Dá Pra Mim

Polegar's song 'Dá Pra Mim' is a heartfelt plea from a young man deeply infatuated with someone. The lyrics paint a picture of a person who is perceived by others as somewhat irrational or 'desmiolado' (scatterbrained) due to his intense feelings. Despite these perceptions, he is unapologetically in love and willing to do anything to win the affection of his beloved. The repeated phrase 'Dá pra mim' (Give it to me) underscores his desperation and longing for reciprocation.

The song captures the essence of youthful love, where emotions run high and rationality often takes a backseat. The protagonist admits to being 'alucinado' (crazy) for the person he loves, and this love makes him lose sleep and act in ways that might seem foolish to others. The lyrics also highlight the physical manifestations of his love, such as stumbling over words and feeling overwhelmed when he sees the object of his affection. This raw, unfiltered expression of desire is a common theme in many love songs, but Polegar's delivery adds a layer of earnestness and sincerity.

Culturally, 'Dá Pra Mim' reflects the passionate and sometimes melodramatic nature of young love in Brazilian pop music. Polegar, a boy band popular in the late 80s and early 90s, often explored themes of love and longing in their music, resonating with a generation of young fans. The song's upbeat tempo and catchy chorus make it a memorable anthem for anyone who has ever experienced the intensity of first love. The repeated assurances that he will be a 'bom rapaz' (good guy) if given a chance further emphasize his willingness to change and be better for the sake of love.
