Pinta Un Bosque

Maria Daniela Y Su Sonido Lasser's song 'Pinta Un Bosque' is a vibrant and assertive anthem about rejecting unwanted attention and obsession. The lyrics tell the story of a woman who is being relentlessly pursued by someone who doesn't understand boundaries. From the very beginning, the protagonist expresses her frustration with having to sneak out of her apartment and being followed everywhere, even to the cinema. This sets the stage for a narrative about the suffocating nature of obsessive love.

The chorus, with its repeated plea to 'Pinta un bosque y piérdete' (Paint a forest and get lost), is a powerful metaphor for wanting the pursuer to disappear completely. The protagonist's demand for the admirer to turn off their phone and stop sending love messages underscores the idea that love should be mutual and consensual, not forced or one-sided. The song's playful yet biting tone is further highlighted by the protagonist's sarcastic suggestion to bake a cake with cyanide instead of sugar, symbolizing her extreme desperation to be left alone.

The song also touches on the theme of personal space and autonomy. The protagonist's exasperation with the admirer’s graffiti and constant presence reflects a broader commentary on the importance of respecting others' boundaries. The lyrics 'Cómprate un mapa y ubícate' (Buy a map and find yourself) and 'Cómprate una vida y cárgala a mi cuenta' (Buy a life and charge it to my account) are witty yet poignant ways of telling the admirer to find their own path and stop imposing on hers. 'Pinta Un Bosque' is a bold declaration of independence and a call for respect in relationships, wrapped in the energetic and eclectic style that Maria Daniela Y Su Sonido Lasser is known for.
