I do not need to see you (To find out)

Letter

The letter was written by Gustavo Cerati for Cecilia Amenábar . In July 1991 Gustavo gave him a letter with lyrics that later became a song, in the time that they still had a relationship at a distance and in secret.

When the first anniversary of Cerati’s ACV was fulfilled, Cecilia decided to publish it to the Editorial Profile in a manner of homage.

“If he once dedicated that to me, now he goes to me with all my love” ¹

Music

The music was composed by Gustavo Cerati with Daniel Melero .

When you start the song you hear the sound of synthesizers with mixers and the bass of Zeta, then begins the battery of Charly. Before the choir, Cerati’s guitar is heard and continues until the solo instrument ends, after which only the drum and bass are heard. Through the song you can listen to a distorted fraction of the chorus of the Come Together theme of the group Primal Scream (the promotional version of the video clip ) ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUjW82je_38 )
