Rock
Hugo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You think you're leaving footprints
But it's craters that you're making
Try to spread the love 'round
But it's names that you're taking
It's crowded in your clutches and
The pressure's got me breaking

Unwind, refill, prepare
For some of that rock and roll delight
Distilled, lay bare
And it keeps me thinking
I'm your weekend lover on the side

So just put on the golden handcuffs
And let me walk you out of here
And how long can you linger
When you're living off of tears?

And who could ever turn you down
When you turn on all of the lights in town?

Unwind, refill, prepare
For some of that rock and roll delight
Distilled, lay bare
And it keeps me thinking
I'm your weekend lover on the side
On the side

And who could ever turn you down
When you turn on all of the lights in town?

Unwind, refill, prepare
For some of that rock and roll delight
Distilled, lay bare
And it keeps me thinking




I'm your weekend lover on the side
On the side

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Hugo's song "Rock 'N' Roll Delight" are reflective of the artist’s philosophy on life and love. He implies that the persona of the song is trying to make an impact in the world by leaving “footprints.” However, these footprints are not positive or uplifting, but actually destructive, as they create “craters." Despite the persona's intentions to spread love, they are actually causing harm by taking away identities from people. The persona is holding people captive, and the pressure and strain of this hold is causing them to break.


The chorus of the song then contrasts this dark and heavy tone with a more upbeat and positive mantra. The phrase "Unwind, refill, prepare" suggests that the best way to counteract the feelings of suffocation and anxiety is to take time out to relax, recharge and prepare. The persona then goes on to describe a particular way they find joy, which is through music. This delight, or happiness, is distilled, meaning it is pure and concentrated, and is evidenced by the persona’s description of themselves as a “weekend lover” of rock and roll. The song ends on an uplifting note, highlighting the power of music to transform - “who could ever turn you down, when you turn on all of the lights in town?”


Line by Line Meaning

You think you're leaving footprints
You believe that you're making a notable impact on the world


But it's craters that you're making
Your actions are actually causing damage and harm to those around you


Try to spread the love 'round
You attempt to bring joy and happiness to others


But it's names that you're taking
However, you only care about personal recognition and achieving a prominent status


It's crowded in your clutches and
You hold onto people too tightly


The pressure's got me breaking
This behavior is causing others to feel overwhelmed and stressed


Unwind, refill, prepare
Take a moment to relax, re-energize, and ready yourself for an upcoming experience


For some of that rock and roll delight
Get ready to enjoy the excitement and energy of rock and roll music


Distilled, lay bare
Pure and unadulterated, with nothing to hide


And it keeps me thinking
These experiences make me ponder and reflect


I'm your weekend lover on the side
I'm just filling a temporary role in your life, as a weekend companion


So just put on the golden handcuffs
Give in to the temptation and pleasures of life, even if it comes with a cost


And let me walk you out of here
I'll be the one to lead you away from the stress and anxiety of reality


And how long can you linger
How much longer can you stay in this situation before it becomes unbearable?


When you're living off of tears?
You're surviving on your own emotional pain and suffering


And who could ever turn you down
You have an irresistible charm and magnetism


When you turn on all of the lights in town?
You shine so brightly, illuminating everything around you


On the side
Just a temporary escape or indulgence

ผมฟังมานานมากแล้วไม่ว่าเพลวไทยหรือสากลแกวางคำได้ดีมากแต่ไม่เข้าใจว่าคนที่ฟังเพลงแกมีน้อยมากในยุคนี้ผมเคยถามน้องๆวัยรุ่นว่าเคยฟังหรือเปล่าเค้าตอบว่าไม่เคยฟัง..
บอกได้เลยว่าเพลงของแกไม่เคยอิงกระแสเลยมีตัวตนของดนตรีดีมากครับ
