You Hive Iniciative [Video Music Review] ESP/ENG

Les voy a contar un secreto... ¿Sabían que Chayanne es mi novio? 🤣 bueno en realidad para nadie es un secreto que Chayanne es el novio de todas las mujeres de mi edad en Latinoamérica, y que de hecho hay una broma recurrente que consiste en decirle a nuestros hijos alguna vez que Chayanne, el famoso y guapo cantante puertorriqueño, es en realidad su verdadero padre (yo lo hacía con mis hijas y ellas se enojaban 😄) pero en realidad Chayanne no solo es guapo, es un gran bailarín y cantante, pero además sus videos reflejan mucho de su personalidad y de lo que quiere transmitir en sus canciones. Para esta iniciativa me gustaría hablar de Tiempo de Vals, una canción muy icónica porque es prácticamente el himno de todas las jovencitas quinceañeras, que usualmente suelen bailar esta canción en el tradicional baile de su fiesta.

I'm going to tell you a secret... Did you know that Chayanne is my boyfriend? 🤣 Well, actually, it's no secret that Chayanne is the boyfriend of all the women my age in Latin America, and in fact, there's a recurring joke that consists of telling our children sometimes that Chayanne, the famous and handsome Puerto Rican singer, is actually their real father (I did it with my daughters and they got angry 😄) But in reality, Chayanne is not only handsome, he is a great dancer and singer, but also his videos reflect a lot of his personality and what he wants to convey in his songs. For this initiative I would like to talk about Tiempo de Vals, a very iconic song because it is practically the anthem of all the young women of my age, who usually tend to dance to this song in the traditional dance of their party.

The video may seem a little bizarre, with disjointed images and random expressionless characters, as if they were mannequins or dolls, but I think that's really what they are, dolls. What the video conveys to me is as if we were in a toy store watching the dolls come to life to the beat of the music. It conveys innocence and romanticism at the same time. Could that be why over time it became an icon of 15th birthday parties?

The only human character we see on stage is Chayanne himself, but we see him taking on various roles: as a soldier, a prince, or a pirate, perhaps because music leads us to fantasize, especially this type of music, the waltzes that were usually the protagonists of the great Victorian balls, where people lived together and fell in love, but also for us it is a visual delight to see Chayanne in all these roles 😍.

The background is completely black so that the characters stand out, so this confirms my hypothesis that it is a fantasy or a dream, it was probably a dream of mine haha ​​🤣 No, but seriously, being a fairly simple video in theory, it conveys a lot of feelings and that is why it is beautiful.

Then we see the masked characters and then we see them without clothes, as a metaphor for what life itself is in society, many times life or circumstances force us to use masks that hide our feelings or emotions, but underneath all those poses, masks and clothing is our true essence, what we are and what we would like to convey, in addition the video is also like an expression of art, people are shown not only as dolls or mannequins but as museum art pieces.

There's not much else to say about this video, except that I love it for obvious reasons and that probably all Latin American women will agree with me 🤗. I'll leave the video here for you to analyze at your leisure, and since art is subjective, each person will probably give it a different interpretation.
