Review

Story in the lyrics.

The song is about passion. It's about how one person cannot live without his or her partner. It's about how life goes fast and we can be here in a given moment and gone in the next one. For me, it is a testament of passionate love, and how we're able to let someone go when we truly love her/him.

How does it makes me feel?

It arises certain nostalgia in me. It also makes me feel deeply into it all. It's quite immersive. Likewise, the artist really knows how to transmit emotions such as sadness, heartbreak, and pain which really mad themselves present throughout the song.

Does it have explicit themes? Is it a fun or sad song?

It has certain insinuating references that are typical of latin music, yet I wouldn't characterize them as explicit, but more as daring and romantic. This song is a sad song, a bit emotional.

How does the song relate to the Youtube video? What is going on in the video?

The video is about a couple. The guy (played by J. Balvin) has a car accident but his spirit stays on earth because he cannot live without his partner. The woman was pregnant before the accident and has a daugther eventually. 4 years later, the guy still watches over his family and sabotages the new relationships that his girlfriend builds. Nevertheless, the guy realizes that the happiness of his girl goes first, and lets her go at the end of the video.

The lyrics are about how at the end of the day a couple stays together no matter what. So, that's how the video and the song relates, because the video's main characther  cannot let go of his girlfriend.
