Andromeda
Mexicanto Lyrics

The song "Andromeda" by Mexicanto is a romantic and poetic description of the power and beauty of the Andromeda galaxy. The lyrics describe the singer's awe and fascination with the distant galaxy, which they see as mysterious and alluring. The opening lines, "Te vistes de negro distante galaxia / Me envuelves de pronto profunda y extraña" (You dress in black, distant galaxy / You envelop me suddenly, deep and strange), set the tone for the rest of the song, which is a mix of wonder and longing.

The song continues with descriptions of the singer's emotional and physical reactions to the galaxy, such as "Me dejas reflejos que expresan mi suerte" (You leave reflections that express my luck) and "Te llevó en la piel me has cubierto de estrellas" (I carry you on my skin, you have covered me with stars). The repetition of the lines "Quien te descubrió no supo ni la mitad / De la esencia que te hace particular / Tan especial, original" (Whoever discovered you didn't know even half / Of the essence that makes you unique / So special, original) underscores the singer's belief that the Andromeda galaxy is truly exceptional.

The song's last lines, "Fue un chispazo, fue un error / No preguntes qué sé yo / Que al ponerte nombre ANDRÓMEDA te dio / Te puso ANDRÓMEDA, te puso ANDRÓMEDA" (It was a spark, it was a mistake / Don't ask me what I know / That by naming you ANDROMEDA, it gave you / It named you ANDROMEDA, it named you ANDROMEDA), suggest that the singer may have given the name "Andromeda" to a person or object that reminded them of the galaxy. This echoes the theme of the song as a whole: that the beauty and power of the Andromeda galaxy have a kind of gravitational pull on us, inspiring awe, fascination, and creative expression.
