► Lyrics
So young, nothing is done
But it’s fine to make it slow
I see all the truth
And it’s quite getting hard
Well I’m done, I’m ready to face
Time please just move slow
What if I lose control?
Time is running out
I don’t know
Where would we go?
So young, life’s just began
I need to find my flow
I feel overdue
And it’s always getting hard
What if I had some faith
Just to say hello?
And if I fall then lose control
Can I just get out?
I don’t know
Where would we go?
I don’t know
I’m not quite sure
I don’t know
I’m not quite sure

► About Now We Can Talk
Under the influence of indie and alternative rock bands from the late 2000s, Now We Can Talk emerged in the summer of 2020, in Évora, Portugal. Formed by the members Ronaldd Nascimento (vocals and guitar) and Diogo Lapo (vocals and bass), who met during their music degree in Portugal. The two made a road trip to the south of the country, where they composed the first demos. Later, when returning to record their first EP, the remaining members Emanuel Rodrigues (synths and keys) and Manuel Rico (drums) were invited to join the band.
Their first EP was produced, mixed and mastered by Vitor Carraca Teixeira.
► About Nova
“Nova” exposes a young person’s conversation with himself. In the pressure of wanting to make the right choices, enjoy it while he’s young and still have time, he finds himself lost because he feels grown up enough, but still unsure about making decisions. Time, which until then was his greatest ally, becomes the enemy of his journey, which has been timed by social pressure to do everything in the system’s time.
As a child, we invest our time in school, without blinking we head to college, without breathing we look for a job, and in the end, we run the risk of realizing that we are nowhere near doing what we really wanted to do – there was not even time to thinking about the choices, we didn’t respect our internal timer, because all our colleagues were already enrolled in a course, and I couldn’t be left behind.
The message this single tries to get across is that while we are young, we probably have little or nothing done, and we need to understand that this has never been a problem. The problem is not respecting our time to do things, and realizing that it’s never too late to (re)start.
