Rocksteady
Frekenbok Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ji neapsakomai ritmingai kals į smegenis ir vėl.
Aš toks patenkintas ir nesekmes šiandiena užmirštu,
Nes tai roksteady ska roksteady.
Einu gatve, man kratosi rankos, praeivis klausia:
Bičiuli, kas tau atsitiko?
Aš tau paleisiu muzikos, kuri pati tau pasakys,
Kodėl, kai skamba ji galvoj, tai rankos pačios kratos,
O tau kratysis rankos, kojos ir galva, nes tai ska.
Ir štai šiandieną jau ne vienas taip beprotiškai krataus,
Praeivis, naujas mano draugas, straksi pagal ritmą dar labiau.
Ir jei prieisi tu prie mūsų ir paklausi, kas yra?
Tau atsakysim, tai rocksteady ska rocksteady beat.
Aplink gražu, čia daug gerų žmonių,
Tradskins, rudboyz ir šiaip linksmi veikėjai susirinko.
Ne be reikalo, ir žinom, ką mes veiksim.
Ir aš visiems šaukiu: sveiki atvykę, po velniu!
Ir man gerai, ir tau gerai, ir jai tikiuosi malonu.
Varinės dūdos ir offbytas vers iš kojų
Šią puikią muziką mes sau pasidovanojom, pirmyn!
The lyrics to Frekenbok's song "Rocksteady" describe the power and energy of the rocksteady rhythm and how it makes people want to yell, dance and sing along. It is said to be incredibly rhythmic and affects the brain in a way that makes people feel incredibly satisfied and forget about any worries or failures they may be experiencing at the moment. The song describes walking down the street and having someone ask what's happened to make the person's hands shake. The answer is that the music playing in their head is such an amazing and mesmerizing rhythm that it makes them unable to control their body's reaction to it. The lyrics then describe how the rhythm makes people come together and enjoy the music together, forgetting any differences they may have had before. The song celebrates the way that music can bring people together and create a sense of joy and community.
One interesting fact about the song is that it is sung in Lithuanian, a language that is not often heard in popular music. This adds to the uniqueness of the song and makes it stand out amongst other songs in the same genre. Another interesting fact is that the band Frekenbok was formed in 1990 in Lithuania and is considered to be one of the pioneers of the Lithuanian punk rock scene. The band is known for blending different genres of music like ska, punk, and rock into their songs. The song "Rocksteady" was released in 2006 and has been very popular in Lithuania, particularly in the underground music scene.
Another interesting fact about the song is that it features a lot of brass and woodwind instruments, which gives it a distinct sound that is not often heard in punk rock music. It is said that the song was inspired by the Jamaican reggae music from the 1960s and 1970s, which often featured a lot of brass and woodwind instruments as well. The song is also very upbeat and energetic, which makes it perfect for dancing and having a good time.

Line by Line Meaning
Ji verčia rėkti, siausti, šokti ir dainuot mane kasdien,
Everyday, the beat makes me shout, rage, dance, and sing
Ji neapsakomai ritmingai kals į smegenis ir vėl.
The irresistible rhythm gets into my brain again and again
Aš toks patenkintas ir nesekmes šiandiena užmirštu,
I forget about my failures and feel content today
Nes tai roksteady ska roksteady.
Because it's rocksteady, ska, rocksteady
Einu gatve, man kratosi rankos, praeivis klausia:
As I walk down the street, my hands move uncontrollably, and a passerby asks me:
Aš jam sakau, ei, praeivi, manęs tu paklausyk,
I tell him, 'Listen to me, stranger'
Aš tau paleisiu muzikos, kuri pati tau pasakys,
I'll play you some music that will speak for itself
Kodėl, kai skamba ji galvoj, tai rankos pačios kratos,
Why it makes your hands move on their own when the beat plays in your head
O tau kratysis rankos, kojos ir galva, nes tai ska.
And why it makes your hands, feet, and head move, because it's ska
Ir štai šiandieną jau ne vienas taip beprotiškai krataus,
And that's why, today, more and more people are going crazy dancing
Praeivis, naujas mano draugas, straksi pagal ritmą dar labiau.
A passerby, now my new friend, shakes even harder to the beat.
Ir jei prieisi tu prie mūsų ir paklausi, kas yra?
And if you come to us and ask what's going on,
Tau atsakysim, tai rocksteady ska rocksteady beat.
We'll tell you it's a rocksteady ska, a rocksteady beat.
Aplink gražu, čia daug gerų žmonių,
It's nice here, surrounded by good people,
Tradskins, rudboyz ir šiaip linksmi veikėjai susirinko.
Tradskins, rudboyz, and other happy-go-lucky folks gathered
Ne be reikalo, ir žinom, ką mes veiksim.
It's not for nothing, and we know what we're doing
Ir aš visiems šaukiu: sveiki atvykę, po velniu!
And I shout out to everyone, 'Welcome, damn it!'
Ir man gerai, ir tau gerai, ir jai tikiuosi malonu.
I feel good, and I hope you do too
Varinės dūdos ir offbytas vers iš kojų
Brass pipes and an offbeat rhythm moving our feet
Šią puikią muziką mes sau pasidovanojom, pirmyn!
We gave ourselves this great music, let's move forward!
