CONTENTS SUMMARY
Bailando Por Ahi (Dancing Around)
Ayer la vi
Ayer la vi desde hace mucho tiempo y
Con sus amigas en una calle de Madrid
Me arrepiento tanto de haberte dicho adiós
Yesterday I saw her
Yesterday I saw her after a long time and
With her friends on a street in Madrid
I regret so much that I told you goodbye

This song is a classic story of seeing your ex out and realizing you made a huge mistake! Juan Magan spots a woman he used to date dancing with her friends on a street in Madrid, and it all comes rushing back. He says, "Me arrepiento tanto de haberte dicho adiós" (I so regret saying goodbye to you), remembering their time together as "los días más felices para mí" (the happiest days for me).

He watches her from the bar, trying to act cool, but he's totally captivated. He finally gets the courage to approach her, whispering in her ear and even offering to follow her on Twitter. But just as he's making his move, surprise! "Llegó su novio ya" (Her boyfriend arrived). There's a bit of a confrontation, but our singer is confident she'd rather be with him. He even gives the new boyfriend some advice: "Si no la vas a cuidar échate pa'atras tra" (If you're not going to take care of her, step back).

Te Voy A Esperar (I'm Going To Wait For You)
He soñado tantas veces cómo sería mi vida contigo
Y es que yo me siento como iluminado, enamorado
Tú me quieres, yo te quiero
Entonces por qué no estar juntos
I've dreamed so many times how my life would be with you
And it's that I feel illuminated, in love
You love me, I love you
So why not be together

Feel the sparks fly in this vibrant Latin-dance anthem! "Te Voy A Esperar" paints a cinematic picture of two hearts that have already imagined a lifetime together. Juan Magán and Belinda trade lines filled with sunshine, rain-drenched dancing, and the electric jolt of love at first sight. Every verse repeats the reassuring promise “Te voy a esperar” (I’m going to wait for you), turning patience into an act of joyful confidence rather than longing.

The song celebrates unwavering devotion: no matter the distance or setbacks, time stops without the other person, yet hope never does. With pulsing beats and playful chemistry, the singers invite us to walk hand in hand, conquer the world, and chase dreams side by side. It’s an upbeat reminder that true love is willing to pause the clock until both hearts can shine together.

Se Vuelve Loca (She Goes Crazy)
Apasionada, por la noche iluminada
De alcohol y de sustancias que sintetizadas
La ponen mal, le hacen sentir bien pero está tan mal
Que no la puedes ya ni rescatar, y se nos va
Passionate, through the illuminated night
By alcohol and substances that, synthesized
They mess her up, make her feel good but she's so messed up
That you can't even rescue her anymore, and she's slipping away

“Se Vuelve Loca” is a high-energy electro-latino track where Juan Magán paints the neon-lit world of a young woman who lives for the night. Surrounded by music, alcohol, and sustancias sintetizadas (synthetic drugs), she slips into a dizzying cycle of instant pleasure. The repeated hook “tra, tra, tra” mirrors the hypnotic pull of the dance floor, while “se muerde la boca” and her bold attitude show a blend of seduction and recklessness that makes her the center of attention.

Beneath the catchy beat, the lyrics carry a warning. The girl believes she is in control, but the nightlife slowly cages her “en lo escuro,” draining her strength until she can’t fight back. Magán contrasts the thrill of the party with the emptiness that follows, reminding listeners that chasing a temporary high can leave lasting scars. The result is a song that’s as fun to dance to as it is thought-provoking, perfect for learning Spanish slang while reflecting on the fine line between freedom and self-destruction.

Mal De Amores (Lovesickness)
Te he llamado en ocasiones
Y tú nunca has respondido
Deja a un lado el mal de amores
No es para tanto lo que pido
I've called you sometimes
And you've never answered
Put heartbreak aside
What I'm asking isn't such a big deal

“Mal De Amores” is the sound of a restless heart on the dance floor. Over a contagious electrolatino beat, Juan Magán calls the person he loves, begging them to leave their heartbreak behind and simply stand by his side. He admits to past mistakes—promises he could not keep—and confesses how lonely and even frightened he feels at night without them. Yet the song never sinks into despair; the rhythm and repeated “y y y” chants turn his plea into a vibrant invitation to reconnect.

At its core, the track mixes regret with celebration. Magán’s lyrics swing between remorseful apologies (“Te ruego, te pido perdón”) and playful flirtation (“Mami, vente conmigo”), showing that love can be complicated but also exhilarating. He is convinced that one dance, one shared moment, can heal old wounds and transform “mal de amores” (heartache) into pure joy. The result is a catchy reminder that sometimes the best cure for romantic blues is to turn up the music, move together, and start anew.

No Sigue Modas (Doesn't Follow Trends)
Dj
D.O
Juan Magán
We'll oversell
DJ
DO
Juan Magan
We'll oversell

The title line is the whole character sketch: Ya todo le da igual no sigue modas (she doesn't care about anything anymore, she doesn't follow trends). She still gets dressed up, she still goes out, and then she spends the night dancing by herself. Magán never explains why. Exhausta de evasivas, cansada de mentiras (worn out by excuses, tired of lies) is as close as the song gets to a reason, and it turns up as a passing aside rather than a big reveal.

What the singer wants back is oddly modest for a club record: Ven a bailar conmigo, tú no bailes sola (come dance with me, don't dance alone). He asks Dime quien te hizo daño para que estes tan sola (tell me who hurt you, for you to be this alone) and never gets an answer, which is probably the point. The track announces its own genre partway through, Electro latino, and that tension is what makes it work: the words are about a woman who has stopped caring, and the beat under them will not let you stand still. The wordless hook ends up carrying the feeling that the verses keep declining to name.

Si No Te Quisiera (If I Didn't Love You)
Maxi es tan guapa
Es tan bonita
Tiene una cara de princesita
Mi bomboncito de carne y hueso
Maxi is so pretty
She's so beautiful
She has a little princess face
My little candy of flesh and bone

“Si No Te Quisiera” bursts with sunshine and affection. Over a vibrant Latin‐electro beat, Juan Magán, Belinda, and Lápiz Conciente trade verses that celebrate a love so powerful it literally fuels their music. Juan praises his crush as guapa, intelligent, and fiercely independent, then admits that every note he sings is proof of how deeply she lives in his mind. Belinda flips the script, calling Juan the spark that lights her up when her “lights are off,” while Lápiz promises everyday romance – from ice cream dates to growing old together.

At its heart, the song is a joyful reminder that true inspiration comes from genuine emotion. If they didn’t love each other, they ask, how could they possibly sing with such passion? Their answer is simple: love turns feelings into melody, turning a catchy dance track into a lively declaration of devotion.

24/7
We love Asere
Esta noche salí
A vacilar
Con la combi nueva
We love Asere
I went out tonight
to hesitate
with the new combi

This track is Juan Magán's electro-latino take on a night out with no strings attached. The hook says it plainly: "La baby le mete las 24/7, hace lo que ella quiere desde los 17" ("the girl goes at it 24/7, she does what she wants since she was 17") — a woman who has been calling her own shots since she was a teenager, and isn't about to stop now.

The verses fill in the scene: "Esta noche salí a vacilar con la combi nueva" ("tonight I went out to party with the new crew") sets a full moon night in motion, and by the second verse she's telling him straight, "No creo en el amor desde mi última relación" ("I don't believe in love since my last relationship") — she's fine, she's dangerous, and she's not interested in anything serious. The bridge repeats that stance from her own mouth: "Que es preferible ser libre" ("that it's better to be free"). It's a dance-floor anthem about independence and living in the moment, not a love song.

Usted (You)
Me dijeron por ahí que la volvieron a ver
La volvieron a ver
Con un tipo diferente cada noche
Yo confiaba en usted
They told me that they saw her again
They saw her again
With a different guy every night
I trusted you

“Usted” is a fiery conversation between two ex-lovers who are done playing nice. Over a catchy electro-latin beat, Juan Magán and Mala Rodríguez trade verses like verbal ping-pong, accusing each other of cheating, lying, and pretending to be the victim. He has heard rumors that she goes out with a different guy every night, while she fires back that he was no innocent angel either. Both singers show a mix of hurt pride and newfound confidence: “Ya no sé si volver a creerte” and “No me des lecciones de amor.”

The heart of the song is about self-respect and moving on. Instead of begging for forgiveness, each voice draws a clear line: they refuse to drown “en el lodo” (in the mud) of a toxic relationship, choosing freedom over endless drama. For English learners, the lyrics are packed with everyday Spanish expressions like “Ojos que no ven, corazón que no siente” and playful slang such as “ronear” (to show off) or “bobo” (fool). It is a rhythmic reminder that love can be messy, but standing up for yourself can feel irresistibly empowering.

No Bailes Sola (NSM25) (Don't Dance Alone (NSM25))
Ya no sonrié más, se arregla to-
¡Electrolatino!
Por fin ya sonrió, no está tan sola
Porque ella comprendió que ya llegó la hora
I don't smile anymore, everything is fixed
Electrolatino!
Finally she smiled, she is not so alone
Because she understood that the time has come

Get ready to move with Juan Magán and Lucho RK's "No Bailes Sola (NSM25)"! This song is all about a woman who's finally breaking free and ready to live her best life. She's gone from not smiling much to finally grinning, realizing "ya llegó la hora de hacer su vida" [the time has come to live her life]. She's ditching the bad habits, no longer mixing "weed con bebida" [weed with drinks], and just wants to dance!

Juan Magán sees her out in Madrid, looking a bit lonely, and immediately wants to dance with her. He's inviting her to let loose and enjoy herself, telling her "Ven a bailar conmigo, tú no bailes sola" [Come dance with me, don't dance alone]. There's a playful, flirtatious vibe here, with lines like "Si te prende' me activo, si lo pides te lo pongo" [If you get turned on, I get active; if you ask for it, I'll give it to you]. He even jokes about posting her photo on Instagram! It's a fun, carefree track about finding joy and connection on the dance floor, especially after a tough time.

Bye
Ya, ya, ya
Tengo que decir que tú no me dejaste, no
Fue un favor lo que me hiciste
Ahora estoy mejor, después que tú te fuiste
Now, now, now
I have to say that you didn't leave me, no
It was a favor what you did me
Now I'm better, after you left

"Bye" is a breakup anthem that flips the script: instead of mourning the split, Juan Magán insists he's better off. The chorus repeats the same message like a mantra: you didn't leave me, you did me a favor.

The verses fill in the bravado. He's out at night, numbing any leftover pain with pills and alcohol, moving on with someone new just to make his ex jealous. Kidd Keo's verse turns the tables, describing the other person now full of regret, unable to sleep, wishing they could go back.

It's a song about performing confidence after heartbreak: the "I'm fine" you tell yourself and everyone else, whether or not it's fully true yet.
