La ciencia tiene una explicación para la tristeza que provoca la canción "Someone like you" de la británica Adele. La razón sería la repetición de una nota llamada "appoggiatura" que produce alzas y bajas de tensión en el cerebro, lo que desencadena el llanto.
"Esto genera tensión en el oyente", dijo Martin Guhn, psicólogo de la Universidad de British Columbia, quien investigó el efecto de esta nota en 2007.
Además, la articulación de la voz, los sonidos y timbres sorpresivos y el patrón armónico de la canción, alteran el sistema parasimpático del organismo, haciendo que el cerebro lo interprete como una provocación triste.
A lo anterior, se le suma la letra, que trata sobre una mujer que no ha superado la ruptura con su pareja y que promete encontrar a alguien como él, dice Guhn.

I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, "
Yeah
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah
Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Never mind, I'll find someone like you

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah
