Can't Remember to Forget You

Last updated

"I'm going through a completely different experience right in relation to the song. The song is about that guy that just gets under your skin and you can't leave alone. I think every woman has been through that. This song is not exactly a reflection of my personal life right now."

—Shakira, explaining the lyrical meaning of the song [22]

"Can't Remember to Forget You" is an uptempo track that incorporates elements of ska and reggae and has a length of three minutes and 28 seconds.

Lyrically, the song concerns a man that Shakira cannot get off her mind, discussing how easy it is to forget how bad someone is for you when you still love them. [1] [23] The lyrics were noted by E! Online as describing a woman who will follow her man, the concept of the song is introduced in lyrics such as "keep(s) forgetting I should let you go/ But when you look at me/ The only memory is us kissing in the moonlight." [27] Lewis Corner of Digital Spy commented on the lyric; "I keep forgetting I should let you go" as the singers telling their "no-good lothario, who seems to still have a hefty grip on their hearts," continuing to say the song's lyrics are "romantic pitfall."

[1] Vibe praised the duet calling it a "powerhouse collaboration", concluding, "The she-wolf and Bajan bombshell's chemistry seeps through the bass line and their accented vocals, sure to make both stanbases happy." [32] Jason Lipshutz of Billboard noted the song as being "enjoyably grandiose", praising the "ska-punk guitar riff" and its "chunky rock arrangement." [33] 'PopjusticeSon gave the song a positive review saying, "You cannot go wrong with a bit of Shakira. You cannot go wrong with a bit of Rihanna. Two facts for you there ladies and gents." [31]

Bradley Stern of MuuMuse felt the song was not consequential, despite praising the song as something different from contemporary radio. [34] Despite saying that "elements" of the song "feel worldly and memorable", Lindsey Weber of Vulture called the song "ironically forgettable" due to Shakira's and Rihanna's vocal similarity and the "-tempo reggae-rock beat." [35] Additionally, Gerrick D. Kennedy of the Los Angeles Times said the single "could use more steam", summarising with, "Here’s one thing about hype: It’s almost impossible to live up to." [36] Claire Lobenfield of Complex wrote, "As evidenced by the title, it's a song about lingering heartache. But instead of making it a melancholic affair, the duet is full pop-rock a la Bruno Mars." [3]
