This single is the second collaboration between Spanish singer Aitana and Colombian band Morat. Released on July 30, 2020, this is a non-album single. It peaked at number 21 on the Spanish charts.
Aitana Ocaña Morales, who performs as Aitana, is a singer, songwriter and model from Barcelona, Spain. She first became known in Spain in 2017 on the Spanish reality television competition Operación Triunfo, where she was the runner-up. During the competition, she released the single “Lo malo” with fellow competitor Ana Guerra, which became a number-one hit in Spain and was certified five-times platinum. In November 2018, Aitana released her debut EP Tráiler. Two of the singles from this album, “Teléfono” and “Vas a quedarte” set records for the most-streamed song in its first twenty-four hours on Spotify Spain. Her first full album Spoiler was released in June 2019 and became her second chart-topping album. The album’s lead single, called “+”, peaked at number 2 on the Spanish charts and went on to spend 9 weeks in the top 10.
Morat is a band from Bogotá, Colombia, formed by school friends who have known each other since they were 5 years old. The band’s name comes from the surname of an ancestor of former band member Alejandro Posada, as well as from the name of the farm where the band first rehearsed, which was named “La Morat”. They saw their first international success when Paulina Rubio, interested in their song “Mi Nuevo Vicio”, chose to collaborate with them on its release. The single reached number 12 on the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay chart, reached number 1 in Spain, and was certified Platinum. They released their first studio album Sobre el amor y sus efectos secundarios in June of 2016. The album debuted at number 1 in several Hispanic countries, was certified 4x Platinum, and led to a Latin Grammy Award nomination for the single “Cómo te atreves”.
‘a veces’ – Literally translating as ‘at times’, this phrase means ‘sometimes’, ‘occasionally’ or ‘from time to time’.
‘volver a hacer’ – Literally translating as ‘to return to do’, this phrase means ‘to do again’. The verb ‘hacer’ can be replaced with any verb, and the meaning is that the action of that verb will be done again. For example, in this song we see ‘vuelvo a caer’ meaning ‘I fall again’ and ‘vuelvo a perder’ meaning ‘I lose again’.
‘conformarse’ – While the verb ‘conformar’ means ‘to form’, ‘to define’, ‘to shape’ or ‘to make up’, the reflexive form of this verb, ‘conformarse con’, means ‘to be content with’, ‘to settle for’ or ‘to reluctantly accept’.
‘los míos’ – In Spanish possessive pronouns can be used with articles to reference a noun that has already been defined. For example ‘Compramos camisas ayer. La tuya es rosa, y la mía es azul’ (We bought shirts yesterday. Yours is pink, mine is blue). Both pronouns reference the feminine singular ‘la camisa’. Here the article ‘los’ refers to the previously referenced ‘brazos’.
‘ir + gerund’ – Often we see the gerund following the verb ‘estar’ to form the present progressive, discussing actions that are in progress at the current moment. However, ‘ir’ can also be used in this manner, but with a slightly different meaning. Constructions with ‘ir’ are used when you want to stress the progression of the action, highlighting that the change is happening incrementally. It is used to indicate a gradual, steady or progressive change, similar to saying something happens ‘little by little”.
‘y de tantas estrellas ninguna / Me regalaste’ – The only reason I bring this up is to point out that here the unit of meaning is broken between two lines. What you gave (regalaste), or really didn’t give, is the stars (estrellas) from the line above.
‘a oscuras’ – When the feminine plural form of the adjective ‘oscuro’ meaning ‘dark’ is used with the preposition ‘a’, it means ‘in the dark’ or ‘in darkness’.
