Souvenir

M-Clan's song 'Souvenir' is a poignant exploration of nostalgia, travel, and the emotional baggage we carry with us. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who feels like an alien in this world, yearning to return to their 'planet.' This metaphorical planet represents a place of comfort and belonging, contrasting with the earthly experiences that have left the protagonist feeling out of place. The act of packing a suitcase with 'souvenirs' symbolizes the memories and experiences collected over time, both good and bad.

The song lists various cities and items, such as Madrid, Bilbao, Sevilla, Ibiza, and a photo of Che Guevara, which serve as tangible reminders of the places visited and the emotions felt. These souvenirs are not just physical objects but also emotional touchstones that evoke the presence of a loved one. The repeated mention of these locations and items underscores their significance in the protagonist's life, acting as anchors to moments of joy, love, and even sorrow.

The lyrics also delve into the duality of human experience. While the protagonist has seen and experienced much, there are things they wish they hadn't encountered. This duality is further emphasized by the line 'Soy un extraterrestre un tanto raro, me estaré volviendo humano,' suggesting a transformation influenced by human connections and emotions. The song captures the essence of feeling both alien and deeply human, highlighting the complexity of our emotional landscapes and the souvenirs we collect along the way.
