Keiko (song)
Keiko is a special single by Lucerito,it was dedicated to Keiko the orca that starred in the first of the three Free Willy movies. When the whale was sold to the Reino Aventura (now Six Flags México), the label of Lucerito decided to release this single due to the fame of the whale.
History
Reino Aventura ("Adventure Kingdom" in English) was an park located in Tlalpan in Mexico City. It opened to the public in March 1982 as the biggest amusement park in Latin America. Keiko was purchased from Marineland in Ontario, Canada, and was one of the new attractions aimed to improve the park. To promote the whale and the park, the park administration made a contract with Musart Records, which released a special single with two songs about the whale. Musart Records had the best selling teen singer to carry out this agreement, Lucerito.

Keiko (orca)
Keiko (earlier Siggi) (c. 1976 – December 12, 2003) was a male orca who portrayed Willy in the 1993 film Free Willy.
History
Keiko, whose name means "lucky one" in the Japanese language but is given only to females, was captured near Reyðarfjörður, Iceland in 1979 and sold to the Icelandic aquarium in Hafnarfjörður. Three years later he was sold to Marineland in Ontario where he first started performing for the public and developed skin lesions indicative of poor health. He was then sold to Reino Aventura (now named Six Flags Mexico), an amusement park in Mexico City, in 1985. He was the star of the movie Free Willy in 1993.
The publicity from his role in Free Willy led to an effort by Warner Brothers Studio to find him a better home. Donations from the studio and Craig McCaw led to the establishment of the Free Willy-Keiko Foundation in February 1995. With donations from the foundation and millions of school children, the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, Oregon was given over $7 million to construct facilities to return him to health with the hope of returning him to the wild. UPS provided ground transportation to the nearby Newport Municipal Airport in a specialized container. Before he left the amusement park, he performed for the public for the last time. Weighing 3500 kg (7720 pounds), he was transported by air in a C-130 Hercules donated by UPS. During the process of transferring him to the plane, trouble occurred but he remained unharmed.

As Syllable From Sound
by: KeikoDead air calls your name
Through hollow walls
Broken mirrors mask
Your phantom waltz
I’ll slowly close my eyes
Lament that lies within us dear
As Syllable from Sound
Is silence kindling our fears
You were at my seams
Just holding me together
Stitches pulled
We have worn into this form
I’ll slowly close my eyes
Lament that lies within us dear
As Syllable from Sound
Is silence kindling our fears
You had the darkness in you dear
Its clear that we were only here to die
Yes you and I
I’ll slowly close my eyes
Lament that lies within us dear
As Syllable from Sound
Is silence kindling our fears
