Review

Manuel Turizo La Bachata meaning and English lyrics explained

La Bachata translated as “The Bachata” or simply as “La Bachata” is a song by the Colombian singer Manuel Turizo. La Bachata refers to the Colombian musical genre bachata which is a musical style very calm using instruments like bongos, maracas, and guiro, bachata genre lyrics tend to be about love and lovesickness. 

La Bachata by Manuel Turizo was released in May 2022 and it was the song that made him famous as the song was number one in all tops in Argentina, Mexico, and Colombia

La Bachata is a song about a man who broke up with his girlfriend recently and tells us his story and feelings. The man sings that after breaking up with his girlfriend he blocked her from Instagram, but he has another account where he watches her stories; he deleted her phone number but it doesn’t matter because he has it recorded in his brain. However, the man knows that the best thing is to continue without her because she hurt him a lot. He drives through the same streets he walked with her remembering all their kisses, he would like to ask her to come back but he thinks that he better ask God for protection. 

The meaning of La Bachata is to endure our pain after a relationship ended because if everything ended in a bad mood, the best thing is to just wait for the pain to disappear. Sometimes we may have the urge to see that person and maybe return together in most cases that will be a mistake.

Manuel Turizo did a good job with the song, which in terms of learning is awesome as it’s simple, the lyrics are easy to understand and translate, and with basic Spanish knowledge, you shouldn’t have problems trying to figure out what it says. The singing is also very friendly because Manuel Turizo sings slow-paced which is very normal in Bachata songs. Excellent song for those learning Spanish who are still struggling with certain simple words and verbs.

La Bachata by Manuel Turizo is a catchy song that I recommend you to give it listen to, I know you will love it.
