about

Until now, when people talked about a "new world", it sounded like a promise of salvation. Something we could create for ourselves out of the sum of our interests. It sounded like better air, nicer people, advanced technologies, evolution and fewer problems. But lately the term "new world" only means division, intolerance, insane dictators, presidents who stir up hatred and contempt. The ballad-like song is about this paradoxical mood we live in: Progress has turned into the opposite of what we understand as a "better world". At the end of the song, for which Da Cruz was able to enlist Arnaldo Antunes - one of the most influential musicians in Brazilian history - Mariana Da Cruz sings: "I believed in you, new world / My heart was racing / I was waiting for you, new world / I had already ordered the fanfares."
