Modern Romance

I always thought she said that time stops who it wants, not stops who we was...

What about the hidden song? I haven't seen the lyrics for it on here, so here they are:

Baby, I'm afraid of a lot of things But I ain't scared of loving you. And baby I know you're afraid of a lot of things But don't be scared of love. Cause people will say all kinds of things But that don't mean a damn to me Cause all I see is what's in front of me And that's you. Well, I've been dragged all over the place I've taken hits Time just don't erase. And baby I can see that you've been fucked with too, But that don't mean Your lovin' days are through. Cause people will say all kinds of things But that don't mean a damn to me Cause all I see is what's in front of me And that's you. Well I may be just a fool But I know we're just as cool And cool kids, they belong together.

This seems like such an opposite song from Modern Romance. I love them both.

This is the actual version of modern romance and gosh its pretty. Karen O has such an amazing singing voice.

It sounds like she's jaded and cynical after a relationship gone sour, and she's telling herself to just forget about love because it's a futile endeavor. I can totally relate to everything she says here.

to me it makes me ponder of all those old loves.. like the people who fought in the war and stayed together through hard times. no one stays together anymor. i can also relate to this view. its a positive song to me without using love as a prize. "Don’t hold on go get strong" -briliant line of advice even if it is simple.

this song is amazing.

damn this song is beautiful. it's just like...full and aching and lonely....

i've fallen in love with it over the past few months of listening to it. it's perfect.

i love it, it makes me ache.

i agree with the above comment this song makes me ache it's about moving on from the previous relationship and even though it's so hard, you can't hold on to any of it love isn't all that it's cracked up to be and hey buddy, didn't you hear there's no modern romance? this song makes me cry. and even one of my friends said "the yeah yeah yeahs are depressing" when he heard this one song

It´s a really sad song, it is very different from all the other yeah yeah yeahs songs. It´s about ending of a "modern romance" which can not exist anymore. It´s about looking back to the start, realising how it was great in the beginning, how everything seemed to work out fine, and you both where very enthusiastic about everything. but at the end, you must confess that everything went wrong and that your "once so special relationship/romance" failed just like any other.
