expiran — expire
Expiran is the third-person plural form of the verb expirar, which means "to expire". It's a fantastic word for English speakers as it's a direct cognate, making it easy to recognize and remember.
In the song, Sebastián Yatra sings the powerful line, "Amores como el nuestro no expiran" (Loves like ours don't expire). He uses a word typically associated with a deadline or a product's shelf life to declare that their love is timeless and will never end, creating a very romantic and memorable metaphor.
TBT is a vibrant reggaeton throwback to a love that simply refuses to stay in the past. Sebastián Yatra, Rauw Alejandro, and Manuel Turizo sing from the point of view of a man who is done pretending to be “just friends.” He knows his ex is dating someone new, yet her mind keeps wandering back to him every time she kisses the other guy. With playful references to social-media acronyms (TBT, TNT, BCC, ATT), the track urges her to turn the current, unsatisfying relationship into nothing more than a nostalgic Throwback Thursday post.
The chorus becomes an irresistible invitation: “Atrévete, vete, conviértelo en un TBT” – Dare to leave him, make it a TBT. The singers blend seduction and sincerity, confessing that Cupid struck them hard and they cannot move on. They promise passion, sleepless nights, and a rekindling of the chemistry that once “exploded” like dynamite. Under the catchy beat lies a clear message: why settle for a love you can’t fully feel when the real spark is still alive elsewhere?
