Review
In this song the singer starts wondering why humans can be so cruel, he also talks against injustice and in favor of empathy. In the chorus, he asks why we do what we do if, in the end, we can not recognize reality from fantasy.
It makes me think about what mankind does, and realize how lucky the ones that have their rights and privileges are.
Musically, it is a fast pop song, that is why I would recommend it for intermediate or advanced Spanish learners how ever the grammar is basic and useful for practicing questions and prepositions.
No explicit themes.
The video does not relate to the song much, it also shows the singer and some screens with tour images.
