Yonaguni

Song by Bad Bunny
Produced by Tainy, FinesseGTB & Smash David
Released: 4 June 2021

“Yonaguni” is the second single that Bad Bunny releases during the year 2021. The title of the song refers to the Japanese island Yonaguni . On this island are the Yonaguni Structures, which – it is speculated – are vestiges of an ancient city that ended up being submerged under the ocean.

In the lyrics, Benito is sincere about the romantic feelings he has for a woman he is apparently in love with, mentioning that he cannot get her out of his mind and it is inevitable to remember her when drinking alcohol. Despite these feelings, according to Bad Bunny this relationship is prohibited because the woman already has a partner, but her desire for her is stronger and the song ends up being an invitation to the woman to leave her partner and run away with him, using to the island of Yonaguni as a metaphor to explain how far he would go for it.

Its existence was made known on May 28, 2021, when it was mentioned in an article in Pitchfork magazine regarding the release of “100 MILLONES” , Benito’s previous single. In this article, it is mentioned that in an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Bad Bunny mentioned “Yonaguni” as his next single.

As he mentioned in the interview with Zane Lowe, this song comes from and was composed from his most recent feelings – being written only three weeks ago – and it is melodious, smooth and danceable, oriented to enjoy the summer.

Bad Bunny – Yonaguni Lyrics:

[Letra de “Yonaguni”]

[Intro]
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-eh, yeah

[Pre-Coro]
Una noche más y copas de más
Tú no me dejas en paz, de mi mente no te vas

[Coro]
Aunque sé que no debo, ey
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara, tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está’, que yo por ti cojo un vuelo
Y a Yonaguni le llego, oh
Aunque sé que no debo, ey
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara, tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está’, que yo por ti cojo un vuelo
Y a Yonaguni le llego, ey

[Verso 1]
No me busque’ en Instagram, mami, búscame en casa
Pa’ que vea’ lo que pasa, ey
Si tú me prueba’, te casa’, ey
Ese cabrón ni te abraza
Y yo loco por tocarte
Pero ni me atrevo a textearte
Tú con cualquier outfit la parte’
Mami, tú ere’ aparte
Shorty, tiene’ un culo bien grande, eh
De-Demasia’o grande
Y yo lo tengo estudia’o, ya mismo me gradúo
Y en la cara me lo tatúo
Vi que viste mi story y subiste una pa’ mí
Yo que me iba a dormir, ey
En la disco habían mil
Y yo bailando contigo en mi mente

[Coro]
Aunque sé que no debo
Pensar en ti, bebé, pero cuando bebo
Me viene tu nombre, tu cara, tu risa y tu pelo, ey
Dime dónde tú está’, que yo por ti cojo un vuelo
Y a Yonaguni le llego

[Verso 2]
Si me da’ tu dirección, yo te mando mil carta’
Si me da’ tu cuenta de banco, un millón de peso’
To’a la noche arrodillado a Dio’ le rezo
Pa’ que ante’ que se acabe el año tú me de’ un beso
Y empezar el 2023 bien cabrón
Contigo y un blunt
Tú te ve’ asesina con ese mahón (¡Wuh!)
Me matas sin un pistolón
Y yo te compro un Banshee
Gucci, Givenchy
Un poodle, un frenchie
El pasto, lo’ munchie’
Te canto un mariachi
Me convierto en Itachi, eh
