The three girls were initially cast in the mid-1980s for a TV show to be called Fans, which was to feature chats and sing-alongs with guest stars. When plans for the show fell through, a project was started to turn the girls into a pop music group. The group was renamed "Flans" and their first album, Flans, was launched in 1985. Their style was mainly pop music and ballads although one of their albums (Cuéntamelo Dum-Dum) is somewhat child-oriented.
The group released a new album every year until 1990 when they separated, with a national tour and the release of their "last" album Adiós.
After their separation in 1990, Ivonne married and devoted herself to painting; Mimí and Ilse started solo careers, with Mimí also being the host for a TV show.
Rumors of a reunion started in 1999 and were confirmed with the 2000 release of Hadas, although further work by the group has been sporadic.
In 2002, the group changed their name to IIM and released a new album of Electronic versions of their greatest hits.
In 2006, the group returned under the name Flans for a good-bye tour "20 Millas Despues", with a final concert in Mexico City.
No Soy Tan Fuerte
Flans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te extraño al respirar
Esta tristeza que se queda
Me empieza a acompañar
Si la quito te me olvidas
Prefiero este dolor que me quema si te miro
en la imaginación
Lo quiero caminar
Sin tu cuerpo que me mueve
Despacio sin parar
Sin el eco de tu aliento
No quiero despertar
Y tu risa no me deja, me grita que no estas
Tengo miedo amor, no soy tan fuerte hoy
Me da miedo pensar
que alguien más te besará
Ya no quiero pensar
Que solo quede tu amistad
Cierro los ojos y te nombro
Quiero sentir tu olor
Y te espero y te sueño
Quiero escuchar tu voz
Tu mirada me recuerda, que frágil soy
Y me apago en tu silencio
Ya no se estar sin ti
Tengo miedo amor, ya no soy tan fuerte hoy
Me lastima pensar
Que solo quede tu amistad

She feels incomplete without him and finds it hard to let go of the memories.

She is afraid to imagine that someone else might take his place or that their relationship might fade away into mere friendship. The fear of losing the love of her life is suffocating her. She closes her eyes and imagines being with him again, but the reality of his absence hits hard, making her feel fragile and powerless.
