It's more about the hesitation a guy has, starting conversations with girls in parties. "No. 1 Party Anthem" stands for this exact feeling, when you don't have the confident to approach but thinks she wants you to. Your'e telling yourself "come on, come on, come on...", "here it goes again"-(No.1 Anthem...). So you're on the prowl wondering whether she left already or not Leather jacket collar popped like antenna, never knowing when to stop Sunglasses indoors par for the course, lights in the floors and sweat on the walls Cages and poles -- The first verse is about how you saw a girl you like in a party, and then seek her. "on a prowl", you look for her like a predator following its prey. Call off the search for your soul or put it on hold again She's having a sly indoor smoke, She calls the folks who run this her oldest friends, Sipping her drink and laughing at imaginary jokes --- the second verse start is about how you find her again, and then watch her. every thing stops, you just want to watch her. he describes how he watches her. As all the signals are sent Her eyes invite you to approach And it seems as though those lumps in your throat That you just swallowed have got you going --- this part is when you get the feeling she's into you, you sure she does, but not really sure, starts thinking about it. you really want to go and you start to hesitate. and here's starts the No.1 party anthem again - the same ritual in your mind. "come on.....come on.." - just get there. She's a certified mind blower knowing full well that I don't I may suggest there's somewhere from which I might know her Just to get the ball to roll --- this part is what is going through his mind - thinking how to start the conversation. Drunken monologues, confused because It's not like I'm falling in love I just want you to do me no good And you look like you could --- simulating a conversation in your head. things she could say when you approach, and what is your response to those things. and once again the anthem starts, you tell yourself "come on... come on............" but this time it's been to much time, she noticed you, she noticed you noticed her, the moment is about to expire, she may think you don't want to. ("before the moments gone..") this is where i'm not so sure myself about my interpretation: The look of love The rush of blood The "she's with me" The Gallic shrug The shutterbugs The camera plus The black and white and the colour dodge The good time girls The cubicles The house of fun The number one party anthem --- I presonally think these are all the possible outcomes of him approaching. "look of love, rush of blood" - a new love. "she's with me, gallic shrug" - she has a someone. "shutterbug, camera plus..." - just a good time in a party, taking pics and whatnot. "the good time girls, cubicles.." - a night with this girl, nothing serious. Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Come on, come on, come on Before the moment's gone Number one party anthem Number one party anthem Number one party anthem ----- and all this time, he still hadn't approach. |

I can relate so to each and every word, I hope I can explain what it means. Its about how hard you try to find a good love and relationshop, but still keep on failing. Young and full of running Tell me where's that taking me? Just a great figure eight or a tiny infinity By young and full of running, I think he means he is optimistic and very motivated to find love. but time after time it gets him no where, like going in circles (infinity, 8). Love is really nothing But a dream that keeps waking me For all of my trying We still end up dying How can it be? He tries, and he finds a girl. but it's not working. and again the same. He feels angry, how can he try so hard but still can't find love? He gives all of himself, he wants something back. he wants this good love everybody is talking about. Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me 'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me It did'nt work, but he gave so much he fell inlove. He is heartbroken and angry, he wants her so bad he is willing to sacrifice everything he believes in, forget who he really is. HE JUST WANT THIS LOVE TO WORK. So young and full of running, all the way to the edge of desire Steady my breathing, silently screaming, "I have to have you now" Wired and I'm tired Think I'll sleep in my clothes on the floor Maybe this mattress will spin on its axis and find me on yours this is after the break up, he got his heartbroken. He is alone in his apartment, dreaming about her touch, very emotional. Its like he's crying, and whisper scream her name, trying to steady his breathing. He can't think of anything else, everything is meaningless, he is broken, and can't even get off the floor and get ready to bed, he just wants to sleep the way he is on the floor. dreaming of getting back together with her. |
