An offshoot of the Denmark-based Boom Clap Bachelors massive collective, Quadron is an avant R&B (with an occasional nudge toward folk-soul) duo of multi-instrumentalist/producer Robin Braun (aka Robin Hannibal, also one-half of the duo Owusu & Hannibal) and vocalist Coco O. In 2009, Quadron began issuing their collaborations, led by the off-center mid-'60s soul throwback "Slippin," which was used in the film Se Min Kjole. A little later in the year, outside their homeland, BBC DJ Gilles Peterson was floored enough by the sparse, abstract "Day" to slot the song into the year-end All Winners special of his Worldwide program. Los Angeles' Plug Research label picked up their self-titled album for wide circulation and issued it in March 2010. Braun and Coco were subsequently sought out by numerous artists -- including Leon Ware, the Internet, and Tyler, The Creator -- for collaborations. Their cover of Michael Jackson's "Baby Be Mine" was included on the soundtrack to the 2012 film Think Like a Man. In 2013, Braun made an album with Mike Milosh as Rhye, while Coco was featured on the soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby. That June, they released their second album, Avalanche, on Sylvia Rhone's Epic-associated Vested in Culture label. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
Day
Quadron Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You treat me bright
You treat me warm
Day
Your hours are so rogue
So i wont move
You and your sunny shine
Hurts my eyes
Day
Treat me bright
Treat me warm
Treat me so I cant move
You hurt my eyes
The lyrics in Quadron's song "Day" describe the way the singer relates to and experiences the concept of "day." Day is portrayed as warm and bright, treating the singer with kindness and providing a sense of comfort. However, the singer is also aware of the disruptive and potentially damaging effects of such brightness, ultimately describing how it "hurts [their] eyes."
This song can be interpreted in many ways, but one possible explanation is that it represents the complex relationship we have with light in our lives. We rely on daylight to navigate our daily routine, but it can also be overwhelming and cause harm if we're overexposed. The singer may be struggling to find a balance between their need for light and the potential drawbacks that come along with it. Alternatively, the song could be interpreted as a personification of a significant other or relationship that brings joy and positive energy, but also has the power to cause pain.
