Sergio Dalma started his career singing in bands and doing chorus, until he won the TV program "Gent d'aqui", in the Catalan station of TVE, which won him a regular contract to sing in the Shadows night-club in Barcelona. Sergio signed up with the record company Horus, and edited his first album, "Esa chica es mia", in 1989. Though it wasn't very successful, the company gave him another chance with "Sintiéndonos la piel", in 1991. That same year, Sergio Dalma was chosen to represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Bailar Pegados", where he finished in the 4th position. This was his call to fame.
One year later, he published "Adivina", which arrived to number one in charts thanks to the song "Ave Lucía". Afterwards, he signed with Polygram, with whom he edited four albums, and later with his current record company, Universal, with whom he has published another four.
Sergio Dalma has sung in Spanish for most of his career, but being born in Catalonia he speaks Catalan. His last two albums, "Lo Mejor de Sergio Dalma" and "Todo Lo Que Quieres", contain songs in Catalan.

Sergio Dalma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lo cierto es que estoy perdido muy lejos de mi ciudad.
Y siento que la noche se me va en la carretera,
Y plena curva me da por pensar:
Las vueltas que da la vidad, rueda, rueda y rodara.
Mi mente que se complica, empiezo a desesperar.
Y dame un pedazito de tu amor tan solo esta noche,
Un beso largo con mucho sabor.
Dos, tan solo tu y yo, unidos los dos,
Tu piel en mi piel, solo una boca.
Dos, tan solo tu y yo, no digas que no,
No quiero que bailes sola.
Baila, baila, baila....
Baila, baila, baila....(bis)
Quiero desnudar tu cuerpo, nadar en tu imaginacion,
Soy un animal en celo en busca de tu corazon.
Y dame un pedacito de tu amor tan solo esta noche,
Un beso largo con mucho sabor.
(estribillo)
The lyrics of "Baila baila" by Sergio Dalma are about taking chances and living life to the fullest, even if things don't always go as planned. The first lines describe how everything is a matter of luck, and sometimes we can find ourselves lost far away from home. The singer is on the road, and he feels like the night is slipping away. He starts to worry and overthink things, realizing how complicated life can be. However, he has someone in mind, and he expresses his desire to be with that person, even if it's just for one night.
The chorus emphasizes the connection between two people, and how it feels like they are the only ones in the world, united in a dance. The singer wants to be close to this person, feeling their skin against his and sharing a kiss full of passion. He repeats the words "Baila, baila, baila" as an invitation to dance, to forget about everything else and live in the moment. He ends the song with the same lines as the beginning, acknowledging that life can be unpredictable, but it's worth taking a chance.
Overall, "Baila baila" is a romantic song that celebrates the power of music and dance to bring people together, even if only for a little while. It's a reminder to enjoy life and not be afraid of taking risks, especially if it involves being with someone you care about.
