In Grid - Oui
Tu m'as dit oui que tu vas m'epouser
Tu m'as dit oui, ton amour est vrai
Mais tu sors avec des femmes
Et rentre avec leur parfum
About a guy who says he wants to marry his chick, but goes out with girls and comes back with their scent on him.
I think this song is a nice example of a weirdly combined beat and lyrics. If I only judge the music, I think of it as a typical summer song (which it is in fact), but when you see the lyrics the atmosphere is quite different, a bit darker and sad. This is the only song by In Grid I know, I guess she was just a typical one day fly, maybe she had some more hits in France, or maybe I haven't noticed her before or after.

I love you
Atmosphere - Don't ever f-cking question that
[I love you]
Enough to hold you to the brightest of lights,
to place you dangerously close to that sun,
enough to acknowledge the flaws you can't ignore
and recognize the cause of what's done is done,
more than enough to put my name behind my ideals,
and neglect my logic twice daily.
enough to keep me looking for my Lucy in the sky with gems,
when I remember how you used to call me baby,
enough to look in my mirror with detest
for every tear you shed regardless of why you wept,
enough to curse any man who can't appreciate the depth
of the ocean I swam till I ran out of breath.
This song confuses me big time. This song describes how I feel a little bit, but it's a bit inconsistent in my opinion. For instance: more than enough to put my name behind my ideals, and neglect my logic twice daily really appeals to me, I tend to lose my logic in relationships and just show how I feel and stuff. I have been hurt, but I loved him too much to acknowledge that he really meant things, and that he wasn't willing to change. But. Enough to keep me looking for my Lucy in the sky with gems is a sentence I really don't get. it's changed from Lucy in the sky with diamonds, from the Beatles, apparently they referred to drugs, but to me it doesn't seem like they're doing that. Something to think about for me.
Nice song though, I love how the aggression shines through so obviously in Atmosphere's songs, it makes me feel like working out.
