| London Grammar – Strong Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
The way I interpret this song: The narrator is caught up between emotions and her thoughts. She is sharing how the expectations we have of people are not really true, and how their ego’s take the better of them. ‘Yeah and man seem so strong, Yeah man speak so long, Man never been so wrong.’ Probably realizing this is why the narrator is so mixed up between feelings and thoughts. The narrator seems to be in a conversation, trying to level with a person who she feels might be going through the same and excusing herself for her behavior. The lion represents her gut feeling, which is not compliant with the expectations that we have of humans. |

The song is both a reflection of how people treat one another nowadays and of heartache and fear. The first verse she describes the mess that was left after he left. And she ponders if it was all worth it to begin with. (destroy the middle, it’s a waste of time, from the perfect start to the finish line) The second verse describes the reasons why people mistreat one another, not being connected to each other anymore because we’ve all lost that innocence because we got hurt in love. And we’ll do anything to avoid getting hurt. The third verse sounds to me as a sarcastic attack on that way of living. An attack on our generation. She is addressing the person who did this to her quite clearly, getting more personal after the ‘ you caused it’ part. She’s afraid she’ll be one of many, as she is saying she’s afraid he’ll forget her. As if she was nothing, but this is not how she sees him. She valued/values him and clearly still misses him. This I my interpretation, as I’m going through this. |

| Crystal Castles – Not in Love Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| It's clearly about someone who just needs a 'friend with benefits'. Just needs a warm body, someone to hold. The other person doesn't understand so he explains he won't take it as far as love because he's still hurt. | |
| Bat for Lashes – Laura Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I'm not sure if she's singing about one of her alter ego's, like Pearl. Or an actual Laura. Nevertheless. The song is absolutely breathtaking. I think we all have a 'Laura' in our lives. Whether she's an alter ego or an actual person. |

| Bloc Party – Signs Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
It's obviously about a lover who committed suicide. 'The last time we slept together, there was something that was not there You never wanted to alarm me but I'm the one that's drowning now' The person was 'not there', he didn't want to 'alarm' him with his pain. He was drowning and now Kele is drowning. People who are depressed often lose weight, hence the reference to seeing him ' fleshed out' probably the way he used to be before he got in this mental state. It's a beautiful song and eventhough I've never lost anyone to suicide I can still find some form of grief in it. It doesn't matter how someone died. It's absolutely beautiful. |
