 The song emerged from a musical controversy with Lorenzo Morales.Many artists had covered the song include Carlos Vives, Grupo Niche, Ray Conniff, Gran Pachanga, Los Joao, La Sonora Dinamita, Julio Iglesias, Tulio Zuloaga, and Alfredo Gutiérrez.The title of the song alludes metaphorically to the weather phenomenon, in which a cold front clashes with warm air, producing heavy storms and torrential rains; the cold drop is occasionally apparent near the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
