Chicle Cosmos

'Chicle Cosmos' by La Casa Azul is a nostalgic and dreamy song that delves into the themes of longing, memory, and the passage of time. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a past relationship, filled with both sweet and bitter moments. The narrator reflects on the time spent apart from a loved one, imagining how they might have changed over the years. This sense of change is captured in the lines, 'Llevo tanto tiempo aquí sin verte te imagino un poco diferente, algo más dulce en tus miradas y más amarga en tus palabras,' suggesting a bittersweet evolution in the person's demeanor.

The song's chorus, 'Quiero que me des un chicle cosmos, que me lleves hasta venus en tu corazón repleto de pequeños cuentos,' uses the metaphor of a 'chicle cosmos' (cosmic gum) to symbolize a desire for a fantastical escape and a return to the innocence and wonder of their shared dreams. The mention of Venus and a heart full of 'pequeños cuentos' (little stories) evokes a sense of romantic idealism and the yearning for a connection that transcends the mundane realities of life.

La Casa Azul, known for their blend of indie pop and electronic music, often explores themes of love, nostalgia, and the human experience. 'Chicle Cosmos' is no exception, as it captures the essence of longing for a past love and the hope for a future reunion. The imagery of 'aguanieve azul de madrugada' (blue sleet at dawn) and 'un mar de barro en tus zapatos' (a sea of mud on your shoes) adds a layer of poetic melancholy, grounding the fantastical elements in a tangible reality. The song ultimately speaks to the universal experience of cherishing memories and dreaming of what could have been.
