Jumbo (1): In the early 90's, before the creation of Jumbo, Castillo, Charly, Eddie, Chuy Guerra, Javier Othón and René Garza formed a band called Blueswagen which played mainly covers of bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, Pink Floyd, R.E.M., U2, The Police, Lenny Kravitz, Stone Temple Pilots and The Red Hot Chili Peppers. They started gaining more fans and an increasing popularity, which led to playing bars and clubs and recording many demos. BMG obtained one of the demos and started looking for them. Later the band signed with them.
In 1996, Flip joined the band and in 1997 Bugs, Eddie's brother, returned from Quintana Roo, Mexico and also joined the band. They changed the band's name to "Jumbo", after an Asian baby boy named Jumbo Jin Li who weighed at the time approximately 50 kg.
In 1997 and 1998, they recorded their first album, Restaurant, which included the singles "Monotransistor", "Siento que...", "Aquí" and "Fotografía", songs which were well received by the public.
It was 2001 and Jumbo came back with 'D.D. y ponle play' their second recording. The first sigle was 'Rockstar'. Also, a song of this album appeared on one tv commercial, the song was 'Motocicleta'.
2003 marked the band's last studio release titled Teleparque spawning the hits "En Repeticion" and "Bajo Control."
In May 2005, brothers Eddie and Bugs Wako left the band. Bugs moved with his wife to Los Angeles, while Eduardo left the band so he could pursue different musical projects. Earlier in the year, Jumbo also released a greatest hits cd/dvd package that included two new songs ("Caminando Hacia Atras" and "Hasta Que El Sol Se Apague") along with their entire music video history.
Jumbo (2) formed in Milan at the end of 1969 around singer-songwriter Alvaro Fella (whose nickname "Jumbo" gave the band their name). Their debut self-titled album was recorded in 1971 and released in 1972, the same year as the second, the highly regarded DNA. Their third and final studio album, Vietato ai minori di 18 anni?, came out in 1973. After a long period of sporadic activity, the band reformed for a concert appearance in 1989 (recorded as Live in Paris). Fella's gravelly voice and the unusual combination of acoustic and electric instruments gave Jumbo a sound unlike any other progressive band of the time.
Jumbo (3): Released debut album "C.B. Mamas" in 1999 on indie label Bright Orange Biscuit, and self titled follow up on Cargo in 2001
Nos Vamos A Encontrar
Jumbo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
que dentro de esta multitud
que aunque somos tantos siempre vamos solos.
Luego veo llegar tanta oscuridad
y que no importen los demas
tanta indiferencia nos está matando.
cada quien llega a su lugar,
aunque hoy nos intenten separar,
nos vamos a encontrar al final.
Y vuelve a caer el atardecer,
libre de pretextos para ver,
como tu sonrisa prefiere ignorarnos.
Y basta saber que al final del día
abraza al espejo para ver
como tu cerebro apaga tu corazón.
Cada quien escoge su propio rumbo,
cada quien llega a su lugar,
aunque hoy nos intenten separar.
Todo está dentro de tí,
todo está dentro de tí.
Nos y nos abrimos y buscamos un mismo ideal.
Cada quien escoge su rumbo,
cada quien llega a su lugar,
aunque hoy nos intenten separar,
nos vamos a encontrar al final.
The lyrics of Jumbo's song Nos Vamos A Encontrar express the existential loneliness and lack of connection people feel despite living in a crowded world. The song begins by highlighting the singer's struggle to find meaning and connection among a multitude of people. He observes that even though they are surrounded by so many others, the individuals are still alone. The "tanta oscuridad" or "so much darkness" refers to the apathy and indifference of others, which is making it harder for people to connect.
Later, the singer talks about the sunset, where people can see each other clearly, yet ignore each other. He describes how people tend to look inwards and ignore the outside world. The line "abraza al espejo para ver como tu cerebro apaga tu corazón" or "hugging the mirror to see how your brain shuts off your heart" refers to how people tend to be more rational and logical these days, and feelings are being ignored.
Overall, the song speaks to a universal feeling of loneliness and the struggle people have to find meaning and connection in the world. However, it also emphasizes that everyone has their path to follow, and they will eventually find each other, even if they are momentarily separated.
