Erizarte comes from the verb erizar, which literally means 'to make stand on end' or 'to bristle'. In the song, Manuel Turizo sings "Cantarte al oído y ver tu piel al erizarte", which translates to "Sing in your ear and see your skin get goosebumps".
It's a beautifully descriptive and intimate word that captures a powerful physical reaction to romance or music. Learning this word helps you express a specific feeling that goes beyond just saying something is exciting or beautiful.
This song is one big, romantic sales pitch! Manuel Turizo is trying to convince a woman to give him a chance. He knows she's been hurt by someone who "no supo valorar lo que tenías para dar" (didn't know how to value what you had to give) and he positions himself as the perfect guy to help her love again.
He's not shy about what he wants. He lays it all out, from classic romantic gestures like sending flowers and writing "mil canciones de amores" (a thousand love songs) to more intense promises like bringing her a star from the sky. He's very direct, admitting he's looking for "una lady como tú" (a lady like you) and wants her to fall in love with him just as hard as he's falling for her. He even gets a little spicy, talking about kissing her and dreaming of more, but he quickly adds, "Te quiero pero tu cuerpo también me provoca" (I love you but your body also provokes me), trying to balance his passion with his sweet intentions.
