Alessandra Rosaldo started singing at the age of 12, soon becoming a backup singer for Latin star Lucero. Joined by Chacho Gaytán, the act released a self-titled debut album in 1993, getting their songs "Historias De Amor" and "Escribeme En El Cielo" climbing on local charts.
A year later, Sentidos Opuestos recorded 'Al Sol Que Mas Calienta', moving to Barcelona, Spain, to make 'Viviendo Del Futuro' produced by Eduardo Posada and released in 1997. After issuing 'Viento A Favor' in 1998, Chacho Gaytán began working as a producer and arranger while Alessandra Rosaldo was making her debut as an actress in a soap opera called "DKDA, Sueños de Juventud."
In 2000, Sentidos Opuestos returned with 'Movimiento Perpetuo' and disbanded a year after with 'En Vivo,' a live album recorded at Six Flags Mexico.
La Vida
Sentidos Opuestos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
o doy saltos en los charcos, soy asi
pobre de ti si te pones colorado
cuando canto acabaras como el carmin
es tan genial abrir los ojos y volar
sin dar nunguna explicacion
no me pidas justificacion
voy siempre a donde el corazon me lleva
La vida cuando te viene a buscar
la vida te da la oportunidad
de ser feliz y no uedes dejarla pasar
la vida
Tal para cual tu en el polo y yo en el otro
nos comemos con los ojos sin parar
somo un par de chiquillos caprichossos
que jugamos al azar con el amor
tu tan formal
a mi que todo me da igual
la divergencia mas total
pero basta que me toque si
el sol se enciende para mi
como una antorcha en medio de la noche
La vida cuando te viene a buscar
la vida te da la oportunidad
de ser feliz y la tienes que aprovechar
la vida, tarde o temprano veras
la vida, da siempre una de cal y otra de arena por favor no me llores mas
No me pidas justificación,
ni motivos simplemte yo,
voy siempre a donde el corazón me lleva
La vida cuando te viene a buscar
la vida, te da la oportunidad
de ser feliz y la tienes que aprovechar
La vida tarde o temprano veras
la vida, da siempre una de cal y otra de arena por favor no me llores más,
La vida
In Sentidos Opuestos's song La Vida, the singer is unabashedly expressing their individuality and carefree spirit. The lyrics suggest that the singer isn't concerned with conforming to societal expectations, as they enjoy jumping in puddles and admiring rooftops. The refrain emphasizes the fleeting nature of life and the importance of seizing opportunities for happiness. The singer encourages the listener to follow their heart and not to dwell on past disappointments or hardships.
The opening verse emphasizes the singer's independence and refusal to be ashamed of their quirks or interests. The second verse describes a flirtatious encounter with someone who is more reserved than the singer, but the singer is ultimately unbothered by their differences. Both verses convey the theme of embracing one's uniqueness and living in the moment.
The chorus is a simple but powerful statement of the song's message. It warns that life can slip away quickly, and one must be willing to make the most of the opportunities that come their way.
