Tico - Tico

Sandro Becker's song 'Tico-Tico' is a charming and whimsical ode to a beloved cat named Tico. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of Tico's constant presence and his incessant meowing, which seems to be both a source of amusement and mild exasperation for his owner, Maria. Despite Tico's 'defect' of being 'danado pra miar' (prone to meowing), Maria's affection for him is unwavering. She wouldn't give him away, trade him, sell him, or even lend him to anyone, highlighting the deep bond and unconditional love she has for her pet.

The song's repetitive structure, with Tico meowing in various locations and situations, emphasizes the omnipresence of the cat's vocalizations. From the living room to the kitchen, from the carpet to the sofa, and even during meals and throughout the night, Tico's meowing is a constant soundtrack to Maria's life. This repetition not only adds a humorous element but also underscores the idea that love and attachment come with their quirks and challenges.

'Tico-Tico' can be seen as a metaphor for the small annoyances that come with any close relationship, whether with pets or people. It reminds us that true affection often means accepting and embracing the imperfections of those we care about. Sandro Becker, known for his playful and light-hearted musical style, captures this sentiment beautifully, making 'Tico-Tico' a relatable and endearing song for anyone who has ever loved a pet or dealt with the idiosyncrasies of a loved one.
