Review

  • The song “Prometo” by Pablo Alboran is a romantic ballad that expresses the singer’s desire to rekindle his relationship with his lover. He promises to forget his past mistakes, to give back the happiness he took away from her eyes, and to make their love eternal. He also wants to escape from the noise and chaos of the world and enjoy their intimacy. He says they will be in the news for having loved each other despite the disaster.

  • The song makes me feel hopeful and sentimental. It shows that the singer is willing to do anything to save his love and that he values it more than anything else. It also conveys a sense of nostalgia and regret for what they have lost.

  • The artist weaves the story by using poetic imagery and metaphors. He compares their love to a child’s play, a tango in the salon, a forest in the night, a fight of kisses, and a canvas of colors. He also contrasts their love with the negative aspects of life, such as pain, gray goodbyes, scars, failure, confusion, noise, and disaster.

  • The song answers the following questions:

    • He wants to be the one who loved her like a child’s play, to heal their love, to rip out the gray goodbyes from the calendar, to forget his scars, to move from failure and confusion to the silence street, and to become eternal.
    • He wants to be with her in their bedroom, in the salon, in a forest in the night, and in a canvas of colors.
    • He wants to wake up with her like before, to dance their tango in the salon, to be in the news in the afternoon, and to not let the years pass.
    • He and his lover are the main characters of the story. He also mentions those who do not look them in the face, the poets of empty words, and those who do not know how they loved each other.
    • He wants to bring back the green of her look, to dry off the pain that drenches them, to breathe what is left to them, to give back what he stole from her eyes, and to make her beauty spots with colors.
  • The song does not include explicit themes. It is a tender and respectful song that does not use vulgar or sexual language.

  • The song is a sad song that reflects on the difficulties and challenges of maintaining a long-term relationship. It also expresses a longing for simpler and happier times.

  • The song relates to the YouTube video by showing scenes of Pablo Alboran singing along a set of very talented musicians.

  • You can follow Pablo Alboran on his social media accounts:
