Whilst the music is upbeat, the inclusion of Cello and Trumpet give it a dynamic quality that grabs listeners' attention, from the first to the last note played.
The distinct influences of Maroon 5 and Jack Johnson's strong song writing, crossed with the upbeat rhythms and diverse arrangements of Jamiroquai, has created a strong belief accross the music industry that they will be the next big thing...

Try Again
Two Spot Gobi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ending up in the fray so often taught me to breathe deep
I've been on top of a cloud and how we danced in the spotlight
People told us to change just when we thought it was our right
So come away, away oh come on away, away
Come away, away oh come on away, away...
Let's try again
Let's try again
And know the promises that we've been made are always kept
Let's try again
Let's try again
O-whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
They told us we were the ones and they would take us the whole way
And we believed every word that was said and we found out the hard way
So start all over again from when we found it was all lies
There's nothing that you can say to replace all the dreams that're in my mind
So come away, away oh come on away, away
Come away, away oh come on away, away...
Let's try again
And know the problems that have been before may never come
Let's try again
And know the promises that we've been made are always kept
Let's try again
Let's try again
O-whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
When I come back to see you will not know my face
When I come back around you all will know my name
When I come back to see you will not know my face
When I come back around you all will know my name
(When I come back around you all will know-oh)
When I come back, come back around
When I come back, come back around
When I come back, come back around
When I come back, come back around
When I come back, come back around
When I come back, come back around
Let's try again
And know the problems that have been before may never come
Let's try again
And know the promises that we've been made are always kept
Let's try again
Let's try again
O-whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Let's try again (Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Let's try again (Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Let's try again (Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Let's try again (Whoahoh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Let's try again
The song "Try Again" by Two Spot Gobi is a reflection of a past experience of the band where they thought that success was easily attainable. However, as they journeyed through life and music, they found out that it was not an easy feat. The first stanza talks about coming out of a whirlwind and accepting that life is not easy. They have learned to face the challenges and breathe deeply. They have also enjoyed success and danced in the spotlight, but they were also criticized and prompted to change their values. The chorus suggests starting all over again and trying one more time. They acknowledge that the problems that come with their struggles may never stop, but they are willing to face them. They also trust that the promises made to them will always be kept. The repetition of "Let's try again" reinforces the idea of moving forward and not giving up.
The second stanza is a reflection of a situation where the band was promised an easy path to success only to find out that it was a lie. They have to start over again and adjust their expectations. They have dreams in mind that cannot be easily swept away by words. The chorus then follows with the same message of trying again despite the challenges. The final part talks about a future return where the band will be known and recognized.
Overall, "Try Again" is a song about resilience and perseverance. The band has experienced the highs and lows of the music industry and the challenges that come with it. They acknowledge that there will be obstacles along the way, but they choose to keep going.
