Mi Cuerpo

The song 'Mi Cuerpo' by Dan Den is a passionate expression of desire and vulnerability. The lyrics convey a deep yearning for a love that seems to be just out of reach. The singer speaks of dreaming about their love interest and feeling a strong need for them, indicating a deep emotional connection. The repeated encounters on the street and the provocative glances exchanged suggest an ongoing flirtation that has yet to culminate in a relationship.

The chorus of the song emphasizes the singer's human vulnerability with the refrain 'Mi cuerpo no esta hecho de metal... ni de cera,' which translates to 'My body is not made of metal... nor of wax.' This metaphor highlights the singer's susceptibility to emotional pain and the impact of the love interest's actions. The singer is not invulnerable like metal, nor is he without feeling like a wax figure. Instead, he is flesh and blood, with feelings that can be hurt by the object of his affection's seeming indifference or teasing.

Despite the pain, the singer remains hopeful and determined, planning to eventually win over the love interest and become their 'habitual lover.' The song ends on a note of romantic fantasy, imagining a world of illusions where the singer's dreams come true. The use of 'salsa... con amor' adds a cultural layer to the song, as salsa music often deals with themes of love, passion, and heartache, and is known for its emotional intensity and danceable rhythms.
