Alcohol (part. Anuel AA)

The song 'Alcohol' by Marshmello featuring Anuel AA delves into the themes of hedonism, passion, and the uninhibited nature of a night fueled by alcohol. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a night where the protagonists let go of their inhibitions and indulge in their desires. The recurring line, 'Luego nos perdimo' por culpa del alcohol,' which translates to 'Then we got lost because of the alcohol,' underscores the central role that alcohol plays in loosening their restraints and leading them into a night of wild escapades.

The song's narrative is rich with imagery and metaphors that highlight the physical and emotional intensity of the night. Phrases like 'Ella se puso más rica desde que es soltera' (She got hotter since she became single) and 'Mojaste to'a la cama cuando te venía' (You soaked the bed when you came) emphasize the raw, unfiltered passion between the characters. The lyrics also touch on themes of self-confidence and empowerment, particularly in the lines where the female protagonist is described as becoming more attractive and assertive after becoming single.

Culturally, the song taps into the Latin music scene's penchant for celebrating nightlife, sensuality, and the freedom that comes with letting go of societal norms. Anuel AA's contribution adds a layer of authenticity and grit, reflecting his signature style that often blends reggaeton with trap influences. Marshmello's production provides a catchy, danceable beat that complements the song's themes of indulgence and revelry. Together, they create a track that is both a celebration of the night and a cautionary tale of the consequences of losing oneself to alcohol and desire.
