This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Turn around there's those eyes again.
Turn around fake indifference and I.
Watch their cold, dark silhouettes disappear.
A hundred bodies fill this room.
And all their faces overdone.
Pain is foreign, foreign to us.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?
Roses, roses cold.
Roses, roses sold out.
Turn around reds and whites again.
I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar.
Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets. Why are some girls so naive?
He didn't unbutton your blouse to see.
A better view of your heart.
Oh yeah, can't blame you for trying.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?
Roses, roses cold.
Roses, roses sold out.
Sing it soft.
Make it slow.
Apples parachute
the boys back down.
Fill it up.
Overflow.
A new, improved modern way to feel.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?
Turn around fake indifference and I.
Watch their cold, dark silhouettes disappear.
A hundred bodies fill this room.
And all their faces overdone.
Pain is foreign, foreign to us.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?
Roses, roses cold.
Roses, roses sold out.
Turn around reds and whites again.
I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar.
Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets. Why are some girls so naive?
He didn't unbutton your blouse to see.
A better view of your heart.
Oh yeah, can't blame you for trying.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?
Roses, roses cold.
Roses, roses sold out.
Sing it soft.
Make it slow.
Apples parachute
the boys back down.
Fill it up.
Overflow.
A new, improved modern way to feel.
I don't even know you.
You won't even know I'm gone.
Was it something I did wrong?

No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
i LALA-LOVE THIS SONG!
i agree, its deff about drugs... they're in a club... "All their faces overdone, pain is foreign, foreign to us..." it's an ecstacy reference... As well as: "Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets." X gets your body temp up hardcore... and as users, me and my friends have actually used shoelaces to chew on while we've "geeked" (the side affect that makes your jaw clamp shut against your will)... "All their faces overdone" might be talkin bout a "thizz face"... X makes the muscles in your face involuntarily flex and tighten, and the user makes some funny faces...
nobody cares what you do when you're desperate.<br /> if you do drugs, good for you, but dont tell anybody.<br /> thats stupid. cops are everywhere.<br /> and uhh this song is not about drugs.<br /> coincidence probably.
I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar. Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets.
they're at a rave.
i definitely can see the connection to drugs in this song, but i think that's more of an abstract meaning. It could quite possibly have a double meaning. I think it takes place in a bar where there are women with "faces overdone" with makeup. The women are all looking for love, but not expecting to get hurt easily. The opposing expectations of the men in the room are not as innocent. "he didn't unbutton your shirt for a better view of your heart." This is just my opinion, but I believe that the "roses" could represent the opposite intentions of the men. Guys throw around the "l word" constantly and the song in a way is a representation of a girl who fell into the idea that a guy does love her, but truly he doesn't even know her, may never see her again, and will not try to. "you won't even know im gone" then the part, "apples parachute the boys back down" means boys come down from their lust much more quickly than girls. They're over the short-lived relationship as soon as they've gotten what they want, basically sex. (roses that are cold)
@EIGHTEENaintsosweet <br /> or "apples parachute, the boys back down," means<br /> the girls who offer the whole thing and <br /> scare the boys away, the boys who wanted no-strings, no commitment,<br /> backing down because they are afraid of THAT "apple"
Why are some girls so naive? He didn't unbutton your blouse to see. A better view of your heart. Oh yeah, can't blame you for trying.
posted that as a myspace bulletin got "you know how people say we only use 10% of our brains.... i think we only use 10% of our hearts" as a reply hahaaha
awwww my after 'monster' on the album and it's a perfect follow up :D
Sing it soft. Make it slow. Apples parachute the boys back down. Fill it up. Overflow. A new, improved modern way to feel.
..that's my favorite part
Turn around there's those eyes again. Turn around fake indifference and I. [Watch their cold, dark silhouettes disappear. A hundred bodies fill this room. And all their faces overdone. Pain is foreign, foreign to us.] At first I thought this verse was supposed to be morbid. I thought the bodies line was referring to corpses XD. But after reading it over again I realize it's referring to a dance club or a rave...as for the "pain is foreign to us" they're probably on morphine or something LOL
[I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar.] She wants a smoke. XD
[Fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets.] Noticing the couples around. Their hands are tied together with shoelaces. Because it's romantic, I guess? Or something...
[Why are some girls so naive? He didn't unbutton your blouse to see a better view of your heart.] So there's some girl with her guy and they're...having fun. LOL She's just commenting on how some girls are really naive and domr guys don't actually love them-- they just want someone to bang :)
[ Apples parachute the boys back down. ] ...I have no idea what this means. Maybe the girl whose point of view the song is from got high, too? XD Because that makes NO SENSE. WHATSOEVER. Unless "apples" and "parachutes" have some strange meaning that I'm not aware of.
There are pretty girls who sell roses for a couple dollars in some bars with little flower baskets. I think that's what the entire song is referring to. A flower girl in a bar or a club or something, being a bit jealous of all the couples around...
In literature, apples tend to represent temptation. Parachutes slow down the speed at which something falls. Not necessarily agreeing, but not necessarily dissagreeing either, this would imply that, acording to your analysis, the fact that they were screwing while at least the guy was high might mean that it draws out the high feeling.<br /> <br /> I'm trying to think of a way to put that more clearly. <br /> <br /> If you're high, and have sex just before you start coming down, you might be able to keep the feelings going for a little bit longer, feeling good from the sex, seperate from the feeling directly iflicted by the drugs.<br /> <br /> "apples parachute the boys back down." translated = temptation (sex) slows down the decreasing feeling you get when coming off of a high. <br /> <br /> This is making it sound like ecstacy. <br /> <br /> I feel wrong though, in my theory, because I don't know about drugs from first hand experience. <br /> <br />
i agree with daniface..the ending..i think it means. that [Sing it soft. Make it slow. Apples parachute the boys back down. Fill it up. Overflow. A new, improved modern way to feel]
a girl thats a flower girl.decide to stand up and say its ok to keep your rose.(virgirnty)
{I don't even know you. You won't even know I'm gone. Was it something I did wrong? }
the giving up your roses leaves you asking question and alone
{Roses, roses cold. Roses, roses sold out.}
[ Apples parachute the boys back down. ]
What do apples do when you drop them? They crash down. So it's like an oxymoron.
Apples parachute the boys back down.
i read on their website message board that dia wrote this bridge, and that its a ganja [marijuana] reference. kinda makes sense..?
I'm going to take a guess on this one and say that I agree with you that it probably is a ganja refrence <br /> "Apples parachute the boys back down" I think to some extent means: Ganja brings the boys(troops) back to reality....this is what the boys would do when they were in Vietnam in the 60's....
