Deep bass thrums throughout the track, marching drums set a swaying rhythm, and uniquely textured guitars shimmer over the song, sometimes adding little moments of ear candy, and other times taking the lead melodies. Woods’ vocal performance is pretty and calm, adding a mesmerizing quality to this track. Fantasies of sleeping in a field or slow dancing in a kitchen float through your mind, brought on by the ethereal sounds of this smooth ballad.
“Dirán Alto” is about ignoring outside opinions and perceptions in the pursuit of living authentically with someone you love. Someone has enchanted Woods, just like this song has enchanted the listener, and she is not concerned that other people may tell her to stop or slow down. She sees a future with this person, feels a hope that makes it seem like they could fly together and never have to scrape the ground. This sweet sentiment is relatable for anyone who’s felt a romantic connection with someone. Anything from a crush, to infatuation, to full on love can make us feel weightless, and Woods captures that beautifully with “Dirán Alto.”
