A firm favorite with clubbers and DJs alike, Janeiro swept across the major European clubs like a wildfire. It has been reworked and remixed into one of the finest summer anthems ever. Pronti & Kalmani provide a new vocal version, featuring Natalie Smith on vocals, working the original mix into an uplifting summer anthem for Ibiza. Armin Van Buuren turns in a blinding trance version that has to be one of his finest moments yet. It's powerful riffs and soaring synths have already made it a favorite at Gatecrasher in the UK. On a deeper tip, James Holden takes a bow to the original, building it into a bubbling, progressive shaker that Sasha's been carrying on his recent US tour.

Solid Sessions Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is where i love to be
Running on the beach
Smiling 'cause you're next to me
This is my home
This is where i love to be
Running on the beach
This is where you saw my naked soul
In Janeiro, in Janeiro
This is where you saw my naked soul
In Janeiro, in Janeiro
This is where you saw my naked soul
In Janeiro, in Janeiro
This is where you saw my naked soul
In Janeiro
I never wanna lose you again
The lyrics of Solid Sessions's song Janeiro depict the feeling of being at home, content, and happy with the ones you love. The first verse describes a moment of pure joy, running on the beach with a smile on your face because of the presence of a special someone. The repetition of "this is my home, this is where I love to be" emphasizes the idea that home is not just a place, but a feeling that comes with shared experiences with loved ones.
The chorus shifts the focus to a specific memory that took place in Janeiro, where the singer feels like they revealed their true self to their partner. The vulnerability of showing their "naked soul" in such an idyllic setting reinforces the idea that home is where we feel safe enough to be ourselves without fear of judgement. The chorus repeats this sentiment multiple times, emphasizing the importance of this moment.
The final line of the chorus, "I never wanna lose you again," is both a declaration of love and a plea for security. In the context of the song, the memory of revealing oneself so completely is what solidified the relationship, and the singer fears losing that again. The overall theme of the song is the idea that home is where we are happiest, and finding someone to share that happiness with is what makes life truly meaningful.
