The story behind
Here is a song that is heard on an Album called America. The song lasts five minutes and a half. It talks about a place called America, the second largest continent in the world. It stretches from the Arctic Ocean to the Diego Ramírez Islands, between the Atlantic and the Pacific. It has more than 43 million square kilometers, and houses around 12.5% of the world's population.
The lyrics describe the size and shape of the continent, as if it were a map. It talks about how it is divided into different regions, mentioning Gerardus Mercator, a cartographer who represented it. It is a song that feels like a guide, as if you were looking at a map and someone was explaining what you see.
