Review

Song summary:

Antonio Vega, the author of the song, composed it in 1987 when he was still in Nacha Pop (band), and with it, he wanted to capture astrophysics, one of his great inclinations.

This song is a memory of the location of the dimensions of the human being in a cosmic environment, of the relativity between the greatness of man and his smallness in a grandiose and infinite environment. It is a play on words that leads us to think a bit about the relative game between infinity and distance.

Song emotion:

In "Lucha de Gigantes" Antonio Vega conveyed very well the greatness of the universe and narrates it like a great poet. It is not an explicit song that uses scientific terms, but it expresses his passion for great spaces, stars, and those worlds that fascinated him. Before being a musician, Antonio wanted to be an astronaut or an astrophysicist teacher and with this song, he expressed his existential dissatisfaction well since this planet was too small for him but, in turn, the universe was too big,

About the video:

There is no official video for this song but there is a video where Antonio Vega is playing the song with his guitar.
