"Mil Años Luz" (transl. "a thousand light years") is a song by Argentine singer Lali, included on her debut album A Bailar, released independently on 21 March 2014. The track was written by Lali, Luis Burgio, Gustavo Novelo, and Pablo Akselrad, and produced by the latter three as the production team 3musica. In November 2014, Lali signed with Sony Music Argentina, and the song was officially released as the album's third single.

Background and release

Lali performed "Mil Años Luz" on 19 November 2014 during a live appearance on the Susana Giménez show.[2] At that point, she was wrapping up her first year as a solo artist, which included five sold-out shows at the Opera Theatre in Buenos Aires and a Latin American tour.[3] The same month, she transitioned from being an independent artist to signing with Sony Music.[4] Finally, on 10 February 2015, a live performance music video for the song was released on Lali's YouTube channel.

Lyrics and composition

"Mil Años Luz" blends pop with dubstep and electronic music, driven by a high-energy beat and a danceable groove.[1][5] Lyrically, the song is about letting go and embracing the moment.[6] Live performances of the track typically feature elaborate choreography and lighting effects that amplify its vibrant, party-like atmosphere.[5][6]

Music video

The official music video for "Mil Años Luz" premiered on 10 February 2015. The clip showed a multi-angle live performance from the A Bailar Tour and featured Lali dancing alongside her team in a sleek, visually dynamic setting.[3][2]

Live performances

Lali first performed "Mil Años Luz" on television during her appearance on Susana Giménez in 19 November 2014.[3][2] She later included the song in high-profile events such as the opening night of the twenty-fifth season of Showmatch, where she stood out for her set's striking visual effects, including a dramatic use of lights projected over a large dress she wore for the performance. The show mixed techno and pop elements, with Lali delivering a choreography-heavy routine that became one of the highlights of the night.[7] She also performed the song at the 17th Annual Premios Gardel, where her performance was among the most anticipated and praised of the evening.[6] That night, she won the awards for Best New Pop Artist and Best Female Pop Album.[6]
