Amigos (feat. Pablo Alborán)

Maria Becerra's song 'Amigos,' featuring Pablo Alborán, is a heartfelt ode to the deep and healing power of friendship. The lyrics explore the emotional sanctuary that friends provide, especially during times of heartache and loneliness. The song opens with a contemplation of truth and the pain it might bring, but it quickly shifts to highlight the mutual support that defines their friendship. The line 'Un día te protejo a ti y tú otro a mí' (One day I protect you, and the next you protect me) encapsulates this reciprocal relationship.

The chorus, with its vivid imagery of seeing life in color and drinking in the hours like liquor, paints a picture of the joy and freedom that come from being with a true friend. The friends' escapades are described as a way to momentarily escape the world's pressures and sorrows. The repeated phrase 'Que nadie llame que no respondemos' (Let no one call, we won't answer) underscores their desire to be fully present with each other, shutting out the rest of the world.

The song also delves into the essential nature of this friendship. Becerra compares her friend to the blood in her veins, indispensable for life. This metaphor highlights the depth of their bond and the sense of incompleteness she feels in their absence. The recurring theme of curing loneliness ('Tú me curas esta soledad') further emphasizes the healing aspect of their relationship. The song beautifully captures the essence of friendship as a source of joy, support, and emotional healing, making it a relatable and uplifting anthem for anyone who values their friends.
