Insisto

The song 'Insisto' by Ciro Y Los Persas is a poignant expression of enduring love and the pain of unrequited affection. The lyrics tell the story of a person who encounters someone who captivates their heart, described metaphorically as a 'beautiful Lucifer,' suggesting a dangerously alluring individual who has stolen the narrator's time, thoughts, and faith. This character is both enchanting and destructive, leaving a trail of sadness in the form of 'sad verses' that echo within the narrator.

The chorus of the song, with its repeated use of the word 'insisto' (I insist), emphasizes the narrator's unwavering determination to hold onto their feelings despite the passage of time and the apparent rejection. The phrase 'Nunca morirá este amor' (This love will never die) reinforces the theme of an eternal flame of love that refuses to be extinguished, even in the face of adversity. The narrator's regret over not having done more to win over the object of their affection adds a layer of melancholy to the song, acknowledging the destructive power of time which erodes all things.

Ciro Y Los Persas, known for their rock and blues influences, deliver this song with a mix of passion and sorrow. The music complements the lyrics, creating a sense of longing and resilience. 'Insisto' is a testament to the complex emotions involved in love, especially when it is not reciprocated, and the human tendency to cling to hope even when the odds seem insurmountable.
