Hoy Aquí

The song 'Hoy Aquí' by Rauw Alejandro is a poignant expression of yearning and desire for a past romantic relationship. The lyrics convey a deep sense of regret and longing for a lover who is no longer present. Rauw Alejandro reminisces about the last time they were together and wishes for the opportunity to continue what was left unfinished. The repetition of the phrase 'Ojalá estuvieras hoy aquí' (I wish you were here today) underscores the artist's desire to reconnect with his lost love.

The song also touches on the theme of time and its inability to heal the artist's longing. Despite the passage of time, indicated by 'ya no miro el reloj' (I no longer look at the clock), the artist's feelings remain unchanged, and the usual distractions, such as alcohol, fail to erase the memory of the loved one. The lyrics suggest a sense of urgency and a need to act on these feelings, as Rauw Alejandro contemplates seeking out his former lover.

Rauw Alejandro's musical style often blends elements of reggaeton and Latin pop, and 'Hoy Aquí' is no exception. The song's rhythm and melody create a sensual and intimate atmosphere, which complements the lyrics' emotional depth. The artist's use of vivid imagery and sensual language, such as 'Tuyos son mis labios' (Yours are my lips), adds to the song's passionate tone, making it a powerful anthem for those who have experienced the pain of a love that still lingers.
