Gala Nell is one of the national revelation artists in recent years. ‘Caramel eyes’, its greatest success, exceeds 11 million views in Spotify. Its good positioning in Playlists has contributed to its impact, but above all it has been its melious letter of lesbian love that has connected with a whole generation of listeners.
‘Candy eyes’, however, it is not the best gala nell song (that forgive us their fans). The indie-pop of ‘Philosofo’ deserved its impact, and the Barcelona singer-songwriter has just published her best song. And is related to ‘candy eyes’.
Gala Nell says that 2025 is the first year in which he does not celebrate the anniversary of ‘Caramel Ojitos’ with the person who dedicated the song. Therefore, he has launched ‘Costa Brava’ with the intention of honoring that relationship. ‘Costa Brava’ typically links a geographical destination to an emotion, that of falling in love, and narrates the summers of Gala Nell and his then partner in Costa Brava, specifically in Cadaqués, where good times spent but where Nell also received the “shot” of the break.
Despite his bittersweet theme, ‘Costa Brava’ chooses a sound of cheerful and festive country, although also nostalgic. It is an obvious “road song”, where we find Gala Nell and his girlfriend then listening to “Taylor records”, probably on his round trip.
In ‘Costa Brava’, the landscape of Cadaqués and Swift’s music become a distant and beautiful memory. There is no sadness in the sound of the banjo, in this self -production of Nell Gala, much less in those of those trumpets that raise the mood at the end of the song.
