The concert of the Canarian artist was presented as one of the highlights of this year’s Pilar Festival, especially for the youngest, and the truth was that The Quevedo phenomenon, although many do not understand it, passed through Zaragoza just as it is doing in the rest of Spain and the world, devastating.
The artist of the moment showed up on time for his appointment, dressed completely in black and wearing sunglasses that he took off mid-concert, while he put a little gadget in his pants. Quevedo carries the entire weight of the show on his shoulders. Not a single more musician, no instrument and no dancer in what the most purists would not consider even a concertquite the opposite of more than 10,000 spectators who have packed the place, who gave themselves from the first moment to the fashionable boy. Such was the crowding that the last to arrive could not even enter the main tent and had to settle for following the performance on the giant screens.
«Good evening, Zaragoza», the canary has introduced himself and from that moment Quevedo has delighted those present with his string of hits almost non-stop, with the only choreography of him bouncing from one side of the stage to the other without stopping. The audience, mostly teenagers, was discounting from the list the songs that Quevedo was addressing one by one the canary and listing those that were yet to come. TAll of them, full of pre-recorded sounds, somewhat artificial and with autotune in full force, the controversial hallmark that always accompanies the artist and that causes the paradox that one leaves with the doubt of what the canary’s voice is really like.
Success after success
However, none of that worried those present, who were able to first enjoy Quevedo’s slower and more personal songs (No signal, I’m missing something or Lambskin, among others) as if it were a warm-up.
Little by little the temperature and pace of the concert increased. «I know that you know this issue,” Quevedo assured smugly. And, indeed, that (Wanda) everyone knew it. Well, that and allbecause from that moment the public sang almost more than the Canary Islands, who love to admire his work and see how his songs have become anthems. Polaris, English Beach and Night Fell They delighted an unleashed audience. The last two, after a farewell gesture that no one believed, echoed even more in a Espacio City that seemed to tremble. “Let Zaragoza fall,” exclaimed a Quevedo who said goodbye to his first time in the city first with Columbia and, as it could not be otherwise, with an apotheosis stay final.
Many will consider that what was played this Thursday in Espacio City is not music. Whether it is or not, the truth is that it awakens the same emotions as the traditional one. Quevedo’s voice may be a lie, but the global phenomenon he has created is an irrefutable certainty. And the truth is that, if you move away from prejudices, you enjoy it.
