Song Meaning of “Le machin” by Seth Gueko
“Le Machin” by Seth Gueko questions the meaning of life in this world. Through his clever wordplay and punchlines, Gueko paints a vivid picture of an empty and meaningless world. He reflects on the struggles of life and how difficult it is to stay motivated when there seems to be no reward at the end. He speaks of his powerlessness to escape this cycle of emptiness and nothingness that he is surrounded by. He believes that nothing good will come from it and that all things are transitory and empty. With an intense delivery, he conveys his frustration and dismay with the futility of life. Gueko ultimately finds some good in the chaos, and finds solace in knowing he will always have his music. He reminds himself to never give up and to keep striving for greatness, despite the seemingly hopelessness of life.
