La Canción
A nostalgic breakup record that captures how one familiar melody can reopen emotions you thought were already buried.
The Story Behind the Song
"La Canción" works because it focuses on one painfully specific moment: hearing a song in public and instantly being thrown back into a past relationship. Instead of dramatic storytelling, the writing is minimal and repetitive, which mirrors the way memory actually loops in real life.
Within OASIS, this track balances the project's party energy with emotional vulnerability. Bad Bunny and J Balvin avoid over-explaining the breakup; they let the chorus do the work. The result is a record that feels both personal and universal, making it one of the most replayed post-breakup anthems in Latin pop.
Lyrics & Meaning
Español (Original)
[Chorus]
Pensaba que te había olvidao
Pero pusieron la canción
Que cantamo' bien borracho'
Que bailamo' bien borracho'
Nos besamo' bien borracho'
Los dos pensábamo' que éramo' mejor que los demá'
Pero en verdad, estábamo' bien jodío'
English Translation
[Chorus]
I thought I had forgotten you
But they played the song
The one we used to sing, completely drunk
The one we used to dance to, completely drunk
The one where we kissed, completely drunk
Both of us thought we were better than everyone else
But the truth is, we were both really broken
