Mis Posibilidades (Interstellar)

Enrique Bunbury's 'Mis Posibilidades (Interstellar)' delves into the concept of parallel universes and the infinite possibilities that life offers. The song opens with a reflection on the past, where the artist describes his existence as both permanent and distant. This duality sets the stage for a journey towards extinction, hinting at the inevitable end that all beings face. However, Bunbury challenges this notion by introducing the idea of parallel universes, suggesting that even in the face of extinction, there are endless possibilities and alternate realities where one can continue to exist.

The recurring line, 'Mis posibilidades son universos paralelos, aunque me vaya siempre vuelvo,' emphasizes the cyclical nature of existence and the belief that departure is never final. This line can be interpreted as a metaphor for resilience and the human spirit's ability to endure and return, no matter the circumstances. The advice to 'dejar la luz encendida' (leave the light on) serves as a beacon of hope and guidance, encouraging listeners to remain optimistic and open to the myriad possibilities that life presents.

Bunbury also touches on the theme of personal responsibility, stating that he is only accountable for what he writes and says, not for how others interpret his words. This highlights the importance of self-expression and the subjective nature of understanding. The song's repetitive and almost hypnotic 'Narana, narana' chant adds a mystical and otherworldly dimension, reinforcing the idea of exploring beyond the known and embracing the unknown. Through 'Mis Posibilidades (Interstellar),' Bunbury invites listeners to ponder the vastness of existence and the endless opportunities that lie within parallel universes.
