Beijo Fuleiro (feat. Diego e Victor Hugo)
Lauana Prado
The Lingering Ache of a Broken Promise
Lauana Prado's song 'Beijo Fuleiro,' featuring Diego e Victor Hugo, delves into the emotional aftermath of a broken relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who was left behind with the promise that they would be forgotten after just a casual kiss. However, the reality turns out to be quite different. The repeated attempts to move on, symbolized by 'the first, second, and third kisses,' fail to erase the lingering memories and emotions tied to the past relationship. This suggests that some promises, especially those made in the heat of the moment, are often empty and unfulfilled.
The song also touches on the superficiality of certain social interactions. The mention of 'noitadas' (nights out) and 'latinhas' (cans, likely referring to drinks) highlights the emptiness of these experiences. Despite the protagonist's ex-partner's attempts to find solace in fleeting connections and parties, they ultimately realize that these distractions are hollow. The line 'Hoje tem todo mundo e no fim disso tudo quer eu' (Today they have everyone, but in the end, they want me) underscores the irony and regret of their choices. The ex-partner's realization that they still long for the person they left behind adds a layer of poignancy to the narrative.
The recurring theme of unfulfilled promises and the inability to move on is encapsulated in the chorus. The protagonist's ex-partner 'beija, beija, beija' (kisses, kisses, kisses) but cannot 'tira minha saudade da saliva' (remove my longing from their saliva). This metaphor beautifully captures the essence of the song: no matter how many new experiences or people one encounters, the emotional residue of a significant past relationship can be hard to wash away. Lauana Prado's heartfelt delivery, combined with the poignant lyrics, makes 'Beijo Fuleiro' a powerful exploration of love, loss, and the enduring impact of broken promises.
