Antònia Font Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
sa casa i sa teulada tan intenses,
s´al.lota s´entretén amb una planta
i deixa sa terrassa com sa Terra.
Canvies l´aigua de sa cadernera
i bufes perquè volin ses clovelles
i deixes que una verge primavera inundi
tots els metres cúbics que has pagat amb la hipoteca.
T´estim, jo volia fer un reggae,
t´estim, crec qua això és més un vals,
redunden aquestes paraules
damunt tot lo que hem fornicat.
Les quatre i el carrer se posa en marxa,
s´estressen que fan tard ses dependentes
i baixes que tens hora a en Buades,
li diràs que en el, costat el 3 i que a damunt el 4
I escures una cuina de tres dies
i agranes passadissos de cent metres
i gastes mil durets en el caprabo
i deixes la gelera més decenta.
T´estim, jo volia fer un reggae,
t´estim, crec que això és més un vals,
t´ho dic perquè no em vull fer el hippie
t´ho dic perquè ja tenc una edat.
T´estim, jo volia fer un reggae,
t´estim, crec qua això és més un vals,
redunden aquestes paraules
damunt tot lo que hem fornicat.
In Antònia Font's song "Vitamina Sol," the lyrics describe a day where a woman has excess energy due to taking vitamins. She occupies herself by tending to a plant, which makes the terrace look lively and vibrant. The song then moves on to describe the mundane tasks and chores of daily life, such as changing the water in the vase, blowing on the wind chimes, and spring cleaning. Despite the monotony, the lyrics express a deep love and affection for the person who brings joy and excitement to their life.
The chorus repeats the phrase "t'estim," which translates to "I love you" in Catalan. The singer wanted to write a reggae song to express their love, but the result ended up being more of a slow waltz. The repetition of the phrase "t'estim" and the mention of their sexual encounters, emphasize the importance of love and connection in even the most monotonous, routine moments of life.
Overall, "Vitamina Sol" speaks to the beauty of finding joy in the simplest things and the significance of the love shared between two people amidst the mundanity of daily routines.

Un dia que te sobre vitamines,

Canvies l´aigua de sa cadernera
You change the water in the trough,
