"Boomerang" is a song recorded by Argentine singer and actress Lali Espósito serving as the third single for her second studio album Soy and was released on September 4, 2016. The song is a Spanish version of the original by Ayak Thiik and Will Simms, written by Espósito along with the music producers Pablo Akselrad, Luis Burgio and Gustavo Novello, and was produced by Will Simms and 3musica
Espósito had confirmed the name of the track in an interview in Animales Sueltos on March 11, 2016. It was released along with the full album on May 20, 2016 and was sent to radio on September 4, 2016 as its third single. Lyrically, the song talks about the constant criticism and fallacies that Espósito must face. Facing with these situations, the teen idol warns that everything returns like a boomerang.
Espósito performed a medley of "Boomerang", "Unico" and "Soy" at Susana Giménez on August 7, 2016. On August 13, 2016 the singer performed the song along with "Unico", "Soy", "Mil Años Luz" and "A Bailar" at the charity TV special Un Sol para los Chicos.

"Boomerang" is also part of Espósito's second worldwide tour's setlist, titled Soy Tour.
On the previous week of the video's release, Espósito had shared small advances trough her Instagram account where it can be seen a lot of transformations, going from brunette to blonde, female to male, humor and with the society's appearances. Directed by Juan Ripari, the music video made its premiere on September 7, 2016 on Vevo. In the video, Espósito mocks and laughs at fame, her behaviors in the press and situations in society. With different characters of society, the singer shows how they consume as true information media and social networks and makes the whole video like a parody.
