Dom Locater Yes it is the literal meaning of a tame impala. It kind of describes a mystical magical experience / encounter with a beast in the wild that doesn't appear to be afraid, sort of like meeting a very sentient being and feeling totally astonished for a fleeting moment in time. The way I imagine it, is kind of like, you are in the wilderness, and then suddenly you come across an impala which is communicating with you telepathically like something from the Ghibli film 'Princess Mononoke'. haha. There is some video on youtube where Kevin explains the meaning of the name in more depth. I hope you find it. :)
My impala used to be wild, it would run over homeless people and never stopped at stop signs. But then i tamed it. So my friend named their band after what happened, so that's how they got their name. In case you were wondering...
This is the shit.meaning excellent..we always have to get music from other countries. Australia and the UK make the US look like shit...We are slow and should learn from them..I'm from the East Coast and danced off of European music all my life but didn't know it because you can't hear the accents until the singer speaks....Not that it matters, but I'm a black woman who like house and my son turned me onto this band...
