MAREA

Madame's song 'MAREA' is a poetic exploration of emotional highs and lows, using vivid natural imagery to convey the intensity of feelings. The title itself, 'MAREA,' which means 'tide' in Italian, sets the stage for a lyrical journey through the ebb and flow of emotions. The song opens with metaphors like 'oasis in the Sahara' and 'rain and clouds from the sea,' suggesting moments of unexpected relief and beauty in the midst of life's deserts and storms. These images evoke a sense of longing and the search for solace in a turbulent world.

The recurring mention of 'Calipso' and 'alta marea' (high tide) further emphasizes the theme of emotional surges. Calypso, a nymph from Greek mythology, symbolizes enchantment and allure, drawing a parallel to the irresistible pull of strong emotions. The high tide represents the peak of these feelings, overwhelming and all-consuming. Madame's use of 'foresta, caligo, marea' (forest, mist, tide) paints a picture of a mysterious and ever-changing emotional landscape, where one can easily get lost.

The song also delves into the duality of love and pain, as seen in lines like 'rose and thorns on the sides' and 'bruises on the legs, hands on the face.' These contrasts highlight the complexity of relationships, where beauty and suffering often coexist. The repeated plea to 'stay in my dreams, love, never leave' underscores a desire to hold onto the idealized version of love, even if it means living in a fantasy. Madame's evocative lyrics and haunting melody create a powerful emotional experience, resonating with anyone who has felt the tumultuous tides of love and longing.
