We sing observational songs about everyday life; why do ‘Kraft’ cream cheese spell ‘Kraft’ with a ‘K’? Its just not right.
Why does the white deodorant lines on my black dress always attract the wrong sort of men? If you often ask questions like these, then come watch us play.
We’ll buy you a tin of malt for tasty milkshakes, or a beige turtle neck pant suit. It’s your call. You’ve got nothing to lose, except 300 bucks, your mobile phone and most of your self dignity.
Mainly based in the hills of Madrid, Lua spend their waking hours making solar system sculptures with nothing but a hot glue gun and twine. We sometimes write songs, but their always so horrible that we sing them into a small glass jar and float them out to sea where only the fishies will be disturbed by the gut wrenchingly atrocious sound we make.
But as Kurt Cobain once said, ‘fish feel no pain’, so better them than you, right? So why all this? Well our main goals as a band are clear and set out in front of us.
We WILL see Posh Beckham with her kit off, braid the hair of an unknown layabout, make carbonara for a large gaggle of Australian figbirds and one day, maybe, just maybe, capture a repressed minority group, strip them of all their worldly possessions, have our way with the women, kill the men, and make the children make impossibly tiny furniture for the mansion we’re making for G.I Joe and Polly Pocket to live in. Look out.

Lua Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
talvez o tempo nos mostre
a falta de sua importância
bebemos as dor dos cortes
quando fincados na ignorância
profundo como as crenças
teias que impedem a dança
perdido o bailado se foi
o sono quem rege é o tempo
de manto usamos o medo
sonhamos com a terra do nunca
deitado em berço esplêndido
a fome?
A fome por aqui nunca passa
começa dentro da mente de gente que não vê alegria
e por pouco quase esteve contente
mas a verdade um dia chega
trazendo de inicio um surto
susto de perceber que a muito
tem vivido no escuro
sentemos é o banquete da vida
servindo evolução
E contratempos na carcaça sofrida
desarma toda a ilusão
Carapaça? a defesa nos bota
De vítima a opressor
E colorida foi a venda vestida
que tapava uma vida sem cor
Foi o tempo em que a oração fingiu ser saída pra isso
É momento de se enxergar que estar vivo é um compromisso
levanta, mesmo que ainda com fome
de tudo o que mundo nos por
mas sabemos no mais profundo que a fome
é falta de amor
desejo bons ventos a ti
que escolheu navegar em verdade
sabendo que de tudo o que somos
do todo
somos a metade
vá leve a cura por onde andar
o perdão pra poder retornar
ao amor que unifica as partes
que o medo tentou separar
e lembre-se dentro de ti
se encontra a primeira trilha
não demore
abra a porta
e transforme sua propria vida .
The lyrics of Luá's song "Fome" touch on various themes, including the passage of time, the impact of ignorance, the struggle for happiness, and the importance of self-discovery and transformation.
The first paragraph reflects on the significance of time and how it reveals the lack of importance in certain aspects of life. The pain caused by ignorance is compared to wounds, suggesting that ignorance can be harmful and damaging. The reference to deep beliefs and webs that hinder dance implies that certain beliefs and structures can limit personal growth and freedom. The loss of a joyful dance symbolizes the fading of innocence and happiness.
In the second paragraph, the lyrics explore the influence of time and fear on human existence. The use of the metaphor of sleep being governed by time indicates that fear controls our actions and decisions. The reference to dreaming of the "terra do nunca" (Neverland) and being in a state of passive comfort embodies the longing for escapism and a sense of safety. However, the hunger that persists suggests that true contentment is unattainable in this state.
The third paragraph delves into the concept of personal growth and evolution. It acknowledges that setbacks and challenges are inevitable, but they also dismantle illusions and prompt self-reflection. The lyrics suggest that self-defense mechanisms often turn individuals into oppressors, highlighting the transformative power of self-awareness. The line about a colorful blindfold symbolizes a life devoid of meaning and vibrancy. It emphasizes the need to recognize that prayer alone is not a solution, but rather, embracing the responsibility of being alive.
The final paragraph speaks of resilience and hope. Despite experiencing hunger for various aspects of life, the lyrics encourage listeners to persevere and seek fulfillment. The lyrics propose that love is the antidote to the hunger within, emphasizing the importance of love and compassion. Good wishes are extended, acknowledging the individual's choice to navigate life with truth and understanding. The lyrics remind the listener that they possess the power to heal themselves and others, to forgive, to unite, and to make meaningful changes in their own lives.
