The story behind
Pronta entrega, according to DoReSol
The song Pronta entrega, born in 1985, delves into the urgency of desire and physical connection. Its lyrics paint a picture of anxiety and anticipation, where memories of past encounters fuel the immediate need to reunite. The title itself is a powerful metaphor, suggesting a total and unreserved surrender, prioritizing erotic impulse over any romantic idealization. This piece, written by Federico Moura alongside his brother Julio Moura, became one of the most remembered songs by the group Virus, marking a stage within the new wave sound of that decade.
This track is part of Locura, the fifth album by Virus, released in 1985. This record is considered by many to be the most elaborate and with more explicit sexual themes within the discography of the Argentine band. Locura was not only a sales success, surpassing 200,000 copies in its country, but it also consolidated Virus as part of a wave of Argentine bands that were gaining ground throughout America. The album was recognized years later, in 2006, by Al Borde magazine, ranking 158th among the 250 best Ibero-American rock albums. The duration of Pronta entrega is 4 minutes and 38 seconds.
