The band was originally composed of the siblings Sole and Juan Luis Giménez, and their friend Pablo Gomez. In the same year 1983, they won a radio contest and their first recording, Danzad, Danzad Malditos, appeared one year later under the RCA label. But the record company forced them to write more commercial songs outside their style, and they left in 1986 to work with an independent label, Discos Intermitentes. Pablo Gomez left the group and Javier Vela arrived to replace him. Later, Nacho Maño replaced Vela.
In 2006 they decided to split ways after Sole Giménez announced her solo carreer. Later in 2008, they included a new voice -Lydia- and made a re-appearance with a new album of original songs called "Sera".

Presuntos Implicados Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
se nos fue derritiendo nuestra cera.
sin querer como llega la locura
se nos fue tornando amor en usura.
y echo de menos tus manos
tan suaves como uva madura,
vuelve, satélite de amor
escondido tras el sol
vuelve, satélite de amor
como en aquella canción. sin querer como acaban los caminos
se nos fue el silencio entre los ruidos.
sin querer como el que huye de los suyos
se nos fue la voz entre los susurros.
y tiempos mejores, anhelos,
trato de encontrar un perdón.
vuelve, satélite de amor
escondido tras el sol
vuelve, satélite de amor
como en aquella canción.
"Satelite" by Presuntos Implicados is a song about the breakdown of a relationship that was once beautiful and full of love, but has now turned into a painful and destructive experience. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery that describes the erosion of the relationship, such as "Sin querer como el fuego en una vela, se nos fue derritiendo nuestra cera" which means "Without wanting to, like the fire in a candle, our wax melted away". This metaphor suggests the gradual deterioration of the relationship, much like the gradual melting of wax in a candle.
The song talks about how love can turn into obsession and how the passion that once existed can become poisonous. The line "se nos fue tornando amor en usura" means "our love turned into usury". This line compares the relationship to a business transaction where one person is exploiting the other, taking without giving in return. The singer of the song is lamenting the loss of the love they once had and is trying to come to terms with the fact that they might not be able to get it back.
In the end, the singer is still holding on to the hope that things can be restored to the way they once were. The chorus, "Vuelve, satélite de amor, escondido tras el sol, vuelve, satélite de amor, como en aquella canción" translates to "Come back, love satellite, hidden behind the sun, come back, love satellite, like in that song." The song is a bittersweet reflection on the complex nature of love and how it can change over time.
