Inevitable

Amaia Montero's song 'Inevitable' delves into the intense and often uncontrollable emotions that come with forbidden love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that is both irresistible and dangerous, much like the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. The metaphor of the 'manzana del edén' (apple of Eden) sets the stage for a love that is tempting yet off-limits, creating a sense of tension and longing that permeates the entire song.

The chorus emphasizes the uncontrollable and inevitable nature of this love, describing it as an 'animal que es indomable' (an indomitable animal). This metaphor highlights the primal and instinctual aspects of the emotions involved, suggesting that the singer feels powerless against the force of her feelings. The repeated references to burning and being consumed by passion ('me arde' and 'me quema') further underscore the intensity of her emotions, making it clear that this love is both a source of pain and pleasure.

Despite knowing that this love is 'prohibido' (forbidden), the singer finds herself unable to resist. The song captures the internal conflict between reason and passion, as the singer acknowledges the danger but is ultimately overwhelmed by her feelings. The line 'Sólo un beso me basta' (Just one kiss is enough) encapsulates the depth of her longing and the power of this forbidden love. The song's emotional intensity and vivid imagery make it a compelling exploration of the complexities of love and desire.
