Second single from Acid Coco is a tragicomic champeta that captures emotionsand energies of a night out on Colombia’s Caribbean coast

Following on from the female-empowering cumbia of “Yo Bailo Sola”, the second single from Colombian duo Acid Cocosees them retain the Caribbean swagger but the rhythm and emotions have changed.

With a flow, that’s is almost like a tongue twister, “El Amor de Mis Amores” (The Love of Our Loves) talks about that special and intoxicating love that we all experience at some point, that feels so deep when it’s happening, but then once it’s gone, it’s gone. “It’s about fleeting, intoxicating love,” says Andrea. “They were the love of our loves, but then they left and we got on with our lives”. Paulo adding: “It’s our way of talking about the tragi-comedy that we live every day of our lives. We’re used to making fun of everything.”
Sometimes it’s necessary to get nostalgic, to hark back to carefree days, especially when your current life is a roller-coaster, and Colombian politics and global lockdown, offer no respite. That’s what Acid Coco do here, with a rhythm influenced by champeta but that starts with charged punk guitar, adds shimmering synth blasts to pounding bass, and cracks like a reggaeton floor-filler. It’s like going to a rock gig, then off to a picó sound system block party before finishing the night dancing at the discoteca; Colombian youth trapped in a bottle.“
El Amor de Mis Amores” is the second single taken from the group’s debut album Mucho Gusto, an album full of Colombian rhythms and emotions, with each song a vignette of life, memories pulled from the past and shaped by the present.“

El Amor de Mis Amores” will be released on 7 August by El Palmas Music.

lyrics

Perdí la forma romántica de ver la vida

Mi corazón cada vez más parecido a una piedra que a una esponja

Muerta en vida me siento

Felices somos desde adentro eso lo sé
pero como hacer si en el fondo al que quiero es a usted

Y no lo puedo tener

Creo que voy a enloquecer
El amor de mis amores eres tú

Ya no te quiero tener

Y no te puedo querer

El amor de mis amores eres tú 

Pero pa' mi ya da igual

Yo no te quise esperar
To'a las tardes te espero parada en la esquina

Te veo pasar con tu mochila

Con tú olor de ayer 

Y la carita de yo no fuí

Siempre se te olvida que yo existo 

Ahora te dejo en visto

Ni una vuelta más a tu lado yo daré ni un intento más esto se va a merecer
El amor de mis amores eres tú

Ya no te puedo querer

Y no te quiero tener

El amor de mis amores eres tú

Y cuando pienso en tu amor 
Ya no me queda más na'
