1) Elefante was one of Uruguay's leading rock bands in the 90's, formed in Montevideo. The original lineup consisted of STELLA MARIS (voice), BESTIA (guitar), HARRY (bass), CHONIUK (drums), and MANECO (guitar and samplers).
Elefante was one of the most significative bands from that decade, mixing hip-hop, nü-metal and electronica in their music. In addition, a female voice in the front gave them a different touch. They were always linked by the Montevideo's underground.
Elefante edited three albums. "Elefante 1" (Koala Records / 2000), "Bazar" (Koala Records / 2001), and "Forma" (Koala Records / 2002).
After "Forma", the band split up in 2002.

2) Mexican Elefante formed in the early '90s. They had the opportunity to play for a major audience in 2000 while opening for Joaquín Sabina at Mexico City's Auditorio Nacional. A year later, the band represented Mexico in Viña del Mar, the most popular Chilean festival, with a song called "De la Noche a la Mañana." The song was featured in Elefante's debut album El Que Busca Encuentra, produced by Nacho Bejar.

3. Redirected Elephante is the recording and performing moniker of Tim Wu, a Los Angeles-based EDM DJ/producer known for his big-room progressive house anthems and remixes of artists ranging from Clean Bandit to Lorde. He generally tends to produce pop-leaning vocal dance tracks, but he dips into slower, trap-inspired numbers as well. Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan in 1989, Wu began playing music at an early age, receiving classical piano training before teaching himself to play guitar. He graduated from Harvard University in 2011 and initially tried to break into the music business as an acoustic singer/songwriter before switching to electronic dance music. He started out creating remixes before producing original tracks, and his first EP was released in 2013. Since then, he's released dozens of tracks and remixes, with songs like "I Want You" and "Age of Innocence" receiving millions of online streams. His debut full-length, I Am the Elephante, appeared in 2016. "Troubled," a collaborative single with singer Deb's Daughter, appeared in early 2017.

Si la vida es así
Le aposté todo a tus besos
Y así todo lo perdí
No me pidas perdón
Que ni tú te lo crees
Esas lágrimas son falsas
Como falso fue tu amor
Pero no me digas nada
Que el tonto he sido yo
Si la luna no es de queso
Ni las nubes de algodón
Para qué seguir con cuentos
Con amores de ficción
Si tu boca no es de fresa
Ni en tus ojos sale el sol
Mentirosa, traicionera
Y yo que daba por ti la vida entera
Mentirosa, embustera
Basta ya de tanto ruido
Este cuento se acabó
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Para qué decir más
Si todo terminó
Todo lo que sube baja
Todo lo que viene va
No me pidas perdón
Que ni tú te lo crees
Vete por donde llegaste
Y ojalá te vaya bien
Pero no me digas nada
Que el tonto he sido yo
Si la luna no es de queso
Ni las nubes de algodón
Para qué seguir con cuentos
Con amores de ficción
Si tu boca no es de fresa
Ni en tus ojos sale el sol
Mentirosa, traicionera
Y yo que daba por ti la vida entera
Mentirosa, embustera
Basta ya de tanto ruido
Este cuento se acabó
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (súbale)
Mentirosa, traicionera
Y yo que daba por ti la vida entera
Mentirosa, embustera
Yo contigo no regreso aunque me muera, no no
Mentirosa, traicionera
Y yo que daba por ti la vida entera
Mentirosa, embustera
Basta de tanto ruido
Este cuento se acabó
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
The lyrics of "Mentirosa" by Marc Anthony describe the pain and betrayal felt by the singer, who has lost everything by placing all of his bets on the false promises of a deceitful lover. He refuses to believe her insincere apologies and fake tears, recognizing that her love was nothing but a lie. The singer cannot continue living in a world of fiction and empty promises, and he urges his lover to leave and never return. He acknowledges his foolishness in believing her lies and encourages her to move on with her life, even though he is still deeply hurt by her betrayal.
The song's chorus repeatedly uses the words "mentirosa" and "embustera," emphasizing the singer's anger and disappointment in his lover's deceitful nature. The repetition of these words adds to the song's emotional intensity and leaves the listener with a clear message: once trust is broken, it is difficult if not impossible to regain.
Overall, "Mentirosa" is a song that explores the theme of deception and the pain it can cause in a relationship. By confronting his lover's falsehoods and refusing to remain entangled in a web of lies, the singer finds a sense of release and closure that allows him to move forward.
