BEAUTIFUL NOISE
Diamond Neil Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Comin' up from the street
Got a beautiful sound
It's got a beautiful beat
It's a beautiful noise
Goin' on everywhere
Like the clickety-clack
It's got rhythm to spare
It's a beautiful noise
And it's the sound that I love
And it fits me as well
As a hand in a glove
Yes it does
Yes it does
What a beautiful noise
Comin' up from the park
It's the song of the kids
And it plays until dark
It's the song of the cars
On their furious flights
But there's even romance
In the way that they dance
To the beat of the lights
It's a beautiful noise
And it's the sound that I love
And it makes me feel good
Like a hand in a glove
Yes it does
Yes it does
What a beautiful noise
It's a beautiful noise
Made of joy and of strife
Like a symphony played
By the passing parade
It's the music of life
It's a beautiful noise
And it's the sound that I love
And it makes me feel good
Just like a hand in a glove
Yes it does
Yes it does
What a beautiful noise
Comin' into my room
And it's beggin' for me
Just to give it a tune

The cars are zooming and racing around town with urgency
But there's even romance

In the way that they dance
The cars and their movement can be interpreted as a dance
To the beat of the lights
Their movement is synchronized with the pulsating rhythm of the traffic lights
Made of joy and of strife
The noise is composed of both pleasant and not-so-pleasant sounds
Like a symphony played
It is like an orchestrated piece of music being performed
By the passing parade
Everything that is happening around me is contributing to this musical experience
It's the music of life
The noise is a representation of life itself, with all its ups and downs
Comin' into my room
Now the beautiful noise is making its way into my personal space
And it's beggin' for me
It is inviting me to take part in the experience
Just to give it a tune
It wants me to add my own creative flair to the already beautiful noise

This was one of the first songs I heard after having a cochlear implant fitted, after 20 years of not hearing any music at all. Listened to it with tears streaming down my face, such a joy to hear again.
