Regresa

The story behind

Ismael Serrano wrote Regresa, a two-minute and ten-second song that is part of La memoria de los peces, his second album. The album, which became platinum in Spain, focuses on how fish forget what happened just a few seconds ago, as if it never happened. In the song, Serrano once again speaks about what is lost, about what is left behind, as if time erased everything. The lyrics move between the personal and the collective, between what is forgotten and what continues to live. The melody is simple, but it carries an emotional weight that is felt in every note. People listen to it, repeat it, and sometimes, in the middle of everything, Regresa seems to remember something that no one else remembers.
