Get ready to feel all the feels with Colombian powerhouse ChocQuibTown. Desde El Día En Que Te Fuiste paints the picture of someone glued to the same spot, staring at the silent phone, and praying their lost love walks back through an open door. The catchy beat hides a bittersweet confession: the singer cannot lie to their own heart, no matter how hard they try.
Throughout the song we hear a tug-of-war between hope and reality. Each unanswered ring makes the loneliness louder, the distance heavier, and the memories sharper. The repeated line “desde el día en que te fuiste” reminds us that everything changed the moment that goodbye was spoken. It is an anthem for anyone who has waited up all night for a message that never came, capturing that universal ache in a rhythm you will want to play on repeat.
