Com essa proposta surgiu a Manfred, retomando no ano de 2005 uma trajetória iniciada alguns anos antes, mais precisamente no ano de 1999.
Com o primeiro CD Demo lançado no final de 2005, a banda passou a fazer shows por todo o circuito independente carioca , em eventos e locais como Teatro Odisséia, Saloon 79, Bar Convés, Todas as Tribos , Alternatilha, Festa Regret, Café Etílico, conquistando cada vez mais seu espaço e formando seu público.
Essas seguidas apresentações, bem como a divulgação do som na internet acabaram despertando interesse da mídia, resultando em matérias, entrevistas, e resenhas veiculadas em jornais e sites como O Globo , Revista Rock Press, Ilha Notícias , O Globo – Ilha, Site E-Revista.
Recentemente, a banda conquistou destaque no site PALCO MP3 ( www.palcomp3.com.br ) , site este que contém o trabalho de cerca de 4 mil bandas independentes do cenário nacional.
A banda ocupou o 1º Lugar na categoria POP/ROCK do RJ , chegando a emplacar 3 músicas de seu primeiro Cd Demo no top 50 ( “Sincero” , “Quando” e “Chuva” ).
No mesmo período, foi selecionada entre mais de 150 bandas para participar das seletivas para o Mada, promovida pela revista de música Laboratório Pop.
Influenciada por grupos como U2, Coldplay, Keane , Radiohead , Legião Urbana e Smiths a banda segue em frente com sua trajetória rumo a tornar sua música conhecida em todo o país.
A revista Rock Press do mês de março, um dos principais veículos de divulgação do rock no Brasil, já afirma em sua resenha sobre o Cd Demo que “o pop folk delicado da Manfred é uma boa aposta”.
O conceituado crítico do Globo, Antônio Carlos Miguel, já afirmou que o Cd Demo contém canções originais e de apelo radiofônico ...
Em 2006, a banda já lançou um single com duas inéditas, “A Caminho do Sol” e “Voar” e segue em estúdio gravando seu primeiro Cd, que deverá ser lançado até o fim do ano.
Agora a hora é de cair na estrada ...

Question
Manfred Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I went to those who close the open door
And turning the key I sat and spoke to those
inside of me
They answered my questions with questions
And they pointed me into the night
Where the moon was a star painted dancer
They reached to my centre of reason
And pulled on the touchstone that's there
The shock of that light had me reeling
And I fell into the depths of despair
Turning the key I sat and spoke to those
inside of me
They answered my questions with questions
And they set me to stand on the brink
Where the sun and the moon were as brothers
And all that was left was to think
They answered my questions with questions
And they pointed me into the night
And the power that bore me had left me alone
To figure out which way was right
The song "Questions" by Manfred Mann's Earth Band features dream-like imagery that depicts a journey of self-discovery. The singer shares about a dream in which they visit a group of people who represent their inner selves. The dreamers turn the key and unlock the door to their own consciousness, revealing a world of light and beauty. However, the questions they receive in reply to their own inquiries only lead to more questions, and they are left to contemplate the meaning of their existence.
The song's message is one of introspection and self-exploration. The singer must come to terms with the fact that there are no easy answers, and that the truth lies within, waiting to be discovered. The dream state serves as a metaphor for this journey, indicating that the answers we seek may not always be clearly visible in the waking world. The overall mood of the song is somber and reflective, suggesting that the process of soul-searching is often a difficult and challenging one.
Overall, "Questions" is a thoughtful and introspective piece that encourages listeners to look inward for answers to life's biggest questions. It speaks to the universal human desire for meaning and purpose, and suggests that although the journey may be difficult, the rewards of self-discovery are well worth the effort.

БЕСПОДОБНЫЕ ПЕСНИ У МАНФРЕД МАН. . МОЯ ЛЮБИМАЯ ГРУППА. ДА ГЛЯДЯ ПРАВДЕ В ГЛАЗА
ВСЕ РОК ГРУППЫ ДА И НЕ ТОЛЬКО .КОТОРЫЕ ВОЗНИКЛИ В СЕРЕДИНЕ ПРОШЛОГО ВЕКА ЭТО ПРОСТО ТАЛАНТЛИВЫЕ ЛЮДИ. КОТОРЫЕ ПО ВЕЛЕНИЮ СВОЕЙ ДУШИ НАПИСАЛИ И СПЕЛИ ЧЕЛОВЕЧЕСТВУ СВОИ БЕСПОДОБНЫЕ ПЕСНИ.
В КОТОРЫХ ПОДНЯТЫ МНОГО ТЕМ И ПРОБЛЕМ МНОГО ОПИСАНО ЖИЗНЕНЫХ СИТУАЦИЙ . И ПРАВДА ЖИЗНИ. ФИЛОСОФИЯ ЖИЗНИ.
ЧЕМ И ЗАКРАЛАСЬ К ЭТИМ ГРУППАМ ЛЮБОВЬ И ПОЧИТАНИЕ ИХ ТВОРЧЕСТВА.

I remember when this song came out in the 70's one of my top favorite songs of all times. It says It all! Well crafted song!
@a.liutaio2207
Великолепная песня, за это надо Нобелевскую премию давать! 👍
@robertolacibalmata8359
All rockers never grow old. You know, because they dies young but they were still alive.
@Mompfried
I've loved this song since I heard it for the first time (was 16 or so). Now, I'm 61 and this song still gives me chills whenever I listen to it. One of my all-time favourites.
