Give me a minute, okay?
Here, look at this.

:24:03
What's this?
:24:05
It's a song in Spanish.
:24:06
I don't know Spanish.
:24:08
Say that word.
:24:11
Put your tongue on the roof
of your mouth, then blow air out.

:24:18
Did you feel it? Do it again.
:24:21
Say that word, "reloj".
:24:25
Perfect.
:24:31
That means:
:24:33
"Clock, don't mark the hours
because I'm going nuts."

:24:39
I know, it sounds weird in English--
:24:40
Dad, what's this about?
:24:42
It's about learning to sing in Spanish.
:24:44
I don't want to sing in Spanish.
I don't like Spanish music.

:24:48
I like Donna Summer.
That's what I like.

:24:50
You like performing?
:24:52
Yeah, Dad, I love it. It's like
you can feel them when you sing.

:24:57
It's a wonderful feeling.
:24:58
But let me tell you something
I learned the hard way.

:25:01
I don't want you to learn the hard way.
:25:04
When I was singing
with Los Dinos...

:25:07
...they started throwing
beer bottles at me.

:25:11
It sounds funny, but it scared me.
:25:14
But I did learn something.
:25:16
You've got to be who you are.
You can't change it.

:25:20
You're an American.
:25:22
So am I.
:25:23
You like Donna Summer. I like doo-wop.
:25:26
But you're also Mexican, deep inside.
:25:29
That's a wonderful thing.
:25:31
You can't be anything if
you don't know who you are.

:25:33
If you're a singer, you must sing
to people from deep inside here.

:25:38
You know what's in there?
:25:40
Your heart.
:25:44
So you're saying I must
learn how to sing this stuff.

:25:48
Remember:
:25:49
"Clock don't mark the hours
because I'm going nuts."
