While still a teenager, she started performing in local bars. Wishing to become a professional singer, she moved to Rio de Janeiro, leaving her studies in literature. After a gig at Mistura Fina she met Luciana de Moraes and two weeks later signed a contract with BMG.
Her debut album, Ana Carolina, was released in 1999 with songs from classic Brazillian singers like Chico Buarque and Lulu Santos, songs written by herself, and some written by others, for example, Totonho Villeroy. This album was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award.
In 2001 she realesed her second album entitled Ana Rita Joana Iracema e Carolina. In 2005 released a CD and DVD of her acoustic show with Seu Jorge entitled Ana e Jorge. The song "É Isso Ai" reached number 1 on the Brazilian charts. In late 2005, she announced that she was a bisexual. She has since released her sixth, a double CD called Dois Quartos (Two Rooms). The album received a Parental Advisory warning.
Que Sera
Ana Carolina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Da minha vida sem o seu amor
Da minha boca sem os beijos teus
Da minha alma sem o teu calor
Que será
Da luz difusa do abajur lilás
Que nunca mais vier a iluminar
Outras noites iguais?
Procurar
Uma nova ilusão não sei
Outro amor
Não quero ter além daquele que sonhei
Meu amor
Ninguém seria mais feliz que eu
Se tu voltasses a gostar de mim
Se teu carinho se juntasse ao meu
Eu errei
Mas se me ouvires vais me dar razão
Foi o ciúme que se debruçou sobre o meu coração
Que será
Da minha vida sem o teu amor
Da minha boca sem os beijos teus
Da minha alma sem o teu calor
Que será
Da luz difusa
Que nunca mais vier a iluminar
Outras noites iguais?
Meu amor
Ninguém seria mais feliz que eu
Se tu voltasses a gostar de mim,
Se teu carinho se juntasse ao meu.
Eu errei
Mas se me ouvires vais me dar razão
Foi o ciúme que se debruçou sobre o meu coração
In Ana Carolina's song "Que Sera," the singer chronicles the end of a relationship and the aftermath of betrayal. She speaks candidly about the wasted time she spent with her ex-partner and the pain she endured from their deceit. She urges her former lover to remove her from their social media and forget that they ever met. Ana also reflects on the mistakes she made in the relationship, admitting that she was foolish not to see through her partner's facade earlier.
However, the song's chorus is a declaration of strength and resilience. Ana sings, "Que sera, sera," which is Spanish for "what will be, will be." The phrase suggests that she has accepted the ending of the relationship and will be okay no matter what happens next. She reports that she is doing fine without the ex-partner's presence in her life, and they cannot bring her down. Overall, "Que Sera" is a triumphant anthem about moving on from heartbreak and embracing a positive future.
