“Can’t remember to forget you”, el nuevo single de la colombiana, quien se hizo acompañar por la cantante de Barbados en el tema. La pieza adelanta el disco que sucederá a ‘Sale el sol’, y que verá la luz el próximo 25 de marzo.

Pero el tema no es solo una invitación de una a otra: Según informa el sello Sony Music, la pieza fue co-escrita por Shakira y Rihanna, junto a John Hill, Tom Hull, Daniel Ledinsky y Erik Hassle.

En ella, se ve a una colombiana involucrada en un pop ya sin los resabios latinos (menos tropicales) que abundan en su discografía, para orientarse a una creación de reminiscencia ska y fuertes guitarras en el coro.

Letra

Can’t remember to forget you

I left a note on my bedpost 

Said not to repeat

Yesterday’s mistakes

What I tend to do

When it comes to you

I see only the good

Selective memory

The way he makes me feel, yeah. Gotta hold on me

I’ve never met someone so different

Oh here we go 

He a part of me now

He a part of me

So where you go I follow, follow, follow

[Corous]

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

I can’t remember to forget you

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

I keep forgetting I should let you go

But when you look at me

The only memory is us kissing in the moonlight

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

I can’t remember to forget you

I can’t remember to forget you 

I go back again

Fall off the train

Land in his bed

Repeat yesterday’s mistakes

What I’m trying to say is not to forget

You see only the good, selective memory

The way he makes me feel like

The way he makes me feel

I never seemed to act so stupid

Oh here we go

He a part of me now

He a part of me

So where he goes I follow

[Repeat Corous]

I rob and I kill to keep him with me. I do anything for that boy. I’d give my last dime to hold him tonight. I do anything for that boy

I rob and I kill to keep him with me. I do anything for that boy. I’d give my last dime to hold him tonight. I do anything for that boy

[Repeat Corous]

But when you look at me

The only memory is us kissing in the moonlight

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

Oh, oh, oooh, oh

I can’t remember to forget you
