Siempre Así

Sandra Mihanovich's song 'Siempre Así' is a heartfelt ode to dreams, friendship, and the joy of singing. The lyrics reflect a deep appreciation for the dreams that life has granted the singer, and the joy of sharing those dreams with friends through music. The act of singing together, 'codo con codo' (shoulder to shoulder), symbolizes unity and shared passion, creating a sense of community and belonging.

The song also touches on the influence of one's homeland, suggesting that the place where we are born shapes our character. The lyrics describe a blend of dreamers and bohemians, who are 'locos enamorados' (crazy lovers) singing without even realizing it. This imagery evokes a sense of freedom and spontaneity, where music becomes a natural expression of love and life.

The chorus, 'Siempre así, te cantamos siempre así,' emphasizes the perpetual nature of this joyful singing. It speaks of a universe filled with illusions and a new world brimming with songs, with the heart dedicated to the listener. The song invites the listener to forget melancholy and embrace the beauty of life through song, making it a personal and intimate experience.

In the latter part of the song, Mihanovich reflects on the serendipity of life and the essential role of love and music. She admits that her fantasy dies if she stops singing, highlighting the intrinsic connection between her identity and her art. The playful imagery of butterflies flying again when love is present underscores the rejuvenating power of love and music. The song concludes with a poignant question about the singer's existence without the beloved, reinforcing the theme of love as a vital force in life.
