“Y Hubo Alguien” spins a dramatic salsa tale where regret meets empowerment. Over blazing horns and congas, Marc Anthony plays the role of a lover unexpectedly revisited by an ex who suddenly “remembers” how happy they once were. She wants dinners, tears, and second chances, but he reminds her that the moment she walked away, he was just as free to choose. In that freedom he found someone else who showered him with affection, details, and kind words every afternoon.
The chorus pounds home the lesson: when you leave without a proper goodbye, someone better might step in. The song celebrates self-worth and the sweet revenge of moving on, wrapping a cautionary message inside irresistible salsa energy. Dance to it, sing it loud, and remember that love lost can quickly become love replaced… especially when the clave is this catchy.
