Acércate

Octavia's song 'Acércate' is a poetic and sensual exploration of intimacy and connection. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two lovers coming together, both physically and emotionally. The opening lines, 'Los sonidos se dispersan / Y sentirlos me hace bien,' set the tone for a sensory experience where sounds and touches blend to create a deeply personal and intimate atmosphere. The repetition of 'Acércate mi amor' throughout the song emphasizes the longing and desire for closeness, urging the lover to come nearer and merge into one.

The song uses rich metaphors to convey the depth of this connection. Phrases like 'En el aire flota una sustancia sensual, ¿la ves?' and 'Lo que nos cubre pronto desaparecerá, ¿lo sé?' suggest a mystical and almost ethereal quality to their union. The 'sustancia sensual' floating in the air symbolizes the palpable tension and attraction between the lovers, while the idea of what covers them disappearing hints at the shedding of barriers and the ultimate vulnerability they share.

Octavia's musical style, often characterized by its blend of rock and traditional Andean influences, adds another layer of depth to 'Acércate.' The harmonizing whispers and accelerating caresses mentioned in the lyrics are mirrored in the song's arrangement, creating a harmonious and immersive experience. The imagery of mirrors and the convergence of space and time ('Aquí tú y yo, espejos alrededor / Paisaje de placer / Espacio y tiempo han coincidido hoy / Entre los dos') further enhances the theme of unity and timelessness, making 'Acércate' a captivating ode to love and intimacy.
