Background
"Ni T Ni Ella" is an mid-tempo latin pop song written by lvaro Torres. The song tells the story of a man's indecision about choosing between his couple and his lover, not wanting any of the two to suffer.

When he was in Los Angeles he had two female friends in the extremes of the city, and he thought they would never meet because of the distance, but finally that situation happened and he had to face it.
