Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro are going through one of their best musical and personal moments. Both artists released several weeks ago RR, an EP where they talk about their relationship going through the past, the present and the future.
They promised to release a videoclip for each RR song and so far, they are more than delivering: this Thursday Vampires was released, with both artists transformed into “bloodsuckers” as they stroll through the streets of Raval. In the video, the couple appears dressed in crucifixes and ostentatious coats as they wander around Barcelona. They then enter the mythical bar Marsella, a place frequented in the past by names such as Picasso.
The music video is directed by Stillz, a young man of Colombian and American origin who, despite his young age (23 years old), has already directed videos for artists as important as Bad Bunny (Yo perreo sola), Karol G or Miley Cyrus. On the other hand, in the production we find Canada, an old acquaintance of Rosalía’s filmography.
If you don’t want to miss anything of what Rauw and Rosalía sing in Vampiros, here are the complete lyrics:
My pistol
No safety catch, self-triggering
He is from Barcelona, but he is in Carola
She’s not a follower, she’s the wave My Gun
No safety catch, self-triggering
He is from Barcelona, but he is in Carola
She is not a follower, she is the wave.
We’ve got the street on fire
We leave at night, we arrive during the day.
My baby close to me, my baby close to me
It never really mattered what anyone said.
You know that tonight we went down the drain, eh?
You’re the one who gets it right
You know we’re going down the drain tonight, hey
You’re the one who gets in the most
Where is the night ‘tá pesá’?
Baby, follow me, let’s go over there.
Where is the night ‘tá pesá’?
My cat liked it and now she’s juiced.
Roll down the window to let the smoke out
Spirits scare them away
Every weekend the moon escorts me
Of darkness, of evil (Oh)
We’ve got the street on fire
We leave at night, we arrive during the day.
My baby close to me, my baby close to me
It never really mattered what anyone said.
The itchy, spicy, wasabi
I am natural, wabi-sabi
She’s like Don, I’m Daddy
This joint pays for all the Ferrari
There is no equal like you and me
Sharpened metal fangs
Vampires playing now forever, we are immortal
And you know that tonight we’re going down the drain
You’re the one who gets it right
You know that tonight we went down the drain (Ah!)
You’re the one who gets in the most
Where is the night ‘tá pesá’?
Hey, I’m going there with my cat (Hey)
Where the night ‘tá pesá’?
Guayado with my cat I’m already addicted
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
life returns us
It is said that you have to break
That time should not be wasted
Not just the first break
Whoever has the smoke, take a break
If you don’t use the ego
You’ll make God shine
Follow the scent of Judas
And it is that he scares you
The only thing left is Promesa: will there finally be a wedding?
While kiss served to show us Rosalía and Rauw during the early stages of their relationship, now in Vampiros we see how the couple is doing today. The union of these two Latin music heavyweights has made them an unstoppable force, as demonstrated by the success of Beso and the success that Vampiros is sure to reap.
Now, the only loose end left is Pledge. In this bolero they tell us their yearnings and desires for the future, as well as affirming that they still have a promise to keep. If we take into account the end of Beso, with Rosalía’s tears and the ring she shows on camera, the wedding is closer than ever.
