(Continue)

Talk to me, talk to me
If you want to know the things we see
Then step inside our skins
The white room, the white room
We spin, we turn, watch and wait
As the world just creeps on by
The white room, the white room
Ooohhaaa

Talk to me, talk to me
Far below, a small boat sails
Catching fish from the sea
The white room, the white room
We climb the mountain, feel the wind
We climbed to touch the stars
The white room, the white room
Ooohhaaa

The white room, the white room

The white room, the white room
The white room, the white room





The white room, the white room

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The KLF's song "The White Room" are quite enigmatic and poetic in nature. The repeated refrain of "Spanna noo na noo na ne na naho" and "Spa noo na naho" seems to be nonsensical and perhaps serves as a sort of mantra for the song. However, the verses provide more concrete imagery and an invitation to join in on an experience.


The singer of the song suggests that if you want to know what they see, then you must step inside their skin and enter the white room. This could be interpreted as an invitation to open oneself up to new experiences and perspectives. The white room could represent a blank canvas or a place where anything is possible.


The lyrics also paint vivid pictures of climbing mountains and touching the stars, as well as observing a small boat sailing in the sea. These images suggest a search for knowledge and understanding, as well as a reverence for the natural world. The repetition of the phrase "The white room" at the end of the song reinforces the idea of a limitless, open space.


Overall, the lyrics to "The White Room" are somewhat cryptic and open to interpretation, but they seem to evoke a sense of wonder and possibility.

I feel so utterly lucky to have lived the KLF era, when they were hugely popular! What an amazing time to be 18, 19, 20 and a musicophile. I treasure my KLF 12 and 7 inches singles which I bought back then! 🙏

@adrock6021

I love u, already

@FFM0594

Older guy here. Never forget KLF was born out of a punk rocker's mind. Old punks love all things Acid/Techno, too.

@Philtho

Yeah, they were always something special. You had all those other great bands of the time like Prodigy, Orb, etc but this album will always be a special gem that defies time.
