“Clavaito” pairs Russian singer Chanel with Spanish heart-throb Abraham Mateo for a vibrant, bittersweet confession of love that just will not budge. The chorus keeps repeating clava’ito / clava’ita – Spanish slang for “stuck like a nail” – because that is exactly how the two narrators feel: their ex is lodged deep in their hearts, hurting and delighting them at the same time. Seeing the other person happy with someone else stings, yet the mere memory of their touch is still addictive. Alcohol becomes a liquid courage, smiles and glances are carefully rehearsed masks, and lonely walks in the cold feel harsher than the North Pole.
Behind the catchy bachata-pop beat, the lyrics paint a relatable picture of modern obsession: secretly deleting search histories, making anonymous phone calls, and clinging to hope that the door might open any minute. “Clavaito” turns romantic despair into a dance-floor anthem, reminding us that sometimes the hardest person to let go of is the one who has already moved on – but at least we can sing (and sway) our heartbreak away.
