Hola Como Estas

The song 'Hola Como Estas' by The Sacados is a playful yet poignant exploration of distance and longing in a relationship. The lyrics convey a conversation or a series of messages from one partner to another who is away, possibly in Paris. The repeated line 'Hola como estas' sets a casual tone, suggesting a check-in with the distant lover. The absence of the promised postcard and the mention of the long wait indicate a sense of longing and the difficulty of being apart.

As the song progresses, there's a twist in the narrative. The person left behind admits to 'portarse mal' (behaving badly) and finding it thrilling. This confession adds a layer of mischief and perhaps guilt to the song. It's unclear whether this behavior is a form of coping with loneliness or an act of rebellion against the separation. The catchy and repetitive chorus 'Más de lo que te imaginas, Me estoy portando mal y me fascina' suggests that the protagonist is somewhat enjoying this newfound freedom or naughtiness.

The song ends without resolution, leaving the listener to wonder about the fate of the relationship. The partner's extended absence and the protagonist's behavior create a tension that is not fully resolved. The playful tone of the music contrasts with the underlying themes of longing and potential infidelity, making 'Hola Como Estas' a song that captures the complexity of emotions in a long-distance relationship.
