Milano’s ‘Au Revoir’ is the musical equivalent of slamming the door, spinning on your heel, and strutting off into the night. Over a moody beat, the Italian artist sings in German and splashes in some French to deliver his final ciao to a partner who shattered his trust. The chorus (“Au Revoir, wir sehen uns nie wieder”) repeats like a dramatic mantra: Good-bye, we’ll never see each other again. Milano flips through the photo album of their past, tears every page out, and sets the whole thing on fire, turning love into bitter ashes and asking, almost sarcastically, “How does hate feel if that was love?”
Yet the song is more than just rage. It is a declaration of freedom and a lesson in karma. As he rips the pictures from the wall and walks “through the fog when the moon shines,” Milano feels his lungs fill with fresh air for the first time in ages. He vows never to cry for this person again, embracing the relief that comes when you finally choose yourself. ‘Au Revoir’ is a cathartic anthem for anyone who has ever loved too hard, been burned, and decided that the sweetest revenge is simply moving on—louder, lighter, and stronger.
