Angel Eléctrico

Soda Stereo's 'Angel Eléctrico' is a song that seems to delve into the themes of inner turmoil and the consequences of one's actions. The lyrics paint a picture of a storm, which could be a metaphor for emotional chaos or a troubled state of mind. The 'árbol color sodio' (sodium-colored tree) and the 'caída de un ángel eléctrico' (fall of an electric angel) suggest a scene that is both unnatural and charged with energy, possibly reflecting the singer's feelings of being out of place or in a state of upheaval.

The mention of 'estática' (static) and not wanting to hurt someone again indicates a sense of regret and a desire to avoid repeating past mistakes. The 'caída de otro ángel eléctrico' (fall of another electric angel) could symbolize a repeated failure or a cyclical pattern of behavior that the singer is struggling to break free from. The imagery of being 'enredado en cables' (entangled in cables) and on the edge of resignation further emphasizes a feeling of being trapped or constrained by one's own actions or circumstances.

The song shifts to a more hopeful tone with the introduction of 'un nuevo acorde' (a new chord), which suggests a change or a break from the monotony. The ability to still see the sun and 'kiss your shadow' implies that despite the setbacks, there is still hope and a chance for redemption. The acknowledgment of the cost paid for 'quebrar la calma' (breaking the calm) shows an awareness of the consequences of one's actions and perhaps a readiness to face them and move forward.
