Being Armenian myself, the first thing I noticed in the lyrics is not cheesiness, but rather a naiveness and simplicity, which is very typical of young people. The smoothies thing is trendy in Armenia, it's one of the most common things young people do when they hang out, go on dates, unwind, bla bla, they go for smoothies. Smoothies are ALL OVER the city in the summer, it's a vibe in Yerevan. It also kind of symbolizes the simplicity in romance that she wants. Sitting in cafes for hours, drinking smth, eating, etc is also a popular activity. We don't just go to a cafe to eat and go, we sit there for hours, we hang out with friends there, do business meetings in cafes, work from cafes, young people almost literally live in cafes in Yerevan lol! Cafes in the daytime, clubs in the nighttime. But ya... smoothies are a huge trend in Yerevan right now and have been for a few years, it would be the equivalent of "let's go get Starbucks" for America. Hope this gives some context.
For me the intro represents her tendency to daydream about her future lover. Even something as simple as a smoothie at cafes is enough for her to idealize the person she wants to be with. Once the rap part hits, she even mentions daydreaming with the first lyric and then is seemingly grounded by her anxiety and her efforts to make plans about her life, which in this case could be affected by societal pressure. For example, in conservative environments young people are constantly reminded that they need to find a partner and women especially are expected to marry young and raise children. If I am not mistaken, Armenian culture has similar traits to how the older generations pressure the younger ones in regards to marriage. So there you have it, an interpretation of this Future Lover. It is a case of a young person who wants to escape into their fantasy but is forced to face the reality of their anxiety, which they deal with by a constant endeavor to "be good, do good and look good". Possibly a mantra affirming her feelings and desires . That's why she decides and not decided; this indicates a conscious choice every time she feels she needs to be better and not something that has been done and is concluded. Hope that makes sense and makes you relate to it more. I am really rooting for Brunette and Armenia!!
I think the meaning of the lyrics "Be good do good look good" gets a lot more context after the rap break. Because in the rap section she talks about how she's lonely but restless, how she has unrealistic expectations, no plan, and has panic attacks. She's putting a lot of stress and pressure on herself. But she decides for herself to work on herself, to be good. And it's not like she "decided" to be good, she decides, like as a continuous thing she's constantly working on. Also the part where you were quoting the Nare rap was really cute. XD
The lyrics are simple but deep, the first few lines tell how she will be happy by just doing casual things like 'make art' 'read books' and 'drink smoothes at cafes' and then she tells her future lover that to be actually in love with her and not because she is pretty and attractive, she wants the love they will give her is not to show people but just to show love to love her, and when she raps she says how all this is a daydream she has and not sure if they will come true, also how she is nervous to meet someone she doesn't know, she I'd not sure if they will appreciate her, and like many young people she just wants to 'be good do good and look good' something which has been implanted in us to get a lover you do this do that look pretty look handsome, everyone nowadays wants to get prettier, fitter just so that someone will tell them they are beautiful
After a few days this song seeped into my heart, and I think it is deeper than it might seems at first listen. For me it gives voice to the tension between anxiety and hope, wanting to be free but feeling constrained, and choosing to take care of ourselves even when it is very difficult to do so.
You don’t have to only use words such as “war” “peace” in your song just to sound serious! “Do cute little things, like drink smoothies at near cafés” can say much more than y’all can even imagine
@@MaxxyRainbowESC well you have to be a really deep and emotional person to understand the lyrics and the song in general, but I guess not everybody is like that so … it doesn’t matter where she took the quotes from, what matters is what she’s trying to convey with those lyrics. I’ve seen so many reactors’ videos both girls and boys. The way they pay attention to every single detail of the song and explain from their point of view is so interesting. Whereas you didn’t even try to understand what the song would actually mean or how it was written. But that’s fine. It’s not your cup of tea I see ❤️
@@MaxxyRainbowESC I get what you mean by Pinterest quotes. My immediate impression is that it felt more like a dating profile, like a relatable but naive ideal relationship a young person might have.
Armenia is my winner !! The song, her voice, her charisma, the lyrics and the music video are AMAZING ! It gives me the feelings as 2017 & 2018's song do when I listened to them so I think it is one of the best song in 2020's for me ! ❤
Fun fact, I first thought the lyrics say I decide to be good, do good, (smth armenian)" so I am happy to see I'm not the only one who didn't hear that at first. But this doesn't put me off at all. Love their entry so much and I believe Brunette will slay live. What a Queen ❤🎉
the lyrics are her daydreaming about her future lover and the things they'll do together and the rap is her inner turmoil about how she presents herself to this person that she's never even met. "Be good, do good, look good" is her trying to be perfect for her future lover and the pressure that puts on herself. This is my #2 right now and i absolutely love it. Slow burn songs are risky at Eurovision since many people don't follow the pre-season and thus won't have that extra time to get into it; staging and performance will be key here because she'll have to "be good, do good, and look good" enough to hook people in just three minutes.
She says I decide to be good do good and look good. She didn’t say I want to be good. I love the lyrics and drinking smoothies in the cafe it’s so romantic and relaxing. Why not lol Thank you for your reaction 🙏🏻🇦🇲❤️ She’s definitely my winner with Loreen 🏆
To me the first sentences of the lyrics are actually very cute and deep. Because sometimes the most romantic moments happen while you’re doing the most simple things like drinking smoothies at neat cafes. I think what she wants to say with those lyrics is that all she wants is a simple, cute relationship with her future lover that won’t require constant drama to be interesting😊
No, these lyrics are deep. Her outher world / Be good, do good, look good / the superficial (the slow part) collides with her inner world / panic attacs / doubt & lack of direction (the rap part). As a writer (in my own language - not English) I'd say these lyrics are much more clever than most give it credit for. It's almost like a critique of our superficial world. This song is artistic, experimental and haunting. In my top 3. Love you from Norway

I don’t know if it’s that I’m not a native speaker and so I don’t get so caught up on the small details to the point I get lost in the lyrics but I actually find the overall message to be really simple? The first part are her innocent hopes and dreams for her future relationship, the rap is her fears and anxiety at not being good enough (and perhaps the 3 minutes a reference to the ESC live performance) and the chorus is her resolution: she decides to focus and work on herself to be a good and virtuous person, the best version of herself.
I think in her song she is singing about how simple her dreams are about her future lover and what simple and small wishes she has from her lover to make her happy. The rap is her actual condition and how stressed she is from her past experience. And be good, do good look good is something that after all her stress will restore her physical and emotional health back to normal. I am sure the English is her 3rd language and no one can make fun of someone who is singing in English when it is not her first language. Why is she singing in English, because you wouldn’t understand the song if it would be in Armenian. I can tell she is ver talented young girl who wrote her own song with words and music. I am amazed with her talent ❤ Bravo 👏
you know after everything we have seen during these 2-3 years its all we want , to just drink smoothies in near ethnic cafes with our lovers. You should be in our position to understand what it means to us .
Love this song and fully expect a great performance from Brunette, from what little I have seen of her she seems to be a great live performer. This entry will be elevated massively live for many people
The lyrics "I decide to be good, do good, look good..," this is like the personal MANTRA for her. So she needs to sing this out, over & over again, in order to will it into the Universe, for her to find her perfect "Future Lover," soul mate & for him/her to materialise.
It seems nobody sees smoothie in the sentence. just saying it is cheesy. But when you listen that word in the sentence, then it is not cheesy, it is part of story.
These youtube reaction people think they are professionals meanwhile they have no backstory with music or anything . It thinks that making music is as easy as copying some pintrest quotes and it s done lmao.
this is her story , she is young not like you old and tierd 😂 we all going to café and drink something . She is favorit drink is smoothie . Mine is milkshake Whats yours ?
Will you analize sooo deeply every meaning of the word of songs like Finland,Norway and other countries as you did it in Future lover, almost every blogger was admired of Future lover, many of them were musicians, you are first who give such weak reaction,Brunette wrote the lyrics and music herself, she wrote what she felt and it touched peoples heart and 1000 000 views in one day, Future lover has a Meaning in contrast to other songs of this year that you liked, this song is very unique and beautiful whether you like it or not
The near cafés lyric is really funny if we're to trust Reddit, since Brunette said she wrote part of the song based on quotes she had saved on her phone, somebody found the "drink smoothies at near cafés" lyric in a 10 year old tweet but that tweet had a typo. The quote is "drink smoothies at neat cafés"
She is young and her lyrics are innocent it’s not like the American singers where their lyrics are just so disgusting to hear. Honestly, as a girl and an American, I would love my man to take me out to cafés and have smoothies with me and do little things because that matters more than big things for me.
The comments on her diction and lyrical content to me are way off personally... Especially if you compare to 🇬🇪 where that actually is the case (can’t understand majority of what Iru is singing and with good reason because its complete nothingness)
A letter to a guy, she says that she would be happy with such small things as reading books in the libraries with him and even such a thing as drinking smoothies at a cafe. Read the text and you will understand.
but what the be good do goood look good has anything to do with it? also the panic attacks??? her having cold hands but fire in her veins?? what is the meaning of it...
@@lala-bp3wh these are all the feelings that she will have on the way to such a simple but terrible ... on the way of love ... And despite all the emotional swings, she be good do goood look good
I can't see what's wrong with these very descriptive lyrics, which tell the unfolding of a personal story; Future Lover I just wanna make art, read books and just find someone Who likes me enough to kiss my face I wanna explore with him and visit old bookstores And cute little things, like drink smoothies at near cafés Oh-oh-oh Drink smoothies at near cafés Oh-oh-oh Oh, future lover, I hope it all comes naturally I hope our love is quiet outside, but loud inside, oh baby Oh future lover, this song I wrote for you This song I wrote for you, my future lover I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good It's like a daydream, but I got some other, better plans I wanna scream and shout, my heart caught in chains Cold heart, cold hands, fire in my veins Fire in my veins, heart in chains I'm a volcano that is going to explode in a sec I'm so hypnotised by someone that I've never ever met Don't wanna forget, am I dreaming yet? Poetic dream, I don՚t want it to end, oh Three minutes of making impossible plans Seven minutes of unnecessary panic attacks Here I go with the coldest hands Here I go with still no plans oh, still no plans I can't cool off, no I can't relax Lord, what I'm gonna do, my pain just attacks I still have the coldest hands Oh my Lord, my Lord, my pain, my panic attacks, oh I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good I decide to be good, do good, look good Ու դու ինձնից հեռու [You’re so far away from me] Լքված ես հեռու, հեռու ես դու [Left alone, far, far away] Երազումս ես ու դու էինք լուռ [You and I, silent in my dream] Մոլորվում էինք հեռու - հեռու հեռվում [We’re lost, far, far away]
Ppl need to chill out with their interpretation of the lyrics lol, its ok if u like a song, it doesn't have to have deep lyrics its ok guys u can chill
The part about the lyrics begin cheesy is hella accurate, like if she sang in Armenian it would only be cheesy for us, and maybe the rest of the world would like the song. But know it’s a little bit no for me🤦🏻♀️. And i’m actually getting tired of that song, cuz everywhere you go in Armenia it’s this song, even in buses💀💀 And actually Malena’s song was wayyyy more cheesy, and the lyrics didn’t even make sense, like some of it is in old Armenian some of it were modern Armenian, BUT it was only cheesy for us💀💀
This song is perfect, lyrics are wonderful… This is all about Art and Art is not only about academic glossary… So disappointed of this reaction… #Armeniawinner
I love the feel and journey with this song, but the lyrics at times does feel like they got them from google translate. Would love to hear an Armenian version of this song.
You lost me at this reactions but it is your opinion at the end of the day. I don t get all the hate for Brunette for doing what she really wants to do meanwhile other artists get a song written and try to be something they re not😅😂 big cheers to Armenia for letting their upcoming new generation shine and be themselves
