They sing in English and Spanish, often mixing both languages in a single song or even line. Human and animal rights are frequent subjects in their lyrics. The band mixes punk music with other genres such as reggae, pop, tango, thrash metal and others.
As the band became well known, skinheads who enjoyed the band's aggressive music in a violent way started to show up at concerts, prompting singer Nekro to call the band's genre Antifascist gay hardcore in an attempt to get rid of those fans. For this reason Fun People is sometimes confused as queercore.
Early on, the band was called Anesthesia (as a tribute to Cliff Burton). When the band was about to release their first album, planned to be self-titled, they found out someone else had already copyrighted Anesthesia as a band name. Fun People, the name of a fanzine Nekro made and sold at the band's concerts, was chosen as the band's new name and Anesthesia remained as the album's title.
Dear
Fun People Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
un mundo pacifico y verde
y que huela a paz hasta el fin de los tiempos,
yo no quiero sufrir en este mundo yo te ayudo,
vos ayudame yo no quiero llorar en este mundo,
yo te sonrio, vos sonreime yo no quiero sufrir en este mundo,
yo te amo, vos amame y perdona, perdoname
hijo mio el mundo tu mundo no es como yo lo soñe,
podras observar que las mentiras y el odio manejan el mundo,
perdoname hijo mio.
In the song "Dear" by Fun People, a parent (presumably the mother) is addressing her child, whom she calls "hijo mio" (my son). The lyrics convey a heartfelt plea for peace and love in the world. The parent explains that she had dreamt of a peaceful and green world that smells like peace, and she does not want to suffer in this world. She essentially asks her child for help and support because she wants him to experience happiness as well. This sentiment is further reiterated throughout the song, with the parent expressing that she does not want to cry or suffer in this world, but instead wants to smile and live happily through her child. The parent even goes on to say that she loves the child and asks for his forgiveness in advance.
However, the song takes a bit of a melancholic turn as the parent confesses that the world, specifically the child's world, is not what she had dreamt of. She laments that when the child opens his eyes, he will see that lies and hatred are what run the world. Ultimately, the parent apologizes to her child and expresses her helplessness in the situation, as if to say that she cannot shield him from the harsh realities of the world.
Overall, the song seems to convey a sense of desperation for a better world, and the parent's love for her child is the driving factor behind this plea. It is a reminder that the world is not always kind, but if we can band together with love and support for one another, perhaps we can create the world that the parent in the song dreamed of.
