All together now

Live is life
Live is life
Live is life

When we all give the power
We all give the best
Every minute of an hour
Don't think about a rest
Then you all get the power
You all get the best
When everyone gives everything
And every song everybody sings

Then it's life
Live is life
Live is life
Live

Live is life, when we all feel the power
Live is life, come on stand up and dance
Live is life, when the feeling of the people
Live is life, is the feeling of the band, yeah

When we all give the power
We all give the best
Every minute of an hour
Don't think about a rest
Then you all get the power
You all get the best
And everyone gives everything and every song
Everybody sings

Then it's life
Live is life
Live
Live is life

Live
Live Is life
Live
Live Is life

And you call when it's over
You call it should last
Every minute of the future
Is a memory of the past
'Cause we all gave the power
We all gave the best
And everyone gave everything and every song




Everybody sang
Live is life

Overall Meaning

The song "Live Is Life" by the Austrian pop-rock band Opus is a celebration of the power of music and unity. The lyrics repeatedly emphasize the importance of everyone giving their all and working together to create a feeling of shared purpose and joy. The refrain "Live is life" underscores the idea that it is in the act of living, of being present in the moment, that we can truly experience the magic of music and human connection.


The verses of the song provide instructions for how to achieve this sense of unity and empowerment. The first verse outlines the conditions necessary for everyone to "get the power" and "give the best" - essentially, we must all be fully committed to the music and to each other, without worrying about taking breaks or holding back. The second verse reinforces these ideas, and also adds a call to action for listeners to "stand up and dance" and be part of the collective experience. The final verse acknowledges that this experience of "giving everything" will be fleeting, but that the memories and connections made during that time will endure.


Overall, "Live Is Life" is a simple but effective anthem for the power of music to bring people together and create transcendental moments of joy and unity.
