Cover art for Cricket Song - Cricket Is On lyrics by Add

The song "Cricket song - cricket is on" is a humanitarian song in the guise of a sports song. The metaphor "gladiator" suggests the cruelty the planet used to show where one fighter had to kill another fighter to entertain the spectators. But now we are civilized enough not have to kill a human being to entertain the people. Playing fair is enough to be a hero.

The songwriter is optimistic of driving away all the evils in forms of feuds, wrangles and disputes with the cricket storm. There is of course an allusion of the present world crisis posed by all the wars including Russia - Ukraine and Israel - Palestine conflicts. The songwriter hails love and peace to solve all the problems in a humanitarian way.

The sports-commentary-like shout in the middle of the song is a snub at the war mongers who are no more heroes in the eyes of global citizens who now are ready to praise a sports hero, not an inhuman gladiator or any group or country who terrorize our beloved planet.

The songwriter inspires the spunk of a person to be shown in the sports field, rather than in an inhuman battle ground. He is waiting for a hero to write a new music, to show the world a new hope of living together in peace and harmony. He is inviting one among the powerful leaders of the present world to come up with a new song, shattering the evil idea of killing each other, to gift a peaceful world to the generations yet to come.
