After forming in 2003 the band Mariamilagros, with whom he recorded a couple of EP's independently, and played in many bars in the town of Santiago, in 2006 decided to start working on simpler songs that moved away from the din of his band. The hot sound of a nylon-string guitar, the basis of almost all the cuts is this, their debut album. Holidays in the yard of my home, is the title under which christened their first production. Name that also explains the methodology with which the idea of this album takes shape. Pure and direct lyrics, FM leaves behind the complex [...]. Songs that come gradually to the ear, acoustic and without further embellishments, FM manages to approach the folk without trying anything else more to do songs."

"A native of simple and acoustic sounds, attached to the legacy of Cash and with shades of Iron & Wine or BRMC. He sometime "manages to be intimate, sometimes even autobiographical and project images that take us back to road trips with tangled hair by the wind, or guide us through our rooms in a sunny afternoon."

Fernando Milagros Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No necesito etiquetas
para saber si la sal
seca el desierto infinito
o viene del fondo del mar

No necesito respuestas
del que ya las supo dar
no necesito disfracez

para escapar

No necesito una iglesia
Para sentarme a llorar
no necesito mas redes
para ir a pescar

Quiero quitar las espinas
de esta mugre de ciudad
Quiero curar tus heridas
para que puedas nadar

Y mira la noche más grande
y no la pudimos ver
se acabó el cuento que nunca
quisiste creer

No necesito palabras
para saber lo que soy

feliz si me sigue mi sombra
sabe donde voy

Overall Meaning

In the song "Nadadora" by Fernando Milagros, the singer expresses his aversion towards social conventions and his indifference towards expectations and labels. He explains that he does not require any labels to identify the difference between the salt that dries up the infinite desert and the one that comes from the sea. Furthermore, he does not need answers from those who have already given them or wear any masks to escape the society's norms. He does not require a church to sit and cry nor more networks to go fishing.

The artist, in the song, aims to remove the thorns of the city's filth and heal the wounds of his beloved one so that she can swim in the waters freely. He emphasizes the importance of being conscious of one's emotions and identity rather than relying on the typical societal assumptions. The lyrics remind the listeners that an individual's true happiness comes from recognizing oneself rather than seeking validation from society.
