Algo Contigo

Vicentico, the Argentine singer known for his deep, soulful voice and his work with the band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, explores the depths of unrequited love in his song 'Algo Contigo' (Something With You). The lyrics of the song convey a sense of longing and desperation that is often associated with love that is not reciprocated. The protagonist is tortured by his feelings, which are so intense that they border on obsession. He expresses a profound desire to have 'something' with the object of his affection, even though he is aware of the difficulties that lie in admitting such feelings.

The song's lyrics reveal the inner conflict of someone who is struggling with the boundaries between friendship and romantic desire. The line 'Es que no te has dado cuenta de lo mucho que me cuesta ser tu amigo' (You haven't realized how much it costs me to be your friend) highlights the pain of being close to someone, yet not close enough to fulfill his romantic yearnings. The protagonist's desire to 'controlar tu vida' (control your life) and know who kisses and comforts her speaks to a possessive and almost voyeuristic aspect of his love, which he recognizes but seems unable to restrain.

The repeated refrain 'Algo contigo' emphasizes the protagonist's singular focus on achieving some form of relationship with this person, even if it means being eternally enslaved by his feelings. The song's melancholic melody complements the lyrics, creating a mood that resonates with anyone who has experienced the bittersweet pangs of loving someone from afar. Vicentico's emotive delivery of the song makes 'Algo Contigo' a poignant anthem for those caught in the throes of one-sided love.
