adicta — addicted

Adicta means "addicted" and it's an interesting word choice in this song because it describes a powerful, almost uncontrollable feeling.

In the lyrics, the singer confesses, "Pero me hice adicta a vos y no exagero" (But I became addicted to you and I'm not exaggerating). This reveals a deep, intense emotional dependency, elevating the typical love song sentiment to something more profound and captivating.

Silvestre Dangond, with Emilia, brings us a song about a secret, undeniable attraction that's about to boil over! The lyrics tell a story of two people who clearly have strong feelings for each other, even though one of them is trying to deny it, and the other is already in a relationship.

Silvestre sings about how he treated her so well, but she treated him "como el resto" [like everyone else], always hiding him. Yet, she'd text him "bebé, lo siento" [baby, I'm sorry] afterwards. He knows she likes him, even though she wants to deny it. He just wants to kiss her, "quitarte ese vestido rojo" [take off that red dress], and stop imagining things. Even though she has someone else, he plans to "robarte" [steal you] tonight to satisfy their mutual desire. Emilia echoes this feeling, saying she's already put on the red dress he likes and that she's become addicted to him. She admits, "Quise alejarme, pero es que no puedo" [I wanted to get away, but I can't], because she'd "muero" [die]. Both of them acknowledge that what they feel together is different from what they feel with their current partners. It's a passionate plea for a night of stolen moments, full of longing and a little bit of rebellion!
