Montilla, a town and municipality in southern Spain, in the province of Córdoba, 32 miles south of the provincial capital, Córdoba. As of 2003, the town had a population of 23,245. The olive oil of the district is abundant and good, and it is the peculiar flavour of the pale dry light wine of Montilla that gives its name to the sherry known as Amontillado. Montilla is the largest component of the Montilla-Moriles designated wine region. The large wineries Alvear and Gran Barquero are located in Montilla, which has an annual vendimia (wine-harvest) festival. Montilla was the birthplace of "The Great Captain," Gonzalo or Gonsalvo of Córdoba (1453-1515), and contains the ruined castle of his father, Pedro Fernández de Córdoba. El Inca Garcilaso de la Vega lived thirty years in Montilla, and the future saint Juan de Ávila lived for the last fifteen years of his life in Montilla, where he is buried. Local folkloric figures are the witches "las Camachas", mentioned by Cervantes in the "Dialogue of the Dogs". The central portion of that work is set in a convent which today contains the town hall (in Spanish, " ayuntamiento).

You will allow a low light
Will sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for love?
And who wouldn't do all of that?
Looks like I've been the sole nobody
And now I couldn't follow this
I believe, I believe now
See you a lot near the site
And to you I throw a low light
And the sight of you is so in my body
And the sight I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for me now
And who wouldn't have done all of that
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
I believe, I believe now
I believe, I believe now
The sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
