1) Motel is a soul-rock band created from Mexico in 2002, consisting of Guillermo (Billy) Méndez, Rodrigo Dávila Chapoy, José Damián and Rubén Puente. Motel formed when its original members — Rodrigo and Billy — reunited to perform music casually, without long-term career intentions. Both recorded songs in music studios and rehearsals independently for several months before coming together as a group. They then played as a duo in bars in [Mexico City, eventually inviting José Damián (drums) and Rubén Puente (bass) to form part of the band.[1]

"Dime Ven" peaked at second place in the Mexican top 40 in July 2006, coming just short of Julieta Venegas's "Me Voy". Motel followed with a second single, "Olvidame". The same year, Motel wrote Skimo es el Lugar for the television sitcom Skimo, broadcast by Nickelodeon Latinamerica.

Así Me Quedo
Motel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La noche aquella que me acabó
Cuando entre sombras nos encontramos
Los dos
Mirabas frágil en tu lugar
Inaceptable voltear atras
Sin darme cuenta tu te acercaste
Solo en un instante
Mueves todo y pierdo la razon
Y asi me quedo yo no no
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Quise encontrarte y pedirte más
Pero escapaste sin avisar
En un instante te evaporaste sin más
Entre las sombras y confusión
Pude mirar a lo lejos
Una mano roja un beso en el aire
Pero al final juegas y luego te vas
Solo en un instante
Mueves todo y pierdo la razón
Y así me quedo en la confusión
De no poder encontar la razón
Que usaste para divertir tu corazón
Y así me quedo yo no no no
oh oh oh
oh oh oh
oh oh oh
oh oh oh
Pero al final juegas y luego te vas
Solo en un instante
Mueves todo y pierdo la razón
Y así me quedo en la confusión
De no poder encontar la razón
Que usaste para divertir tu corazón
Y asi me quedo yo no no no
The song "Asi me quedo" by Motel narrates the confusion and pain of a lost encounter with a person who disappeared suddenly. The lyrics suggest that the singer had some sort of relationship with the other person, and they met in the shadows of the night, with the other person approaching unexpectedly. The singer describes the other person's fragility and how it would have been unacceptable to turn back at that moment. However, despite the intensity of the moment, the other person played with the singer's emotions and disappeared suddenly, leaving them confused and distraught.
The chorus of the song repeats "Pero al final juegas y luego te vas" (But in the end, you play, and then you leave), emphasizing the other person's deceitful behavior, and how they toyed with the singer's emotions. The singer expresses the overwhelming feeling of confusion and disorientation that the incident caused, describing how they are unable to find the reason why the other person acted that way, leaving their heart broken.
The lyrics use vivid imagery, such as the "red hand" and a "kiss in the air," to suggest how the singer saw glimpses of the other person disappearing into the night. The song's melody is slow, and the instrumentation is minimal, allowing the focus to remain on the heartfelt lyrics.
