Hola, Qué Tal

The Bittersweet Longing in 'Hola, Qué Tal' by Beret

In 'Hola, Qué Tal,' Beret delves into the depths of lost love and the lingering emotions that come with it. The song opens with a hesitant greeting, 'Hola, ¿qué tal?' which sets the tone for a conversation that the singer knows he shouldn't be having. This line immediately conveys a sense of regret and longing, as he admits that his life is going poorly without the person he is addressing. The phrase 'Soy un bala perdida' (I'm a lost bullet) metaphorically illustrates his aimlessness and lack of direction since the relationship ended.

The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery and metaphors that paint a picture of what could have been. Beret speaks of bringing flowers to 'lo que no fuimos' (what we weren't), symbolizing his mourning for a relationship that never fully blossomed. This act of bringing flowers to a non-existent past highlights the beauty he sees in what they could have had, even though it never came to fruition. The recurring theme of imagining different scenarios with his lost love underscores his inability to move on, as he constantly replays what might have been in his mind.

Beret also touches on the idea of parallel universes, where in another world, they are together, and he wouldn't need to write this song. This concept adds a layer of hope and fantasy to the otherwise melancholic tone of the song. The repeated line 'Eres lo mejor que he perdido' (You are the best thing I've lost) encapsulates the essence of the song, blending sorrow with a sense of gratitude for having experienced such a profound connection, even if it was fleeting. The song's emotional depth is further amplified by Beret's heartfelt delivery and the poignant, reflective nature of the lyrics.
