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.
Soñé
Zoé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
En que mi mundo se paraba
Entre tus labios
Solo para revivir
Derretirme una vez más
Mirando tus ojos negros
Y me respires para siempre
Pues no tengo nada que perder
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti
En el brillo del sol en un rincón del cielo
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti
En el eco del mar que retumba en tus ojos, soñé
Solo para revivir
Derretirme una vez más
Mirando tus ojos negros
Tengo ganas de ser aire
Y me respires para siempre
Pues no tengo nada que perder
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti
En el brillo del sol en un rincón del cielo
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti
En el eco del mar que retumba en tus ojos
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti
En el brillo del sol, una mirada tuya, soñé
Sí, te soñé
Sí, te soñé
Una vez más
Sí, te soñé
Sí, te soñé
Te soñé
Una vez más
Sí, te soñé
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti (Sí, te soñé)
En el brillo del sol en un rincón del cielo (una vez más)
Todo el tiempo estoy pensando en ti (Sí, te soñé)
En el eco del mar que retumba en tus ojos (una vez más)
The song Soñé by Zoe explores the desire to relive a moment in the past where everything seemingly stopped and the world revolved around the other person. The lyrics convey the longing to experience that feeling of being melted by the other person's black eyes and wanting to be constantly in their presence, even if it means becoming air to be breathed in by them forever. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer is constantly thinking of this person - from the glimmer of the sun in the sky to the echo of the ocean in their eyes. The repetition of "te soñé" at the end emphasizes the fact that this person is on the singer's mind continually, even in their dreams.
The use of metaphor and sensory imagery creates a dreamy, romantic feel in the song. The singer wants to be melted, to become air, and to be consumed by the other person, conveying a sense of longing and desire. The references to the elements of the sun and ocean give a sense of timelessness and vastness, further emphasizing the depth of the singer's feelings. The use of the word "soñé" (I dreamed) in the chorus of the song implies a sense of unattainability to the relationship; that this person is always in the singer's mind, but may not necessarily be present in their life.
