It has been three decades since my sister Cristina Villar Rosa and I were living in Bogotá when we wrote and performed this song with our good friend Catalina Hernández Benincore and filmed the video with all the amazing and talented musician friends that made part of our former band in Colombia 🇨🇴 ‘Lapizlázuli’ . Not a lot of people here in California know about my past but I sure love to tell them about my longtime adventures - Imagine being the first women indies in Colombia South America-writing our own songs and producing them in studio, recording our first album independently while at the same time managing to keep our other day jobs- -how could I not brag a little-that this experience is part of my bucket list-😊😉 😎🪶🎵for a woman Latina at the time- kind’a unheard of- and to be able to say -Lapizlázuli did it first- just sayin’ Anyhow, this song is called ‘Muñequita’ -‘ Little Doll’. It is a message of strength and beauty beyond superficialities and especially standing your ground when people underestimate you. - If I could go back in time to the end of the nineties era, I would not change a thing, as a matter of fact, I’d grab my guitar the way I still do, come up with a catchy melody 🎵 especially to smart poetry like that of my sister Cristina’s and let people know how my heart feels -‘till this moment 'cause “Life is what you make of it -and how you own it -and I choose to be grateful and thank God for every step of the way that has made me who I am today.”- Sending you love always, your indie friend
