Which PJ song do you feel closer to your roots (cultural background, family history, upbringing, country...)? It might not even be your favourite song, but it's definitely the one that talks about the place where you came from.

To me, it’s "Oceans”. It didn’t hit me instantly but, one day, I realized how close it was to some Portuguese poems and old songs. It's pretty similar to our feelings towards nostalgia, fate, missing someone, waiting and, of course, the sea that both separates and brings people back together (a powerful item in my country's culture).

This may be interesting, since there are so many of us from all around the world. Thank you.
