Chiflado is a playful, informal way to say 'crazy', 'nuts', or 'kooky'. It's a more colorful and less common synonym for the word loco, which you'll also hear throughout the song.
In 'Un Poco Loco', the singer exclaims, "Chiflado tú me vuelves" (You drive me kooky!). This word perfectly captures the fun, slightly chaotic, and affectionate feeling of being driven mad by someone you care about, a central theme in this beloved song from the movie Coco.
Un Poco Loco is a sparkling, fast-paced tune from Pixar’s film Coco. Sung by little Miguel and the charming Héctor, it paints the picture of someone whose world is delightfully upside down. The sky is suddenly red, left is right, and every idea feels as if it has been invented on the spot. Instead of complaining, the singer celebrates this topsy-turvy outlook, confessing that it drives him “un poquititito loco.” In other words: love makes us joyfully irrational, and that is worth singing about at the top of our lungs.
Wrapped in lively Mexican rhythms, the lyrics cheer on imagination, spontaneity, and the courage to think with your feet when your head is spinning. Each playful “¡Ay, mi amor!” is both a tease and a love note, showing that true affection often means embracing another person’s wildest, most unpredictable side. By the end, we are invited to dance, laugh, and celebrate exactly how liberating it feels to be a little bit crazy together.
