Déjate Llevar feels like a gentle invitation whispered over a dreamy groove. Maria, the Puerto Rican voice behind The Marías, tells a wavering lover that it is safe to drop every doubt, close their eyes, and simply float on the current of emotion. Even if the other person insists they want out, she senses an undeniable spark they “can’t destroy,” and she offers warmth, patience, and easy-going passion in return.
Throughout the song the phrase “Déjate llevar” (let yourself go) repeats like a calming mantra. It promises unconditional affection: whether you stay, get lost in your own thoughts, or even leave, the singer’s love remains. The overall message is clear and comforting—stop overthinking, trust the moment, and allow love’s tide to carry you someplace beautiful.
The Marías are a Los Angeles indie pop group led by vocalist María Zardoya and drummer-producer Josh Conway, known for sleek, dreamy songs that blend English and Spanish. Their sound moves through dream pop, psychedelic soul, and subtle jazz touches, creating intimate, cinematic moods.
They broke out with their debut album Cinema in 2021 and returned with the acclaimed Submarine in 2024, highlighting bilingual lyrics and lush production. The band has earned GRAMMY recognition, with multiple nominations that mark their rise from cult favorites to wider acclaim. If you like stylish vocals, hypnotic grooves, and songs that slip between languages, The Marías are a perfect fit for learning Spanish through music.
