What time is it, my heart?
Manu!
How's it going, my friend?
For me
I like the sun that warms me
And it changes my skin
Your arching back
And it feels like Southern Italy
I love French noses
And Eskimo kisses
Making up words when I sing an English song
I like to say I like even if you're not supposed to
But it puts the idea across way more effectively
I love Genoa when the sea is rough
Coffee with red wine
When it's September first and feels like August 32nd
You're morning light
I like you
My serotonin
I like you
You raise my self-esteem
I like you, I like everything, I like you
More than the Mediterranean Sea
I like you
A Sunday at the stadium
I like you
With you I've got everything I need
I like you
Yeah, I like everything, I like you
Because
You're like Rome
Every road
Leads to you
Yeah, it leads to you
Eleven at night in Managua, Nicaragua
I was thinking
If you sleep 8 hours a day that's 100 days in a year
But if you were here with me we wouldn't sleep that much
Yeah, that much, yeah, that much
Head down while I was walking
I realized yesterday
That the sky starts at your feet
That things change shape
Depending on how you see them
I like that we match our energy
And even if I leave you pick me up everywhere, kinda like Radio Maria
You're morning light
I like you
My serotonin
I like you
You raise my self-esteem
I like you, I like everything, I like you
More than the Mediterranean Sea
I like you
A Sunday at the stadium
I like you
Everything else is secondary
I like you
Yeah, I like everything, I like you
Manu!
What an intense life
It's our big heart
That passes
I say
You're morning light
I like you
My serotonin
I like you
You raise my self-esteem
I like you, I like everything, I like you
More than Genoa and Bilbao
I like you
Than a sold-out concert
I like you
More than Alfa and Manu Chao
I like you
Yeah, I like everything, I like you

SONG MEANING

Picture a warm Mediterranean breeze, a radio humming with three different languages, and a heart that can’t stop making lists of everything it loves. A Me Mi Piace is Alfa’s infectious postcard of pure joy, featuring the legendary Manu Chao. Jumping playfully between Italian, Spanish, and a splash of English, the song piles up little pleasures – sun-kissed skin, Eskimo kisses, red-wine coffee, late-summer nights that feel endless – and uses them all to say one huge thing: “I like you even more than all of this.”

Every line feels like a spontaneous diary entry, reminding us that happiness often hides in everyday moments and that love has the power to crank up our self-esteem, just like a favorite song at full volume. Whether Alfa is comparing his crush to Rome (all roads lead to her) or realizing the sky starts at his feet, he keeps circling back to the chorus "Me gustas tú" – “I like you.” It is a feel-good anthem of gratitude, wanderlust, and wide-eyed affection that invites us to sing along, mix up our languages, and celebrate whatever – and whoever – makes our serotonin soar.
