Its members were female singers Ivonne Margarita Guevara García, Ilse María Olivo Schweinfurth and Irma Angélica Hernández Ochoa, "Mimí"; they're usually referred to by their first names, Ivonne, Ilse and Mimí.

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.

Tu y Yo
Flans Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Deja que me acerque
tocar tu corazón
y besarte hasta que acabe
el tiempo

Deja que te sienta
y volverás a ser
pequeñito como ayer

Me llevarás sobre tus alas amarillas
y viajaremos como en una fantasía
tú y yo

Tú y yo
perdidos en el cielo,
tan lejos del dolor y del miedo
Cuéntame una historia
de duendes y de hadas
doradas como tus sentimientos
Todas las nubes
cantarán para nosotros
y suspendidos
bailaremos en tu espacio esta canción
Tú y yo
perdidos en el cielo
tan lejos del dolor y del miedo
Cuéntame otra historia
y hazme sentir tu voz
pequeñita en mi interior

Todas las nubes
cantarán para nosotros
y suspendidos
bailaremos en tu espacio esta canción
Tú y yo,
mil hadas que nos cuidan,
guardando nuestro amor en sueños.

Deja que te sienta

Overall Meaning

"Tu y Yo" is a love song by Argentine-Argentine duo Flans. The lyrics talk about surrendering oneself to the arms of a lover and losing oneself in a blissful world of love and happiness. The lines "Deja que me acerque, tocar tu corazón, y besarte hasta que acabe el tiempo" (Let me come closer, touch your heart, and kiss you until time ends) express the desire to be near their lover and cherish every moment with them. The idea of feeling small and innocent again, "pequeñito como ayer," suggests a longing to relive the early stages of love when everything felt new and exciting.

The verses allude to a timeless love that transcends pain, fear, and the outside world. The lovers are lost in the sky, far away from any troubles, and surrounded by magical creatures such as elves and fairies, evoking a childlike wonder and whimsicality. The chorus repeats the phrase "Tú y yo, perdidos en el cielo" (You and me, lost in the sky), emphasizing the closeness and unity of the two lovers in this dream-like world. The song urges the listener to let themselves be carried away by love, to "deja que te sienta," and to enjoy a moment of pure joy and devotion.
