Sofía Ellar: "They paid me in beer to sing, with luck, 20 euros"

• The Final Interview The last of EL MUNDO

What music was important in your life at the age of 16? It's going to seem like I'm showing off but I always had my baggage.

I followed trends, I had my time listening to Porta, but at 16 there was the music of my parents: the Smiths, Buddy Holly, Beatles, country and Nashville, singer-songwriter music, Silvio... At 16, I think that what was most typical of me was the Italian classical song. Celentano, Rita Pavone...?

From Celentano, from Claudio Baglioni, from Lucio Battisti... And it shows to me, because they were singers with many changes of tempo, a very dramatic thing.

And, when I go to record, those same tempo changes come out on their own and the producers ask me, girl, what have you heard in your life? Conservatory, classical training?

No. Well, I was in ballet, they put me last so that they wouldn't see me, I was in a choir,

And there it was because I had my little voice, and they gave me guitar lessons, but I suspect that the purpose of my parents was to keep us entertained, to lose sight of us for a while. Was music something that you shared with your friends?

Did you have a group in high school or something? I never had groups.

My friends saw me as the little monkey who, when we went out for drinks, they said "come on Sof, take out the guitar and sing".

You went to a place called Keeper, they paid me in beers and, if I was lucky, they gave me 20 euros.

And at first I loved that.

Then it started to put me in a bad mood, hey, I want to go out for drinks like anyone else, I'm not here to have fun.

At least, among the boys that we did not play. Well, that is my little brother, who plays that you die,

that he is very handsome, and that he gives him a lot of nose.

I know that his friends say: "If Álvaro comes out tonight I won't go, there's no way anyone will listen to you."

He has a huge heart, for the record. New songs: what do you like about them? I like them to be an album, to tell a story.

I'd like to be like Adele, who has banned shuffle.

I like that they appeal to everyone, to the very young people who follow me but also to their parents.

Even my parents, although they have complained because on this album I sing two tacos. Tacos of the fuckin' shit type, or tacos of the shit in the fucking etcetera type? It's a “what the hell is this”.

Nothing terrible, but it has to do with the idea of ​​the album, which responds to the fact that I was missing a bit of the essence of Sofía, which is something more complex than a song.

It's a "I've come to tell you something."

Many songs follow a similar scheme: a joyful approach, an anguished knot and an ending in which I free myselfIn the first video, you appear at first very depressed due to what seems to be heartbreak.

Is that self-parody, autobiography? It's pure realism, what can I do?

Although there is also a lot of interpretation.

I love acting and that's why Mademoiselle Madame exists, who is a theatrical alter ego that I have built for myself.

I wrote to the boy who appears in the video to play the role and he told me: "I just don't know how to act."

And I told him not to worry, "I'll take you."

Now we are very good friends. How have you been friends in these years?

Do you keep old friends, have you made important new friends? I keep them.

And I have also experienced that there are people who came to sweeten my pill and called me

when he had never been interested in me. How to survive with that image of a good girl, a bit of a hippie, in this so sexualized and challenging pop?

There are always cycles, right?

moments of hard music and others of intimate music.

Guetta moments and

moments .

I only care about being myself.

Although that includes maturing and changing.
