A message that Shakira has dedicated to Carlos Vives on his Instagram profile has caused a real revolution in the comments on the publication. And it is that the Colombian artist chose some somewhat confusing words to praise the work of her friend and her professional colleague.
“Carlos, you are the poet who writes his verses with my land. An extraordinary musician and even more extraordinary your heart as a faithful friend. Artists like you appear every thousand years, so today we want to honor you. What you have done for our Colombia, Neither politicians nor philanthropists have achieved it,” the singer wrote along with a video of several images of both.

“Thank you for rescuing our folklore, and reminding us of what we were, what we are and what we can be. You have brought children, the elderly, and those who did not know our customs or speak our language a piece of us in each song And you have reminded us of everything we are worth, what we feel, and how much and with what strength we came to love. Your legacy is invaluable because it represents all of us. Keep building it for us and fly high like a condor over the mountains! I love you buddy, we love you all!” she added.
Precisely the phrase “fly high” is what has given rise to the confusion, since his followers have thought that the interpreter of the cold drop had died. “He almost gave me something with the ‘turn high'”, “I was reading the comments to find out if he died”, “with the ‘fly high’ he almost sent him to the other side”, “I thought he had died”, “did he die ?”, “Shaki, you scared us with that ‘fly high'” or “did Carlos Vives die guys?”, are some of the most repeated comments in the post. “We are so used to waiting for people to die to recognize his work, that we all thought he had passed away,” said another netizen.
