How did “Your reason for being” come about?

“The song arises in that time where we were kept at home. I grabbed a guitar that had four strings and started to make some chords. At one point it occurred to me to add voices to that melody, I added the voices and called Pedro Irigaray, who is the one who wrote the lyrics. And I tell him ‘look, I have this lyrics, which reminds me of something between (saving the distances) The Beatles and Crosby, Stills and Nash. Then, At a crossroads with León I tell him ‘I have this song’, I sent it to him and he liked it a lot. And I told him that I thought it was good to do it together with Gustavo“Mollo said in a press release.

For his part, Santaolalla revealed: “The project to make this song arose from a message that my great friend Ricardo Mollo sent me showing me a song he had written with a high school classmate. A beautiful letter, different from the letters that Ricardo does, which also have a very particular beauty. I have always been very captivated by the lyrics that he wrote, which have something more surreal, more different. This is more direct lyrics, and it’s very nice what the song talks about. In these times, both in the world and in our country, it is a song that talks about very important things. Preserve, develop and create your desires, your universe and your world, and make that your flag.”

“I received an already beautiful version sung by Ricardo and making his own duets, and suddenly, when the possibility of doing it occurs produced by Gustavo Santaolalla and sung for three voices, it always reminded me of Crosby Stills and Nash, because the song is for that. I am very happy and very happy to share with Gustavo and Ricardo Mollo this beautiful song that I hope you like.”, pointed out, in turn, León Gieco.
