Um Cambicho Na Internet

João Luiz Corrêa's song "Um Cambicho Na Internet" humorously explores the complexities and quirks of modern online dating. The protagonist, having recently ended a relationship due to his girlfriend's infidelity, finds himself navigating the unfamiliar terrain of internet romance. He becomes enamored with a woman he meets online, who appears to be as beautiful as an actress and expresses a strong interest in him. This new form of courtship, however, comes with its own set of challenges and misunderstandings, particularly due to the use of digital communication tools and emojis.

The lyrics highlight the protagonist's struggle to understand the shorthand and emoticons commonly used in online messaging. Phrases like "kkk, shuashua, and hehehehe" leave him puzzled, leading him to ask his online love interest to repeat herself. This confusion adds a layer of humor to the song, as he suspects she might be stuttering in her writing. Despite these challenges, the relationship progresses, and the woman begins to exert control over him, advising him on internet safety and asking him to delete messages from other women.

Corrêa's song captures the essence of how technology has transformed romantic relationships. It reflects the awkwardness and learning curve that often accompany online dating, especially for those who are not tech-savvy. The song also touches on themes of trust and control in relationships, as the protagonist's new love interest seeks to manage his online interactions. Through its playful lyrics and relatable scenarios, "Um Cambicho Na Internet" offers a lighthearted yet insightful commentary on the impact of the internet on modern romance.
