Wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wieWie hoort 't kanarietje fluiten
Maar ziet het vogeltje niet

Wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wie
Zou dat dan komen misschien
Omdat de mensen niet luisteren
Enkel zichzelf willen zien
Wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wie, wie

Kijk, men heeft gelijk




En niemand wil

Overall Meaning

The song "Wie, Wie, Wie" by Koen Crucke presents a reflection on the way people perceive the world around them. The repeated use of "Wie" (who) creates a sense of questioning, and the reference to the canary who can be heard singing but cannot be seen suggests that people often focus on what is visible and tangible, rather than paying attention to the more subtle aspects of life. The lyrics suggest that this lack of awareness and sensitivity results in people being unable to perceive the beauty and wonder that surrounds them. The final lines of the song point out the irony of people being so convinced of their own opinions that they become deaf to the world around them, unable to hear the canary's song.


In essence, the song is about the importance of being present in the moment, listening to the world around us, and experiencing life fully. The message of the song is particularly relevant in today's society, where many people are so preoccupied with their own concerns that they fail to appreciate the simple pleasures of life.
