U2 – Discothèque Lyrics 23 years ago
Hey All...I love this song (always have) and to me at has a really deep meaning.
"Sexual/Love Frustration" is what comes to mind when I think of this. Here Bono relates to how elusive love is - "you can reach but you can't grab it
you can't hold it control it you can't bag it"
Here's the part where he wants beauty and realizes its hollowness (but still wants it) - "you know you're chewing bubblegum
you know what that is but you still want some
you just can't get enough of that lovie dovie stuff"
and how about wanting to be the object of desire of the one you desire? - "looking for the one
but you know you're somewhere else instead
you want to be the song
the song that you hear in your head "
Good song to play when frustration overtakes me. ;)
