This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Love on an atom,
Love on a cloud,
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how
So I'd abandon the love in my dreams
When I wake up I'm soaking in my sheets
Breathe
Breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe
That we are loud like
Love on an atom
Love on a cloud
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how
For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth
So we name them
And somehow they pull us through
We have craved them
For all of our youth
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, Believe, believe, believe
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
Love on a cloud,
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how
So I'd abandon the love in my dreams
When I wake up I'm soaking in my sheets
Breathe
Breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, believe
That we are loud like
Love on an atom
Love on a cloud
To see the birth of all that isn't now
Can you imagine a love that is so proud?
It never has to question why or how
For all of our youth
We have craved them
Their beauty and their truth
So we name them
And somehow they pull us through
We have craved them
For all of our youth
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Believe, Believe, believe, believe
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love
We are loud like love

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.
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
To me, this song is obviously about parent/child relationship. "Love on an atom, love on a cloud." ~ Birth and death.
"To see the birth of all that isn't now." ~ Birth, again.
"Can you imagine a love that is so proud, it never has to question why or how?" ~ The love of a parent is unconditional.
"Total abandon, the love in my dreams. When I wake? I'm soaking in my sheets." ~ To me this has to do with how obsessive parents about taking care of their kids. Even when they dream.
"Breathe, breathe..." ~ A woman giving birth
"Believe, believe, believe."
"For all of our youth we have? craved them." ~ The idea of being a parent is always in our minds, even when we are young.
"Their beauty and their truth" ~ Children are beautiful and truthful.
"Breathe, breathe, breathe... Believe, believe, believe that we are loud like..." ~ Kids carry on our believes... and they are loud!
"Love on an atom, love on a cloud."
"For all of our youth, we have craved them. Their beauty and their truth."
"So we name them and somehow they pull us through." ~ Very literal. You name your sons, you give them an identity and take care of them but in the end, they are the ones who give you strength and help you make it through life.
This song definitely makes? me think about my parents. <3
My first impression was that it's about children, too, but some lines don't fit in. Like "For all of our youth, we have craved them" - young people normally don't crave children...<br /> Anyway, I think it's the most optimistic Placebo song ever :)
