Who would have thought that a song mixing three different languages could turn out to be so successful and catchy? That’s exactly what happened with the release by Tiago PZK, Emilia, and Anitta. From the moment the collaboration was announced, everyone expected an explosive mix, with funk as the main genre—and who better than Anitta to lead the way?
This hit could easily become one of the standout performances by Latin stars at the 2024 MTV VMAs, where both Anitta and Tiago are set to take the stage. ‘Alegría’ is a song that gets you in the mood to dance, and it’s no surprise that it’s paired with the ‘quadradinho’ trend.
‘Alegría’ is the latest track Tiago has released as part of his GOTTI A era. After dropping his studio album just over a month ago, he had this track ready to surprise his fans. In just under 3 minutes, it seamlessly blends Spanish, English, and Portuguese. While the combination might have seemed unusual at first, any doubts quickly disappeared once people heard the full song.
‘Alegría’ English Lyrics
[Tiago PZK]
Copacabana, drinks, weed, hookah, and I invited her
She was like a painting, placed against the wall
I approached and whispered in her ear in Portuguese:
‘My heart is full of joy’
My heart is, is full of joy
Funky dance for all these girls
Drunk until the sunrise
My heart is, is full of joy
Funky dance for all these girls
Drunk until the sunrise, baby
[Emilia]
Drinking a caipirinha, dancing carioca style all the way down again, eh
All the girls smoking weed, hidden behind the smoke, can’t see a thing, hey
We’re at the party to spend all our cash
The lights go out, let’s head to the bathroom, everything’s fair game
I go back to the favela (Hey), we light a candle (Ah)
How he tempts me (Ah), I don’t know what it is (Ah), his bronzed cinnamon skin
The guy asked me to do the quadradinho for him
At the dance, the girls are looking for a cute guy
Copacabana, drinks, weed, hookah, and I invited him
He was holding a drink, leaning against the wall
I approached and whispered in his ear in Portuguese:
«My heart is full of joy»
[Tiago PZK & Emilia, Anitta]
My heart is, is full of joy
Funky dance for all these girls
Drunk until the sunrise, baby
[Anitta]
If the cops stop me, stop me
In Rio, it’s a crime not to dance all the way down, ay, ay, go down, go, go
You’re hot, you’re mine, come here, I’ll make you sweat
Get ready, get nasty, take it, take it, tra-tra
They’re all crazy staring at my— (What you thought? Get the sauce)
I slam my butt on the floor, without mercy, let’s see if you can handle it
We started at nine with a three-course dinner
I’ll do it for you in English, and switch it up in Portuguese
PZK, my heart is full of joy
[Tiago PZK & Anitta]
My heart is, is full of joy
Funky dance for all these girls
Drunk until the sunrise, baby
[Tiago PZK]
I’ve got that girl going crazy
Smoking my weed
I’m losing my clothes, oh-oh-oh-oh
