Romance En Re Sostenido flips Shakespeare’s famous idea that music is the food of love right on its head. PXNDX’s singer jokes that if that were true he would be “overweight” with romance, since he has written more than 310 songs… yet Cupid still skips his shows. The track mixes self-deprecating humor with raw frustration, painting the picture of an artist who keeps feeding the world melodies while his own heart remains on an empty stomach.
Behind the witty wordplay lies a deeper confession: the narrator is tired of merely tripping over affection, he wants to fall head-first into real love. He flirts with quitting his guitar, tries burying himself in books, even questions whether anyone else feels this lonely. In the end he admits that music is his only nourishment, a bittersweet necessity that keeps him alive but cannot heal an ever-growing scar. The song becomes an anthem for every romantic who pours out passion in art, yet still wonders where to store all that love when no one seems ready to receive it.
