Just give me a reason, some kind of sign
I'll need a miracle to help me this time
I heard what you said and I feel the same
I know in my heart that I'll have to change

Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

How did we get to be this far apart?
How did we get to be this far apart?
I want to be with you, have something to share
I want to be here but I'm not there

Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

Even the stars look brighter tonight
Nothing's impossible
And if you believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

I still believe in love at first sight
Nothing's impossible

    I love the sheer apathy in the music and delivery in a song that is so very upbeat and happy sounding. The vocals contradict the lyrics on every level, which makes this one of my favorite songs. I wouldn't have been able to tell DG wrote this if I didn't know. It's so enlightened, something moves him enough to be optomistic, and want to change. The want to change is very passionate... and yet, there're the vocals. Ugh, amazing.

    hey Placebist, of course you can't compare David's writing to Martin. Martin's been writing for decades. He's a Master (bator) ha. Anyway just give David a chance, I'm sure he'll get better with time. The songs he wrote are good though. Sometimes simple lyrics work wonders in songs.

    So many things in life are impossible. But who cares if they are impossible. This is the meaning of the track. Hauting melody.

    I think this song is about doing someone you loved wrong, and wanting to right that wrong.

    The lyrics cannot reach Depeche Mode-quality (like In Your Room, Judas, Precious,...). Gahan should quit writing...But the mood is great, reminds me of Joy Division...

    When I read these lyrics, I think of a guy who fell in love with a girl, but never fell out of love with her, even after breaking up. In this song he approaches her, and even though she has gotten over him, his words bring back memories in her mind, and she begins to rekindle her love for him. Going into this song, this girl thought never in a million years would she get back with this dude, but she then soon realizes that nothing's impossible.

Little Feat
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”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
