Saudade da Porra

Mari Fernandez's song 'Saudade da Porra' is a raw and unapologetic anthem about reclaiming one's freedom and authenticity. The lyrics convey a sense of dissatisfaction with a previous lifestyle that felt restrictive and unfulfilling. The phrase 'Não tava me sentindo bem' (I wasn't feeling well) sets the tone for the song, indicating a period of personal struggle and a lack of courage to make necessary changes. However, the turning point comes with the realization and subsequent liberation from these constraints, as expressed in 'Mas eu me libertei' (But I freed myself).

The song's chorus, 'Eu tava com saudade dessa porra' (I missed this damn thing), highlights a longing for a more carefree and wild lifestyle. The term 'putaria doida' (crazy debauchery) is used to describe this desired state of freedom and excitement. This choice of words reflects a rejection of societal norms and expectations, embracing a more hedonistic and spontaneous way of living. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the intensity of this longing and the joy found in reclaiming this part of oneself.

Culturally, 'Saudade da Porra' taps into a broader theme of self-discovery and the pursuit of happiness on one's own terms. It speaks to those who have felt trapped in conventional roles or relationships and have found the courage to break free. Mari Fernandez's energetic and bold delivery of the lyrics adds to the song's empowering message, making it a celebration of individuality and the pursuit of a life that truly resonates with one's inner desires.
