«My music is melancholic, sometimes sad but hopeful. I sing about things I don’t want to talk about. I tell stories, I try to turn the dark thoughts or something painful into something beautiful. It can be delicate, soft, sometimes tribal but I try to be always true in what I write.»
Inspired by folk, pop, rock, indie, my music is a mix of it all.
On The Road
HUGO BARRIOL Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watching the sky
This one is clear
To mourn as a tear
Sunshine is gone
There is no lights
But I saw
Here we go
Fast or slow
We would be happy on the road
We would be happy on the road
I'm so exciting
And my wallet has no money
But, we'll keep on the road
We will keep on
On the road
Here we go
Fast or slow
We would be happy on the road
We would be happy on the road
On the road
Here we go
Fast or slow
We would be happy on the road
We would be happy on the road
In "On the Road," Hugo Barriol sings about the joy and freedom of traveling. He starts by describing himself sitting on a rock, looking at the sky, and feeling a sense of melancholy. But then he sees the road ahead of him, and all of a sudden he becomes excited because he knows that on the road, he can be happy no matter how much money he has in his wallet. The road is the ultimate symbol of adventure and exploration, and Barriol seems to relish in the idea of taking off and seeing where life takes him.
The lyrics are fairly straightforward, with Barriol repeating the phrase "on the road" throughout the song. But musically, there's a lot going on. The acoustic guitar drives the melody, but there are also touches of harmonica, piano, and even some electronic drums. Barriol's voice is soulful and emotive, and he brings a sense of urgency to the lyrics that makes you want to pack up and hit the road yourself.
Overall, "On the Road" is a song about escaping the daily grind and finding happiness in the unknown. It's a perfect anthem for anyone who loves to travel, and it reminds us that sometimes the best adventures are the ones we don't plan for.

I'm sitting on the road
Watching the sky
This one is clear
The moon isn't here
The sunset is gone
There is no light
But our souls
On the road
Here we go
Fast or slow
We will be happy on the road ....
My pocket's so empty
And my wallet has no money
But we will keep on the road
We will keep on
On the road
Here we go
Fast or slow...
yesss...We will be happy on the road

Absolutely wonderful! So full of sadness and, paradoxically, joy all wrapped up in tenderness. And the voice... Oh, my God! Superb! At 54 years old I thought I won't find that forgotten sensitive corner of my soul... I was so wrong! Thank you!
