Brandon Flowers – Hard Enough (feat. Jenny Lewis) Lyrics 15 years ago
When I listened to this song for the first time, it sounded like it was maybe about Brandon and his wife. They met when they were both really young, married very young, and through his whole career, stuck by each other, and even began having kids. Obviously Brandon being a musician and all, especially an extremely famous one, can't be easy for a wife or girlfriend, etc, all the time, especially with groupies constantly throwing themselves at him, him always being away, and like any human being, the temptations that's out there, especiallyyy in that industry. Brandon has even commented in past interviews that initially, the whole "rock star/celebrity" life really shocked him and indirectly hinted that he's gone through some stuff because of it; "Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes" - obviously it hasn't been easy constantly adjusting to the changes that keep coming in his life. Maybe the song is just his way of letting his wife know, hey, you're not in this thing alone & I go through a lot too. And that throughout it all, she's stuck by him and thanks to her for that, look where they are now, especially him = "Where would I be tonight if you hadn't held me here, in your arms?"

But that's just my take lol.

Brandon Flowers – Swallow It Lyrics 15 years ago
Honestly I thought the same thing, like a guy and his girl and she's not exactly the most experienced at it and he's just letting her know throughout the song that with time & practice she'll be fine basically lol, and not to worry cuz she'll get the hang of things. After all, " Don't be afraid, this is your year / It's gonna be alright, you're a performer." Could be Brandon's sense of humor coming out in this song, poking fun and playing around with lyrics. Thought it was pretty hilarious.

Then again I could be absolutely wrong :| lol. And if I am, well .. this was an interesting interpretation.
