• Interview Macarena García: "I am very happy with Leiva"

Miguel Conejo Torres,

known to the general public as

Leiva

, is not an artist who is used to giving

personal interviews.

The singer chooses the spaces in which he participates with a dropper, but the truth is that once he decides to sit on a program he does not hesitate to give himself up and

talk about everything

that arises.

This is what happened in his last talk.

It has been on the Mexican podcast

Farid y Diego

where, beyond her music, Leiva has spoken with total naturalness about the

accident she suffered when she was 12 years old, for which she lost the sight of one eye.

A subject that has been around her for practically her entire artistic life, since there have been many times that it has been said that the singer

had a glass eye

without him having confirmed the fact.

The former member of Pereza addressed the issue to explain how he feels that he is currently fighting to stop the passage of time and eliminate scars, when it is what gives people identity.

Confessing what that

physical and emotional scar

has meant in his life as an artist, the musician gave what can be interpreted as a lesson when it comes to getting ahead and

valuing the opportunities

that do exist over those that, therefore, Whatever, they are lost.

"I had an accident, very young, when I was

12 years old I lost my left eye.

It was a very

traumatic thing for my parents, not for me,"

the artist began.

"I lost an eye

to a pellet gun

and automatically lost sight out of my left eye forever."

An accident that, due to his age, he did not experience in the same way as his parents, since "what he wanted was to get out of the hospital and

play with the ball.

They told me that I could not see out of one eye and I did not I could take charge of that dimension, that didn't fit me. So I went out to play,

I saw that the three dimensions were different,

but I wanted to live and I wanted to play".

But the truth is that the change

did condition the life

of that 12-year-old boy who, although he did not lose his optimism or his desire to live and play, did have to

adapt to his new situation.

A turning point in his life that made him get closer to music and that, seen with perspective, has led him to be where he is.

"And now I realize how important that accident has been for me, with music. Because I went through a time in which I went through a process in which I couldn't do things and

I had to calm down my stillness from everything

and I started connecting with music pretty early. After that traumatic thing, that's probably

why

the three of us are sitting here right now."
