Make It Rain

The Audition

Go run and tell all the neighbors
Go run and tell everyone
There's a storm that's coming for her
This type of rain will make her fall in love

This girl's so condescending
Mysterious, but beautiful
So go run and tell all the neighbors
I'm gonna grab her heart and won't let go

[Chorus]
I've never wanted you so much
As I do right now
I can't believe this is happening to me

Hey, make it rain
Flood the streets if only for today
Hey, make it rain
I need you, I want you, oh
I just can't help it, baby
All we got's tonight
Hey, make it rain, yeah

Her favorite place to dance is outside
Especially when the stars are bright
So that's exactly where I'm headed
She's beautiful under night skies

I've been waiting for this weather
Come rain, come shine
She's mine
Go run and tell all the neighbors
Go run and tell everyone
The storm is coming
Better come inside


[Chorus]

My eyes will be locked on you
I'm moving for the kill
So sit still
I want your eyes locked on me
You will be loving me till the morning

Hey, make it rain
Flood the streets if only for today
Hey, make it rain
I need you, I want you, oh
I just can't help it, baby
All we got's tonight
Hey, make it rain

    I think this may be first favorite song on the album. This is definately no Controversy Loves Company but it's a nice change. There's only one song I don't care too much about other than that the album is pretty good. PLUR OXH

    All of their songs are about sex. Whether it's completely obvious or subliminial. The bassist even told my friend that.

    My Opinion

    So...if this song is about sex, what's the random party about in the music video?

    I love The Audition but that music video kind of disappointed me. They posted it in a blog and people were commenting saying they loved it, but when I saw it I was like, "yeah, danny looks attractive, like always, but what's so amazing about this?" Their /other/ videos worked the song into its contents somehow. This seems like they were just struggling for ideas and chose a random party because it'd be easy to do seeing as tons of people would be more than willing to shoot it. Or at least that's how it seems, in comparison to their other videos.

    Oh well, I love The Audition. :] And this isn't a change to their music style so it doesn't matter. Haha.

    I think this song is about this amazing girl he is completely, undeniabley in love with. "Her favorite place to dance is outside Especially when the stars are bright So that's exactly where I'm headed She's beautiful under night skies" ^those are my favorite lyrics of the song. she's this unique girl that intrigues him. He's willing to do anything to be with her. Also the theme of rain used as a positive thing, like he embraces her flaws instead of dwelling upon them. love that.

    Probably my favorite The Audition song. I absolutely ADORE them!

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
