Que Bueno Que No Fui Lady Di

Gloria Trevi's song "Que Bueno Que No Fui Lady Di" is a spirited and rebellious anthem that celebrates individuality and freedom over the constraints of aristocratic life. Through the lyrics, Trevi expresses relief and gratitude for not being born into royalty, specifically referencing the late Princess Diana, also known as Lady Di. The song is filled with vivid imagery and metaphors that highlight the stark differences between a life of nobility and a life of personal freedom and authenticity.

Trevi begins by contrasting the cold, blue blood of royalty with her own passionate, red blood. This metaphor underscores her belief that a life of nobility is devoid of warmth and genuine emotion. She goes on to describe the restrictive and often hypocritical nature of royal life, where appearances and lineage dictate one's actions and relationships. The mention of marrying Prince Charles without love and the horror of adhering to strict dining etiquettes further emphasize her disdain for such a life.

The chorus reinforces Trevi's rejection of the royal lifestyle, stating that she has no desire to be a princess or a queen, not even a beauty queen. She prefers to live as a commoner, or 'plebeya,' but content and free. This sentiment is echoed throughout the song as she humorously imagines the absurdities of royal life, such as choosing friends based on lineage and dealing with unauthorized biographies. Trevi's playful yet poignant lyrics serve as a critique of the superficial and restrictive nature of aristocracy, celebrating the freedom and authenticity found in a simpler, more genuine life.
