Vámonos

Buika's song 'Vámonos' is a passionate declaration of love that defies societal norms and class distinctions. The lyrics tell the story of two lovers who are judged by society for their differences. The opening lines, 'Que no somos iguales dice la gente,' highlight the societal perception that their lives are incompatible due to their different social standings. Despite being labeled a 'canalla' (scoundrel) while the other is considered 'decente' (decent), the narrator expresses a deep, unwavering love that transcends these superficial judgments.

The song's chorus, 'Y vámonos, donde nadie nos juzgue,' is a powerful call to escape to a place where they can love freely without the constraints of societal expectations. This desire to find a sanctuary where 'no haya justicia, ni leyes, ni nada, no mas nuestro amor' (where there is no justice, no laws, nothing but our love) underscores the intensity and purity of their feelings. It reflects a longing for a utopian world where love is the only law, free from the prejudices and restrictions imposed by society.

Buika's soulful delivery and the emotive lyrics resonate with themes of forbidden love and the struggle against societal constraints. The song captures the essence of a love that is willing to defy all odds and societal norms to survive. It speaks to the universal desire for acceptance and the right to love freely, regardless of social class or external judgments. Buika, known for her unique blend of flamenco, jazz, and soul, brings a raw emotional depth to the song, making 'Vámonos' a poignant anthem for lovers everywhere who face similar challenges.
