Letra del Tango TBC

Te besé
y te cabriaste
de tal manera
que te pusiste
hecha una fiera.
Y hasta quisiste,
sin más motivo,
darme el olivo
por ser audaz.

Total
no es para tanto,
no ves
que estaba ‘colo’.
Pensá
que fue uno sólo
y al fin
te va a gustar.
No digas que no,
que cuando sepas
besar,
dando la vida
serás
tu quien me pida
y sé
qué me dirás.

Bésame,
que no me enojo,
bésame,
como en el cine.
Un beso de pasión,
que al no poder respirar,
me detenga el corazón.
Bésame,
Negro querido,
el alma
dame en un beso
que me haga estremecer
la sensación
de ese placer.

English lyrics of the Tango "TBC"

I kissed you
and you balked
in such a way
that you became
fiercely wild.
And even wanted,
without any reason,
to leave me hanging
for being bold.

After all,
it’s not so much,
don’t you see
that I was ‘mad’.
Think
it was just one
and in the end
you’re going to like it.
Don’t say no,
because when you learn
to kiss,
giving your all,
you’ll be
the one asking me
and I know
what you’ll say.

Kiss me,
I won’t get mad,
kiss me,
like in the movies.
A kiss of passion,
which makes me unable
to breathe,
should stop my heart.
Kiss me,
my dear Black,
give me your soul
in a kiss
that makes me shiver
with the sensation
of that pleasure.

Story behind the Tango TBC

The lyrics of “TBC” reflect a playful yet intense confrontation between lovers surrounding a kiss. The narrative begins with a kiss that seemingly triggers an unexpected reaction—turning playful affection into a bout of anger and misunderstanding. The phrase “Te besé y te cabriaste” indicates the initial kiss and the subsequent emotional reaction. Here, the person being kissed reacts strongly, possibly due to surprise or a misunderstanding of intentions. The lyrics explore themes of passion, reconciliation, and emotional expression within a romantic context.


Symbolism of TBC

The tango uses the kiss as a central symbol, representing both conflict and deep affection. The repeated pleas to “Bésame” (kiss me) towards the latter part of the song symbolize a longing for reconciliation and deeper connection. The mentions of kisses “like in the movies” and those that can stop one’s heart emphasize the idealistic and dramatic nature of love and romance often depicted in media, suggesting a desire for a love that is both profound and electrifying.


TBC in Historic Context

Recorded in 1953, “TBC” emerges in post-World War II Argentina, a period marked by significant political and social changes. During this era, tango music often reflected the sentiments of the common people, serving as an emotional outlet and a form of expression against societal struggles. The direct and passionate appeal in “TBC” could be seen as mirroring the societal desire for expression and emotional freedom during a time of transition and uncertainty in Argentina.
