Estoy Enamorado

Carin Leon's song 'Estoy Enamorado' is a heartfelt declaration of love, filled with raw emotion and a touch of humor. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man deeply in love, yet struggling to win the affection of the woman he desires. He admits to being stubborn, a trait that stems from his long-standing feelings for her. Despite his efforts, she remains resistant, causing him frustration and heartache. This dynamic is captured in the playful yet poignant lines where he describes her as 'testaruda' (stubborn) and himself as 'esperanzado' (hopeful) in making her happy.

The song's chorus is a powerful expression of his infatuation. He confesses that she occupies his thoughts and heart all day, and that she provokes a myriad of emotions within him, which he believes to be love. This repetition of 'Estoy enamorado' (I am in love) underscores the depth of his feelings and his unwavering determination. The playful threat that she will eventually feel the same way, 'igual o peor que yo' (the same or worse than me), adds a light-hearted twist to the otherwise earnest declaration.

Carin Leon's musical style, which blends traditional Mexican sounds with contemporary influences, enhances the emotional impact of the song. The use of regional instruments and his distinctive vocal delivery create a sense of authenticity and intimacy. 'Estoy Enamorado' resonates with anyone who has experienced the highs and lows of unrequited love, capturing the universal longing for reciprocation and the hope that love will eventually prevail.
