“Atlantico” came to Tall Juan all at once. The waves were crashing up on the shores of Far Rockaway as he sat in the sand with his partner close by. All consumed by the love at his side and the romance of the ocean beyond, the title track to Tall Juan’s second album, Atlantico, was born.
Co-produced by Juan Wauters and mixed by Darrell Thorp, “Atlantico” feels like it can be in the opening credits to a movie about a couple falling in love in a coastal beach town. The first sound you hear are waves peacefully rolling ashore as a cheerful beat fades into the foreground.
“Te voy a pedir tan solo una vez, que me digas todo, todo lo que vos queres, mientras lo escribo mas sigo pensando vos,” croons Juan. Translation: I’m going to ask you just one time to tell me every, everything that you want while I write it down, I keep thinking of you.
Swoon much? This song makes me want to fall in love and frolic along the shore.
Listen to “Atlantico” now and prepare for the magic that is to come with the rest of the songs off of Atlantico on 5/11.
Tall Juan
Lyrics and Translation
ATLANTICO
Necesito verte porque te ves muy bien
Ya me has dicho anoche que vos bien me queres
El Atlantico muy romantico es el
Te voy a pedir tan solo una vez
Que me digas todo todo lo que vos queres
Mientras lo escribo mas sigo pensando en vos
Mientras te escribo mas sigo pensando en vos
Te escucho venir, esperandote
Las aves al oido me estan diciendo que
Que me entregue en el mar hay lugar para dos
Necesito verte porque te ves muy bien
Ya me has dicho anoche que vos bien me queres
El Atlantico muy romantico es el

ATLANTICO IN ENGLISH
I need to see you because you look so good
You’ve told me last night that you want me too
The Atlantic is so romantic it is
I’m gonna ask you just one time
To tell me every everything that you want
While I write it down I keep thinking of you
While I write to you I keep thinking of you
I hear you coming, waiting
The birds to my ear they are telling me
To surrender, in the sea there’s room for us two
I need to see you because you look so good
You’ve told me last night that you want me too
The Atlantic is so romantic it is
