1. In the early days of British psychedelia, three bands were consistently cited as first-generation figureheads of the London-based underground sound: Pink Floyd, the Soft Machine, and Tomorrow. Pink Floyd became superstars and the Soft Machine influential cult legends, but Tomorrow is mostly remembered (if at all) for featuring Steve Howe as their lead guitarist in his pre-Yes days. Actually, Tomorrow was nearly the equal of the two more celebrated outfits. Along with the early Floyd and Soft Machine, they shared a propensity for flower-power whimsy. Though they were less recklessly innovative and imaginative, their songwriting was accomplished, with adroit harmonies, psychedelic guitar work, and adventurous structures and tempo changes. They never succumbed to mindless indulgence or jamming; indeed, their tracks were rather short and tightly woven in comparison with most psychedelic bands.

Band members were Steve Howe (electric and acoustic guitars), Keith West (vocals), John "Junior" Wood (bass guitar) and John 'Twink' Alder (drums). Tomorrow singer Keith West is perhaps better known as a participant in Mark Wirtz's Teenage Opera project that gave him a solo hit single "Excerpt from a Teenage Opera (Grocer Jack)" and brief commercial success. Guitarist Steve Howe later joined progressive rock band Yes and then Asia, whilst Twink joined The Pretty Things on their concept album, S.F. Sorrow, before forming The Pink Fairies.

Tomorrow are credited with releasing the first psychedelic single, 'My White Bicycle'. Tomorrow's September 1967 single "Revolution" was likely the primary inspiration for the John Lennon song Revolution which was released a year later.[citation needed] Tomorrow's lyric "Have your own little revolution, NOW!" sounds like it prompted Lennon's response "You say you want a revolution." Though Tomorrow's song was not a hit the group was well known to insiders of the London music scene. Frank Zappa met the group on his first trip to England in 1967 and praised Steve Howe's guitar solo on Claramount Lake. Zappa even played the record during a radio interview many years later.

2. Tomorrow was an emo/post-punk band from Tampa, FL, active from 1994 to 1999.

Tomorrow released a Self-Titled 7" (1995, Blacksmith), a split 7" with Exhaust (1995, Blacksmith), a split 11" with Hot Water Music (1997, No Idea) and two CD EPs; The Industry Of Natural Occurence (1998, No Idea) and Build a Brand New Sky (1999, Schematics).

They also appeared on several compilations; Direction CD (1996, Polivinyl), 403 Comp: Florida Fucking Hardcore (1998, Schematics), and Back to Donut! (1999, No Idea).

3. Tomorrow may also refer to a Japanese thrash metal band. Taking queues from the Italian metal scene, the members of Tomorrow embrace not only the Italian's fast, over-driven sound but also the language itself.

4. 90's influenced newschool hardcore from Ukraine in the vein of Mean Season, Ressurection, 108, Skygrain, Inside Out. http://tomorrowxxx.bandcamp.com/track/candles-light

5. Traditional doom metal band from Toledo, Ohio that was active in the late 90s. Recorded the EP "Divinatory Mourning".

Tomorrow Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know who loves me
And I don't care 어차피 낭비
설렘 따위
좀 겁이 나니까

달콤 쌉쌀한 chocolate
끝 맛은 항상 같지
Like saddest movies

눈가엔 눈물만

난 알아
달콤한 love song
맹세의 그 말도
돌아서면 결국
낯선 그 someone

Sorry, I'm an anti-romantic
달아나고 싶어 저 멀리
이미 널 쫓는 내 마음이
작은 불씨로 타올라

Sorry I'm an anti-romantic
더는 믿지 않아 romantic
내 맘 전부를 다 불사르고
까만 재만 남게 될까 두려워

Lalalila lalalila lalalila, oh oh, oh oh

I know that you love me
또 취하게 해 깊이
넌 마치 champagne
이럼 안되는데

다 보이잖아 끝이
숙취보다 지독히
힘들 거잖아
자, 이쯤에서 끝내

So stupid
달콤한 love song
사치스러운 rom com
행복했던 만큼
계산서엔 red line

Sorry, I'm an anti-romantic
달아나고 싶어 저 멀리
이미 널 쫓는 내 마음이
작은 불씨로 타올라

Sorry, I'm an anti-romantic
더는 믿지 않아 romantic
내 맘 전부를 다 불사르고
까만 재만 남게 될까 두려워

Lalalila lalalila lalalila, oh oh, oh oh

Sorry, I'm an anti-romantic
달아나고 싶어 저 멀리
이미 널 쫓는 내 마음이

Sorry, I'm an anti-romantic
더는 믿지 않아 romantic
내 맘 전부를 다 불사르고
까만 재만 남게 될까 두려워

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of TOMORROW X TOGETHER's song "ANTI-ROMANTIC" depict the struggles of an individual who has lost faith in love and relationships. The song's narrator admits that they don't know who loves them and don't care because it is a waste of time. They find the idea of being smitten nerve-wracking and prefers to distance themselves from it. The individual describes love as a bittersweet experience, just like the taste of chocolate. They relate their perception of love and romance to that of a sad movie that only leaves tears in their eyes.

As the song continues, the singer acknowledges that the person they are with loves them deeply, but it makes them feel trapped. They compare the feeling of being in love to that of being intoxicated with champagne, which is a temporary feeling. The singer doesn't want to be happy only to end up with a broken heart. They do not want to be a part of a romantic atmosphere that will leave them with nothing but ashes.

The chorus of the song, with lines like "Sorry I'm an anti-romantic," and "I'm afraid I'll burn up my entire heart," conveys the underlying theme of failed relationships and loveless experiences. The song portrays a gloomy take on love and relationships.
