Fun facts
La Unión released «Sildavia» on their first album, Mil siluetas, which came out in 1984. The song is written in a rare language, a mix of Portuguese and Spanish, and feels like a travel story. The lyrics talk about a place that doesn't exist, but that seems real. The music is soft, with instruments that move as if they were alive. It's a piece that takes you to another world, without needing to leave home.
