A difficult path to be accepted by the most passionate fans, but which is building the roots of a raggaeton in Italian sauce, a movement that could no longer be supported only by the summer hit: this is the attempt by Fred De Palma, who after the successes of “Once again”, “Se illuminaba” and “Paloma” with Anitta, has released another single from the next album, “I’ll reach you”. The song, which traces the reggaeton and Latin sounds, also proposed in the previous songs, tells the distance between the two protagonists, with clear references to the urban landscape and the desire of the characters to meet, to get lost in the lightness of sentiment.
The meaning of I will reach you
The project “Uebe“by Fred De Palma laid the foundations for a culture, that reggaeton, which in Italy has undergone a demonization, labeled as a summer phenomenon capable of producing “one shot” hits. The project published in 2019, which has also achieved platinum certification, and which includes singles such as “Lit up” with Ana Mena, five platinum discs in Spain, and “Once again”, which recently received its sixth platinum certification, also tells of the singer’s commitment to bringing the audience closer to reggaeton, sometimes even extracting it from the summer context. In this sense, the piece published in the last hours by the Turin artist, “I’ll join you“, could very well be an example of yet another attempt by the singer, who this time used an urban imaginary to tell a story made of passion, travel and pursuits. Fred De Palma tries to trace the concept of the journey that unites, as when sings: “Don’t leave me alone, come with me if you want to take flight, that if all the magic ends, the chill of jealousy will come and take us to the ground.” On the other hand, the concept of reunion, of being together, a resolution of closeness is fundamental. which is expressed more directly in the refrain: “I will reach you to be much closer”.
The text of I will reach you
Uebecita how are you
Stay in the area tonight what do you do
I’ll go crazy
You will go crazy
Don’t tell me you’d never go with me
I know the wind of fate who knows where it will lead
Just to be close to you tonight between the notes
That come out of the window around your city
I follow you and I don’t care where you go
If you call tonight I will answer you
To tell you a hundred times with you I’ll be there
And I don’t care how many kilometers
You think harder of me until I’m there
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
To be much closer
Don’t leave me alone, come with me if you want to take flight
That if all the magic ends
Here comes the cold of jealousy to bring us to the ground
Look where they are
At the highest point in the world
The void speaks to us is profound
Look inside, look around
Uebe
I know the wind of fate who knows where it will lead
Just to be close to you tonight between the notes
That come out of the window around your city
I follow you and I don’t care where it goes
If you call tonight I will answer you
To tell you a hundred times I’ll be there for you
And I don’t care how many kilometers
You think harder of me until I’m there
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
to be much closer
There is no distance under the same sky
I made a wish that looks a bit like you
You ask me where I am before how I am
Don’t tell me you miss me because I already know so much
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
I’ll join you
to be much closer
