"Saved by Zero" by the Fixx
Woke Up with it in My Head Song for Tuesday, November 24, 2020: “Saved by Zero” by the Fixx
The first single from the 1983 album “Reach the Beach,” the song reached number 20 in the US. Earlier in my life, I was more familiar with their next song, “One Thing Leads to Another.” Since then, I’ve come to appreciate many of their other songs which did fairly well on US rock charts.
According to Wikipedia, the song is about a reset back to zero:
"The song was written from the point of view of the release you get when you have nothing left to lose. It’s sort of a meditation. It clears your head of all fears and panics and illusions and you get back to the basics, which is a Buddhist mantra, which I practiced back then, and which I still do. The idea of the song is how great it is to get back to zero."
I wanted to post the actual video, but at this time, the only version I could find had some funky things going on with the audio.
