Ángela Aguilar has just released a song that’s generating a lot of buzz: ‘El Equivocado’ (The Wrong One). She announced it on Instagram with a short teaser and a few telling emojis — a ring, a heart, and the ocean. But it’s the lyrics that really have fans talking.
‘El Equivocado’ is a heartfelt track about falling in love with someone others see as the “wrong” choice — but who feels completely right to her. Despite the warnings and outside judgment, the narrator defends her relationship, describing how safe, loved, and understood she feels. The song challenges the idea of being “wrong” in love, showing that sometimes the person everyone doubts turns out to be the perfect match.
The music video features Christian Nodal and Ángela themselves, together on a beach — likely the same one where they celebrated their honeymoon and nine-month anniversary. Given everything the couple has been through in the public eye, fans are convinced this isn’t just a song, but Ángela’s way of standing up for her relationship with Nodal.
‘El Equivocado’ English Lyrics
[Verse]
It’s okay
If they believe me — and if they don’t, that’s fine too
It’s my life, just like everyone else’s
Because I won’t hide this love
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all happened little by little
We fell in love — none of it was planned
They tell me all kinds of things, and to be careful
That I’ve fallen for the wrong person
[Chorus]
The wrong one shows up with flowers
And I have every reason to love him
In his arms, I feel safe
And all his craziness makes me fall harder
The wrong one is unlike anyone else
And he’s number one in my heart
Let the world spin — they don’t get us
Say what they want — he’s the right one
The wrong one turned out to be perfect for me
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all happened little by little
We fell in love — none of it was planned
They tell me all kinds of things, and to be careful
That I’ve fallen for the wrong person
[Chorus]
The wrong one shows up with flowers
And I have every reason to love him
In his arms, I feel safe
And all his craziness makes me fall harder
The wrong one is unlike anyone else
And he’s number one in my heart
Let the world spin — they don’t get us
Say what they want — he’s the right one
The wrong one turned out to be perfect for me
[Outro]
He turned out perfect for me
The wrong one
