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.
Panoramas
Zoé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No pierdas el tiempo, salte de la ciudad
Respira profundo mi amor
Que no hay nada mejor que llenarse de paz
Deja las viejas ideas
Caducas y tiesas
Necesitabas silencio pa' escuchar
Me gusta la velocidad de la felicidad
Que tus besos me dan
Me gustan tus tetas al sol
Redondas, mirándome, llenas de sudor
Me gusta lamberte la cara
Comerte en la playa
Y el sonido de
Tus gritos de pasión
Panormas de placer
Perspectivas de amplitud
Siempre que regreso
Entiendo por qué sigo allá
Regresa, naturaleza
No pierdas el tiempo, salte de la ciudad
Respira profundo mi amor
Que no hay nada mejor que llenarse de paz
Deja las viejas ideas
Caducas y tiesas
Necesito silencio pa' escuchar
Panormas de placer
Perspectivas de amplitud
Siempre que regreso
Entiendo por qué vivo allá
The lyrics of Zoé's "Panoramas" are an ode to the beauty and simplicity of nature, as well as a call to return to it in order to find peace and happiness. The song begins with the singer urging the listener to return to nature and leave behind the hustle and bustle of the city. He suggests taking a deep breath of fresh air and filling oneself with the serenity that nature provides. The lyrics then move on to describe the singer's favorite things about being with the person he loves, such as the speed of happiness that comes with their kisses, the beauty of her body in the sun, and the sound of her screams of passion.
The chorus of the song follows the same theme, describing the pleasure and perspective that nature provides. The panoramas of pleasure and the broad perspectives of nature are what keeps the singer coming back, time and time again. He urges the listener to do the same, to return to nature and find the beauty and simplicity that it offers. The song ends with another call to nature, and a plea for silence, so that one may truly listen and appreciate what it has to offer.

sin duda la mejor banda del mundo, este nuevo disco es... simplemente inexplicable, evoca emociones como todos los que han estado antes, sus canciones se impregnan de circuitos en la memoria que nos hacen recordar e imaginar, son procesos creativos tan profundos y tan expansivos que rozan el borde del infinito que aun no conocemos... Gracias, desde Venezuela... por una vida llena de "panoramas" a todos sus integrantes y equipo de trabajo!!! desde la fuente con ustedes... hacia la misma todos juntos...
