Tamagotchi (remix) (part. Francely Abreu)

In 'Tamagotchi (remix),' Kenia OS uses the metaphor of a Tamagotchi, a digital pet from the 90s, to describe a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of being treated like a toy—played with, neglected, and ultimately discarded. The comparison to a Tamagotchi highlights the emotional neglect and abandonment the singer feels, as she sings about being left 'sedienta y muriéndome de frío' (thirsty and dying of cold) when her partner loses interest. This metaphor effectively captures the sense of being used and then forgotten, much like how one might neglect a digital pet once the novelty wears off.

The song delves deeper into the emotional impact of this neglect. Kenia OS describes the initial attraction and the superficial reasons for the relationship, such as being chosen for her 'empaque' (packaging). Despite her efforts to make her partner happy, she ends up feeling lost in his 'game,' leading to a 'game over' for her. The lyrics also touch on the imbalance in the relationship, with the partner making excuses and causing drama while she yearns for a deeper connection. The line 'Pusiste más excusas que pusiste ganas' (You made more excuses than you put in effort) encapsulates this frustration.

The song also incorporates modern digital references, such as 'Fortnite' and 'impostor,' to further emphasize the theme of being treated as a disposable object. These references bridge the gap between the nostalgic Tamagotchi metaphor and contemporary digital culture, making the song relatable to a younger audience. The repeated refrain of not wanting to be friends and rejecting 'fake love' underscores the singer's resolve to move on from this toxic relationship. Through its clever use of metaphors and cultural references, 'Tamagotchi (remix)' poignantly captures the pain of emotional neglect and the journey towards self-empowerment.
