Vaso Lleno

Benjamin Amadeo's song 'Vaso Lleno' is a heartfelt ode to optimism and the transformative power of love. The lyrics revolve around the idea of seeing the glass half full, a metaphor for maintaining a positive outlook despite life's challenges. The recurring line, 'Haces que crea, haces que vea el vaso medio lleno,' translates to 'You make me believe, you make me see the glass half full,' highlighting the significant impact the loved one has on the narrator's perspective.

The song begins by acknowledging the existence of problems but quickly shifts to a more hopeful tone, emphasizing that these issues are becoming fewer. This shift is attributed to the presence of the loved one, who brings clarity and positivity into the narrator's life. The lyrics, 'Todo está tan claro lo que quiero, todo pasaría por vos primero,' meaning 'Everything I want is so clear, everything would go through you first,' further underscore the centrality of this relationship in the narrator's life.

Amadeo uses vivid imagery to convey the emotional highs and lows experienced in the presence of a loved one. Lines like 'Me siento energizado como un río peligroso' ('I feel energized like a dangerous river') and 'Me siento en la cima aunque esté en el piso del pozo tirado' ('I feel on top even when I'm lying at the bottom of the pit') illustrate the intense emotions and resilience that love can inspire. The song ultimately celebrates the idea that love can make the world feel smaller and more manageable, as expressed in the line, 'Que pequeño se hace el mundo cuando estás conmigo' ('How small the world becomes when you're with me').

'Vaso Lleno' is a beautiful reminder that love and companionship can help us navigate life's difficulties with a more optimistic and hopeful outlook. The song's uplifting message and catchy melody make it a resonant anthem for anyone who believes in the power of love to transform our perspective on life.
