Review

The song "Ojalá" by Maria Becerra tells the story of a woman who overcomes a painful breakup and wishes that her ex-partner suffers the same as she did. The lyrics express the resentment, disappointment and indifference that she feels towards her old love, and how she has fun with her friends and with a new romantic interest. The song has a catchy and danceable rhythm, but also conveys a message of empowerment and self-esteem.

The song makes me feel identified with the situation that it narrates, since I think that many people have gone through something similar. I like how the artist weaves the story using direct and sarcastic phrases, that reflect the tone of spite and revenge that the protagonist has. I also like how she uses rhetorical questions, such as "Who arrived?" or "Hello?", to create an effect of surprise and irony.

The song does not include explicit themes, but it does have some vulgar words, such as "doll" or "karma". It could be considered a fun song, but also sad, as it shows the contrast between the past and the present of the relationship. The song has an informative tone, as it tells the facts as they happened, without embellishments or metaphors.

The video reflects the festive and liberating atmosphere of the song, as well as the contrast between the past and the present of the protagonist.
