Somos Tú y Yo

## Introduction

This was a ***SURPRISE*** song for post-Wooly Week 2020. People thought Wooly Week is over, but it's not. It was released on April 6, which is over a month later than original Wooly Week. Judging from the short duration of this video, it was probably designed for teachers to assign for e-Learning during the **Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic**. Also, like other surprise songs (such as "**Flores**" as well as all of the **Pista Picante** songs), the plot has surprises in them as well.

Somos Tu y Yo, or "We are you and me" in English, is a song about two people who float in space and sing about what happened before they were singing in the moment and the solutions they took to solve it. Thus, it uses the preterite and the present tense.

This song is meant to teach the Nosotros forms of verbs along with the present and preterite tenses.

## Plot

The video starts by showing many units and rockets in space. Then, a robotic man with his face covered in an astronaut mask begins to tell the story. He tries to share his stories about spaceships exploding and people attacking him to another astronaut who remains in a space-floating chair. A visual shows him being compressed in a plasma machine, later changing their DNA. Later, both people start to fall. When they are back together, La Invitacion starts playing. It is then revealed that the main singer turns into the boy from La Invitacion, and the other is a grown-up version of the girl from the same video. However, she rejects him right away after the boy sings the first line of La Invitacion.

## Lyrics

* ***Spanish:***
* Estamos solos.

Somos tú y yo.

* Flotando en el espacio
* Hace diez años,
* los marcianos nos atacaron.
* Nos robaron el agua,
* y destruyeron la Tierra.
* Vivimos aquí en su nave espacial.
* Robamos su tecnología.
* Su medicina cambió nuestro ADN (DNA).
* Y por eso, no vamos a morir.
* No vamos a morir..
* Somos tú y yo.
* ¿Puedes ir de pesca—
* Noooooooo.

***English:***

 We're alone.

It's you and me

. Floating in space

Ten years ago, the Martians attacked us.

They stole our water, and destroyed Earth.

We lived here in their spaceship.

We stole their technology.

Their medicine changed our DNA.

And so, we are not going to die.

We are not going to die.

It is you and me.

Can you go fishing — Noooooooo.

## Trivia

* Even though this is one of the shortest songs with a video that he has ever made (under 2 minutes), it is still ranked level 2 (as opposed to level 1) as it uses a lot of past tense and larger words.
* It is assumed that Sr. Wooly made this song all by himself as Illinois stay-at-home orders were in effect during the time he made it. This is very similar to what his plan was for making "Una Cancion Original"
* This video is a sequel to Flores (due to its structure and release) as well as a sequel to La Invitacion (due to the character appearances)
* This is the only video without any special videos except for the karaoke videos (no pop-up, ojo sabio, ojo vigilante, and FTGG as Wooly Week events were concluded before the video was released)
