“LLYLM” (Lie Like You Love Me) is ROSALÍA’s glitter-soaked invitation to a bilingual carnival of feelings. Over a beat that jumps between flamenco flair and pop sparkle, the Spanish artist paints the scene: she’s dressed in coconut and cinnamon perfume, riding a motorbike, ready to swap reality for fantasy just for the night. The lyrics flip between Spanish and English to mirror her split desire—part of her knows the love is unrequited, but the other part wants to believe the masquerade.
Rather than demanding truth, ROSALÍA asks for a beautiful lie: “cover me in a dream” so the illusion can feel real enough to heal a bruised heart. A simple flower bracelet becomes her secret totem, proof that the carnival magic actually happened. In the end, “LLYLM” is about reclaiming power in vulnerability—choosing a playful escape, letting temporary affection light up the night, and deciding that even if love is pretend, the emotions it sparks can still be genuinely unforgettable.
