Halagos translates to "flattery" or "compliments." It's a less common word in everyday Spanish songs, making it stand out.
In "Los Mejores," the song talks about the fleeting nature of fame and success. The lyrics mention "los halagos y los premios" (the flattery and the awards) as things that fill concerts when everything is going well. This highlights how external validation, like compliments, is part of the temporary glory they experience.
What do you do when you're at the top of your game? Spanish artist Alizzz has an idea: make a plan for when it's all over. In "Los mejores," which means "The Best," the singer describes a life full of success: "beauty and health, compliments and awards, charm and glamour, sold-out concerts." He knows this golden era of "flying high" won't last forever.
So, he proposes a pact. When the fame fades, the money stops, and he's older with "a bigger belly and bad kidneys," he won't be sad. Instead, he'll raise a glass and toast to the past. Why? "Porque fuimo' lo' mejores"—because we were the best. The song is a powerful and fun celebration of living in the moment, while promising to always cherish the memories of past glories, no matter what the future holds.
