It's Got To Be You

Los Retros, an artist known for blending elements of soul, funk, and Latin music, delivers a tender and heartfelt message in the song 'It's Got To Be You.' The lyrics speak to the profound and instantaneous connection one feels when they meet someone who they believe is their destined partner. The opening lines set the stage for a love-at-first-sight scenario, where the singer's emotions and heart are immediately invested upon laying eyes on their beloved. This moment of realization is powerful, described as a truth that causes both the mind and heart to 'blow,' indicating a significant and life-changing revelation.

The chorus, with its simple yet emphatic declaration 'It's got to be you,' underscores the exclusivity and certainty of the singer's feelings. The repetition of 'you' emphasizes the focus on the partner, suggesting that no one else could possibly take their place. This sentiment is further reinforced by the lines 'No one else can have my heart' and 'It feels so right to have you in my arms,' which convey a deep sense of belonging and contentment with the chosen partner.

In contrast to the often complicated journey of finding love, the singer feels they have found their 'destiny' effortlessly. The assurance that their love is unshakeable, 'stronger than what's seen,' speaks to an inner strength and conviction that their bond will endure any external challenges. The simplicity of the lyrics, paired with the repetition of 'you' and 'only you,' strips the song down to its emotional core, focusing on the purity and exclusivity of the love they have found.
