Review

The lyrics dissect the pain of a failed reconciliation where the partner's abrupt departure ("fue cómo te fuiste") after earnest promises ("Tanto prometiste en el segundo intento") deepens betrayal. It frames heartbreak not around the breakup itself, but the whiplash of hope and abandonment in a "second attempt" that lasted "tan poco tiempo."  

Aitana crafts visceral vulnerability through breathy vocal fragility that fractures into soaring anguish, mirroring emotional whiplash. Minimalist piano verses contrast with explosive percussion in the chorus, sonically mapping the journey from fragile trust to disillusionment. The storytelling zooms in on quiet moments—whispered vows, sudden exits—making intimate betrayal universally palpable.  

No explicit language, but mature themes of broken trust and emotional whiplash dominate. The tone balances wounded melancholy with sharp clarity—sadness dissected with surgical precision rather than wallowed in.  

Aitana's "Segundo Intento" video unfolds beneath a roaring highway—a gritty, shadow-drenched underpass where concrete pillars frame her emotional reckoning. She begins crumpled on a cold slab ("Tumbada viendo el techo / Sin ti en mi cama"), then erupts into fierce choreography with black-clad dancers, their stomping syncopated to lyrics of betrayal ("No fue que te fueras, fue cómo te fuiste"). Outfit shifts amplify the narrative: a blood-red fringed jacket swirls like a warning during the bridge, while later, a flag-print crop top and skinny jeans declare reclaimed autonomy. Surreal contrasts heighten the tension—a sterile office materializes on the overpass wall, mocking hollow promises ("Tanto prometiste en el segundo intento"), as indifferent traffic streaks behind chain-link fences, mirroring time’s cruel march. The video closes with Aitana standing tall where she once lay broken, the highway’s hum echoing resilience over ruin.
