The story behind

Es demasiado triste, according to DoReSol

The last piece that closes the album Corazones, Es demasiado triste, is presented with an atmosphere that its creator, Jorge González, described as being in the most desolate circus. The melody, with a circus ballad feel and a marked use of bass drums, accompanies lyrics that he himself described as heartbreaking and desperate. For González, this composition is among the most successful on the album, although also among those that were hardest for him to perform live.

This work, Corazones, released in 1990, marked a sonic shift for Los Prisioneros. Leaving behind the guitar rock and politically tinged lyrics of their beginnings, they ventured into a more polished sound, close to synth-pop and dance-pop, with influences from house and electro-disco. The album's recording was done entirely outside of Chile, in Los Angeles studios, under the production of Gustavo Santaolalla and the co-production of Aníbal Kerpel. It was during this period that Jorge González took on an even more central creative role in the band.
