Picture a warm Mexican evening: guitars strumming, voices weaving through the air, and two singers placing a hand on their hearts as they confess “tú eres mi cielo” — you are my sky. In “Amor, Amor De Mis Amores,” Natalia Lafourcade and Devendra Banhart revive a golden-age bolero, turning it into a dreamy love-letter where every breath, every beat of the song is shared with the beloved. The narrator’s world begins and ends with this person: they are the air that is breathed, the hope that blossoms like flowers, the only remedy for a heart overwhelmed by devotion.
Rather than a complicated story, the lyrics offer a simple yet powerful mantra of affection. Repeating lines like “que respiro el aire que respiras tú” underscores an unbreakable bond, while the chorus — “amor de mis amores” — crowns the loved one as the greatest of all loves. It is a serenade that invites listeners to sway, smile, and remember how thrilling it feels to dedicate every heartbeat to someone special.
