La Curiosidad Lyrics in English by Ivan Cornejo, Eslabon Armado
Antojar(se) is a reflexive verb used when a sudden craving or irresistible urge hits you.
In the line "Contigo, sí, se me antoja" Ivan Cornejo is saying that being with this person makes the moment “too tempting to resist.” It’s a colorful, very Spanish way to express spontaneous desire, making it both memorable and fun to learn.
Ivan Cornejo and Eslabon Armado lean straight into pure impulse with "La Curiosidad". The story kicks off in the middle of a loud, crowded party. The narrator grabs someone by the waist, dancing as if tomorrow does not exist, yet he admits he feels foolish for falling so fast: "Qué tonto por enamorarme si ni te conozco" [How foolish of me to fall in love when I don't even know you]. The club music is blasting so loud that they cannot hear each other talk, so they ditch the party. His philosophy is blunt and urgent: "Hay que hacer recuerdos porque la vida es muy corta" [We have to make memories because life is too short].
Things move quickly from the dance floor to the parking lot. The phrase "sacamos los botes" [we took out the cans / beers] points to cracking open some drinks while he sings his own real-world hit "Está Dañada" to impress her. They plan on going to a hotel, but they cannot wait, ending up in the backseat of the car instead ("El coche moviendo y nadie maneja / Los vidrios por todo se nublaban" [The car moving and nobody driving / The windows were completely fogged up]). He even drops a playful pop-culture shoutout with "Me sentía como tu Jhayco y tú eras Mia" [I felt like your Jhayco and you were Mia], nodding to the hit urban track Dákiti where Jhay Cortez sings about Mia Khalifa. It is an honest, late-night story driven entirely by curiosity and zero patience.
