| Description | An explanation is provided for the magical basis of love songs in which women adopt the perspective of anacondas. Just as anacondas seem to attract their prey effortlessly, so too will a woman be able to attract her desired one, if she sings as an anaconda. This explanation preceded an example of a song performance featuring such a perspective. |
