Then when you let it
You asked for nothing
Why don't you share it?
All of the time you live
There's something out there
This one will know how far to live on
This one won't ever know in this town
And in the red room at a distance
How would you know it?
You're the same when you're living
I don't know it, it won't be this
This one will know how far to live on
This one will know how far to live on
All of the time you wait, there's someone out there
And no one can find all the red
How would you show it?
You can see through the red
How I know it, it won't be this time
This one will know how far to live on
This one will know how far to live on
You asked for nothing
Why don't you share it?
All of the time you live
There's something out there
This one will know how far to live on
This one won't ever know in this town
And in the red room at a distance
How would you know it?
You're the same when you're living
I don't know it, it won't be this
This one will know how far to live on
This one will know how far to live on
All of the time you wait, there's someone out there
And no one can find all the red
How would you show it?
You can see through the red
How I know it, it won't be this time
This one will know how far to live on
This one will know how far to live on

Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
this song has the sweetest bassline in the history of bass guitar
hell yeah it does.
those lyrics are totally fucking wrong. they're cryptic because they make no sense grammatically.
i love this song even if it reminds me of the person i fell in love with that im not with anymore... how we were pulling out of a gas station, how this song was playing in his radio and how he looked over at me and clapped along with this song, to make me smile.
Follow-up: The repetitive claps in the song might possibly involve the theme of 'synchronization' (people clapping hands together) -- continuous attempts by this guy/girl to 'synchronize' the real personality of his/her ex and the emulated personality of the 'persona'. Such attempts at synchronization could partly comprise the effort of extrapolating this 'persona' of his/her ex from past memories of him/her, as well as the effort of integrating the 'persona' into new personal experiences. These efforts could ensure the survival of the 'persona' as a semi-living entity rather than a dead (inanimate) memory.
The monotony and precise rhythm of the clapping could (but I am not sure) possibly be a depiction of the synthetic/mechanical/unnatural nature of these attempts to create a semi-living thing (the 'persona') from past (semi-dead) memories of the ex-boyfriend/girlfriend.
The song title itself, "stars and sons", might be a reference to the above idea of 'creation', which is similar to the creation of stars from disparate matter, or the creation of children from disparate biological matter.
The fluid and wave-like 'in-out' melody of the bass line might be a reference to intercourse and procreation. Interestingly, the song seems to refer not just to actual intercourse and procreation, but seems to extrapolate these processes onto psychology (intermixing/conjoining of ideological substances/artifacts; creation of personas). Thus, it seems to mirror the necessity of physiological and cosmological sexuality (involving the physical body and the physical matter of stellar material) with a similar level of necessity for metaphysical and psychological sexuality (involving the mind, vis the creation of the hypothetical 'persona' from the raw material of information/memories/thoughts/feelings).
I don't know why no one has commented on this. I hope you are still active on here. This is the most amazing and in depth analysis I have read. I hope you have written more. I feel like a stuttering fan coming face to face with a celebrity trying to reply to this. You truly have an uncanny ability to dissect every element of a song. I am just in awe. Thank you for your contribution.
This is the most, or one of the most, ridiculous things I have ever read.
Well, BSS is my favorite band and I've listened to them and this song hundreds of times and I always felt the explanation was simple~ You don't know where life is taking you or where you're supposed to go. You always wonder if the right person has already come and gone out of your life or if they're the next one you meet. Red is passion, sin, life, action, excitement. You feel like it hasn't happened, but the road to it is in fact the red room all along and the people you meet and love don't have the answer, you do.
Basically: Life is not an equation or problem to be figured out. Life is a confusing journey full of realizations and changes. Nothing is definite except death (and that is unpredictable)
This song makes me want to clap.... I Like it! I'm not sure what the meaning of it is, yet. Something about seeing the red; Very metaphoric, and a feeling unknown.
i agree the bassline is very addictive. this is the song that turned me on to broken social scene. its great. i especially like the vocals on this song.
i don't think people are supposed to figure out this song, it's very vague.
You're damn right, this has to be the sweetest bassline ever. this is a song about life and is very accordingly vague, just like life is. One of the greatest songs I've ever heard.
the clapping is the coolest thing in the world
This song, Oh God, it's one of the best songs i've heard in my life , the base line is sooo damn catchy! and that solo is crazy i've never heard anything like it ... almost crimes is another good song from BSS. i can totally interpret this song with my relationship, specially the first verse, but that's just me!
