The song means, the message it is trying to convey is this: - the lonely person thinks he is alone in this world, and in desperation and resolve he tries to reach out to another by "sending an S.O.S to the world". He hopes someone will answer. The next day when he wakes up, he sees - "100 billion bottles washed up on the shore." The realization that there are so many others like him is a major revelation! Surely this brings an end to his suffering and lonliness.

Does this help?
The song is about a castaway on an island, who sends out a message in a bottle to seek help. A year later, he feels that there is no need for love. Later on, he sees "a hundred billion bottles" on the shore, finding out that there are more people like him out there.
The song could also be understood to be dealing with isolation and loneliness caused by the loss of a loved one ("love can break your heart"): he seeks help but gets no reply, then realizes that there are many more people out there like him, suggesting that everyone has to deal with loss and loneliness as part of the human experience.
"Message in a Bottle" was The Police's first number one hit single in the United Kingdom, but only reached number 74 in the United States.

He's feeling isolated in the world, looking to make a connection. He ultimately realizes he's not the only one feeling this sense of isolation - nearly everyone is
(Woke up this morning/dont believe what I saw/100 million bottles/washed up on the shore/seems I'm not alone in feeling alone/100 million castaways looking for a home)

I think it's about looking for, and finding love. He sings about being lonely, "a castaway lost at sea". So he send an SOS to the world, searching for love, hoping to receive a sign from someone who is lonely, too.

a million. "Smoke on the Water". mythical riff, to boot as a super solo. 2. "highway celeb". solid riff, advantageous enjoying by Jon Lord and Ritchie Blackmore. 3. "female From Tokyo". only those days chanced on it and it has already exchange right into a commonly used! 4. "Lazy". only like it. 5. "infant in Time". Ian Gillan shines in this one. i like Deep pink simply by fact they have some very proficient individuals specially. Few human beings can adventure Ian Gillan in vocals, Ritchie Blackmore is likely considered one of the final guitarists of all time, Ian Paice has some awesome drumming, and it is stunning to pay attention how nicely Jon Lord's organ enjoying suits right into a tough rock/heavy metallic band. Roger Glover is surprisingly solid, yet i does not call him the final or something. combine and you get a super band. i could anticipate some band who would be unable to artwork nicely jointly, yet Deep pink grew to become into super at making songs jointly. renowned album is device Head, which has 3 of my precise 5 renowned songs in it.
