Background

[edit]

This song, according to a publication of La Tercera that reviews the album La Trenza: " [it's] a different theme within the vintage tonic of La Trenza, pop rock with some acoustic tones in half time. 'I'm unstable but you know I love you', ends in the choir that connects with the formula of international pop in the late 60s".[2]

Music video

[edit]

The music video was directed by Gamaliel de Santiago, it was recorded for two days in Mexican locations such as Condesa, Insurgente and La Marquesa.[3] The clip shows Mon Laferte next to a wooden or cardboard figure as her boyfriend,[4] which is different from she and very fragile, to the point that she can raise it like a comet or break it without wanting an arm,[5] symbolizing in this way the fragile of human relationships, says the artist about it: "The idea of the video was how fragile they are relationships, and in the end we all make mistakes, we hurt, sometimes not wanting to".[6]

The video and the song are a favorite of the Chilean artist, stating: "It's my favorite video of a lifetime. I think it's the most beautiful video we've made. It's beautiful. And the song I think is also my favorite of La Trenza".[7]
