Reggaetón Lento (Bailemos)

## Single by CNCO

"**Reggaetón Lento (Bailemos)**" is a song by Latin American boy band CNCO. It was released by Sony Music Latin on October 7, 2016, as the third single from their debut studio album, *Primera Cita* (2016). The band released a remix version in collaboration with British girl group Little Mix on August 18, 2017; it reached number five in the United Kingdom and remained in the Top 10 charts for eleven consecutive weeks. They performed the song live together in the UK for *The X Factor* finals that same year.

Zabdiel de Jesús told iHeartRadio that it was considered to be their first "hit," allowing them to tour the world globally.

## Background

Perrie Edwards explained how the remix came about, "Our Latin label came to us with an idea: 'How do you feel about collaborating with CNCO?' We heard the song and we had to make the song our own as well. It was just so much fun singing in Spanish. We love learning other languages."

Joel Pimentel stated to *Official Charts*, "For me, personally, I've known about them for four years. I saw them on *X Factor* but not from the beginning. I love their music, so when we were told we would be working with them, it was like a dream. I never thought we'd be collaborating with someone from the UK. It's such a great opportunity and this single with them has opened so many doors for us, it's great."

[Verse 1: Erick Brian Colón, Christopher Vélez]

Qué bien se ve

Me trae loco su figura

Ese trajecito corto le queda bien

Combinado con su lipstick color café

Qué bien se ve

Me hipnotiza su cintura

Cuando baila hasta los dioses la quieren ver

Ya no perderé más tiempo, me acercaré

[Chorus: All]

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

[Verse 2: Erick Brian Colón, *Zabdiel de Jesús*]

Permíteme bailar contigo esta pieza

Entre todas las mujeres se resalta tu belleza

Me encanta tu firmeza, te mueves con destreza

Muévete, muévete, muévete

*Muy rica, latina, estás llena de vida*

Sube las dos manos, dale pa´ arriba

¿Dónde están las solteras y las que no, también?

*Sin miedo muévete, muévete, muévete*

[Chorus: All]

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

[Post-Chorus: All]

Baila conmigo

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

[Puente: Richard Camacho]

I know you like it when I take you to the floor

I know you like this reggaetón lento

This ain't stopping baby till I say so

Come get - come get some more

[Verse 3: Zabdiel de Jesús, *Joel Pimentel*]

Es imposible atrasar las horas

Cada minuto contigo es un sueño

Quisiera ser su confidente

*¿Por qué no te atreves si lo hacemos ahora?*

No te pongas tímida

*Estamos tú y yo a solas*

[Chorus: All]

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

[Chorus: All]

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

Yo sólo la miré y me gustó

Me pegué y la invité: “Bailemos, eh?”

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

[Post-Chorus: All]

Muévete, muévete

Báilalo, báilalo

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

Muévete, muévete

Báilalo, báilalo

La noche está para un reggaetón lento

De esos que no se bailan hace tiempo

¿Que quiénes somos?

¡CNCO!

[Outro: Erick Brian Colón]

Qué bien se ve

Me trae loco su figura

Ese trajecito corto le queda bien

Combinado con su lipstick color café

Qué bien se ve

**Lyrics**
[Verse 1: Erick Brian Colón, *Christopher Vélez*]

How good she looks

Her figure drives me crazy (*Figure!*)

That short outfit looks good on her

Combined with her brown lipstick

How good she looks

*Her waist hypnotizes me (-aist)*

*When she dances even the gods want to see her*

*I won't waste any more time, I'll get closer*

[Chorus: All]

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

[Verse 2: Erick Brian Colón, *Zadbiel de Jesús*, **Richard Camacho**, ***All***]

Allow me to dance this piece with you (**Oh-oh, oh-oh**)

Among all the women your beauty stands out (**Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh**)

I love your firmness, you move with skill

And **move, move, move**

*Very hot, Latina, you are full of life*

*Raise both hands, throw them up* (**¡Eh!**)

*Where are the single ladies and non singles, too?*

*Without fear* **move, move, move**

[Chorus: All]

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

[Post-Chorus: Richard Camacho, *All*]

Dance with me, oh-oh

*The night is up for a slow reggaeton*

*Of those that have not been danced for a long time*

[Chorus: Richard Camacho]

Do you know I like it when I take you to the floor?

I know you like this reggaetón lento

This ain't stopping, baby, 'till I say so

Come get-come get some more, ay

[Verse 3: Zabdiel de Jesús, *Joel Pimentel*]

(It's impossible) It's impossible to delay the hours

Every minute with you is a dream

(I'd like to) I'd like to be her confidant

*Why don't you dare and we do it now?*

*Don't get timid*

*It's you and me alo-oh-oh-ne*

[Chorus: All]

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

[Chorus: All]

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

I just looked and I liked her

I got close and invited her: "Let's dance, eh?"

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

[Post-Chorus: All, *Erick Brian Colón*]

Move, move, eh-eh-eh

Dance it, dance it

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

Move, move, eh-eh-eh

Dance it, dance it

The night is up for a slow reggaeton

Of those that have not been danced for a long time

(*Yeah*)

(*Who are we?*)

CNCO!

(*O'Neill, Bory*)

[Outro: Erick Brian Colón, *Christopher Vélez*]

How good she looks

Her figure drives me crazy (*Figure!*)

That short outfit looks good on her

Combined with her brown lipstick

How good she looks

[Verse 1: Leigh-Anne Pinnock, *Jade Thirlwall*, **Perrie Edwards**]

Boy, I can see the way you dance and move that body

I know it's crazy, but I feel like you could be

The one that I've been chasin' in my dreams

*Boy, I can see you lookin' at me like you want it*

**Oh, usually I'm like, "Whatever," but tonight**

**The way you moving got me where I might**

Tonight we're dancing un reggaetón lento

Just get a little closer, baby, let go

(***Just get a little closer, baby, let go, hmm***)

[Verse 2: Jesy Nelson, *CNCO*, **Zabdiel de Jesús**]

Excuse me, baby boy, just had to dance with you now

See, there's nobody in here that comes close to you, no

Your hands are on my waist, my lips you wanna taste

Come *muévete, muévete, muévete* (*Oh, hey!*)

**Our bodies on fire, we full of desire**

**If you feel what I feel, throw your hands up higher** (*Hey!*)

Oh-woah, boy, I wish that this could last forever

'Cause every second by your side is heaven
