The Dichotomy of Urban Life in 'En Avenidas'

The song 'En Avenidas' by El Kuelgue presents a poetic and somewhat abstract reflection on urban life and personal experiences. The lyrics oscillate between affirmations and negations, suggesting a sense of indecision or the complexity of emotions and situations. The phrase 'un poco sí y un poco no' (a little yes and a little no) captures this duality, indicating a state of ambivalence that many can relate to when dealing with life's challenges and decisions.

The mention of 'topper y joguineta' (sneakers and tracksuit) and 'walkman' are cultural references that evoke a sense of nostalgia and simplicity, contrasting with the complexities of modern life. The artist seems to be reminiscing about a past era while navigating the present. The reference to 'avenidas' (avenues) symbolizes the paths one takes in life, with the freedom to walk them despite the judgments of others, as suggested by the lines 'Como te ven te maltratan / A la primera te sacan / Pero en avenidas podes caminar' (As they see you, they mistreat you / At first, they take you out / But on avenues, you can walk).

El Kuelgue is known for blending various musical styles and for their lyrical creativity. This song, with its mix of personal reflection and social commentary, is a testament to their unique approach to music. The lyrics invite listeners to consider their own experiences with the push and pull of life's avenues, the judgments we face, and the nostalgia for simpler times.
