This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
This is definitely not the first video to surface of an execution
They claimed responsibility for the executions
Described as severely mentally disturbed
It appears to show another hostage executed by the terrorist group
Deserve to be annihilated
I get my kicks and I want to start a rager
I want to dance like I'm on the video
I got a fever for the violent behavior
I'm sweating bullets like a modern Romeo
Bang, bang, give me fame
Shoot me up to entertain (oh)
I am a semi-automatic lonely boy
You're dead, I'm well fed
Give me death or give me head (oh)
Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier
I testify like a lullaby of memories
Broadcasting live and it's on my radio
I got my photo bomb, I got my Vietnam
I love a lie just like anybody else
Bang, bang, give me fame
Shoot me up to entertain (oh)
I am a semi-automatic lonely boy
You're dead, I'm well fed
Give me death or give me head (oh)
Broadcasting from my room and playing with my toys
I want to be a celebrity martyr (oh)
The leading man in my own private drama
Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour
Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier
I wanna be like the soldiers on the screen
It's my private movie (Holy war)
Oh, baby, baby, this is Viva Vendetta
Oh, this is love or it's World War Zero
I wanna be a celebrity martyr
The leading man in my own private drama
Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour
Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier
I wanna be a celebrity martyr (oh)
The leading man in my own private drama
Hurrah (bang bang), hurrah (bang bang) the hero of the hour
Daddy's little psycho and mommy's little soldier
They claimed responsibility for the executions
Described as severely mentally disturbed

Deserve to be annihilated
I get my kicks and I want to start a rager
I want to dance like I'm on the video

Bang, bang, give me fame
Shoot me up to entertain (oh)
I am a semi-automatic lonely boy
You're dead, I'm well fed

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

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Well, it's fairly clear what the song is about; there's not a lot of room for misinterpretation here. The song takes a look into the psyche of a mass shooter, specifically, school shooters, as suggested by the childlike references such as "broadcasting from my room / playing with my toys" and "Daddies little psycho, mommies little solider."
Bang-Bang seems to suggest that shooters become obsessed with the idea of fame, to the point where it warps reality, and they see themselves as a hero rather than a villain. They consider themselves martyrs in a war on society, and the more publicized their attacks, the more they "entertain" the American public, and the more fame they receive.
All in all, it's a pretty straightforward song, and, like most GD songs, phenomenal. I can't wait for this upcoming album. In the craziness of 2016, America needs a good dose of green day.
uh this is different.
At first I was thinking of news anchors and relating this song to how much BS news stations have caused by just broadcasting lies (all of them not a specific one). They report parts of certain stories to cause hype and to tell a story that is tailored for a certain reaction, new anchors being the face/voice you associate with said stories. I read Emergency Emergency's post and now it seems obvious that terrorism was the subject.. but then I thought about it and now I'm kinda like.. comparing news anchors/new stations to terrorists/terrorism. Hmmm.
