Caminando (Rubén Blades song)


"Caminando" is a 1991 song by Rubén Blades and his band Son del Solar, written by Blades. It is also the title track and one of three singles from Caminando, a 1991 album which saw Blades briefly return from fusion styles to purer coro-driven salsa. The song has been covered by many artists Coque Malla on Canta a Rubén Blades. The 1991 song in 1994 became Blades' signature tune on his foray into Panamanian politics co-founding the Papa Egoró party.
The lyrics of the song commence: "Caminando, se aprende en la vida / Caminando, se sabe lo que es / Caminando, se cura la herida / Caminando, que deja el ayer".
The single was released as 7" on Columbia, and as a 12", 33 ⅓ RPM with Caminando 4:53 remixed by Javier Garza and Pablo Flores.
