This song is a most overt reference to both the science fiction great, Stanley Kubrick's, "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Love the Bomb," as well as the current 2017 geopolitical climate (which, coincidentally, the 53 year old film still somehow manages to relate to as well).
I don't think it is much deeper than that. |

I believe there are multiple messages in this song. Basically the scene has changed but the game is still the same. When rock and roll became popular, everyone jumped on board because it was the new cool thing. The song is relating that to the current generation. The majority listen to a genre not because it is amazing, but it is the cool thing to do, like mindless zombies unable to decide for themselves. It also conveys that all hope is not lost however, as there are many open minded people who still explore other music and still listen to rock and roll. The zombie line in the song is indicative of the fact that "classic rock" is still popular. This is my take on the whole scenario.
On a side note, in contrast to the song "Video Killed the Radio Star" to which this song pays homage, I believe the revolution this time is much more significant. Music videos did not have near the impact that the internet did on the entire music scene, or the world for that matter. The internet truly gave the power of control to the people. |

I agree that this is not a religious song. It is more of a question of faith. Faith does not make it about religion. Good song though! |

It is pretty self explanatory what this means... But it is gold for sure! "When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold" is the perfect name for this album. Best official release since God Loves Ugly. |

I was at this show. I was standing right next to a group of girls. One cut her foot on a broken corona bottle on the floor and she went upstairs to wash it off and a worker at the venue who was a convicted sex offender took her into a back room and raped and killed her and stuffed her body into a closet and moved a vending machine in front of it. When I heard it on the news the next day I knew exactly who it was. I saw her in her last moments. Very real. Very scary. Great tribute. |
