Sofia is written by Spanish-German artist Alvaro Soler. The song is about being okay after breaking up with a significant other, in Alvaro’s case this is Sofia. The song has distinct instruments such as a guitar, xylophone, and percussive instruments like claps and a beat.  I found the song when I visited a friend in Madrid, Spain while I was studying abroad. The reason I chose this song is because I think it’s not as common to find songs about being okay after breaking up with someone, especially in this upbeat fashion and more pop song.
