Gloria Estefan & The Miami Sound Machine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tut, tu-ru ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru
Set yourself free
Baby loosen up your tie
Papu mao mao, papu mao mao mao
Ooh let it loose
Ooh let it loose
Breakdown in the tempo
Cold sweat constantly
Play the radio loud and get lost in the beat
Come on baby let it slide
Papu mao mao, papu mao mao mao
Ooh let it loose
Ooh let it loose
Rock n'roll in danger from machinery
Tut, tu-ru-ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru
Sing it with me
Tut, tu-ru-ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru
Tut, tu-ru-ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru hey
Tut, tu-ru-ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru
Tut, tu-ru-ru, tut tut tu-ru-ru
One more time with lots o' soul
Almost till ya lose control
The lyrics to Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine's song Let It Loose are all about letting go and living in the moment. The song is an anthem for those who are looking to break free from their everyday lives and find liberation in the music. The opening lines encourage the listener to seek out trouble and strive for success, while the catchy refrain "Ooh let it loose" serves as a reminder to let go of your inhibitions and allow yourself to fully experience the moment. The song also urges listeners to "loosen up your tie" and "get lost in the beat," portraying a sense of carefree abandon.
The second verse speaks to the physical effects of the music, with lines like "Breakdown in the tempo" and "Cold sweat constantly" suggesting that the groove of the music is powerful enough to transport the listener to a different state of mind. The bridge of the song shifts the focus to the danger that rock n' roll faces from the constant churn of modern technology. However, the song quickly returns to its original message of release and self-expression, as the final refrain encourages listeners to sing it "with lots o' soul" and lose control.
Overall, the message of the song is clear: let loose, let go, and embrace the power of music to liberate your soul.
