Santeria (song)
"Santeria" is a song by American rock band Sublime on their 1996 album ''Sublime''. The song was released as a single on January 7, 1997. Despite the fact the song was released after the death of lead singer Bradley Nowell, Santeria along with "What I Got" are often considered the band's signature songs.〔https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/sublime/id63480〕
==Composition and context==
The song includes the bassline and guitar riff from Sublime's earlier song "Lincoln Highway Dub" off the 1994 album ''Robbin' the Hood''. Santería refers to the religion practiced in the Caribbean in which Yorùbá orishas are syncretized with Roman Catholic saints.
The song tells the story of a jealous ex-boyfriend who is planning to take revenge on the man who stole his girlfriend. The man then decides to find a new girlfriend, instead. However, the man then mentions using violent force as he speaks of "popping a cap in Sancho" and "putting that barrel straight down Sancho's throat" if he ever sees him again. The lead singer of Sublime, Bradley Nowell, refers to the man as "sancho" and his ex-girlfriend as "heina."〔http://www.metrolyrics.com/santeria-lyrics-sublime.html〕 In Mexico, a man who steals another man's girlfriend is often referred to as "sancho"〔http://onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/sancho〕 while a man's woman or girlfriend is referred to as "heina," which is adapted from the Spanish word "reina," meaning queen in English.〔http://onlineslangdictionary.com/meaning-definition-of/heina〕
Nowell died shortly before the release of this song from a heroin overdose.
