SPAIN – Pastora Soler has released her new song, “Mi luz“, together with Blas Cantó. This collaboration unites two of the most powerful voices in the Spanish music scene and both the song and the video clip are available on all digital platforms from Thursday, April 2.
“In these moments when it is so badly needed, we want to bring a little light to all the people with this topic,” said the singer during the live announcement through her Instagram account.
The wait is over for the thousands of followers of Blas Cantó and Pastora Soler, who were left with honey on their lips after listening to them together at the special gala for the 25-year career of the Sevillian singer last Christmas on TVE.
“Mi luz” is the second single from Sentir, the last album by Pastora Soler from which she already introduced us “Although it costs us our lives”. The new theme is made up of Pablo Cebrián, Conchita and Luis Ramiro, authors with whom she usually works.
Pastora Soler has affirmed that “Mi luz” captivated her from the first moment by the refrain -and her 4-year-old daughter Estrella– despite being a pop, something far removed from her usual style. And after recording the demo, he thought it would be the perfect song to perform with Blas Cantó, of which his “great voice” and discipline stand out. And throws this message:
“You are perfect and you have a soul singing. The quick response to collaborate filled me with emotion.” The Murcian singer for his part, has stated that his surprise was such that the first thing he said when he heard the proposal was “a lie”.
The singer has been praised for her partner whom she admits that she always saw as a great candidate for Spain for Eurovision for her voice, her style and her presence on stage. “You are going to be the representative for the longest time in history,” he reminded him.
The official video of the song is recorded in Madrid, under the artistic direction of Francis Viñolo (husband of Pastora Soler). In it, we will see the interpreters follow the “dance steps” of the choreographer Elena Zafra.
“It is the only time they will see me dance,” Blas joked.
For her part, Pastora has confessed that the little Star “fell in love” with Blas during the recording, and it was Vega’s first trip to Madrid (out of her belly).
As the Andalusian has assured, the recording of the video was made “by chance”. She decided to fast-shoot because of her quick recovery after giving birth to her second daughter, Vega. If this had not happened, being alarmed by the spread of the coronavirus would have delayed the recording of the video clip.
“One thing this situation has taught us is that it is not to leave for tomorrow what you can do today,” said Blas, who is confined to his mother’s house in Murcia.
In the conversation that the singers had, we discovered their first photo together, taken in 2005 during a charity match in Jerez de la Frontera. Blas has taken the moment to praise Pastora and thank her for giving her this opportunity: “That 14-year-old boy had many dreams and now you are one of my lights.”
LYRICS
Se paró
El tiempo en esta habitación
El día en que dijiste adiós
La ciudad se derrumbó
Nuestro amor
Brillaba tanto como el sol
No digas que ahora se apagó
No digas que ya terminó
Vuelve y mírame
Quédate a mi lado hasta el amanecer
Vuelve y bésame otra vez
Igual que los dragones no se pueden domar
Las noches infinitas no se pueden borrar
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
Por más que las heridas se consigan cerrar
Por más que nuestra historia tenga un punto y final
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
Serás siempre mi luz
Serás siempre mi luz
Mientes mal
Se te olvido disimular
Aunque ha pasado un año ya
No sabes bien cómo actuar
Vuelve a entrar
Aquí la casa sigue igual
Tu mismo hueco en el sofá
No lo he podido reemplazar
Vuelve y mírame
Quédate a mi lado hasta el amanecer
Vuelve y bésame, otra vez
Igual que los dragones no se pueden domar
Las noches infinitas no se pueden borrar
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
Por más que las heridas se consigan cerrar
Por más que nuestra historia tenga un punto y final
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
Serás siempre mi luz
Serás siempre mi luz
No olvides que el amor no se puede matar
No puedes enterrar lo que quieres salvar
Tú te vas a marchar, yo sé que volverás, no
Te empeñas en negar lo que quisiste amar
No puedes enterrar lo que quieres salvar
Tú te vas a marchar, yo sé que volverás
Serás siempre mi luz
Serás siempre mi luz
Igual que los dragones no se pueden domar
Las noches infinitas no se pueden borrar
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
Por más que las heridas se consigan cerrar
Por más que nuestra historia tenga un punto y final
No te olvidaré jamás
No te olvidaré jamás
