Composition
editMirada is a regional Mexican album, with incorporations of alternative rock.[5] "Quiero Dormir Cansado" is a surf rock cover of Mexican singer Emmanuel's song of the same name,[6] while "Atención" is described by Cornejo as a "dance-y" track due to its time signature being at 4
4 instead of 3
4, a common time signature used in corridos tumbados.[5]
