El Equivocado
Ángela Aguilar
Love Beyond Judgement: Embracing the 'Wrong' Choice
The song 'El Equivocado', performed by Ángela Aguilar, is a powerful declaration of love and self-confidence. The lyrics reflect the singer’s determination to defend her relationship with Christian Nodal, challenging the criticism and doubt surrounding their union. From the very beginning, the song makes it clear that, regardless of others’ opinions, their love is genuine and doesn't need to be hidden. This message is reinforced by the repeated idea that even if the world sees him as 'the wrong one,' to her, he’s the perfect partner.
Ángela Aguilar uses the song to express the sense of safety and happiness she feels in Nodal’s arms. The lyrics highlight how he makes her feel secure and how his “craziness” enchants her. This portrayal of love as something that doesn’t follow rules or social expectations is a recurring theme in the song, emphasizing that what truly matters is the genuine feeling between them. The phrase 'el equivocado a mí me quedó perfecto' (the wrong one turned out perfect for me) reinforces the idea that, despite the criticism, she has found the right person.
Beyond being a love declaration, the song also serves as a direct response to the controversy involving Christian Nodal and Argentine singer Cazzu, which arose after Ángela and Nodal began their relationship shortly after his previous breakup. By stating 'digan lo que digan, él es el correcto' ('say what they will, he’s the right one'), Ángela reaffirms her confidence in the love she shares, making it clear that external opinions don’t shake her. Thus, the song becomes not only an expression of affection but also a manifesto of emotional independence and self-confidence—traits that strongly define Ángela Aguilar’s artistic style and personality.
