The Cosmic Dance of Memory and Love in 'Olvidamos'

Camilo Séptimo's song 'Olvidamos' is a poetic exploration of memory, love, and the cosmic connection that binds us. The lyrics open with a nostalgic reflection, where the narrator recalls a distant love, likening it to the ebb and flow of ocean waves. This imagery sets the tone for a journey through time and space, where the presence of the loved one is both transient and eternal, coming and going like the tides.

As the song progresses, the narrator grapples with the absence of their beloved, questioning how to find them once more. This search is not just physical but also metaphysical, as it delves into the deeper realms of existence and consciousness. The repeated phrase 'Olvidamos regresar' (We forgot to return) suggests a cyclical pattern of losing and finding, a dance that is both frustrating and beautiful. The connection to the 'fuente estelar' (stellar source) of love implies a universal, almost spiritual bond that transcends the mundane.

The song takes a philosophical turn with the mention of the 'Teoría Sintérgica,' which posits that the human brain can distort the structure of reality. This theory adds a layer of complexity to the song, suggesting that our perceptions and memories are not just personal but are shaped by the intricate workings of the universe. In this context, the search for peace and love becomes a quest for understanding one's place in the cosmos, where the mind and the universe are inextricably linked.
