No és nou

Gossos' song 'No és nou' delves into the timeless struggle for change and the disillusionment with the current state of society. The lyrics reflect a yearning for a different world, one where collective action and unity can bring about significant transformation. The opening lines, 'Van ser dies de gloria, vam fer nostre el carrer,' evoke a sense of nostalgia for past moments of glory and unity, where people took to the streets to make their voices heard. This sets the stage for the song's central theme: the desire to wake up to a better world and the frustration with the status quo.

The chorus, 'No és nou, deixa enrere els teus sentiments, perduts ens guanyen la partida,' emphasizes that the struggle for change is not a new phenomenon. It suggests that in order to win the 'game,' one must let go of lost sentiments and focus on the present challenges. This metaphorical 'game' represents the ongoing battle against societal issues and the need for a different approach to achieve meaningful change. The repetition of this chorus reinforces the idea that the fight for a better world is a continuous and enduring effort.

The song also touches on themes of lost honor and the prevalence of lies, as seen in the lines 'Em perdut les maneres, què n´hem fet de l´honor, passegem les mentides com si fossin tresors.' This critique of societal values highlights the disillusionment with the current state of affairs and the need for a return to integrity and truth. The call to action is clear: to not wait for change but to actively seek it, as expressed in 'Quan et cremes, tu no esperes, fas un bon salt i crides.' This sense of urgency and the recognition that some things cannot wait encapsulate the song's powerful message of striving for a better world.
