Ibiza

DePol's song "Ibiza" delves into the bittersweet emotions of unrequited love and the longing that accompanies it. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who has been infatuated with another person for a long time, constantly hoping for reciprocation. The protagonist spends days and nights thinking about this person, feeling the weight of their absence, especially during the summer. The repeated lines, "Pienso más de lo que debo pensar en ti" (I think more than I should about you) and "No aguanto más otro verano sin ti" (I can't stand another summer without you), emphasize the depth of their yearning and the pain of unfulfilled desire.

The imagery of Ibiza, a popular vacation destination known for its vibrant nightlife and beautiful beaches, serves as a backdrop for the protagonist's heartache. The mention of seeing the object of their affection in photos with someone else, enjoying a summer in Ibiza, highlights the contrast between the protagonist's loneliness and the other's apparent happiness. The lines "Y bailar hasta tarde / Y comernos sin hambre, y celebrar" (And dance until late / And eat without hunger, and celebrate) evoke a sense of carefree joy that the protagonist longs to share but feels excluded from.

Throughout the song, there's a recurring theme of feeling like an outsider, always watching from the sidelines as the person they love is with someone else. The protagonist's friends tell them they'll never forget this person, and they obsessively check social media to stay connected, even if only virtually. The song captures the essence of unrequited love, the pain of seeing someone you care about with another, and the hope that maybe, someday, things could be different. The repeated refrain, "Siempre estás con alguien, pero nunca soy yo" (You're always with someone, but it's never me), poignantly encapsulates the heartache and longing that define the song.
