The blind ones are us: One of the favourites in the Best Song Contest

Ciegos Nosotros (The blind ones are us) is one of the favourites in the Best Song Contest in this year's Vallenato Festival. Both music and lyrics are by Adrián Villamizar, and the song was sang by two blind children.

The medical doctor Villamizar is a defender of the classic vallenato and the guitar-based vallenato in particular.

In Ciegos Nosotros he attempts to show the audacity of the blind vallenato poet Leandro Díaz (who is receiving a well deserved tribute at this year's festival) as he told the world about his suffering in his now classic songs. And he attempts to show that the ones of us who have our vusual sences intact are really the blind ones, not seing all that the world really has to offer a seeing person.
