Un misil en mi placard

The genesis of this song has a curious origin. Cerati himself shared that the creative spark came from a humorous comic strip he saw in a magazine. The image of a man discovering an unexpected object, like a missile, in the most unlikely place, like his partner's closet, gave rise to this metaphor. This idea lends itself to various interpretations, from infidelity to, for some, an allusion to the social tension and fear of war that was experienced in 1982, the year the band was formed, with the possibility of attacks in the middle of the city of Buenos Aires. Later, in 1996, the song acquired a new life with the acoustic version for the MTV Unplugged. This reinterpretation, slower and with an alternative style, even incorporated an introductory fragment of "Chrome Waves" by the group Ride, demonstrating the versatility and evolution of the theme over time. It was a song that accompanied Soda Stereo from their beginnings, playing in concerts until the Gira Animal in 1991, and reviving for the Unplugged, eventually being performed for the last time live in December 1997 in Santiago, Chile, at a small concert at his son's home, Benito Cerati.
