The chapter presents, from the field of Translation Studies, a perspective of the translation strategies used when translating pop music lyrics from Italian into Spanish, focusing in music from the 60s. First the chapter will look at the translation techniques and then go to study the social and cultural features which furnish the cultural background of Spain in the 60s. Finally drawing on a number of paratextual elements present in the target text we shall study the effect of the Spanish versions of the Italian songs.
