First song off the Observator album.
Fantastic, beautiful and soulful.
I think Sune said it was supposed to be about the lonely individual in the city or something? |

| Flunk – Sit Down Lyrics

It's just an anti-war song, not directed towards a particular conflict but to outbreaks of war generally.
I think it capture's anti-war sentiment beautifully and hauntingly - despite the inescapability of the conflict ('I can't pull out') the insistence that the singers will opt to 'sit down' (rather than take up arms) is touching.
I think it means it something that the characters in this song are only 'keep[ing] the defence'. They're not lobbing grenades or anything. |

The way the singer yearns for a bad boy to shake up her life...is this akin to a small, newly industrialised nation wanting to play with the big boys (rich countries) by opening up its borders, which will supposedly make it wealthy, developed etcetera?
Just a thought. |

I can see where you're coming from. The way the singer yearns for a bad boy to shake up her life...is this akin to a small, newly industrialised nation wanting to play with the big boys (rich countries) by opening up its borders, which will - according to the current neoliberal economic paradigm - make it wealthy, developed etcetera? |

Yes I saw it as very military as well......could be about a conscript soldier who has completed his term. And they want him back on the frontline. "No! I won't go back...you must be out of your head!" |
