Rhythm Inside
Loic Nottet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Listen to the sound of thunder
Rolling in the soul down under
Far beneath the skin, it rumbles
Step to the step of the drum that rolls inside
Be you enemy or lover
We are put here to discover
The heart that beats within each other
We gonna rapppabab tonight

And if we die , tomorrow
What’ll we have to show
For the wicked ways
Down below
The rhythm inside is telling us
We can fly tomorrow
On the beautiful wind that blows
On a cosmic track, love attack
I‘m gonna get that rhythm back

Be you enemy or brother
We were put here to discover
The heart that beats within each other
We’re gonna rompanpan ...

And if we die, tomorrow
What’ll we have to show
For the wicked ways
Down below
The rhythm inside is telling us
We can fly tomorrow
On the beautiful wind that blows




On a cosmic track, love attack
I‘m gonna get that rhythm back

Overall Meaning

Loïc Nottet's song "Rhythm Inside" is an anthem for the power and freedom of self-expression, and the beauty of human connection. The song opens with the sound of thunder, which echoes the rhythm that pulsates within each person's soul. The thunder is symbolic of the inner turmoil, struggles, and passions that lie beneath the surface of every being. The lyrics urge the listener to step to the beat of this rhythm and to embrace their own unique identity, regardless of whether they are an enemy or a lover. The song suggests that we are all put on this earth to discover the heart that beats within each other, and to connect with others in order to find ourselves.


The chorus reminds us that our time on this earth is finite, and that we should make the most of it by embracing the rhythm inside us and living life to the fullest. The "beautiful wind" that blows is a metaphor for the freedom that comes with self-expression and living authentically. The song encourages the listener to embrace this wind, to take risks, and to pursue their passions with all their might. The notion of a "cosmic track" suggests that our destiny is not predetermined, but rather something that we have the power to shape through our choices and actions. Ultimately, the song speaks to the power of human connection and the transformative power of music.

Pikos Apikos

He was 19 back then, he staged the whole performance, effects and wrote this masterpiece of a song and he had NO VOICE CRACKS. If that ain't a winner then Eurovision is more of a joke than I expected it to be in its latest form. He came 4th, with a performance worth for 1st place.
