I knew this song when I was two years old and my mom recorded me singing it on a tape to send it to my dad, he was a pilot and didn’t live with us. I forgot the lyrics when I grew up but one day I found the tape, maybe she never sent it to him. I think it's about a house, because your house knows you were little but if you leave, no one knows it outside, and no one takes care of these grown ups. In other words, the song is about a house that knows you were little, and a house can be a mother, a city or a phone. |

| LCD Soundsystem – All My Friends Lyrics

I always thought this song was about not having friends. I couldn’t understand the lyrics very well except for where are your friends tonight, so I always thought it was a rhetorical question to make you realise you’re by yourself. I guess I’ve always been a loner and that’s why I thought that. I’ve met great friends, but we always drift apart, we’re good, just not close. I didn’t think the song was cruel because the music is the opposite of cruel. There’s something to it, the repetition or the rhythm, that reminds me of love will tear us apart (mistaken again, I used to think it was about being away because of love, more like love keeping you apart). Anyway, there is a sad feeling to all my friends, but while it tells you that you are alone the music won’t ever leave you alone. It’s such a powerful feeling, like a big celebration of that sadness about time and people, the opposite of cruel. Reading your stories though, I realised it does make me miss things as well, only they’re something that doesn’t exist, and I miss them so much. |
