Idk man I really vibe with why you no love me. Oddly enough, it’s come out to be one of my favorites on the album. I justified the lyrics by thinking about it like this. Follow me here: if you’re on a desert island, and you NEED to survive, your first thought isn’t to get a 4 course meal, your first thought is just to get food and water. Enough to survive. If John needs love from this girl that he’s singing about, but can’t get it, in my eyes it puts him in a sort of primitive state where his thoughts just sort of bypass grammar and do only enough for it to be a semi-rational thought. Idk, I could also just be buggin out. I’m a sucker for those harmonies in the chorus though. Anyway, those are my thoughts, I get it though, the vibe from the get-go is pretty weird.
Except I don't think emoji of a wave is even half as divisive. The most divisive part of the song is the title, and he never says it in the song itself. Why you no love me on the other hand is kinda hard to avoid with how much it repeats it so naturally it's going to be a lot more polarising. I personally like it, but that's moreso based on the strengths of the rest of the song, I've kinda gotten past the chorus now.
No emoji of a wave is one of the best songs on TSFE. Those harmonies by the beach boys, the message, the vibe. Doesn't compare at all. Emoji is an excellent song.
Dude I feel like we could totally vibe together to this whole album, I felt almost the exact same stuff on each song as you were feeling. Have you seen the Shot In The Dark music video already? That makes that song even better
Yeah, finally someone said it. "Why you no love me" is by far my least favorite and english is not my first language but it is so awkward anyways. On the other hand, I love Wild Blue and Shouldnt matter but it does so much. Till the right one comes has grown on me over the days. And idk "I guess i just feel like" still makes me cry even after all these years. I loved your reaction.
Great stuff!! My reaction video to this album just got blocked! How do you avoid this? Is it the way you trim the song and have the volume of the song lower?
Not sure, mate. I tried to only use times when I spoke or reacted to the music. I tried not to leave too many moments where the music was just playing and me listening.
