Forming in 1997, the members were only 15 when the band was formed. They were signed to a major label in 1999, and their major debut single, "Hanasaku Inochi Aru Kagiri", was a moderate success, reaching number 25 on the Oricon charts. They were known for their impressive style, which had an aggressive, progressive tone, with angelic melodies by frontman Yuki. By the summer of 2000, they were at their career peak, and their albums were selling pretty well for such a young band. However, on Halloween 2000, the guitarist and main songwriter of the band, Kazuki, died at the young age of 19. Soon after that, the band decided it was time to split. The vocalist (Yuki) and the drummer (Kazuhiro) formed Rice later that year, while the bassist (Yukito) embarked on a solo project. The band was resurrected for a short time in 2012 with all remaining members to celebrate Kazuki's 13th memorial.

Que Sabes Tu
Raphael Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

De mis secretos deseos
De mi manera de ser
De mis ansias y mis suenos
Que sabe nadie
Que sabe nadie

De mi verdadera vida
De mi forma de pensar

De mis llantos y mis risas
Que sabe nadie
Que sabe nadie

Que sabe nadie
Lo que me gusta o no me gusta de este mundo
Que sabe nadie
Lo que prefiero o no prefiero en el amor
A veces oigo sin querer algún murmullo
Y no hago caso y yo me rio y me pregunto

Que sabe nadie
Si ni yo mismo muchas veces se que quiero
Que sabe nadie
Por lo que vibra de emoción mi corazon
De mis placeres y mis íntimos deseos
Que sabe nadie
Que sabe nadie

De aquello que me preocupa
Que no me deja dormir
De lo que mi vida busca
Que sabe nadie
Que sabe nadie

De porque doy siempre el alma
Cuando me pongo a cantar
De porque mis carcajadas
Que sabe nadie
Que sabe nadie

Que sabe nadie
Lo que me gusta o no me gusta de este mundo
Que sabe nadie
Lo que prefiero o no prefiero en el amor
A veces oigo sin querer algún murmullo
Y no hago caso y yo me rio y me pregunto

Que sabe nadie
Si ni yo mismo muchas veces se que quiero
Que sabe nadie
Por lo que vibra de emoción mi corazon
De mis placeres y mis íntimos deseos
Que sabe nadie
Lo que me gusta o no me gusta de este mundo
Que sabe nadie
Lo que prefiero o no prefiero en el amor
A veces oigo sin querer algún murmullo

Y no hago caso y yo me rio y me pregunto
Que sabe nadie

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Raphael's song "Que Sabes Tu" explore the idea that nobody truly knows the deepest secrets and desires of a person. The verses detail various aspects of the singer's life, such as his personality, emotions, and preferences, and then question who really knows these things about him. The repeated refrain of "Que sabe nadie" emphasizes this sentiment of secrecy and unknowability.

The singer also acknowledges that even he himself may not fully understand his own desires and emotions at times. He hears whispers and gossip about himself but chooses to ignore them, preferring to laugh and question what anyone truly knows.

Overall, "Que Sabes Tu" is a powerful anthem for individuality and the complexity of the human soul. It suggests that no matter how well we think we know someone, we can never truly understand everything about them.
