âThere are many ways to interpret the meaning around a song, but one theme that I relate to in Sound of Silence is that of disconnection and being away from the people in my life that I love. Dami Im has the backing of Eurovision 2014 winner Conchita Wurst and last yearâs Australian representative Guy Sebastian.
Torpor is a state of decreased physiological activity in an animal, usually by a reduced body temperature and metabolic rate. Torpor enables animals to survive periods of reduced food availability.ome animals seasonally go into long periods of inactivity, with reduced body temperature and metabolism, made up of multiple bouts of torpor. This is known as hibernation if it occurs during winter or aestivation if it occurs during the summer.
stupor A person in a stupor is considered barely conscious or stunned; or, if you consult Led Zeppelin lyrics: dazed and confused. Stupors can be brought on by drugs, alcohol, illness, or shocking news. You might doze off with a lampshade on your head if youâre in a drunken stupor. Medically speaking, a person in this state responds only to pain. You can also be in a stupor if youâre in shock, like if your boss says he's replacing you with a robot, or if Mister Ed the talking horse kicks you in the gut. Like stupid, it comes from the Latin word stupere that means basically âto be stunned.â
