This is pure cheese. But it's good cheese. It has all of the essentials: catchy tune, bizarre instrumentation (is that a flute?), ridiculous lyrics, and deeply weird costumes. Oh, and boobs. Lots of boobs. Seriously, I defy you to not slightly enjoy this.
La Factoria are a duo straight out of Panama (current spiritual home of melodic reggaeton). The song's a duet, in which one of them apologises for having slept with the other one's husband. It's a musical catfight. It's awesome. The lyrics are a joy, and some kind soul has even translated them (really really badly... But you can get the gist. It's not complicated. It's a catfight.)
When I saw them live, one of them had left the band, and so the other one had to play both parts. It was the most brilliantly schizophrenic performance I have ever seen. Worthy of the Tate Modern or something.
