Greetings to this wonderful community. Every so often, I come back when I can and have time to do the things I enjoy, like being here. My job has kept me busy, and when I get home, the first thing I do is go to sleep. However, I remain steadfast. On this occasion, I bring you a very special song.

The Argentine band La Mosca Tsé-Tsé is associated with celebration, fusion, and contagious optimism. However, hidden within their musical selection is a treasure that, while retaining their characteristic danceable rhythm, explores the emotional complexities of love: the song “Todos tenemos un amor” (We All Have Love). Released in June 2001 as the second single from the album Buenos muchachos, this piece quickly established itself as one of the group's great anthems, resonating with a truth that is universal.

The lyrics of “Todos poseemos un amor” present a poetic and nostalgic narrative focused on a complicated and absorbing relationship. It portrays a woman—the “almost partner, almost confidante, almost everything, almost crazy”—whose existence is both essential and harmful. The speaker waits for her every “Monday at dawn,” caught in a whirlwind of love, resentment, and madness: “We love each other, we despise each other, we get drunk.” Not long ago, I experienced something similar, a person who kept my mind spinning, and I always felt dizzy, both emotionally and physically. The simplicity of the chorus perfectly encapsulates that vital paradox: the person who gives us meaning is often the one who takes away our calm. La Mosca's lead singer, Guillermo Novellis, has said that this song is about the complexity of the artist's life, constantly traveling, and how difficult it is to maintain a relationship. The line “God gives me and love takes it away” sums up that tension between professional success and emotional instability.

Although the essence is undoubtedly Latin rock and pop, the rhythm incorporates elements of ska, cumbia, and murga that inevitably encourage dancing, even when the central theme is a breakup. The tempo is fast and vibrant, creating an ingenious contrast between the sadness conveyed by the lyrics and the happiness evoked by the melody. This appealing rhythm is the band's trademark, transforming personal suffering into a collective celebration. The inclusion of brass instruments (such as trumpets and trombones) is crucial in providing that festive and unique nuance that enhances the composition. A beautiful song that speaks to us about the trials and tribulations of life, how we must face emotional problems and overcome them.
