Summary and Interpretation of the Lyrics:

"Maluma - Cosas Pendientes" tells the story of a past romantic relationship where unresolved feelings linger between the two individuals. The narrator (Maluma) observes his ex-partner at a club dancing with someone else, but when "their song" plays, she looks at him and laughs, revealing that she hasn’t truly moved on. Despite her attempts to ignore him or act indifferent, their tension is palpable. The lyrics suggest that she lies to herself and others about having forgotten him, as there are still "cosas pendientes" (unfinished business) between them. Maluma reflects on their passionate past and asserts that the emotional mark he left on her is permanent, like a tattoo. The song explores themes of lingering love, unresolved emotions, and difficulty moving on.

How Does It Make You Feel?

The song evokes a mix of nostalgia, confidence, and a touch of melancholy. Maluma’s tone is self-assured, as he acknowledges the unresolved connection, but there’s also a sense of longing and reflection on what once was. The upbeat reggaeton rhythm contrasts with the bittersweet lyrics, creating a dynamic emotional experience.

Weaving of the Story

Maluma uses vivid imagery and conversational language to convey the tension and unresolved feelings. The repetition of "cosas pendientes" emphasizes the central theme.

The story takes place in a club, a common setting for encounters with exes, which adds a layer of realism and relatability.

The narrative unfolds in the present, with flashbacks to the past relationship, creating a sense of immediacy and reflection.

The song focuses on Maluma and his ex-partner, highlighting their emotional dynamic and unresolved connection.

The story revolves around the realization that their relationship is not truly over, despite attempts to move on.

Explicit Themes:

The song includes subtle romantic and sensual themes but is not explicit. It focuses more on emotional tension than physicality.

Fun or Sad Song?

It’s a bittersweet song. While the reggaeton beat makes it feel upbeat and danceable, the lyrics delve into unresolved emotions and lingering love, giving it a melancholic undertone.

Relation to the YouTube Video:

The YouTube video features Maluma trying to seduce a woman in a club. This woman has a boyfriend yet she doesn't like him. She likes Maluma instead. Out of jealousy, some of the man's bodyguards get Maluma beat up but Maluma gets redemption after he pays all the bodyguards to be on his side.
