Nuuk
Nuuk (Greenlandic pronunciation: [nuːk]; Danish: Godthåb) is the capital and largest city of Greenland. It is the seat of government and the country's largest cultural and economic centre. The major cities closest to the capital are Iqaluit and St. John's in Canada and Reykjavík in Iceland. Nuuk is the seat of government for the Sermersooq municipality. In January 2015, it had a population of 16,992, making it one of the smallest capital cities in the world by population.
Nuuk is the Kalaallisut word for "cape". It is so named because of its position at the end of the Nuup Kangerlua fjord on the eastern shore of the Labrador Sea. Its latitude, at 64°10' N, makes it the world's northernmost capital, located only a few kilometres further north than the Icelandic capital Reykjavík.
History
The site has a long history of habitation. The area around Nuuk was first occupied by the ancient pre-Inuit, Paleo-Eskimo people of the Saqqaq culture as far back as 2200 BC when they lived in the area around the now abandoned settlement of Qoornoq. For a long time it was occupied by the Dorset culture around the former settlement of Kangeq but they disappeared from the Nuuk district before AD 1000. The Nuuk area was later inhabited by Viking explorers in the 10th century, and shortly thereafter by Inuit peoples. Inuit and Norsemen both lived with little interaction in this area from about 1000 until the disappearance of the Norse settlement for uncertain reasons during the 15th century.

Nuuk is the fifth solo album from German ambient music producer, Thomas Köner. Originally released in 1997 as a part of the Driftworks 4-CD box set (along with albums from Nijiumu, Pauline Oliveros & Randy Raine-Reusch and Paul Schütze), it was re-released in 2004 by Mille Plateaux with a DVD containing films made from still images to accompany the music.

No preguntes por qué
by: NekTus ojos dejan ver la verdad
sé que llueve desde que no está
sé también que no es fácil estar solo
hay tanto que olvidar si el amor
se arrepiente y dice que se va
sin querer, el corazón
mira hacia atrás
y no hay forma de aprender
a estar vivo y no caer
tropezar
y empezar otra vez
CORO
No preguntes por qué
ya no sois los de ayer
que es un juego sin reglas la pasión
que te puedo ayudar
que te ayude a curar
las heridas que deja el desamor
si tan solo hay dolor
ya habrá un tiempo mejor
De nada sirve ya remover
las cenizas que dejó el placer
no vendrá, no repitas más su nombre
que aunque te engañes el adios
es calle de una sola dirección
se marchó
y hay que dar
cuerda al corazón
CORO
Se que estas tocando fondo
pero asómate
la ciudad te está invitando
vamos muevete
Que otros labios de mujer
te darán mañana de beber
volverás
a sentir
otra vez
CORO
