Dos X Tres (feat. Roy Borland)

Sebastián Cortés' song 'Dos X Tres,' featuring Roy Borland, delves into the emotional turmoil of feeling invisible and unrecognized in a relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who is physically present but emotionally neglected, questioning their significance and the state of their relationship. The repetition of the phrase 'Cada dos por tres' (which translates to 'Every now and then') underscores the sporadic acknowledgment and the inconsistency in the attention they receive from their partner.

The song opens with the protagonist reflecting on their current state, feeling lost and unsure of what has gone wrong. The lines '¿Cuánto llevo aquí senta'o? / ¿Dónde está lo que dejé?' suggest a sense of disorientation and a longing for something that has been lost. This is further emphasized by the admission of engaging in behaviors like drinking and smoking, which are out of character for the protagonist, indicating a coping mechanism for their emotional distress.

As the song progresses, the repeated plea 'Mírame, mírame / ¿No ves que estoy junto a ti?' highlights the desperation for recognition and validation from their partner. The use of the word 'Bonjour' adds a touch of irony, as it is a greeting that signifies acknowledgment, yet the protagonist feels anything but acknowledged. The song captures the essence of feeling unseen and the frustration that comes with it, making it a poignant reflection on the complexities of human relationships and the need for emotional connection.

The collaboration with Roy Borland adds depth to the song, as his voice complements Cortés' emotive delivery, enhancing the overall impact of the lyrics. 'Dos X Tres' is a powerful exploration of the pain of invisibility and the yearning for genuine connection, resonating with anyone who has ever felt overlooked in a relationship.
