SONG MEANING

“Dímelo (I Need To Know)” is Marc Anthony’s fiery plea for clarity in love. The New York–born, Puerto Rican singer hears whispers that the woman he adores secretly feels the same, but he cannot stand living on rumors alone. Over pulsating salsa-pop rhythms, he begs her: “If you want me, tell me!” His heart is “enloquecido” – completely crazy – with passion, and every second of silence feels like he is “muriendo” – dying – for her affection.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of sleepless nights and restless desire. Marc longs to touch her skin, explore her world, and lift her “hasta el cielo” – up to the sky. Yet nothing can begin until she confirms her feelings. This tension between hope and uncertainty drives the song’s urgent chorus, making “Dímelo” both a dancefloor anthem and a relatable snapshot of anyone who has ever needed that one crucial answer in love.
