Miguel Bosé plunges us into the razor-thin line between passion and self-destruction. In “Estuve A Punto De…” he repeats, almost like a heartbeat, that he was “a esto”—this close—to throwing everything away for a single kiss. The lyrics paint vivid images of broken bones, a noose around the neck, and the magnetic pull of a lover’s bed, showing how seductive desire can morph into a dangerous trap. Yet in the same breath, the narrator snaps the rope, steps back from the abyss, and admits that fear was not the motivation; clearer vision was.
The song is a confession and a celebration of survival. Bosé captures that electrifying moment when you realize just how far you were willing to fall—and decide to climb back instead. The track’s pulsing rhythm mirrors the adrenaline of nearly losing it all, while the lyrics remind listeners that reclaiming self-control can be as dramatic and courageous as passion itself. In short, it is a musical tightrope walk, urging us to feel deeply, but never forget the value of our own lives.
