Get ready to celebrate what makes you you!
In “Diferente,” Venezuelan singer-songwriter Lasso turns a simple love song into a vibrant anthem for anyone who has ever felt out of step with the crowd. From the very first lines, he’s mesmerized by someone who quotes unpronounceable philosophers, wields a razor-sharp sense of irony, and refuses to laugh at jokes made at their expense. Instead of urging this person to fit in, Lasso shouts his admiration: “Eres tan especial… eres diferente.” The message is clear – your quirks are your superpower.
As the chorus soars, Lasso also warns that standing out comes with a price. Critics will talk, and the temptation to blend in will creep up, but the song insists: “Sigue así” – keep going just as you are. Packed with catchy melodies and uplifting lyrics, “Diferente” reminds listeners that authenticity impresses far more than conformity ever could. It’s a fun, feel-good invitation to wear your uniqueness proudly and never, ever change.
