Las Pastillas del Abuelo moved Argentines once again. This time, the group led by Piti Fernández dedicated a song to Lionel Messi on the occasion of his last World Cup. The track, already circulating on social media, has a particularity: it establishes a direct bridge with the song the band had already written for Diego Maradona.
The lyrics, full of emotion, review the career of the Rosario native and his bond with the national team, in a tone that mixes nostalgia and pride. «It’s a tribute to Messi, but also to all of us who have always supported him,» the singer explained in an interview.
The most striking thing is the connection with Maradona. The band already had a song dedicated to the number 10, and now the new track seems to be a sort of continuation. «They are two giants, each with their own style, but they represent the same thing: the passion for the Argentine jersey,» Fernández added.
Fans quickly made the song go viral, which already has thousands of streams. Some say the song is ideal to listen to before each World Cup match. Meanwhile, Messi remains focused in Qatar, but surely such a detail does not go unnoticed.
Without a doubt, Las Pastillas del Abuelo managed to capture the feeling of an entire country that dreams of seeing Messi lift the Cup. And by the way, remember Diego, who from heaven must be singing at the top of his lungs.
