The lyrics of the song tell a fictional story about seeing death in a car accident and being told in first person. The text itself is a fallacy; because its author explained that the text is fictional, although he dedicated it to a cousin, who died in a traffic accident. Thus, the text is written from the place of the victim and the feelings they may have felt to experience death.[1]
It has become a classic of Argentine rock and was ranked #95 of the top 100 songs of Argentine rock.[2]
It has also been performed by artists as diverse as Fabiana Cantilo, Hilda Lizarazu, and Olivia Viggiano, among others.[3]
