@[LibWingofLibWing:26111] I'm fully with you on that one. The original meaning is irrelevant to me. There's such a sense of nostalgia and sadness but it's beautiful at the same time. Personally this reminds me of early 2000s when a lot was going on in my life and I was having a very emotional and manic time. I was flying back and forth between London and New York for work while in a hypomanic state (undiagnosed bipolar at that time). The talk of 'awake on my airplane' brings back definite memories of the couple of hours before landing in New York the second time immensely excited as I'd decided to move there on a whim. Excited but also massively agitated - made liveable my partying and drinking with some new friends. Once I came down from the mania I became massively depressed and wondered what the hell I was thinking. Flew back to London and spent a few years getting my life back together. So this song means all that! I came here to post this and see what the song meant to others after listening to the song for the first time in years. I'm very happy to hear you have similar happy/sad feelings about it. |
