Se Solicita (part. Gerardo Coronel)

Luis Angel (El Flaco) and Gerardo Coronel's song "Se Solicita" is a heartfelt exploration of heartbreak and the search for solace in companionship and alcohol. The song opens with a call for bottles and a serenade, setting the stage for a night of drinking to drown out the pain of lost love. The lyrics express a desire for someone who shares the same emotional turmoil, someone who is equally "jodido" in love, to join in the cathartic experience of drinking away their sorrows.

The repeated phrase "Se solicita" ("Wanted") underscores the yearning for connection and understanding. The protagonist seeks not only a drinking partner but also someone who can prevent them from making impulsive decisions, like calling their ex or singing "Tragos Amargos," a classic song about bitter drinks and heartbreak. This highlights the internal struggle between wanting to move on and the lingering attachment to the past.

The song also touches on the idea of using alcohol as a form of therapy, a common theme in regional Mexican music. Despite the temporary relief it offers, the protagonist acknowledges that even inebriation doesn't erase the desire to see their lost love. The mention of bringing a serenade to "la perdida" ("the lost one") adds a layer of cultural tradition, where music is used as a means of expressing deep emotions and seeking reconciliation. Ultimately, "Se Solicita" captures the universal experience of heartache and the lengths one might go to find comfort and closure.
