Santana - Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile)

[@ramirocquirozjr5179]

This makes me cry I remember my daughter Angie she passed away away on march 19 2023 her birthday is June 10 I miss you so much my pumpkin ❤

[@KCFlyer2]

People who think this an instrumental are wrong...that guitar sings better than any voice. Carlos Santana is a gift to us all.

[@nancyearambula]

We were planning on having this as our first dance song, but then we couldn't find a church that would marry us. We were told we were too young and the marriage would never last... that was 44 years ago. We never had a wedding, but we've enjoyed a great marriage. We both still LOVE this song.

[@jamesstuck6379]

The song makes me think about my mom because we're crying on Earth and she's smiling in heaven

[@musicinstrumentsandothers1943]

My father is in heaven too and I think about him

Europa I had this tune downloaded on my MP3 player back in the day. I downloaded It from my computer off a CD. Those were the good ole days.

[@jessicacampos8686]

It is a beautiful instrumental, I’m in my 50’s and to this day, I am blown away by this piece. It is a real testament to my inner teenage angst.

[@davidfarris894]

WELL SAID THIS IS MUSIC AT ITS VERY BEST VIVA SANTANA!!

[@christinatercha4180]

This song is beautiful, brought a tear to my eye, makes me think about how Earth is crying right now because of all the bad things going on but Heaven is smiling at all the good things like people realizing finally what is most important in the world is to enjoy your family and friends and life, slow down & enjoy your people 💖☮️

How many times did we slow dance to this song?... can't remember 😌 A thousand times i guess so! Amazing slow dance 👌

[@rPena18]

It’s been a year since I lost you Great Grandfather I will always love you and you made me the strong man I am today. You were the only one that believed in me more than my own self. I will always miss you everyday. Hopefully I see this comment later in life to remind me of you.

[@winnerkatt]

This is exquisite silky wine for the soul. A spiritual trip into the depths of the inner soul. Nothing else needs to be said.

[@nicolaemarian7009]

If we want to look for the most beautiful piece in Santana's repertoire, the thought automatically takes us to Earth's cry heaven's smile ... the subtitle is meaningful ... so is the Earth we are weeping Heaven's smile ... is a song for angels not for all of us who are sinners .... it is a proving for us that fortunately there is a SANTANA and a masterpiece called EUROPA .... when I listen (I did that many or over the last 40 years) crying ....

[@anthonyperos8539]

I love you! #:)

Santana live in South America has such synchronised sound that it is goosebumpy. Incredible Carlos still is.

Me hace pensar de regreso en los 70/80 cuando tenía 21 años y esa canción siempre la escuchaba era como mi himno de presentacion😊😂😂😂❤❤

honestly, why on earth would people dislike this song? This song is absolutely incredible. I actually found this song recently. I was sitting down, scrolling through Spotify. I came across a playlist and this song just so happened to be in it. When I first heard this song, I instantly regretted not listening to it sooner.

[@Nako3]

Because people dont like when something is perfect. And I kind of agree. Nothing should be perfect and seeing a score of lets say 5000 likes and 0 dislikes makes it look like its perfect so thats why they dislike it. xD

Still hard down here, you took a piece of me when you left this earth. I didn't lose just a grandfather but a dad as well. Your smile could brighten anyone's day, your laugh could cheer anyone up...I miss you. Every time I play this song I just know that you'd be here laying back and rocking to the beat like you always did. I love and miss you gramps. The best grandfather/Father I could ever have in my life.

Much love to Santana and all lovers of his music! ❤️

Funny story. In the late 70s I had a female best friend. Then one afternoon, out of curiosity, we decided to go past the friend stage just once. She was petite and at the height of the act she was hitting High Cs with her voice. On my drive home, Europe came on the radio. I suddenly understood the song! Those same High Cs are in the song Europe at the height of the song (listen for it yourself). I now realized that the whole song is very Freudian. It starts out slowly and builds to an orgasm. Then slows down to an "afterglow". You almost end up tired and spent emotionally at the end of the song.

La première fois rêvée

[@susannavaccaro794]

Grande chitarrista ,ha fatto unire e lavorare insieme non solo i grandi artisti, ma ha fatto emergere anche i giovani..un pò sbandati,nelle strade della miseria e guerre idiote cover West side story.. Non m' interessa sè è perfetto o no ma lo è stato il suo impegno nel sociale Mentre cresceva dava spazio anche agli altri e voglio ricordare inoltre ,il centro antiviolenza che aveva fondato ,per accogliere donne e bambini in grave difficoltà. Non ha fatto forse grande risonanza ma parte del suo guadagno lo aveva devoluto lì,tra la sua gente meno fortunata. Ha fatto in pratica e non in teoria ☺️chiacchere e distintivo,quello che poteva fare,prima vicino a se. Già questo me lo fà alzare di livello " umano" . Se suona bene ancora meglio.! Non a tutti è dato il dono della parola,talvolta basta un talento per comunicare .🎸🎵 🌬️💓💓💓✌️

*This* Heavenly *song is* by definition *the love itself* that was just formed acoustically, *it is* the true meaning and making of *sex* (this one kind that arose only by pure love.. again), and finally, *it's the ultimate form of* perfect *communication between two people* in love with one another, of course not by talking.. but each one of two by just looking passionately at each other's eyes.. totally silent, totally speechless! 🙂 This very song is, and means, perfection!!! ❤🌹🤍 😌

Carlos Augusto Santana Alves is an American guitarist who rose to fame in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band Santana, which pioneered a fusion of Rock and roll and Latin American jazz. One of his instrumental masterpieces, "Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile)", was frequently played on Sapul!, TV5's first ever morning show created by Luchi Cruz-Valdez and Patrick Paez, if Shawn Yao wored every sexy mini dress and mini skirts and seduces any of the male Sapul! Hosts, which was often danced by Jun Sabayton, Jr. The January 19, 2011 episode of Sapul! Was the last time "Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile)" played on Shawn Yao, who wored a sexy red spaghetti strap laced mini dress, as she was sacked due to the axing of the Sapul! Blindeye segment, and also the final day of the Makatayaw duo
