Reamonn was a German rock and pop band that is well known all over Europe. They recorded six albums and disbandoned in 2010.
In 1998, Rea Garvey left his band The Reckless Pedestrians and home town of Tralee, Ireland to go to Germany with not a lot money and a demo CD in his pocket. He put an ad into local paper Stockacher Anzeiger stating, "Singer requires band for recording and live shows." Mike Gommeringer (Gomezz) saw this ad and accurately assumed it must have been Garvey, whose original band he had once seen play live. The twosome met up and subsequently recruited Uwe, Sebi and Phil. Their first gig was played on New Year's Eve 1998 in Stockach.
In order to secure a recording contract, they set up a showcase at Logo, a small club in Hamburg, in front of 16 representatives from various record labels in 1999. The band was quickly offered several contracts, settling on signing with Virgin Records Germany. As of 2006 they are now releasing their music through Universal Music.
Their best known songs are: Supergirl and Tonight(2006).
In 2011, Rea started his solo career and as of 2018, released 4 albums so far: Can't stand the silence, Pride, Prisma and Neon. Rea continues to work with national and international artists like Kool Savas, Jam & Spoon, Paul van Dyk or Mary J. Blige.
In the past, he recorded a new version of "All good things come to an end" with Nelly Furtado.
For several German movies he provided solo tracks even before Reamonn disbandoned.
He regularely appears at a coach of the German Version of "The Voice" or "The Voice Kids".
Rea married in 2002 and together with their child, they live in Berlin.
Is It Love?
Rea Garvey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A sweet, sweet smile's not an open invitation
She wants respect for all the ladders she's climbed
She doesn't want to be classified
He's a shirt and tie who's afraid of commitment
A desk jockey who had a good standard of living
Likes, laugh, love but we'll pay the price
He cleans up well and he's all so nice
Time stands still for no one
So get up off your knees
Stand still for no one
And no one's greed
Is it love, is it love, or are you just fooling around?
'Cause enough is enough, you put your head in the ground
Look up, look up, your world is crumbling down around you
Oh, wake up
Is it love, is it love, or are you just fooling around?
'Cause enough is enough, you put your head in the ground
Look up, look up, your world is crumbling down around you
Oh, wake up
She's done well for herself, her cheque's grade A
She tried love once but it just got in the way
Got the hired hands and the house on the hill
She swapped her social life for a sleeping pill
He's married now but he still goes wild
His wife's at home, expecting their third child
He said, "the perfect life is just a matter of time"
He'd know what he wants if he could make up his mind
Time stands still for no one
So get up off your knees
Stand still for no one
And no one's greed
Is it love, is it love, or are you just fooling around?
'Cause enough is enough, you put your head in the ground
Look up, look up, your world is crumbling down around you
Oh, wake up
Is it love, is it love, or are you just fooling around?
'Cause enough is enough, you put your head in the ground
Look up, look up, your world is crumbling down around you
Oh, wake up

Zurechtgerückt und orchestriert, im echten Leben
Kommt es vor, dass ich nicht immer dein Held bin, du
Hältst mir den Rücken frei und hier alles zusammen, bis ich wieder komm'
Egal, wie kompliziert, du sagst, es wird schon, dis ist unser Job
Ich halt' den Kopf raus, schieb' hier Filme, als hätt' ich nicht schon genug gechillt
Verkacke was und fuck dich ab und frag' dich, warum du nicht willst
Du sollst dich auf mich verlassen können, ich will da sein
Doch tu' als wüsst' ich nicht, dass du mich von heut auf morgen verlassen könntest
Ich hab' nie gelernt auch anzukommen, musste immer weiter rennen
Fühl' mich gleich eingegrenzt von allem, ich verlang' von dir kein Verständnis
Geb' mein Bestes, ich will nix mehr hinterfragen
Denn die Zeit, sie läuft, und vielleicht willst du nicht mehr warten, keine Ahnung
Is it love, is it love, or are you just fooling around?

The lyrics of "Is It Love?" by Rea Garvey Feat. Kool Savas are a commentary on the search for love and happiness and the choices people make in their pursuit of these things. The song tells the story of two individuals who are at different points in their lives and have different priorities but are both struggling in their search for love and fulfillment. The female character has climbed the ladder of success and wants respect and not to be objectified, while the male is afraid of commitment and is struggling to find direction in his life. Both characters have had their hearts broken in the past and are grappling with the question of whether the love they have in their lives is real or just a temporary distraction.
The chorus of the song asks the question "Is it love, or are you just fooling around?" which is a query that many people ask themselves when trying to define their relationships. The song also highlights the importance of self-reflection and taking responsibility for one's actions, as evidenced in the line "enough is enough, you put your head in the ground." Overall, "Is It Love?" is a thought-provoking song about the complexities of relationships and the human search for happiness and fulfillment.
