Nostalgia
Shahin Sepehr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De fin de siglo
Y se vuelven a oír las rolas
De los beatles
De elvis
De yanis
De jendrix
De morrison
Y es que es la nostalgia
De fin de siglo
Y todo el mundo quisiera el tiempo poder regresar
Y revivir los recuerdos
Y los buenos tiempos
Porque recordar es vivir
Y todos queremos vivir mas
Es la nostalgia
De fin de siglo
Se vuelve a poner de moda la ideología
Del che guevara
Y todos quieren ser rebeldes
Y contestar
Anarquistas
Y revolucionarios
Es la nostalgia
De fin de siglo
Y los hijos se rebelan contra los padres
Como los padres lo hicieron con los abuelos
Con la misma actitud
Las mismas fachas
Las mismas causas
Y hasta la misma música
The lyrics to Shahin Sepehr's song "Nostalgia" describe a longing for the past, specifically the end of the century. The song talks about how people are listening to music from icons such as The Beatles, Elvis, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Morrison, and Lennon. It appears that everyone wishes they could go back in time to relive their memories and good times, because remembering is living and everyone wants to live more. The lyrics also mention the 1960's nostalgia aesthetic with the resurgence of Che Guevara's ideology and the desire for rebels, anarchists, and revolutionaries. The song touches on the generational gap between parents and their children, with the latter rebelling against the former in the same way that the parents had once rebelled against their own parents in their youth. The children have the same attitude, clothes, and causes as their parents once did.
The song performs a great job of detailing the feelings of nostalgia by looking back at the music of the past, the rebellions of previous eras. It accurately captures the sense of longing that we sometimes experience for a period that we either lived through or missed. The song evokes a sense of nostalgia, a longing for the areas of the past when life was simpler. That's something that everyone can relate to.
