Cuando comenzamos a nacer

When you immerse yourself in Cuando comenzamos a nacer, you encounter an atmosphere that seems to capture a very particular moment. It's not just the melody, but how the piece is constructed, with a duration of 2:43 that feels just right, with no excess. It's as if the song has its own pulse, inviting you to pay attention to every detail.

This track is part of Vida, the first studio album by Sui Generis, released in 1972. The album had a notable impact, catapulting both the duo and Charly García to fame. It is said that many of their compositions became integrated into the collective imagination, to the point of being common at gatherings or sung spontaneously. The band formed at the Instituto Social Militar Dr. Dámaso Centeno, influenced by the sound of Swinging London and the people who frequented La Cueva. What began as an electric project soon transformed into an acoustic duo. It was during a tour of Mar del Plata that Jorge Álvarez recruited them for the Microfón label. In 2007, the Argentine edition of Rolling Stone recognized Vida, placing it at number 66 on their list of the 100 best Argentine rock albums.
