Feel that irresistible pull on the dance floor? Culpa Al Corazón is Prince Royce’s playful confession that sometimes love takes the wheel and our hearts drive us straight into trouble. Over smooth, hip-swaying bachata guitar, the Dominican-American star admits he can’t stop thinking about a woman whose sparkling eyes keep him up at night. Late-night calls, tipsy whispers to a couple glasses of rum, and endless daydreams all get pinned on one culprit – his rebellious heart.
In the chorus, Royce pleads with his crush: “No me culpes a mí… culpa al corazón.” He paints himself as a powerless “marioneta” and a mere “pasajero” on a journey toward happiness at her side. The message is clear and charming – when love hits this hard, logic steps aside and rhythm takes over. So, as you listen, let your own heart lead and sway along with every passionate beat.
