Que Te Parece

In 'Que Te Parece,' Gerardo Coronel, also known as El Jerry, delves into the depths of heartache and longing. The song is a poignant plea for reconciliation, where the protagonist expresses his undying love and the pain of separation. The lyrics reveal a man who is deeply affected by the absence of his beloved, to the point where he feels like he is dying slowly. The imagery of 'vaciando botes' (emptying bottles) suggests that he is trying to drown his sorrows in alcohol, but it only serves to amplify his suffering. The 'maldito recuerdo' (damned memory) of his lost love is tearing him apart, highlighting the torment he endures daily.

The protagonist acknowledges his vulnerability and the depth of his feelings, stating that his only 'pecado' (sin) was to trust his beloved completely. Despite the betrayal and the pain, he harbors no resentment and continues to love her. This unconditional love is a central theme in the song, as he declares that his heart belongs to her, even if she breaks it into pieces. The repeated refrain 'Que te parece' (What do you think) is a desperate appeal to start over, to forget the past and rekindle their love. He believes that no one else can love her as he does, and he is willing to forgive all the hurt if she returns to his arms.

The song's emotional intensity is further heightened by the promise of a future filled with 'caricias, besos y abrazos' (caresses, kisses, and hugs). The protagonist envisions a reunion where there are no complaints, only love and physical closeness. The final lines, 'No me importa mujer si tengo que morirme después de hacerte mía otra vez' (I don't care if I have to die after making you mine again), underscore the depth of his passion and his willingness to sacrifice everything for one more chance at love. Gerardo Coronel's heartfelt delivery and the raw emotion in the lyrics make 'Que Te Parece' a powerful ballad about love, loss, and the hope for reconciliation.
