Son de Amores

In 'Son de Amores,' 18 Kilates delves into the complex and often tumultuous nature of love. The song opens with a compassionate inquiry about the well-being of someone who has recently experienced heartbreak. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person seen wandering the streets, crying late at night, consumed by the pain of a recent breakup. This imagery sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the different facets of love, from its joys to its sorrows.

The chorus, 'Son de amores, amores que matan, amores que ríen, amores que lloran, amores que amargan,' encapsulates the multifaceted nature of love. It speaks to the various emotions that love can evoke—joy, sorrow, bitterness, and even deceit. The repetition of 'amores' emphasizes that love is not a monolithic experience but a spectrum of feelings and experiences. The song acknowledges that love can be overwhelming and even destructive, but it also holds the promise of future happiness and fulfillment.

The lyrics also offer a message of hope and resilience. The lines 'Deja de llorar y piensa que algún día un niño te dará toda una fantasía' encourage the listener to look forward to a future where love will bring joy and fantasy once again. The song advises against letting the pain of the past overshadow the potential for future happiness. It reassures the listener that they are not 'loca' (crazy) for feeling deeply and that their worth is far greater than the sorrow they are currently experiencing. This message of self-worth and optimism is a comforting reminder that time heals and that love, in all its forms, is a journey worth taking.
