1) A Mexican rock band, that's not not afraid of experimenting, with a modern sound, an eclectic style, some British influences & overall, their music's sophisticated without loss of rock energy. Their lyrics cover many subjects / feelings, with the same level of sophistication that their music shows, plus honesty. They usually write songs in Spanish, sometimes in English or a combination of both languages.
They began as a band in 1994; as time went by, the band changed members several times until the definite lineup stuck in 1997 with León Larregui (vocals and guitar), Sergio Acosta (guitar), Beto Cabrera (drums), Ángel Mosqueda (bass) and Chucho Báez (keyboards). Then the band made a demo and many gigs on their own with the little resources that they had; with all that, Zoé began to call the attention of the hispanic radio stations in the U.S. Later in 1998, Zoé signed a record deal with Sony Music Mexico and began making their first record in 2000; this album, self titled, came out and quickly became a favorite of the audience in Mexico; after that, the band performed songs in soundracks of movies such as 'Amar Te Duele', 'Ladies Night' and 'The Dreamer'.
Fast forward to 2003. Zoé, along with producer Phil Vinall (Placebo, Elastica, Pulp), recorded their second album called 'Rocanlover', which became more successful than the first one thanks to hit songs like 'Peace & Love' and 'Veneno', which aired in several TV countdowns.
In 2005, after three years of working together, Zoé left Sony Music because of the lack of real interest that this record label had in them and signed a new deal with Noiselab; with a newfound belief in record labels, Zoé made an EP called 'The Room', which debuted at the top of the rankings in Mexico. This EP includes, among others, the song 'Dead' (first single); also,are including "She Comes" and "Morning Watts" as new songs and also some remixes of "Dead" by great electronic artists from Mexico such as Sonido Lasser Drakkar or Los Dynamite, plus a couple of videos.
On July 12th, 2006; Zoé (now wih Rodrigo Guardiola in the drums) presented their more recent production, "Memo Rex Commander y el Corazón atómico de la Vía Láctea", a sophisticate, layered production, which tops several magazines' rankings. Both Zoé and producer Phil Vinall worked very hard in Tornillo, Texas, a remote town in the desert, to get "Memo Rex" finished.
In fall 2006, Zoé headlined the Rockampeonato Tour, along with other Noiselab signees like Los Dynamite and Los Odio!, which held shows at cities like Mérida, Guadalajara and many others. This is the biggest tour Zoé has been a part of since they were formed.
In 2007 Zoé recorded "281107", a live album that celebrates their first 10 years as a band, it was recorded on the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, this recording went platinum pretty quickly which is something unusual for live recordings in Mexico. On November 11th 2008 "Repileptric" Zoé's seventh studio album was released.
2) An alias of Zoë Pollock (b. in Peckham, London, UK - aka Zoë, Zoe, Hepzibah Broom & Pollack), is a pop / rock / folk singer who began her career in the mid-80s, dated Martin Glover (aka Youth, who produced her early work), released three solo albums (two as Zoë, another as Hepzibah Broom) & several singles. She is now a member of Mama.
Her 1991 début, Scarlet Red And Blue (originally, released as Zoë's Scarlet Red And Blue), contained Sunshine On A Rainy Day & "Lightning" (aka Sunshine On A Rainy Day & Lightning, with 'Zoe' spelling), which have been her biggest hits, to date (peaking at #4 & #37, respectively - on the UK chart).
In 1996, Zoë re-emerged - still with M & G Records & bringing a revamped image / style / sound - releasing an americana-styled rock album, Hammer.
Re-emerging again, around 2008, she has released Hepzibah Broom (as Hephzibah Broom) & formed female folk duo 'Mama' (with singer Sarah McQuaid - their début release is Crow Coyote Buffalo).
3) A French-speaking variétés françaises singer, whose tune "Je Porte Un Toast" sounds like a cross between Françoise Hardy & Lamb.
No Hay Mal Que Dure
Zoé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sientes demasiado
Percibes la lluvia
Pero antes de que caiga
Si alguien te molesta
Por ser diferente
Dales paciencia
Tus alas al viento
Salpicando calma
Te nutres de letras
Y de fotografías
En un océano de primigenio
Cariño, grabo tu nombre
Reconozco la oscuridad
De mi alma y me hago más sabio
La música clásica
Te aplaca las penas
Exhalas demencia
Y tratas de no juzgar
En un océano de primigenio
Cariño, grabo tu nombre
Reconozco la oscuridad
De mi alma y me hago más sabio
No hay mal que dure más de 100 años, oh-ooh-oh
Decía mi madre
No hay mal que dure más de 100 años, oh-ooh-oh
Decía mi madre
No hay mal que dure más de 100 años, oh-ooh-oh
Decía mi madre
No hay mal que dure más de 100 años, oh-ooh-oh

"Oh", decía mi madre
"Oh", decía mi madre
Pri Chinga tu madre
The lyrics to Zoé's song No Hay Mal Que Dure are filled with messages of hope, encouragement, and empathy. The first stanza talks about feeling deeply, perceiving things before they happen, and dealing with people who find differences difficult to tolerate. The second stanza talks about finding solace in music and art, especially classical music that soothes the soul, and avoiding judgement of others. The chorus is a repeated affirmation that there is no problem that lasts forever, which the singer's mother used to say. The song ends with the repeated "Oh" utterance of the singer's mother, perhaps conveying a sense of respect or reverence for her wisdom.
In essence, the song is about coping with the ups and downs of life, and how important it is to find beauty and meaning in the world even when things seem difficult. The singer is empathetic towards those who find it hard to fit in, while encouraging listeners to be patient with them, and to find solace in creative pursuits that nourish the soul. The chorus repeats the message that everything will be fine eventually, urging listeners to remain positive and hopeful even in the darkest of situations.

El problema es que el rock si esta muriendo, el boom de los géneros como el reggaeton y demás géneros, si por que no decirlo basura, esta sepultando al rock y eso incluye en menor medida al pop, pero eso es otra historia. Sostengo que son géneros basura en el sentido de que si bien algunos interpretes si cantan, que sería el máximo grado de complejidad, no se puede negar que el contenido de la letra, la forma en la que esta construida la música y las mismas canciones en su mayoría carecen de contenido y de complejidad, sin embargo, esa misma facilidad ha hecho que sea un negocio jugoso para la industria, mientras que los grupos de música con mayor grado de complejidad desaparecen paulatinamente...
