Cada cual

In 'Cada cual,' RAPHAEL delves into the theme of nostalgia, exploring how past experiences and memories shape our present emotions. The song opens with references to 'cosas olvidadas' (forgotten things) and 'tiempo que se fue' (time that has passed), setting a reflective tone. These lines suggest that while time moves on, it leaves behind 'suaves cicatrices' (soft scars), indicating that past events, whether joyful or painful, leave a lasting impact on our hearts.

The chorus emphasizes the power of music to evoke memories. When hearing an old melody, 'cada cual' (each person) feels a surge of emotion tied to their unique past experiences. This universal sentiment is beautifully captured in the line 'de recuerdos que viven todavia' (of memories that still live), highlighting how certain moments remain alive within us, even if they are kept secret in our hearts. The song suggests that these memories are deeply personal and vary from person to person, whether it's a night by the sea, a sentimental goodbye, or a soldier who never returned.

RAPHAEL's poignant lyrics remind us that everyone holds onto fragments of the past, cherishing them in their own way. The closing lines, 'cada cual acaricia todavia un poquito del tiempo que paso' (each person still caresses a little bit of the time that has passed), encapsulate the essence of the song. It speaks to the shared human experience of holding onto memories, whether they bring joy or sorrow, and how they continue to shape our identities. Through 'Cada cual,' RAPHAEL invites listeners to reflect on their own past and the memories that linger in their hearts.
