Luca Prodan was an italian, he went to live to England for some time and got addicted to heroin. He suffered an OD and almost die, to save him his family sent him to Argentina, where opioids weren't able available. Here he lived in the countryside in Cordoba drinking a lot of wine demijohns, where he recorded this album. He then moved to Buenos Aires where he formed Sumo, and marked Argentinian music forever, to later die of cirrhosis. This song is based on Leonard Cohen's novel, Beautiful Losers.
