Twenty years after revolutionizing pop in Spanish with The torture, Shakira and Alejandro Sanz They meet again in the musical field with Kiss methe first single from the new EP of the Spanish singer, And now what?. The song not only marks an expected artistic reunion, but also plays with emotional tension, the content content and that complicity that fans have been imagining as something else.
Kiss me It is a direct love song, without Rodeos, where both artists allow us to explore a narrative loaded with sensuality, tenderness and emotional urgency. From the first verse –“If life is pretty, you and she are so similar”– Up to lines like “Not even with all Colombia coffee I take away your aroma”the song is full of images that evoke a deep, almost inevitable connection.
In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly in Spanish, Alejandro Sanz56, he explained that finding the ideal theme to return to work with Shakira was not a simple task. “She is very perfectionist. For something is number one,” he said. “We wanted something to move away from The torturebut cause the same. That he felt authentic. ”
The lyrics of Kiss me He talks about surrendering without fear, of moving forward “forward”, as the chorus sings, and leaving behind the mysteries, the rodeos, the silences. In a tone that oscillates between the romantic and the passionate, the song reinforces that artistic loop – and emotional – that it has been speculated so many times that the stage transcends.
“The good thing about being friends is that we are never going to fight. The bad thing about being friends is the obvious: that we are friends,” said Sanz, with mischief, during the interview.
Although both have been clear that theirs is a solid friendship, this new theme does nothing but envive the fire of conjectures. In one of the most suggestive stanzas, Alejandro sings: “I wrote this song and a list of pending things. The first is to make love to you urgently”and Shakira responds with a chorus that asks for kisses without thinking so much, without fear, with decision.
The musical reunion between them not only woke up nostalgia among their fans, but recently came true on stage. Alejandro Sanz accompanied Shakira at the start of his tour Women no longer cry In mid -May in Charlotte, North Carolina, where they played together the new live theme, unleashing a general ovation and thousands of comments on networks.
Kiss me It is, in short, a song that sounds reunion, nostalgia, shared matching. A new sample that, when they get together, Shakira and Sanz not only make music: they create magic.
