Escaparate literally means "shop window" or "display case". It's a word you'd use when talking about the front of a store where products are displayed.
In this massive hit, Quevedo uses it in a very creative metaphor: "cuerpo de escaparate" (a body like a shop window). He's saying the person's body is so perfect and well-put-together that it looks like a mannequin on display, designed to be admired. It's a clever and modern compliment you won't find in your textbook!
This track drops you right in the middle of an unforgettable night out in Buenos Aires that turns into an intense whirlwind romance. Argentine producer Bizarrap sets up the beat while Spanish artist Quevedo tells the story of spotting a girl checking her makeup in her drink glass ("Se pintaba los labios y la copa como espejo" [She put on lipstick using the glass as a mirror]). Before long, she offers to show him around the city. They lose all track of time dancing, kick off at 1:00 AM, hit 3:00 AM in a flash, dance perreo until daylight, and finally crash at 10:00 AM ("nos dormimos a las diez" [we fell asleep at ten]).
The famous hook, "Quédate / Que las noches sin ti duelen" [Stay, because nights without you hurt], hits hard because the memory of that wild night is completely stuck in his head. Quevedo uses plenty of local slang and vivid imagery along the way. He calls her guacha (an Argentine slang term for a girl or chick) and playfully invites her to his home in the Canary Islands (Canarias) on a one-way ticket. There is also great banter about weekend plans: "El sábado teteo, el domingo misa" [Saturday party, Sunday church]—where teteo is slang for a street party or blowout. From riding in a maroon Mercedes to sharing an Uber back to the apartment where he jokes that he won't sing without a kiss first, the song turns a single club encounter into an obsession he is literally praying to repeat.
