Find a sidekick pronto I should
Think Thelma not Daria
So I search hard and near and far for
Someone the description called for
Thought seldom not Daria
Found her in a suburban wasteland
Swaddling clothed and caked in beach sand
At first sight thought that I might turn and
Run out of fear and intrigue
I stood numb kind of military
I'd found her I'd keep her
Don't make a sound
Look up at the sky shit's going down
I heard a bang and stars collided
Her skin drew me in just like a magnet
Little girl my little world is yours
Never even thought once to turn round
Real life plays tricks on the brain
Pointed fingers were left in the dust and The ones who doubted rusted
We're out of here like Vladimir
Now I'm looking at a picture where I'm right beside you
Eyes shine with a light that binds you
To this fool with Super Glue
From all the way across the nation
You came with just your name and
Your suitcase I'll keep you
Don't make a sound
Look up at the sky shit's going down
I heard a bang and stars collided
Her skin drew me in just like a magnet
Little girl my little world is yours
And be my Thelma & Louise
Brush that sand off your ask
Your questions later love me long time
The Vladimir thing is just a saying. Like "See ya later, alligator." The song itself is about hsi girlfriend (at the time) I believe her name was Sonia. As was "Rescue" on the same album. Though unlike "Rescue," "Bang" was only played a few times live, and then dropped out of their setlists.
First off, let me say I fell in love with this song the moment I heard it. Eve 6 is an awesome band and all of their songs rock.
Secondly, I don't exactly know what the Daria reference means but it could be referring to an animated character on and MTV show who was often cynical. I don't know if that's what he means but hopefully it helps.
Vladamir Komarov was a famous Russian cosmonaut.He was the first person to die during a space flight. Space is theme throughout the song, so "we're out of here, like Vladamir."
This song is pretty obvious, he's found his soulmate. This is one of my favorite Eve 6 songs. :)
mine too, like u said, he found his soulmate, even tho shes not perfect and rich and beautiful, she's his.
I think it's about looking for something different but finding wit u should have been looking 4 in the 1st place
i love this song bc its one of those fairy tale romances, which never happen in real life, but hey we can all dream right
This song is Eve 6's best song....lyrically and musically. I love the "ding" guitar part during the verses.
I agree with all of the above.. This is their best song.. Ah, I just love it so much. ^_^
i love this song. the scenery created by the lyrics is so surreal and outlandish and beautiful. i wish i knew what figures in our culture eve6 was referring to by "thelma" "daria" and "vladimir" though (unless theyre totally random). it would make more sense then. does anyone know? but anyway. it's great. it's like he finds some great crazy treasure and doesn't know what to do with it and then finally takes it and cant part with it ever again. and the stars collide;) oh i love this song!
