The lyrics of Kes and The Band's song "Wotless" reflect a mood of freedom and liberation. The singer is "waving away, feeling so nice" and "feeling so light, so light," and the repetitive chorus of "Ah wotless" emphasizes the carefree and uninhibited state he is in. Despite knowing that people are talking about him and judging his actions, he couldn't care less because he is living in the moment and enjoying himself. The momentary escape from life's problems is beautifully described when he says "I feel like I just win a million dollars."
The lyrics reflect the mindset during Trinidad and Tobago's annual carnival celebration, which is known for its bright colors, euphoric music, and a general feeling of release from everyday responsibilities. The song's lyrics aim to evoke this atmosphere and show a willingness to let go of inhibitions and experience the moment. The line, "Everybody watching meh, wearing a million colours" refers to the carnival tradition of wearing vibrant outfits and facing the scrutiny of other party-goers.
The song's lyrics have struck a chord with many music enthusiasts globally, but Caribbean nationals hold this song close to their hearts. Kes and The Band released "Wotless" in 2011. The song became incredibly popular not only in Trinidad and Tobago but also worldwide, reaching number one on many Caribbean music charts.
