"Soy de Volar" is a song by Spanish pop group Dvicio, taken from their third studio album Impulso (2020). The song was written by Antonio Escobar, Juan José Martín, Martín Ceballos and Yoby Zuñiga, and produced by Escobar and Pablo Cebrián. A duet version of "Soy de Volar" with Argentine singer Lali was released as the first single from the anniversary edition of Impulso on September 25, 2020, by Sony Music Spain.

Background

[edit]

"Soy de Volar" is a very romantic song that takes the group to their original sound. According to Lali, "it is a super love song that talks about encouragement."[1] When asked by Billboard Argentina about working with Lali, Andrés Ceballos answered:

To us, Lali is a very charismatic and dope artist, and very versatile on stage, but we didn't know the impact that she had; we didn't know how much people she could move. As you know, my brother and I are half-Argentine, but we didn't grow up watching her on TV, so we didn't have that feeling that she was so present in our lives. It's incredible how, even before the song was out, her "hacker"-fans were already trying to leak it. It's incredible how hard they work; I think [collaborating with Lali] has been a hit.[2]

Music video

[edit]

A music video directed by Willy Rodríguez was released on September 25, 2020, on Dvicio's YouTube channel. In the clip, Lali and Andrés Ceballos move in together. With the rest of the Dvicio members, Lali and Andrés take boxes with their stuff to their new apartment while they have fun. At the end of the video, Lali and Andrés have a romantic date and end up kissing. The video was shot using a single continuous tracking shot.[1]
