Quién teme a la máquina?

Guitarricadelafuente's song "Quién teme a la máquina?" explores the complex relationship between humans and technology, wrapped in a poetic and metaphorical narrative. The lyrics open with a sense of rebellion against traditional norms, suggesting a clash between the old and the new. The phrase "Será un escándalo old school del milenio" hints at a disruption caused by embracing modernity, possibly referring to the artist's own journey in the music industry or society's broader technological evolution.

The song delves into the personal struggle of navigating a world increasingly dominated by machines. The line "Paso pantalla en el juego y no veo nada" metaphorically describes the feeling of advancing in life or a digital world without truly seeing or understanding one's surroundings. This blindness is likened to being "ciego en Granada," a city known for its rich history and beauty, suggesting a loss of connection to the tangible world. Yet, the artist finds a way to embrace this fear, turning the machine into a romantic partner, "Me la echo de novia," symbolizing a reluctant acceptance or even affection for technology.

Friendship and companionship are also central themes, as the artist expresses a desire to face challenges together with loved ones. The mention of "mis botas doradas de Spanish leather" evokes a sense of nostalgia and cultural identity, grounding the futuristic narrative in a personal and historical context. The song closes with a sense of urgency and fleeting time, "Y se nos pira tan rápido," capturing the rapid pace of modern life and the ephemeral nature of experiences in a digital age.
