The band appeared on the Chilean music scene in 2005, as one of the finalists in the 6th annual National Young Band Festival at the Balmaceda Cultural Center, Santiago. Their first EP (self-titled) was released that year and a self-produced album, Gran Santiago, followed in April 2007. The song "Eras mi persona favorita" became their signature tune.
Attention from the Chilean media increased and they appeared several times on TV and radio. Their second album, Bailar y Llorrar, was released in 2008.
Then, suddenly, in October 2009 they announced that the band was separating, leaving the members to pursue solo projects. Anwandter released work as Odisea and, later, under his own name. Cristóbal Fredes is part of Los Mil Jinetes.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De quien soy
Si te digo
Que me voy
No soy malo
En verdad
Yo soy bueno,
De verdad
Cada día veo todo igual
A mi no me parece ser un criminal que hay que encerrar
No tengo mucho que decir
Yo soy una canción para tí
Yo te quiero
Por favor
No te olvides
Que soy yo
Y si cada día veo todo igual
A mi no me parece ser un criminal que haya que encerrar
No tengo mucho que decir
Yo soy una canción para tí
No quiero que termine en frases de "cine en su casa"
Malas y de domingo
Yo sé, yo sé, yo se que nos vamos a encontrar
No tengo mucho que decir
Yo soy una canción para tí...
