SourceThis is the only song in the batch of Spanish-language songs that felt to me like it was really taking advantage of the language and not just using it as set dressing. I loved these lyrics--lots of lurid emotion and desperation in those words, and they flow naturally. I really like the first verse, and the comparison of belief in the chupacabra to the narrator’s irrational love is really wonderfully done. The guitar playing is nice, I love those flamenco strums, and the two instruments work really well together. Musically, I’m not sure this would stand out to me in a field of similar songs--no really memorable melodic hooks for me--but it definitely does what it set out to do, genre-wise.
