Calculista (feat. Marília Mendonça)

In 'Calculista,' Dom Vittor e Gustavo, featuring Marília Mendonça, delve into the complexities of a past relationship that continues to linger. The song narrates the story of two ex-lovers who, despite having ended their relationship a while ago, find themselves entangled once again. The protagonist initially anticipates an awkward reunion but is instead met with a passionate encounter, described as a 'flashback of mouths.' This unexpected turn of events highlights the lingering chemistry between the two, despite their separation.

The term 'calculista' (calculating) is central to the song's theme. It refers to the ex-lover's strategic move of taking a piece of the protagonist's clothing, specifically a sweatshirt, to ensure future encounters. This act of taking and not returning the clothing symbolizes a deliberate attempt to keep the connection alive, ensuring that the protagonist will have a reason to come back. The repeated visits and the intimate moments that follow underscore the manipulative yet passionate nature of their relationship.

Marília Mendonça's contribution adds depth to the narrative, as her voice embodies the female perspective of this calculated love game. The song captures the push and pull of emotions, where both parties are aware of the manipulation but are equally drawn to the intense connection they share. The lyrics reflect a mix of nostalgia, desire, and a hint of resignation, as the protagonist acknowledges the calculated moves but continues to fall into the same pattern. 'Calculista' is a poignant exploration of how love and desire can be intertwined with manipulation, creating a cycle that is hard to break.
