Review

All About TINI's "Cupido"

Story and Interpretation:

The lyrics of "Cupido" (Cupid) paint a picture of a heartbreak. The narrator is struggling to move on from a past love, despite trying to replace them with someone new ("dicen que un clavo siempre saca otro clavo pero este amor es clavo es difícil de olvidar" - they say one nail always takes out another, but this love is a nail that's hard to forget). The constant longing ("te extraño por la noche la noche me hace daño" - I miss you at night, the night hurts me) and questioning what went wrong ("que nos pasó" - what happened to us) highlight the emotional turmoil.

Feeling and Storytelling:

The song evokes a melancholic feeling, with the lyrics expressing longing and unanswered questions. TINI weaves the story through metaphors (clavo - nail, representing a past love that's hard to forget) and contrasting emotions (wanting to move on but still being stuck in the past). 

Themes and Emotions:

"Cupido" avoids explicit themes, focusing on heartbreak and the difficulty of letting go. It leans more towards a sad song, with the music reflecting the melancholic mood.

Video vs. Song:

The official music video YouTube: complements the song's theme. It portrays TINI reminiscing about the past relationship while dancing in a room with white walls. Then she changes clothes to a pink cupid custome. The video doesn't offer a literal narrative but reinforces the emotional journey of the song. It's very symbolic.
