I bet most of you have heard about Medellín because of Pablo Escobar or some Narcos series... Today I bring you a song with which I intend to show you a little more about our culture. Our idiosyncrasy is joy, and therefore life... despite the fact that we went through dark moments as a society, we have known how to get up and get ahead… No more stigmas ¡LET'S IMPACT CULTURE WITH COLLECTABLE MUSIC!
Christmas in Medellin and Colombia hits different, there are many traditions around this time of the year, and here, December lasts from November to January. There are parties everywhere and the atmosphere is pure euphoria. Christmas is lived as a big party.
This song tells what it's like to live a Christmas in Medellin, although to really get closer to what it is to live this experience, you have to come to Colombia and live it firsthand.
Here you can see what each part of the lyrics means, culturally... with videos and real images! you will feel like in Medellín:

Lyrics
Block party,
rodolfo sounds on the radio
here the thirst is cured with Guaro,
There are many,
who don´t pay and drink,
up, down, if it drips it's double
lemon with rum,
they played reggaeton...
the bad is forgotten,
There is a party in the city.
We got plans in the neighborhood,
forgetting the pain is the intention,
loudspeakers in each corner,
and the neighbor who is the sensation.
a Vallenato,
closely
the gang is up,
street custard,
blow hard,
the fire went out.
this perreo got very hot
everything is lit,
the mountains made mangers,
every day is friday
coffee with aguardiente,
sancocho the next day,
let december feel…
And this reggaeton lights up the street for you to see
from the country with the most holidays on planet earth
crowned, we give it to the floor,
And if you are by Sabaneta I'll get to you on horseback.
Chorus
tell me how is the situation
Where do I get you?
that I already have the estren.
I already cleaned everything with incense,
and next year
I'm going to stop drinking.
watch as you light the candles,
and there is nothing virgin about you.
yeah,
on the 31st the vacilón got started
everybody put away your guns
there's a celebration...
Sweet bath, for good energy.
yellow panties, grandmother's omens.
this perreo got very hot
everything is lit,
the mountains made mangers,
every day is friday
coffee with aguardiente,
sancocho the next day,
let december feel…
And this reggaeton lights up the street for you to see
from the country with the most holidays on planet earth
crowned, we give it to the floor,
And if you are by Sabaneta I'll get to you on horseback.
Chorus
