| Paolo Nutini – New Shoes Lyrics | 2 years ago |
| @[chinaski2323:48135] You may be correct, but it is certainly not "obvious" at least not to someone that didn't know about his history with drugs. I've always interpreted it as being about death, and when he is surprised to see all his friends dancing around and around, that is his interpretation of heaven. Even though I struggle with any kind of organized religion myself, it is a comforting thought for me, especially since this was my Mom's favorite song (RIP). I think the beauty of music is it can mean something to each individual listener based on their life experiences. I don't have much knowledge of heroin or that lifestyle, so your observations quite literally never occurred to me. But having lost both parents in the last seven years, the concept of loss and life-after-death definitely did. | |
