"Analog Man" is a song by American musician Joe Walsh, released on his 2012 solo album of the same name. The song is a commentary on modern technology and how it has affected society. Walsh expresses his frustration with the reliance on digital technology and how it has caused him to feel like an outsider in an increasingly digital world. In the song, Walsh describes how he feels lost in the fog of cyberspace and cannot keep up with the constantly evolving technology. He feels like an analog man in a digital world, and longs for the simplicity of the past. Walsh references vinyl records as an example of something he still prefers in an increasingly digital age. The song also touches on the impact of media on society. He notes how television is full of commercials and how programs with violence and murder are rated PG. These themes tie into the idea that technology is not always the harmless and perfect solution that it is often portrayed as. Overall, "Analog Man" is a commentary on the impact of technology and how it can make individuals feel disconnected from the world around them. By embracing analog technologies and rejecting the constant need for digital upgrades, Walsh suggests that individuals can reconnect with their true selves and find a sense of simplicity and authenticity that is often lost in the digital age.
