Que será corazón is a Tango written by Edgardo Blanco and composed by Jorge Dragone.
The lyrics of “Que será corazón” depict a profound narrative of attraction and love that transcends superficial beauty. The singer expresses a deep, evolving affection for someone not conventionally attractive (“No eres linda, corazón”) but who possesses an intangible quality that deeply enthralls him (“Pero tienes algo que… Algo que me vuelve loco.”). This heartfelt confession reveals love’s ability to see beyond the physical, reaching a more emotional and soulful connection.
The recurring question “¿Qué será, corazón?” serves as a poignant symbol of the enigmatic and inexplicable nature of love. It underscores the singer’s wonder and curiosity about what specifically about his beloved has captivated him so intensely. The repeated mentions of not knowing (“No sé”, “Tal vez”, “Tampoco lo sé”) reflect the mystery and unpredictability of love. The flower’s mention as a symbol of beauty also contrasts with the lover not being “linda” yet possessing more charm than a flower, emphasizing that essence surpasses appearance.
Given its creation in 1958 Argentina, a time of political and social changes, “Que será corazón” might subtly mirror the broader societal shifts towards appreciating depth over appearances. During this era, Argentina was experiencing significant transformations which could have cultivated a cultural milieu that valued authenticity and emotional depth, paralleling the themes in the lyrics.
Edgardo Blanco was a notable lyricist in the Argentine Tango scene, known for his ability to convey complex emotions and situations through his evocative writing.
