Pasional (feat. Oscar Larroca)

Alfredo de Angelis' song 'Pasional,' featuring Oscar Larroca, is a poignant exploration of the intense and often painful nature of passionate love. The lyrics delve deep into the emotional turmoil that comes with loving someone so deeply that it borders on obsession. The song's protagonist expresses a sense of dying 'mil veces de ansiedad' (a thousand times from anxiety), highlighting the overwhelming and consuming nature of his feelings. This is not a simple, serene love; it is a love that drives one to the brink of madness, as indicated by the line 'lo que es amar y enloquecer' (what it is to love and go mad).

The imagery in the song is vivid and evocative, with references to burning lips and intoxicating kisses that 'torturan mi razón' (torture my reason). This suggests a love that is both pleasurable and painful, a duality that is central to the song's theme. The protagonist is caught in a cycle of desire and torment, unable to escape the 'sed que me hace arder' (thirst that makes me burn) and the 'duda brutal' (brutal doubt) that plagues him. This duality is further emphasized by the contrast between the joy of being with the beloved and the agony of their absence.

The song also touches on the fear of loss, a common theme in passionate love. The protagonist is terrified of losing his beloved, as seen in the lines 'Tengo miedo de perderte' (I am afraid of losing you) and 'de pensar que no he de verte' (to think that I will not see you). This fear adds another layer of intensity to his emotions, making his love even more desperate and fervent. The metaphor of the beloved being 'clavada en mi' (nailed into me) like a dagger in the flesh underscores the inescapable and painful nature of his love. Ultimately, the protagonist's desire to 'morir en tus brazos' (die in your arms) encapsulates the all-consuming and tragic nature of his passion.
