Consuela comes from the verb consolar, meaning 'to comfort' or 'to console'. It's a beautiful and emotionally resonant word that speaks to deep human connection and solace.

"Contigo en la Distancia" is a classic bolero, written by César Portillo de la Luz, that Ángela Aguilar covers on her Bolero album. The song is about missing someone so completely that the whole world feels different without them.
The singer says there is no time of day when she can put her loved one out of her mind. No melody sounds beautiful unless she can share it with them, and nothing else comforts her when they are apart. In the final lines she reaches for the biggest images she can find, lips, sun, stars, to say that no matter the distance between them, her heart stays with that person.
It is a simple, heartfelt way to describe longing: even far away, she is still with them.
