Baute, the Spanish singer-songwriter, expressed his heartfelt gratitude in an emotional Instagram post, acknowledging that the song's success goes beyond mere numbers. \"Music has always gone far beyond that: it's songs, stories, memories, people, and moments in life,\" he wrote. \"Behind that billion views, there are stories, loves, memories.\" Baute also honored Sánchez, crediting her for shaping one of Latin pop's most enduring collaborations.
