1. XYZ, a collabo… Read Full Bio ↴At least seven bands are known under the name XYZ.
1. XYZ, a collaboration between Ian Svenonius (The Make Up, Chain & the Gang) and Memphis Electronic (Non!, Dum Dum Boys). They released a self-titled album in 2014 on Mono-Tone Records in Europe and Discord Records in the USA.
2. XYZ was a hook-laden hard rock band. They were considered the unofficial house band of the Los Angeles nightclub The Whiskey in the mid 80's, but major success eluded them. XYZ began in Los Angeles, California, with members Terry Ilous (vocals), Bobby Pieper (guitar), Patt Fontaine (bass) and Joey Pafumi (drums). An early development deal with Atlantic records led to the recording of their debut album {XYZ}, which quickly got radio play with the hits "Inside Out" and "What Keeps Me Loving You." After that false start, Ilous and Fontaine regrouped with new members Marc Diglio (guitar) and Paul Monroe (drums). Don Dokken produced the debut that included the single "Inside Out," but unfortunately few people seemed interested. The follow-up, "Hungry," did even worse commercially, and by 1992, Diglio and Monroe had been replaced by Tony Marcus and Joey Shapiro respectively. The final tour dates were performed, and the group called it a day.
Ilous went on to form Cage with former King Kobra member Jeff Northrup before recording as Flynn. Fontaine and Shapiro worked together on a band called Puzzle Gut.
Ilous and Monroe re-teamed in early 2000 (with Diglio helping to write), and with the addition of Northrup and former Quiet Riot and Great White bassist Sean McNabb, released the exceptional comeback album Letter To God in early 2003. The demos were released as "Rainy Days" in 2005.
3. XYZ also refers to a very short-lived band comprising former members of Yes and Led Zeppelin; hence, "Ex-Yes Zeppelin," or XYZ. Alan White and Chris Squire of Yes briefly teamed with Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin in 1981, and Robert Plant (also of Zeppelin) sat in on one rehearsal, but the group didn't coalesce as they'd hoped. Only a few snippets of their demo recordings survived, and no songs were released under the XYZ name.
4.XYZ is the name of producer/rapper who is part of the Nigerian-based hip hop collective str8buttah which also includes Teck-Zilla, Enigma, Prof. Deckzavier, R-Cube & Mister Rae . He released the instrumental mixtape "the black hue" in 2012.
5. A Progressive Technical Death Metal band from the Czech Republic.
6. A synth-pop band from Bangkok, Thailand
7. A group of famous japanese utaites that produces music together under the group name XYZ, the group XYZ consists of the famous Utaites: Amatsuki, Mafumafu, Kradness, Araki, un:c, nqrse, SILVANA, Senra, Meychan, Soraru, Gero, Shoose, Luz and Kool. Although not every single utaite participates in every music the group makes.
Lonely Without You
XYZ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a story I know by heart
It's cold your loving is gone
I'm gonna try not to take it hard
You call to say you're alright
Tell me what are you trying to hide?
Goodbye you hang up the line
But it s alright
I believe I feel your heat inside
I believe I want your love tonight
Sorry but I'm lonely without you
I don't know what to do
I wanna get over you
Sorry but I'm lonely without you
I don't know what to do
Living is loving you
It's dawn I turn off the lights
I've been dreaming of you thru the night
But it's time to go back to the world
I very got to cut loose your ties
I believe I want your love tonight
I'm afraid I feel your heat inside
Sorry but I'm lonely without you
I don't know what to do
I wanna get over you
Sorry but I'm lonely without you
I don't know what to do
Living is loving you
Where did we go wrong?
And I dream of yesterday
I read love in your eyes
Now I scream your name away
Blind in the night
The lyrics to "Lonely Without You" by XYZ are about the pain of being separated from a loved one. The singer is experiencing a sense of loss and isolation due to the absence of the other person. They know the story by heart, possibly referring to past experiences where they have been in a similar situation before. With their love gone, they feel cold and lonely.
The song goes on to describe the mixed feelings the singer has towards the other person. They receive a call from them and question what is being hidden from them. In the next line, the person hangs up, and the singer misses their lies for a second. This highlights the tumultuous nature of their relationship – the love, the lies, and the hurt that they feel.
The chorus conveys the desperation the singer feels to be with their loved one again. They believe that they still feel their love even though they aren't present. They're struggling to get over them and can't imagine living without them. The lyrics are a window into the singer's mind, portraying the emotions that arise when forced to be apart from someone they love deeply.
