“Por Amarte Tanto” is Melendi’s fiery confession about loving someone who only gives pain in return. The singer begins by admitting that he fell for mirages — seeing an oasis in a desert-cold heart. He feels like a mere pawn, screaming to the sky for a single strand of her affection, yet silence is all he gets. The more he forgives, the deeper the wound grows, until even champagne tastes like paint thinner and his sleepless nights pile up.
In the second half, the tone flips from pleading to powerful self-defence. Melendi lists vivid boundaries: he does not want her near the bottom of his glass or the elevator to his door. No more clown nose, no more doormat, no more fool. The song becomes an anthem of breaking free from a toxic love, reminding learners that passion without respect can “kill you inside,” but reclaiming dignity can feel just as dramatic and alive as the very love that hurt you.
Melendi (Ramón Melendi Espina) is a Spanish singer and songwriter from Oviedo whose sound blends pop, rumba, and pop rock. He broke through with his debut album Sin noticias de Holanda in 2003, and his single "Con la luna llena" became the official theme of the 2004 Vuelta a España.
His catalog mixes catchy hooks with heartfelt, streetwise storytelling, including the Real Oviedo anthem "Volveremos." He has also appeared as a coach on La Voz Kids in Mexico. In 2025 he celebrated two decades on stage with the "20 años sin noticias" tour, drawing huge crowds across Spain.
