SONG MEANING

Becky G’s “XLAS NUBES” is a confession of painful, stubborn love that refuses to fade. The title means “up in the clouds,” hinting at the dizzying heights the relationship once reached. Becky sings about giving “hasta lo que no tuve” – even what she never had – and still ending up heart-broken. She blocks her ex on Instagram, only to crave their stories moments later. Memories of stolen kisses feel like a punishment, showing how nostalgia can hurt just as much as it comforts.

In a clever twist, the singer who “no es religiosa” elevates her lover to the very top of an altar, exposing just how much power they held over her. Now she drowns her thoughts in drinks, yet her heart stays “terco,” stubbornly clinging to every spark they shared. The song balances the heavenly rush of past passion with the fiery torment of the breakup, capturing that all-too-human struggle: knowing you should move on, but not knowing how to forget.
