Derretía is the past tense of the verb derretir, which literally means 'to melt'. It's a beautifully descriptive word used to express being overcome with emotion.
In this song, the singer says, "De tus besos y abrazos me derretia" (I would melt from your kisses and hugs). She uses this metaphor to describe how she was once completely captivated and weakened by her lover's affection, painting a powerful picture of past infatuation.
Ready to break up with heartbreak? “Ya No Quiero,” the fiery pop anthem by Mexican sibling duo Jesse & Joy, captures that triumphant instant when you finally toss your ex’s photo into a drawer and slam it shut. The lyrics recall the sugary compliments and almost-magical kisses that once made the singer melt, only to reveal how empty they really were. Instead of nursing the pain, she calls out the lies, admits she pretended his kisses were amazing, and proudly stamps her heart “healed.”
The chorus is pure liberation: “Ya no quiero ver tu foto en mi buró, vete que ya te tengo olvidado en un cajón.” With every repeat, the song transforms bitterness into bold self-love, turning sorrow into a dance-along declaration of independence. Play it loud when you need that extra push to clean out emotional clutter, grow wiser, and start fresh with a smile.
Jesse & Joy are a Mexican brother-and-sister pop duo from Mexico City. Jesse Huerta plays piano and guitar, while his younger sister Joy takes the lead vocals. The pair started writing songs together as teenagers and signed with Warner Music in 2005.
They released their debut album in 2006 and quickly became one of the biggest acts in Latin pop. Their song "¡Corre!," from the 2011 album ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro?, won Song of the Year and Record of the Year at the Latin Grammys. Jesse & Joy have since won six Latin Grammys in total, plus a Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album.
