For the Uruguayan singer-songwriter Jorge Drexler, "love was invented" 1.6 billion years ago by two cells that came together and eventually gave way to humanity.

The artist, who is a doctor by profession, explains in an interview with Carmen Aristegui that he sometimes turns to astrophysics and the sciences for inspiration in creating his music due to "the poetic aspects of science" that not everyone can see.
