This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Look around could it bring somebody down
If I never made a sound again?
In your eyes you've already spread my thighs
And you're rocking to the next big thing
Kissing the bride 45 minutes a side
This was my dream played out rocking routine
Who sucked out the feeling?
Where'd you go now that everybody knows
And we did a couple shows out there?
Look at me I can write a melody
But I can't expect a soul to care
Kissing the bride, 45 minutes a side
This was my dream, played out rocking routine
Who sucked out the feeling?
Kissing the bride, 45 minutes a side
Who sucked out the feeling?
If I never made a sound again?
In your eyes you've already spread my thighs
And you're rocking to the next big thing
Kissing the bride 45 minutes a side
This was my dream played out rocking routine
Who sucked out the feeling?
Where'd you go now that everybody knows
And we did a couple shows out there?
Look at me I can write a melody
But I can't expect a soul to care
Kissing the bride, 45 minutes a side
This was my dream, played out rocking routine
Who sucked out the feeling?
Kissing the bride, 45 minutes a side
Who sucked out the feeling?

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.

@[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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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 is about the record business. How it was their big dream to make it, and how reality just kinda sucked it all out of them like a drag on a cigarette. They were discovered and given a record deal, and for all their hard work, and the fact that the dream really did come true, the company and the fans have gotten their rocks off, and have moved on to the next artist, the next new sound. Like a new bride who has been deflowered, the wedding's over and this is the rest of your life. So they're talking about the casual music fan, and the fickle company man who only cares about the dollar. '45 minutes a side' i think refers to old fashioned wax or vinyl LPs. He's kind of waking up from the dream, wondering what the heck happened. Who sucked out the feeling?
@grimjack I was going to say some of that and will just add to your LP concept.<br /> <br /> A LP without spacing between tracks can be 45 minutes long each side. So it seems to be referring to the idea of playing non-stop for all he has and then being left with nothing when he is used up.<br /> <br /> He had a dream to make music that the people would hear and now his five minutes of fame has passed. Fans already used him up. The groupies had their fantasies. The company got their money.<br /> <br /> Now he's left with songs that have already been written, even though he could create something new. He wonders why he should bother.
@grimjack @elraver I wonder if 45 minutes a side refers to a 90 minute cassette tape and not a record. LPs are generally around 20 minutes a side. Even less for best quality. As you go longer it will need to be cut quieter and quieter with less and less low frequencies. 45 minutes a side is really pushing it! It would have to be extremely quiet and thin sounding. Anything I have with that amount of music is a "double record"
@grimjack I believe the “45 minutes a side” is actually a reference to the ‘45 minutes’ you have on stage as an opening band. And even tho having a record contract, it’s still only a ‘side gig’ for them as they still had to have full time jobs. Hence the sarcastic “this was my Dream; played out rocking routine“ giving breath to the line “who sucked out the feeling?”.
this is about a wedding singer who is at a wedding but thinks he is the most important person there and it's his big day and not theirs
i have a different theory. maybe the character in the song was a wedding singer, yes, but he kissed the bride only 45 minutes after her wedding. "where'd you go now that everybody knows" sort of points to that. and he's saying now that he's been with her she doesn't really care about him anymore and he doesn't feel like he's worth anything. and it's like there's no feeling left in playing, because it used to be all he had, then he met her and she broke his heart, now nothing matters.
I saw these guys live once about... damn, I guess it was like 6 years ago. I forgot about them until like 3 months ago, GREAT stuff. They remind me of Nada Surf a lot, not because of the sound, but because of the time period I guess.
this song is so good.
this song rocks my socks off
i adore this song
hahaha... i can see the wedding singer idea. that's a marvelous idea if that was his intention. this is one of the better songs of that period. its not deep or intesely meaningful, but its so damn fun to listen to. makes me wanna dance in place.
This is definetly one of the lost treasures of the mid 90's, and I completely concur with watchthefireworks about Nada Surf. I remember that summer when both of these videos were all over MTV. I belive it was 96. Some real memory's with this one.
Grimjack is the hoochie-mac. He hit the nail on the head.
