LOS DOS Lyrics in English by Grupo Frontera, Morat
Parceros is a popular slang term from Colombia that means "friends," "buddies," or "mates." It's derived from the word aparceros, which refers to partners in a business or on a farm.
In this song, the Mexican band Grupo Frontera gives a shout-out to their collaborators, the Colombian band Morat, saying, "Y los parceros de Morat" (And the buddies from Morat). It's a cool example of cultural exchange in music and a word you'll definitely want to know if you listen to a lot of Latin pop!
This song is a perfect soundtrack for a specific kind of heartbreak: the kind where you refuse to accept it's over. The singer's world has been "al revés" [upside down] for a month, but he's still acting like his ex could walk back in at any moment. Her dress is still in his drawer, and he imagines them going out on a Friday to their favorite bar. He's deep in denial, admitting he's "Jugando a que no me pasa nada" [Playing like nothing is wrong].
The whole situation is pretty miserable. He bluntly says, "Qué mierda estar borracho sin ti" [What shit it is to be drunk without you]. The most painful part is how he tortures himself. He keeps listening to a "maldita nota de voz" [damned voice note] where she says goodbye. He knows he should delete it, but he can't bring himself to do it, saying tomorrow he'll want to hear it again. It's a cycle of pretending and pain, all while he's "Ahogándome en alcohol para salvar al corazón" [Drowning in alcohol to save my heart].
