Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Slim Fatboy's song "Right Here Right Now" are minimalistic yet impactful. The repetitive lines "Right here, right now" seem to emphasize being wholly present in the moment, which is juxtaposed with the lyrics "Waking up to find your love's not real." These lines suggest that the singer has woken up to the realization that the love they believed to be true is no longer genuine. This could be interpreted as a call to live fully in the present moment, as reality can change quickly, and what may seem real one moment may no longer be true the next.


The repetition of the phrase "Waking up to find your love's not real" creates a sense of unease and urgency in the song's tone. The singer seems to be grappling with the reality that their love has changed or disappeared, and they are struggling to come to terms with it. The repetition of the phrase can also be interpreted as a form of introspection, a moment of self-reflection for the singer.


In summary, "Right Here Right Now" is a song that focuses on the importance of being present in the moment and the realization that reality can change quickly. The song suggests that we must pay attention to the present and be mindful of the relationships we have, as they can change unexpectedly.

@peanutts1252

Very sorry to hear that. Only sending comment because its that time of year for me. I lost 2 sisters, then a nephew. My Father simply because of age...but then I saw how my 2 older brothers were so distraught. I tried to help but after 30 days in rehab.....my brother shot hisself only days after I left to look after my own house/cats, friend....sister.

I friggen called for a Well Check because he wouldn't respond. I was in the Mental Health industry & that's what I was taught.....also talked to him about it.

Nevertheless, 6 years later.......therapy, hours and hours of music......I can stuff it down as far as I can. Everybody says not my fault........but it is. It is.


Maybe he was prepared to do so. Evidence he was. He wanted to die clean of opioids & he was.


Catch 22. I sent police to his house "Well Check" & he was alive they say.

Next day he my other brother arrived......


Sorry for the share, but your share broke me open.

Back to video......Have loved this song/video for decades.

Note to self on 24th May 2023:

No way, this is the video I watched so many years ago as a kid when I moved to Dubai!

This used to play on MTV, and this was around the time when I was exposed to Eminem's music as well - I remember watching that iconic 'Without Me' music video.

The craziest thing is I'd always associated this tune with Jurassic Park - or it somehow related to evolution - but the connection was always subliminal (and in my head).

Of course I'd heard this tune several times over the years but I could never piece why it sounded so familiar, until I looked up the music video just now.

Ah, life is incredible! This tune is evergreen.
