Y como es el

Nicho Hinojosa's song 'Y como es el' delves deep into the emotional turmoil of a man confronting the reality of losing his partner to another person. The lyrics are a poignant exploration of heartbreak, jealousy, and reluctant acceptance. The song begins with the protagonist noticing a change in his partner, urging her to share the news he dreads. This sets the stage for a series of questions that reveal his inner conflict and pain.

The repeated question, 'Y como es el?' ('And what is he like?'), underscores the protagonist's desperate need to understand the person who has taken his place. He inquires about the new man's origins, interests, and the circumstances under which they fell in love. These questions are not just about the new man but also reflect the protagonist's struggle to come to terms with his own feelings of inadequacy and loss. The metaphor of the new man as a 'thief' who has 'stolen a piece of his life' vividly captures the sense of betrayal and the depth of his emotional wound.

Despite his pain, the protagonist shows a degree of care and concern for his partner, advising her to dress warmly and take an umbrella. This juxtaposition of care and heartbreak highlights the complexity of his emotions. He is preparing to leave, symbolized by 'preparing my luggage,' yet he cannot help but ask one more question, seeking closure. The song's emotional depth is amplified by Hinojosa's heartfelt delivery, making it a powerful narrative of love, loss, and the difficult path to acceptance.
