Haverá Sempre Uma Música is a tender reminder that memories have their own soundtrack. In the lyrics, the singer accepts the possibility of time erasing tattoos, lovers drifting apart, and new romances taking their place. Yet he insists that no matter how many years pass, or whose arms she ends up in, there will always be a song, a movie, or a random hour of the day that will pull her mind back to him.
Instead of fighting the inevitable changes of life, the song embraces them and celebrates the magic of art. Music and film become little time-capsules that keep feelings alive long after a relationship fades. The chorus repeats like a comforting mantra, promising that some melody on the radio or scene on the screen will forever whisper, “Remember us?” It is a bittersweet, yet uplifting ode to the way love echoes on in pop culture, proving that memories can dance on even when people move on.
David Carreira is one of Portugal's biggest pop stars. Born in Dourdan, France, in 1991 and raised in a famously musical family as the son of the singer Tony Carreira, he broke through in 2011 with the album "N.1", which went straight to number one at home. Since then he has moved easily between radio pop, ballads and dance rhythms, and in 2019 he became the youngest Portuguese artist ever to sell out the Altice Arena in Lisbon.
On "Menta" he shares the microphone with Djodje, a Cape Verdean singer, songwriter and producer born in Praia in 1989 and now based in Lisbon. Djodje grew up surrounded by music, started out as a teenager in the group TC, and has become one of the leading voices of kizomba and Afropop across the Portuguese speaking world. His warm, laid back delivery, part of it sung in Cape Verdean Creole, is what gives this song its island heat.
