¡Qué Bueno, Qué Bueno! is a lively declaration of love where Jarabe de Palo and Jorge Drexler playfully juggle their feelings. From the very first te quiero the singer admits he is not always great at showing affection, yet his devotion is undeniable. The chorus bursts with the joyful exclamation ¡qué bueno! celebrating every sweet, messy, and contradictory part of being in love: liking the jealousy, waking up grateful, and cherishing the simple fact that the other person exists.
The verses tumble through a rapid-fire list of opposites—te tengo, te pierdo; te odio, te quiero—illustrating love’s push-and-pull rhythm. This back-and-forth captures the excitement, confusion, and intensity of a relationship that feels bigger than words. By the end, the singer realizes that what he misses most is the impossibility of loving even more than he already does. It is an upbeat tribute to imperfect yet wholehearted love, wrapping complex emotions in an infectious, feel-good refrain.
