Review

- The song "Celia" by Camila Cabello is a Latin pop song that tells the story of a Cuban girl who falls in love with a boy who wants to move to Miami and drink tequila with her father. She teaches him Spanish and salsa dancing, and he becomes fascinated by her culture and personality. She calls herself Celia, after the famous Cuban singer Celia Cruz, who is known for her songs about sugar and Cuba. The song is a tribute to Camila's own Cuban heritage and family.

- The song makes me feel happy and energetic. It has a catchy melody and a lively rhythm that makes me want to dance. The lyrics are playful and flirty, and they show how the girl is confident and proud of her identity. The artist weaves the story by using Spanish words and phrases, such as "tequila con papi", "cositas que nunca le han dicho", and "conoció a Celia sin ir pa' Cuba". She also uses la-la-la sounds to imitate Celia Cruz's signature style. She creates a contrast between the boy's life without sugar and the girl's life full of sweetness and flavor.

- The song does not include explicit themes, but it does imply some sexual innuendo, such as "yo le puedo dar clases privadas" (I can give him private lessons) and "que yo le hable en el oído" (that I whisper in his ear). It is a fun song that celebrates love, culture, and music.

- The song doesn't have an official video, but it does have an official lyric video which features Camila in a bathtub.
