SONG MEANING

Have you ever felt like a heart-broken detective, piecing together clues about the new person stealing your beloved’s attention? That is exactly the vibe of Y Cómo Es Él, Marc Anthony’s passionate remake of José Luis Perales’s classic. Singing from the perspective of a man who sees change in his partner’s eyes, Marc unleashes a flurry of questions: Who is this guy? Where did he meet you? What does he do in his free time? Behind the interrogation lies raw fear and jealousy—he calls the rival “a thief” who has taken a piece of his life.

Yet the song is not just an inquisition; it is a tender goodbye. The narrator gently reminds her to dress warmly, grab an umbrella, and hide her tears, showing lingering care even while his own heart breaks. This bittersweet mix of love, loss, and reluctant acceptance makes the track a moving lesson in emotional complexity—perfect for learners eager to explore real-life feelings through rich Spanish lyrics sung by the United States–Puerto Rican superstar.
