Shakira te felicito lyrics meaning

Te felicito is a song by the Colombian singer Shakira and the Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro. The song was released on April 21, 2022, and “Te felicito” can be translated as “I congratulate you” or “Congratulations”. The rumor that Shakira was working on a new song started on Twitter when she posted a twit saying she was collaborating with a Puerto Rican singer, however she deleted the twit a couple of minutes after.

Te felicito had an excellent commercial reception, in the USA reaching the position number 10 in the Hot Latin Songs and the number 1 on the female artist list. Curiously the song reached position number 9 in Russia where the song was very well received by the listeners.

The video clip has a futurist style, showing both Shakira and Rauw Alejandro as Robots in an advanced world. Te felicito lyrics meaning are about Shakira fixing an android version of Rauw Alejandro as saying that by trying to complete him she broke herself into pieces, is necessary to state that the video clip is set in a futurist world so some sentences may relate to that. Shakira was warned that he was bad for her but she didn’t listen, now she knows who he is and regrets it.

After she left him Rauw Alejandro came to her asking for forgiveness but she knew that he was lying trying to convince her, he treated her like any other of the girls he dated. After he realizes that she won’t come back with him he says to her that he doesn’t need her and that she lost someone authentic, he will not block her on social media so she can see how he and the next girl having fun.

The most popular fragment in the song is when they sing “Te felicito, qué bien actúas” which became a popular fragment in TikTok videos, the sentence can be translated as “Congratulation, you act so well”. Te felicito is an excellent and popular song to practice your Spanish right now, it is easy to listen and the lyrics aren’t complicated, so go on and listen to this wonderful track.
