Review
Shakira expresses great sorrow for how his former couple treated her in this song. He was an expert at lying and convincing her. She accepts no apologies nor excuses from him. She tells all she expected from him and how profoundly disappointed she feels.
It is a slow, deep and emotional song.
The video is black and white, and we can see Shakira at a factory. There are scenes of her singing in front of the camera. Even at one point, she starts to cry. In the end, she wears a pair of butterfly wings and tries to fly, but she can not do it.
For beginner Spanish learners, it is very easy to understand and follow.
