Maneskin are back in the spotlight, joining musically with the people of Ukraine just a few hours after Pink Floyd’s comeback in support of Ukraine. The Roman band responded to the Stand Up for Ukraine campaign launched by the Global Citizen organization by uploading a one-minute Instagram video with a new, upbeat song in support of the campaign. It is listed below:
We are going to dance on gasoline is a statement that is repeated repeatedly and is already becoming viral around the world. The frames fly by one after the other. a musical representation of a protest against the logic of price increases and global disparities on exports.
The lyrics and the meaning
Standing alone on that hill
Using your fuel to kill
We won’t take it standing still
Watch Us DanceWe’re gonna dance on gasoline
How are you sleeping at night
How do u close both ur eyes
Living with all of those lives
On your handsStanding alone on that hill
Using your fuel to kill
We won’t take it standing still
Watch Us DanceWe’re gonna dance on gasoline
Therefore, it appears like Maneskin is speaking directly to the attackers when he bitterly inquires as to how they manage to go to bed at night knowing how many lives were lost as a result of the conflict they started. The use of gasoline as a lethal weapon and the Maneskin who stand and dance on it. The lyrics’ intended meaning is consequently obvious: we won’t turn a blind eye to this war.
