This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
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.
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
come on, any album (debut, nonetheless) that starts with "sucking on my tittles" is a force to be reckoned with. This shit blew my mind when i first heard it. It's electro, but really just rock-n-roll/punk in spirit. The ending is so intense, with the simple hi-hat coming in. Somehow it works. See her live.

I hope that last comment was a joke, because I was laughing my ass off the whole time I read it. I really hope it was a joke.
chrissy's name is in this song. shes my best friend.
i also like the way it's chrissy (be)hynde. clever ha
Good Song.
Just by reading pple's post's made me want to sign up.
For one, pple who are insulting other's because there saying what this song mean's to them, yes they should bash it, but bashing the user who did is just stupid.
But as for the meaning of the song, Its about a girl & dating. the boys want her nuts and what not. and she's a bit of a slut, IUD is a device to help you not get pregnent, SIS, which most pple got right is, stay in school. Peaches is saying dont be a slut and get pregenant, stay in school.
i don't know this song was hyped up for no reason other than being edgy and stupid. And that goes for everyone else on here loving it as well.
Yeeeeaah, considering that this is one of the first prolific white female rappers who made it a point to embrace her sexuality and subvert standards, I'd try thinking over this comment again. Peaches is still going strong, and on top of that, she makes all of her own music.
I think this song is about Fucking The Pain Away. In Mayburry Gomer Pyle always had a fascination with titties as demonstrated by season 2 episode 6 and 9. Season 4 episode 20 and season 9 episode 11. Its pretty clear that in the video which you can reference on youtube gomer pyle was super horny for Peaches but she just wanted her titties sucked. Gommer or as I like to call him Gommie was more interested in fucking his pain away. He was a hopeless romantic but she just wanted to feel that new love/fuck feeling. LOLICOPTER

This moronic group of idiots called millennials actually believe this is music.
Garbage. It's just nonsensical garbage, from first note to last. It's incredibly sad that there is an entire generation who can't tell this apart from actual music.
So you idiots go ahead and fuck the pain away... I'd much rather ride the Crazy Train to the Jungle while I'm Breaking the Law and Screaming for Vengeance. Then I'll take a Painkiller and Walk down to the Cemetery Gates to meet my fellow Cowboys from Hell, and we'll go chase some Girls, Girls, Girls until we Shout at the Devil and have to go seek Sanctuary from those Bastard War Pigs. We'll see who has more fun.

@preacher11 You are aware that the generation before you said the same thing about your music, yes? And the generation before that said the same thing? <br /> Generations are not homogeneous drones, all your juvenoia is doing is showing your inability to understand other people, not demonstrating superiority.

"This song is MY song. This is MY stripping song! This song kicks so much major ass! The song is not godawful. WHat the fuck is godawful?! This song is da serious SHITZ dude!"
I like Peaches, but what the fuck? People like you make me hate the artist.
THANK you.
You're so right. I've been mildly addicted to Peaches for years but dimwits like this could shock me out of the spell that Ms. Nisker has cast over me.<br /> "Stripper Song"?! She oughta look up "godawful" in the dictionary sometime. The definition may real like a sketch of a biography for her and set her straight.<br /> This song is my pure sugar cane soda. Not g6dawful, not so healthy either.
love the beat. peaches doooo rock. yes indeed. <3
