Noticiero

On the album Si el norte fuera el sur, released in 1996, we find a track called Noticiero which stands out for its duration, extending to 5 minutes and 31 seconds. This song, part of a work that explored diverse musical styles, from ballads to Cuban influences and rock, adds to the characteristic lyrical proposal of Ricardo Arjona. His work often delves into social and everyday themes, addressing issues such as immigration or human relationships, and Noticiero fits into that line of telling stories through its lyrics.

This album, Si el norte fuera el sur, was a milestone in Ricardo Arjona's career, driven in part by the success of the title track, which presented a humorous vision of a possible role reversal between Latin America and the United States. Noticiero, along with other tracks like Ella y él and Aún te amo (carta no.1), was part of an album that featured the collaboration of internationally renowned musicians such as Luis Conte, Billy Preston, and Abraham Laboriel, contributing diverse sonic textures to the production.
