"I like to say that 'Interstellar' is my love song. I started talking about the end of a relationship and, as I sometimes do, I started making free associations. I thought a lot about the words, but not only about their meanings , but also about the rhythm, metrics, rhymes, and what they formed among themselves. And by the way, doing these exercises, I came across this word that is 'interstellar', which gives the song its name. The meaning of the music changes a little bit, because it stopped being just about an end and ended up also being about an individuality that was lost there, gaining a slightly more optimistic perspective. Because I think that 'interstellar' is a word brings a sense of grandeur, of something much bigger than us ". Explains Gabriela Lery.
