I don't know if this is a love or an "anti-love song". Perhaps both. Anyway it's a catchy song. In My Throat, by Sidonie:

♫ "Es el día de la cita; ................................ It's the date today;
te he traído margaritas ................................ I bring you daisies
del jardín de mi casero. ................................ from my landlord's garden.
¡Te quiero! ................................ I love you!!

En la plaza, de repente ................................ At the square, suddenly
yo te veo entre la gente; ................................ I see you among the crowd;
me resbalo, caigo al suelo. ................................ I slip and fall on the ground.
¡Te quiero! ................................ I love you!!

Te tiendo la mano ................................ I hold out my hand to you
y te ofrezco el triste ramo; ................................ and I give you the gloomy bouquet;
te apartas un poco ................................ you move away a little
y me dices que estoy loco. ................................ and say that I'm crazy.
................................
Está en mi garganta. ................................ It is in my throat.
Está en mi garganta. ................................ It is in my throat.
Me está cortando y sangra. ................................ It's cutting me and it bleeds.
Me está cortando y sangra. ................................ It's cutting me and it bleeds.
Me ahoga el "te quiero"... ................................ It suffocates me, the "I love you"...
...que jamás podré decir. ................................ ...that I'll never be able to say.

Yo te hablo y me atraganto, ................................ I speak to you and I choke myself,
estoy temblando, quedo en blanco; ................................ I'm quivering, my mind goes blank;
tú me hablas, yo no entiendo. ................................ you talk to me, I don't understand.
¡Te quiero! ................................ I love you!!

En Las Ramblas 'ya eres mía'; ................................ At Las Ramblas, now 'I got you!';
tú has gritado "¡Policía!"; ................................ you've shouted "Police!";
me he escondido en el puerto. ................................ I've hidden myself in the port.
¡Te quiero! ................................ I love you!!

Espero la calma ................................ I wait for calm
mientras tu crucero zarpa; ................................ while your cruise ship sets sail;
agito un pañuelo, ................................ I wave a handkerchief,
digo adiós a la que quiero. ................................ I say goodbye to the one I love.

Está en mi garganta. ................................ It is in my throat.
Está en mi garganta. ................................ It is in my throat.
Me está cortando y sangra. ................................ It's cutting me and it bleeds.
Me está cortando y sangra. ................................ It's cutting me and it bleeds.
Me ahoga el "te quiero"... ................................ It suffocates me, the "I love you"...
...que jamás podré decir. ................................ ...that I'll never be able to say." ♪
