Todo Lo Que Nos Gusta

Embracing the Fatal Romance: Sidonie's 'Todo Lo Que Nos Gusta'

Sidonie's song 'Todo Lo Que Nos Gusta' delves into the intoxicating allure of self-destructive behaviors and the passionate, yet doomed, nature of a tumultuous relationship. The repeated line 'Todo lo que nos gusta nos va a matar mañana' (Everything we like will kill us tomorrow) sets the tone for the song, highlighting the inevitable consequences of indulging in dangerous pleasures. This sentiment is further emphasized by the phrase 'es mejor reinar en el infierno que servir en el cielo' (it's better to reign in hell than serve in heaven), suggesting a preference for living intensely, even if it leads to ruin, rather than leading a mundane, safe existence.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a dramatic and fatalistic romance. The narrator describes themselves as 'tu ruina' (your ruin) and their partner as 'mi final' (my end), indicating a mutual recognition of their destructive influence on each other. The imagery of a 'joven conde victoriano' (young Victorian count) and a 'diva que almuerza con ginebra en el Berlín del treinta y dos' (diva who lunches with gin in 1932 Berlin) evokes a sense of historical decadence and doomed elegance, adding a layer of romanticism to their self-destruction.

The song also touches on themes of addiction and the inescapable pull of a toxic relationship. The lines 'Mis venas siempre te llevarán a mi sistema nervioso central' (My veins will always lead you to my central nervous system) suggest a deep, almost physiological connection that is hard to break. Despite the awareness of their impending doom, the characters in the song seem resigned to their fate, choosing to embrace their destructive tendencies rather than seeking a way out. This acceptance is poignantly illustrated in the imagery of a slow procession with a 'corona de flores en mi funeral' (crown of flowers at my funeral), symbolizing the inevitable end of their passionate, yet fatal, romance.
