Danna Paola Releases ‘AÚN TE QUIERO’ & Responds to Fan Criticisms: Lyrics in English

This heartfelt song marks the end of her latest album: Lyrics in English

Archivado en: Danna Paola  •  

Danna Paola released her latest song, «AÚN TE QUIERO,» almost 2 weeks ago. She shared the news on her social media with the message, “I can’t believe this moment has finally arrived; it’s incredibly intense.” During the Latin Grammys week in Seville, the Mexican star had mentioned that this song was her ‘most painful’ one, and her performance in the track truly reflects that sentiment. 

Danna, who continues to unveil songs as part of her latest musical phase, has chosen an emotional ballad to conclude her new album. In this song, she expresses a sentiment of preferring solitude over a harmful companionship, as she sings, “Your memory is not beautiful; it’s a lament. Because if I hate you, it’s because deep down, I love you.

Writing Process

However, writing this song wasn’t easy, as Danna explains. In fact, it took her two years to compose it. She shared, “Over the past two years, I’ve been emotionally processing this song; it entered my life at the perfect time, opening my eyes to a situation/relationship that was causing me great pain. Speaking my truth out of love became my path to liberation, and from day one until now, this song has been my sanctuary and salvation.”

Through this song, Danna aims to help her fans in healing and finding forgiveness, ultimately seeking to ‘remove toxic emotions from the wreckage of their hearts.’

Fan Criticism Sparks Danna Paola’s Response to Her Song

However, both the song itself and Danna, along with her team, have been receiving criticism from some of her supposed ‘fans’ regarding her choice of musical projects

The singer, for her part, has expressed her disappointment on her social media platforms concerning the reaction of a portion of her fans. They seem to be more focused on the song’s performance metrics and success rather than simply appreciating the music itself. Danna emphasized that her music isn’t about competition or winning any contests. 

     You all have contaminated yourselves with this toxicity on your own. We can’t have a peaceful release because now everyone thinks they are managers, producers, composers, PR agents, and even record labels. Being a ‘fan’ of an artist means connecting with the MUSIC they create, and if you don’t connect, I think it’s good to accept that this isn’t your place here, and that’s okay. Don’t poison others; I don’t want that here.”

«AÚN TE QUIERO (I Still Love You)» Lyrics Translation

[Verse 1]

The neighbor told me you asked about me
You left me flowers, I gave them to the dog
Do you think I care if you stopped following me?
I know you made an account, you’re dying to see me happy

[Chorus]

I’d rather be alone
Than be a slave to the lies you tell me
If I don’t believe in love, it’s not because I wanted to
I gave you everything, and you sold it for nothing
I’m better off alone
Although from time to time, I admit I think of you
I remember it’s not beautiful, it’s a lament
Because if I hate you, it’s because deep down I love you

[Verse 2]

You’re the rat, I’m Paquita
No amount of bleach can clean you
Even if you bathe in holy water
A woman with a motorcycle is what you need
I know you’re incurable, you’re worse than Covid
Worse than Covid
But I cried for you like they cried for Kobe

[Bridge]

I’ve deleted all the photos
Tequila healed me
I forget you with a ranchera song
And with two, I find someone better
Because this was the best thing, no
I wish you all the best
Don’t come asking for forgiveness
Let God forgive you

[Chorus]

I’d rather be alone
Than be a slave to the lies you tell me
If I don’t believe in love, it’s not because I wanted to
I gave you everything, and you sold it for nothing
I’m better off alone
Although from time to time, I admit I think of you
I remember it’s not beautiful, it’s a lament
Because if I hate you, it’s because deep down I love you

[Outro]

Tell me why you’re like this
What more do you want from me?
Don’t torture the wound that you know bleeds for you
And go, go
Go, I don’t want to make a mistake
Not twice
