Make A Sound
The Grits Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Doesn’t matter what sound it is as long as you make it loud
Hey, make a sound
Doesn’t matter what sound it is as long as it sounds like James Brown
Huh Awww Huh Huh
Huh (Huh)
Awww (Awww)
Huh Huh (Huh Huh) Awww (Awww)
The Grit's song Make A Sound appears to be a call to action for its listeners to express themselves fearlessly and uninhibitedly. The lyrics urge individuals to make noise, regardless of the sound, as long as it's loud and resembles James Brown. James Brown was a famous musician known for his energy, distinct sound, and commanding presence on stage. It, therefore, appears that the song is also a nod to his influence and the inspiration that he evokes.
The repetition of the phrase 'Hey, make a sound' and the inclusion of sound effects such as 'Huh, Awww' create a chant that encourages the audience to participate. The song adopts a lively tempo and rhythm that matches the upbeat nature of the message. The entire composition seems to be a celebration of music and the freedom that it brings.
