Algo

In 'Algo,' Beto Cuevas delves into the complex emotions of a relationship that is both captivating and destructive. The song opens with the narrator admitting to losing his reason and intention to continue the relationship, yet he finds himself irresistibly drawn back by the allure of his partner's eyes. This internal conflict sets the stage for a narrative about the difficulty of breaking free from a toxic relationship, even when one knows it's for the best.

The chorus emphasizes the magnetic pull of the partner's physical attributes—her face, hair, and kisses—which make it impossible for the narrator to forget her. Despite recognizing the need to escape, he repeatedly asks her to 'sigas mejor' (keep going better), indicating a desire for her to move on and live a better life without him. This plea underscores the narrator's awareness of the relationship's detrimental effects on both parties, yet he struggles to sever the emotional ties completely.

The imagery of walking on the sea and challenging its splendor symbolizes the couple's attempt to defy the odds and the inevitable downfall that follows. The wind tempting them with the illusion of the horizon represents false hopes and dreams that ultimately lead to betrayal and heartbreak. The narrator acknowledges that when love becomes impossible, there is no reason to hold on. However, the repeated refrain of needing 'algo' (something) from his partner, even though it is 'de más' (too much), highlights the lingering attachment and the difficulty of fully letting go. The song concludes with a bittersweet acceptance that moving on is necessary, but the emotional scars remain.
