Almásy: Could I have a cigarette? Hana: [laughing] Are you crazy? Almásy: Why... why are you so determined to keep me alive? Hana: Because I'm a nurse.
Always when I write my music, I take my guitar, and I improvise always with a melody, you know, lyrics in Spanish. But sometimes I use some words in English. I don't know why. Maybe because I listen to a lot of music in English.
I learned English at school, or at least that's how it started. Also, in Holland - as opposed to some other European countries - we don't dub anything, so as a kid growing up, always watching English and American movies in their original language rea...
