1 - Sore (IPA: sɔːrɛ) is an Indonesian rock/jazz band.

Originally formed in 2000 by three childhood friends (Ade Paloh, Mondo Gascaro & Awan Garnida). In late 2001 Awan Garnida brought two other friends (Bembi Gusti & Reza Dwiputranto) and together they formed a group which they called SORE (means "late afternoon" in Indonesian). In 2004 and early 2005 they contributed two songs in a couple of compilation albums, the first was a compilation of music from Jakarta's indie scene called "JKRT: SKRG" (an abbreviation of "Jakarta, Sekarang" which translates "Jakarta, Now") released by Aksara Records. The other was an original motion picture soundtrack "Janji Joni,” also released by Aksara.

They released their full-length debut album Centralismo (Aksara Records) in the summer of 2005, which was in part became their tribute to Central Jakarta, where most of the members grew up. The music varied greatly from track to track as each member contributed lead singings and song-writings in this album.

The album received praise from all quarters. The Time Magazine Asia acknowledged “CENTRALISMO” as "One of Five Asian Albums Worth Buying", and Rolling Stone Indonesia magazine listed it 40 in "150 Greatest Indonesian Albums of All Time"

While preparing their materials for their second album, they got involved in four original soundtrack albums: "Berbagi Suami" (Love for Share); "Kala" (Dead Time); Quickie Express; "Perempuan Punya Cerita" (Chants of Lotus), one of which became a hit single, "Pergi Tanpa Pesan,” a reworking of an Indonesian classic from the late 1950's.

After working their materials for more than a year, they are back with their second album entitled Ports of Lima (Aksara Records - 2008) to great critical acclaim. The Rolling Stone Indonesia recently voted it as the Best Album of 2008.The last award went to SORE was for the "Best Alternative Music Production" (2009) by Anugrah Musik Indonesia (AMI).

No Fruits For Today
Sore Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slowly down the avenue
And the irony of liking you
What was to be some brand new shoes
Now them colour has come out pure blue

I'd love to love the sunshine thru
But love in doubt will not have two
The novelty will out last you

Comin' down the ledge will do, see it thru, me and you

I love you when you love me, and we're gonna make a big family

Driving down the afternoon
Something that can not be tuned
I'd love to make things out with you
But the flowers were too lame to move

Outside the signs were two by two
The novelty comes out to you

The Philadelphia blue lagoon
Jumpin' up and down the moon

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of SORE's "No Fruits for Today" express mixed feelings of love, doubt, and regret. The first verse talks about walking down the avenue and liking someone in an ironic way. The singer wanted to buy new shoes, but they turned into a metaphor for regret as their color turned out to be pure blue. The second verse talks about driving in the afternoon, trying to make things work with someone, but everything seems to be out of tune. The flowers were too lame to move, perhaps symbolizing the lack of passion or excitement in the relationship. The singer is aware that the novelty will outlast that person and wants to see it through together.

The lines "I'd love to love the sunshine thru But love in doubt will not have two" indicate that the singer wants to enjoy the good times together but is afraid that their doubts will eventually lead to the end. There is a sense of desperation and a desire to hold onto the person they love in the lines "I love you when you love me, and we're gonna make a big family." The song ends with an image of the Philadelphia blue lagoon and jumping up and down the moon, perhaps indicating that the singer has moved on from the relationship and is starting anew.

Line by Line Meaning

Slowly down the avenue
Moving forward through life in a gradual manner

And the irony of liking you
The contrast between my enjoyment of you and my current situation

What was to be some brand new shoes
Expectations of something new and exciting

Now them colour has come out pure blue
But reality has led to disappointment, as evidenced by the blue (sad) color

I'd love to love the sunshine thru
I wish I could enjoy the good times with you

But love in doubt will not have two
But if our love is uncertain, we won't be able to make it work

The novelty will out last you
The excitement of something new will fade over time

Comin' down the ledge will do, see it thru, me and you
We need to stick together and endure tough times in order to survive

I love you when you love me, and we're gonna make a big family
My love for you is based on reciprocity and I look forward to a future together

Driving down the afternoon
Traveling through the rest of the day

Something that can not be tuned
Something being unchangeable, despite efforts to do so
