The World Plays Here

Larry Hans

Released on September 1, 2026

Eight tracks released on the same day, one in each language. They are not eight translations of one song: each is written in its own tongue, with its own rhyme, slang and local joke.

A commission from Zarza Radio

Zarza Radio broadcasts in eight languages and commissioned one track for each. The point was not to do the minimum, but to do everything with excellence: that is why these are eight songs that stand on their own, with the same production and the same mastering as anything else this artist has signed. Zarza Radio.

The same story of love and heartbreak happens in eight different cities, and in none of them does it sound translated. They share structure, tempo and production; what changes is the language, the joke and the way of saying «here».

They are not an album and they announce nothing. They are a professional job delivered, and they are here because this site is the record of what has played on the world’s airwaves in this artist’s voice.

Frequently asked questions

The things people ask most about this page. If something is missing, write to the address in the footer.

What is “The World Plays Here”?

A set of eight Larry Hans singles released on 1 September 2026, one in each language: Spanish, English, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese and Arabic. They were written and produced on commission for Zarza Radio, the network that broadcasts in those same eight languages. They are not an album: they are eight singles released on the same day.

Are they eight versions of the same song?

No. They share structure, tempo and production, but each is written in its own language, with its own rhyme, slang and local joke. The French one does not say “sounds”, it says the world vibrates; the German one inverts the title and puts “here” first; the Japanese one refuses to rhyme on purpose; the Arabic one is written in qafiya, the classical monorhyme. A translation would have produced eight correct texts and no native one.

Why a dance track after an album about the Virgin?

Because they are two different things and neither is disguised as the other. “La Virgen de Nazaret” was a personal promise; this is a professional commission from a radio network broadcasting in eight languages. The artist explained it in the statement titled “Perdón”, in the newsroom of this site.

Who commissioned these eight tracks?

Zarza Radio (zarza.com), a music network broadcasting in eight languages. The brief was one track per language, not one song translated eight times. It is stated openly on every page, because the brand is sung inside the song itself: hiding it would make no sense.

Can they be heard in full?

Yes. All eight are on Spotify, Apple Music and the other digital stores, and each track page carries its player and its links. The full lyrics are also published here, in the language they are sung in.

What languages are the lyrics in?

Each track is written and sung in a different language, and the lyrics are published as they are, untranslated: they are the work. The site pages do exist in all eight languages, so you can read the Arabic lyrics from the German page, but the lyrics stay Arabic.

Will Larry Hans release more music?

No more music is planned. These eight tracks are a commission fulfilled, not the start of anything, and the album “La Virgen de Nazaret” was a promise that has been kept. The artist still practises law; this site is a record of what exists, not an announcement of what is coming.

Where can they be heard or bought?

On Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and the other digital stores. Each track has its own links on its page, and its own published UPC and ISRC, which is what a broadcaster or a collecting society needs to identify them.

Can this music be used on a radio station or in a video?

The tracks are registered and distributed like any other commercial recording, with their UPC and ISRC, and their use follows the same rules: broadcasting and synchronisation require the corresponding licence. For any enquiry, the contact is in the press kit.

Are the full lyrics on the site?

Yes, all eight, complete, and there is also a printable sheet per track with the lyrics on bone paper. What is not published is the production material: studio directions are not the work and there is no reason to read them.

A gift from the artist

All ten lyrics, in one booklet

Before you go: there is a special edition of La Virgen de Nazaret prepared only for the people who pass through here. All ten complete lyrics, in a booklet laid out to print and bind, with the dedication written for each song and Larry Hans's signature.

The address is kept in case there is ever a second album to announce. Nothing else is sent, it is never passed to anyone, and unsubscribing takes one line of reply.
