SONG MEANING

Picture a cosmic love story where gravity is really just attraction in disguise. In “Básicamente,” Colombian pop star Sebastián Yatra compares himself to the Moon and his partner to a wandering planet. The Moon (Yatra) shines steadily, yet watches the planet circle restlessly, looking for light elsewhere. Every time the planet feels lost, it drifts back into the Moon’s glow, sparking questions about loyalty, boundaries, and why saying “Hola” can send emotions into orbit.

Yatra’s lyrics explore the push-and-pull of a relationship that can’t quite find equilibrium. He sings about the joy of illuminating someone’s world, but also the frustration of being taken for granted. The space imagery—Venus giving advice, the Sun setting, the night sky thick with gravity—highlights how hard it is to break free from familiar orbits. Ultimately, the song reminds us that real love means shining for ourselves first, not just reflecting someone else’s light.
