It's official: Alejandro Sanz confesses what he's always kept quiet about Shakira

In the midst of promoting his new musical project, Alejandro Sanz has confessed what he has always kept quiet about Shakira. The Madrid-born singer has publicly revealed that his relationship with the Colombian artist is much closer than many thought. Although they had not collaborated for some time, they have never lost contact, and there is a real chemistry that is naturally reflected when they sing together.

This statement, made in an exclusive interview with Billboard, comes at a very special moment for both artists. What has Alejandro Sanz really said about his bond with Shakira? Why have these words caused so much anticipation among their followers?

Alejandro Sanz Confesses What He Has Always Kept Quiet About His Connection With Shakira

Alejandro Sanz and Shakira have been musically connected for more than two decades since their iconic collaboration on La tortura. This time, the reunion between the two has taken place through the song Bésame.

Although they have not met physically in the recording studio, the process has been just as intense. Through audio messages, calls, and texts, both artists have managed to shape a song that reflects their genuine connection.

"We haven't worked together in the studio. We are two very interventionist artists and want everything that happens in the songs to be controlled," the performer explains. In fact, Sanz explains that they kept "deep conversations through messages and calls," where Shakira sent him "long audio messages" with her ideas and proposals.

This way of collaborating remotely proves that true artistic chemistry can overcome any physical obstacle. "We've managed together to create something that shows the chemistry is real," the singer confirms, thus validating the authenticity of their connection.

The challenge did not end there, since both artists were very clear that they did not want to repeat successful formulas from the past. The shadow of La Tortura loomed over this new project, as any comparison was inevitable. "We were clear that after having done La tortura it was difficult to find something that was not the same as what we had already done," he confesses.

Alejandro Sanz Confesses That He Has Never Lost Contact With Shakira

One of the most surprising revelations from Alejandro Sanz has been the confirmation that he and Shakira never really lost contact. This confession disproves the speculation about a distancing between the two artists and reveals a friendship that has endured over time.

"It had been a while since we talked. I always joked with her about when we would make another song because she only collaborated with young and handsome artists," he says with his characteristic humor.

The search for the perfect song for their musical reunion was a long and thoughtful process. "We had been thinking about working together for a while, but we hadn't found the song we could identify with," he reveals.

The final result, Bésame, has exceeded all expectations precisely because it was born from that connection that both have kept over the years. The song is presented as the perfect introduction to Alejandro Sanz's new EP, showing that some artistic collaborations are destined to transcend time and circumstances.

The Artistic Rebirth Of Alejandro Sanz

Alejandro Sanz's new project, "¿Y ahora qué?", represents much more than just a collection of songs. According to the artist himself, this work arises in "a very important stage" of his life, marking the end of a musical era and the beginning of a new one. "It's an album that appears when I finish a musical era in a complicated process," he confesses.

The title of the EP is no coincidence. "Y ahora qué is the first phrase that appears in the album in Palmeras en el jardín. But it's also a phrase that is common to everyone when you're about to start something new or face a change," he explains.

The emotional depth of the project is revealed in every statement from the singer. "I needed that kind of question in my life because you can choose to stay as you are, to change...," he acknowledges, showing a vulnerability that his followers had rarely seen.

The transformative impact of this new work on Alejandro Sanz's life is undeniable. "The album brings light to my life and to that emptiness when the desire, the excitement, and the effort were gone," the artist confesses.

The confession from Alejandro Sanz about his connection with Shakira not only confirms a special relationship, but also explains the strength behind Bésame. Their shared history, their complicity, and their artistic commitment have remained strong, even as time has passed. Now that they have reunited musically, will they surprise us again with another song together?
