The Melancholic Reflections of 'En Blanco y Negro'

The song 'En Blanco y Negro' by Silvina Garre is a poignant reflection on love, loneliness, and the bittersweet nature of human connections. The lyrics open with the narrator waking up and seeing someone they describe as always beautiful, suggesting a deep and enduring affection. The imagery of the first lights of the day hints at new beginnings and the possibility of change, yet there is a sense of melancholy that pervades the song.

The chorus reveals a more personal connection, as the narrator expresses a love and longing for someone who is missed deeply. The repetition of 'Como yo' (like me) emphasizes a shared experience of love, judgment, and denial. This could indicate a complex relationship where the narrator feels a strong bond but also acknowledges the difficulties and perhaps the judgment they have for the person they love. The mention of not being able to go far without crying underscores the depth of the emotional attachment and the pain of separation.

The song also touches on the theme of loneliness, with the narrator observing that people do not listen to the person's song and do not understand their solitude. The metaphor of an abyss and a chessboard in black and white could represent the city of Buenos Aires, suggesting a place of contrasts and extremes, where joy and fragility coexist. The narrator feels a kinship with the city, sharing its laughter and vulnerability. Overall, 'En Blanco y Negro' is a deeply emotional song that explores the complexities of love, the pain of loneliness, and the connection one feels with their surroundings.
