with a critique of fellow musicians who claim to represent their generation but are disconnected from the true essence of marginalization. The term "Okeylusión" cleverly combines 'okay' and 'illusion,' suggesting that these artists live in a bubble of superficiality, believing their neighborhoods to be the epicenters of hardship when, in reality, they are far from it.

The song then shifts focus to the allure of high society, with the narrator expressing a preference for women who embody elegance and sophistication. The mention of brands like Dior, Chanel, and luxury items such as cocaine and Don Perignon paints a picture of a lifestyle steeped in opulence and decadence. This juxtaposition highlights the narrator's attraction to a world that requires time and dedication, perhaps as a form of escape from the mundane or the harsh realities of life.

In the final verse, the narrator laments the loss of authenticity in rock music, symbolized by the decline of bourbon, a classic rock 'n' roll drink, now in the hands of rock critics. The mention of highways and streets evokes a sense of longing for the freedom and rawness of American rock culture, which the narrator feels disconnected from, having been born in El Clot, a neighborhood in Barcelona. This geographical reference underscores the cultural and emotional distance between the narrator's reality and the idealized world of rock 'n' roll glamour.
