Claroscuro
Alejandro Balbis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nacen de ese claroscuro sus cantares insolentes
Uno y otro maquillaje y la persona que hay detrás
A veces los mismos mares, la misma felicidad
Este falso contraste, no tiene mucha ciencia
Al cantar transforma en arte su impaciencia
El cantor sube al tablado, va a enfrentar a sus demonios
O tal vez para curarse de la nostalgia invernal
Sin querer se vuelve parte del paisaje originial
Así es la suerte, del que canta y del que escucha
Diferente realidad, la misma lucha
In Alejandro Balbis's song Claroscuro, the singer describes the contrast between the performer and their true self. Onstage, the singer appears with flamboyant makeup and a bold attitude, but behind the façade, there is a person with insecurities and vulnerabilities. The performance is a form of escapism, a way to transform their impatience into art. The singer's songs are bold and insulting, emerging from the contrast between light and darkness.
As the singer steps onto the stage, they confront their demons, whether it be for the love of carnival or to escape from a boring marriage. Performing is also a way to heal from the winter sadness. However, the singer unwittingly becomes a part of the landscape they are trying to escape. The song reflects the duality of the performer's life, one where they must confront their insecurities and embrace their boldness, all while trying to maintain a sense of authenticity in the performance.
Claroscuro is a poignant and emotional song that describes the complex relationship between a performer and their audience. The contrasting elements of light and darkness are woven throughout the lyrics, creating a nuanced portrait of a performer's life.
