Picture yourself wide-awake at midnight, chasing a feeling so electric that you refuse to let sleep steal it away. In “Estrellas y Fantasmas,” Spanish singer-songwriter David Otero turns that rush into a kaleidoscope of images: pills that keep the party alive, dreams turned into a personal religion, and sudden bursts of stars and ghosts that drift through the dark like Cinderella slipping into the royal ball. The song celebrates the thrill of throwing logic out the window, living on instinct, and dancing with every contradiction that pops up along the way.
Beneath the glitter, Otero slips in a gentle truth: the most beautiful moments often bloom when no one is watching. The lovers fall “like playing cards in the air,” eyes blazing, hearts vulnerable, inventing their own universe far from the spotlight. It is a hymn to secret magic, the kind that appears unannounced, disappears just as quickly, and leaves you wondering whether it was ever real—or whether that mystery is the point.
