Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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.
Blue

Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Great song i love Rammstein!
This is one of the best rammstein songs ever. The live music videos are so freakin' hot. I wish i was the keyboardist! Till Lindemann is great. The song talks about how a person is screwed in the rear. This is a very odd song. Still it's one of my favirotes!
It's a song about buggery. In GERMAN!

This is about a new slave or servant. He doesn't perform as well as the last one and it disappoints him. It even gets to the point where it brings him to tears. I know somewhat how he feels... after I lost her, nobody else is even close to as good. I miss holding her leash...

i can't understand, why u are surprised (or what ever) that you can talk about things like these in a song in germany - cause america is the country, which doesn't show boobs and stuff like that on tv ....in europe it's a normal thing
lol what in hell was up with the video...very nice...omigod IN HIS OWN FACE!! Eh, but I guess Schmello has a point, i was in GB for a few weeks and was really surprised by what was on tv...but anyway, cool song, fun to see ppl who love the song and dont know what it means...
