Do Jeito Que Gosto, do Jeito Que Eu Quero

Charlie Brown Jr.'s song 'Do Jeito Que Gosto, do Jeito Que Eu Quero' is a vibrant celebration of love, life, and individuality. The lyrics convey a passionate and almost rebellious spirit, emphasizing the importance of living life to the fullest and cherishing the present moment. The song opens with the protagonist expressing his exclusive devotion to a significant other, highlighting a deep, almost obsessive love. This intense affection is portrayed through vivid imagery, such as the woman coming in white to create another story and the peak of madness where she becomes naked, symbolizing vulnerability and raw emotion.

The recurring invitation 'Vem que eu te quero também, menina linda' (Come, I want you too, beautiful girl) underscores a mutual desire and connection. The lyrics suggest a shared history and a powerful bond that has endured various challenges. This relationship is not just about physical attraction but also about a profound emotional connection, as seen in lines like 'Nosso amor tem muita força, já passamos muitas coisas' (Our love is very strong, we've been through many things).

Beyond the romantic narrative, the song also delivers a broader message about life. The metaphor 'A vida é uma boca a ser beijada' (Life is a mouth to be kissed) encapsulates the idea that life is meant to be enjoyed and savored. The lyrics encourage listeners to embrace life with enthusiasm and not to waste time, as 'A vida só gosta de quem gosta de viver' (Life only likes those who like to live). This philosophy aligns with the band's overall ethos of living authentically and passionately, 'Do jeito que gosto, do jeito que eu quero' (The way I like, the way I want). Charlie Brown Jr. masterfully blends themes of love and existentialism, creating a song that resonates with the listener's desire for both personal and shared fulfillment.
