The Bittersweet Almond Taste of Love and Loss

The song "Sabor a Almendras" by Los del Suquia is a poetic exploration of love, beauty, and the lingering taste of loss. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a woman, likened to a solitary star among lilies, whose presence is as intoxicating and sweet as the scent of almonds. The use of natural imagery, such as the beach, the sand, the bees, and the cicadas, creates a serene yet melancholic atmosphere, suggesting a deep connection between the narrator's emotions and the natural world.

The recurring motif of almonds, which are known for their distinctive and lingering taste, symbolizes the enduring memory of the woman's kiss and the sweetness of the time they spent together. The mention of the bee flying back to its hive and the cicada crying out in deep sorrow reinforces the theme of loss and the pain of separation. The absence of the woman has left the narrator's world devoid of light and joy, as indicated by the night without a moon and stars, and the beach that now feels lonely and sad.

The song's title, "Sabor a Almendras," encapsulates the essence of the narrative—a flavor that remains as a reminder of a love that was once vibrant and alive. Los del Suquia, known for their folkloric music, often incorporate themes of nature and emotion into their songs, and this track is no exception. The blend of romantic imagery with the sensory experience of taste creates a poignant metaphor for how memories of love can linger long after the moment has passed.
