Vanidosa Lyrics in English by Eden Muñoz
This one is a dance-floor crush, played for fun. The singer is dazzled: "Quién la viera tan bonita" (look how pretty she is) with "una piel color vainilla" (vanilla-colored skin). One night at a dance he asks her to dance "pega'ito, pega'ito", which is the spoken form of pegadito: really close, cheek to cheek.
The chorus is all about her moves: "Cuando comienza a bailar, esa niña es otra cosa" (When she starts to dance, that girl is something else). Then the funniest line: "Que me agarren confesa'o" (let them catch me confessed), meaning he wants to have confessed his sins first, because this girl "me provoca" (tempts me). The video's backing vocals call her vanidosa, vain, which sounds like an insult but here is closer to "she knows she looks good".
It is a live recording, so there is crowd talk. "Échale, Angelio" tells a band member to go for it, and "Y arriba Guadalajara, que no se escucha el pinche grito, cabrones" is him teasing the Guadalajara crowd that he can't hear them yell. Fair warning: pinche (damn) and cabrones (bastards, here more like "you guys") are both rude words in Mexico.
