Planeador Lyrics in English Soda Stereo

Take a deep breath, press play, and imagine a vinyl record spinning slowly in a dimly lit room. That hypnotic rotation becomes a runway for the mind in Planeador, where Soda Stereo’s Gustavo Cerati invites us to climb into a paper-thin glider powered by pure imagination. Music turns the singer into a “piloto de juguetes” who soars above valleys of clouds, leaving everyday gravity behind. The track captures the child-like thrill of daydreaming, yet it never forgets the delicate nature of that escape; both the glider and the pilot feel frágil, always one gust away from tumbling back to reality.

Cerati ties this airy adventure to the ache of longing. While drifting through the sky he keeps sensing a familiar presence — the ternura de tu duda — a tender, uncertain love that haunts every detail of his journey. The song suggests that even the sweetest flights of fancy are colored by the voices we miss on the ground. In just a few verses, Planeador blends wonder, vulnerability, and nostalgia, reminding listeners that imagination can lift us high, yet it is the echo of human connection that truly keeps our hearts aloft.
