Bombón de Azúcar

Ricky Martin's song 'Bombom de Azúcar' is a vibrant and passionate ode to the intoxicating power of love. The lyrics paint a picture of a love so intense that it transforms the singer's entire world. From the very beginning, Martin's voice rises above the noise of the city, declaring the profound impact this love has had on him. The arrival of this person has replaced his anxiety with a sense of peace and love, highlighting the transformative power of a deep emotional connection.

The chorus emphasizes the addictive nature of this love, comparing it to a sweet treat that he cannot resist. The repeated phrase 'Shubi - ru - ru bombon de azucar' serves as a playful and catchy metaphor for the sweetness and allure of his lover. This love makes him laugh, cry, and even discriminate against others, showing the all-consuming nature of his feelings. The imagery of walking on a tightrope and being willing to kill for this love further underscores the intensity and precariousness of his emotions.

Throughout the song, Martin acknowledges that he can be difficult to understand, but his lover always comprehends him. This mutual understanding and the joy he feels in their presence make their absence even more poignant. The song captures the highs and lows of a passionate relationship, where the presence of the loved one brings immense joy, and their absence creates a noticeable void. 'Bombom de Azúcar' is a celebration of love's power to change us, make us feel alive, and sometimes, make us a little crazy.
