SONG MEANING

Belinda’s “Cactus” blooms in the middle of heartbreak. The Spanish pop star turns her pain into power, confessing that while therapy helps, music heals even more. She opens her chest and lets every thorny feeling fall out: disappointment, anger, and the sting of a love that never matched her expectations. Between catchy beats, she reminds us that there is no good without bad, and even the deepest ache eventually fades.

With tequila shots, raised glasses, and a dance-floor anthem, Belinda toasts both the memories and the lessons learned. She calls out a partner who flaunted a fake commitment (the “stone” that was never real) and celebrates finally walking away con mucha clase. “Cactus” is a vibrant ode to resilience: feel the hurt, shout it out, then sway your hips, because every prickly chapter can still blossom into something fierce and free.
