    Hello and welcome to this weird crevasse of the internet where we get really excited about music (particularly Taylor Swift) and break down our favourite albums and songs. Our names are Bonny and Emily, and our aim with these videos is to share our love for music and also share context and understanding around the songs, by highlighting breaking down the lyrics, melodies and production. We are so happy to have created this little community that is just as unhinged as us when it comes to music 🤪

    She is the dog! The bird represents her love. When a dog brings a dead bird to their owner, they see it as a gift or something the owner would be proud of/happy about, but of course the owner is likely to be upset, angry, or even disgusted by it. It’s a metaphor for loving someone more than they love you, someone not wanting your love. When she says “you know the killer doesn’t understand” she means the dog and herself as the killer. The dog doesn’t understand the bird isn’t a gift, like she doesn’t understand they don’t love her back. Also might be a callback to the song Killer from her debut album

      bumping this !! also the lyric before, "if i could give you the moon, i would give you the moon" not only means giving someone *everything*, but also herself - since "phoebe" quite literally means moon. she's insane actually

      @lima_ana Год назад +35

      oh that's pretty interesting! I've been delaying my search for the meaning of this one metaphor of phoebe's, so up until now I had only thought of it as him being the dog, and his love for her would be equivalent to his excitement when he sees a bird, like an uncontrollable animal instinct - but he would end up killing her, so it is in fact tragic

    • @jaychronicmusiclistener
      @jaychronicmusiclistener Год назад +53

      YES. and also adding the fact that pheobe’s name is a definition for a “moon” goddess, and for a type of bird. so she would give herself if she could and she would kill herself (since she is also the dog and the bird) just to love someone. and then ofc her not caring abt killing herself is what she doesn’t understand 😭😭😭

    my favourite thing about Phoebe’s writing is that it is so specific. almost too specific like we will never know the exact context behind each song but it’s written in such a way we can relate to it and it basically forces us to project our own meanings onto each song and i adore that.

    • @chatsandreacts
      @chatsandreacts  Год назад +77

      SOOOO TRUE! there was a lot of lyrics that did seem veryyy specific to an experience she's had, rather than a universal experience, which I think is sooo different and cool

  • @orion8183
    @orion8183 Год назад +349

    graceland too has a lot of context! it's a wish, as well as a love song written about julien baker (who actually sings in the last chorus!)
    she has been in and out of rehab, dealing with her addictions, struggles with faith and general mental health problems. if you know phoebe, you will know that she absolutely adores julien and would do anything for her. the song was specifically written for her in a time where she had relapsed and phoebe wished she could get better (throwback to the line about elvis "wonder if he believed songs could come true")
    lucy dacus and julien baker are the ones who sing in the chorus and actually have written related songs to this one. lucy with her "please stay", which is about her wishing for julien to stay alive. julien responds to both of them with the song "favor"

  • @jonriches4648
    @jonriches4648 Год назад +556

    Some fun facts; moon song is (most probably) about Connor Oberst (the guy who literally sings with her on halloween a few songs before), and ICU is about her ex who she is still good friends with, is her drummer, and actually plays drums on that song (hence why when she says 'I can't even get you to play the drums' the drums stop - bc the person shes adressing is literally playing the drums up until that point lol). Theres so much context needed to full fathom her music I think thats why she appeals so much to swifties,,, theres so much LORE.

    • @jonriches4648
      @jonriches4648 Год назад +51

      ALSO OMD I FORGOT,, Graceland too is highly thought to be about her good friend Julien baker - another phenomenal singer/songwriter who she actually released a project with in the years leading up to this album release (Boygenius). Both Julien and lucy Dacus ( who's also in boygenius) then come in with harmonies towards the end of the song, solidifying that the moments shes talking about at that point were probably a shared experience between the three bandmates.
      on top of this she released an entire album with the previously mentioned Connor Oberst inbetween her first and second album, so him also being featured along with her boygenius bandmates is very much a 'hey its been a while, heres a musical summary of what I've been up to'. The fact that all these musicians are people she's actively talked about admiring also fits very well into the theme of the 'punisher' as well!!

    In Chinese satellite the line ‘you were screaming at the evangelicals’ refers to a fight conor oberst (backing vocals on halloween) had with some religious people protesting against the lgbt community with offensive signs. The line ‘i would stand on the corner embarrassed with a picket sign, if it meant i would see you when i die’ refers to her being willing to do anything, even join in on activities that harm her own community just to see the person she loves again. that song physically hurts me it’s so good.

      also specifically refers back to her desire for belief in something because of the rewards it promises; she's saying that if she can believe in a heaven, she would be the most devout christian possible, that she would be the MOST faithful christian (even going to the point of protesting outside an abortion clinic) for a chance at getting into heaven. she wants desperately to believe, to have faith in something, and if she had any evidence, she would be the first one with a picket sign. goes back to her searching for god at the start of the song and then waiting for aliens at the end. it's another lyric in reference to a higher power, her deep hope that she's not alone.

I was listening to the album, really enjoying it, and suddenly this song started and I was shocked. Just a few notes and it was already my favorite on the record. Loved this video, as always. PS: there's a theory that says that "Phoebe" means moon (because In classical mythology, Phoebe is the by-name of Artemis, goddess of the moon and of hunting) , so when she is saying "I would give you the moon" she means she would give him herself. She's amazing and her songs have infinite layers, I hope you guys do another Phoebe video!

  • @Boyagony

    In the song ‘moon song’ her lyric “if I could give you the moon, I would give you the moon” relates to the fact that the name phoebe means moon, she is saying she would give all of herself to her lover, she would do anything for them. It also implies that she would do anything for them but she can’t because it’s never enough.

    Phoebe is an artist that you have to fathom over time, she is a SONG-WRIIIII-TERRRRRR. I am serious, like a visionary. It grows so hard on you.
    I Know The End is about the end of the world, Phoebe is driving out into the apocalypse and embracing it. It makes me cry so much.
    Moon Song is described like unrequited love. She's in love with Conor Oberst and he's not quite able to give her what she wants. She is accepting anything she can get. He was also married at the time of their relationship (I think he was separated from his wife). He also had a brain tumor so she mentions he's sick, married and might be dying.
    Savior Complex is also about him, and his alcoholism. ICU is about her drummer ex who she is still very close with and he drums in her band and writes songs with her still!
    Love her so much, and I think you guys may even like her debut album Stranger In The Alps even more than Punisher. Much more acoustic.

    For me, the song Savior Complex is about out-manipulating a manipulator. At the beginning, it's "show me yours and I'll show you mine." In the middle, she realizes they're a vampire. That line in the second verse taken as a whole might say, "You want blood, and I promised I'm a bad liar with a savior complex..." But maybe she's not a bad liar after all. As in, she's not as naive as she originally let on. The second chorus is still, "show me yours and I'll show you mine." But by the end, it's just, "show me yours."

    I wish I could like this a million times, I've been waiting for this for so long!!! I am so obsessed with Phoebes music. You could just get lost in the production and vibe of the songs, like Bonny said in the beginning but there's also sooo much meaning behind the lyrics that make the songs hit even harder once you have fathomed them. I love how most of her lyrics are super specific and personal to her (and sometimes so mundane like the 'running around in circles' being about jogging) but the way she phrases things sounds soo profound and you can interpret so much into them. she's a genius imo!!! I hope you react to her first album as well!

    I think « 3 clicks and I’m home » is a reference to The wizard of Oz and the ruby slippers, especially later she says « there’s no place like my room » which is similar to « there’s no place like home »
    And then the tornado line later.

    Phoebe's music is absolutely gorgeous... And if you guys decide to listen to Stranger in the Alps next (her debut album) here's a little warning: "Funeral" is a kick in the guts. I'm not joking, that song *hurts*. It was the first song from Phoebe that I ever heard and it left an impression in me. The lyrics are haunting, the melody is sad... I love it, but it really, really hurts.
    Thanks for the video!

    When Miss Bonny expressed that Moon Song is her favourite song, I was overjoyed.... mine too! And I love how the music composition matches the "thickness' of the mood.. heavy bass and drum drops in some spots, and the scraping of fingers on the guitar strings. I feel it's perfect for the song. Fun video, Bonny and Emily! First time watching

  • @babashart8574

    the girl being talked about in Graceland Too is one of Phoebe’s best friends, Julien Baker. Phoebe has a great relationship with Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, who both can be heard doing vocals on the song. They have an album/ep together called boygenius that i think you would love:)

    The “three clicks and I’m home” lyric in I Know The End is a reference to Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz which also pairs with the “I’m not gonna go down with my hometown in a tornado” lyric later on in the song.
    I have loved this album for months but hadn’t fathomed a lot of the lyrics so I LOVED you guys taking the time to read the lyrics and figuring them out ♥️

I love that they force me to leave my Taylor bubble 🤣 of course there are other artists I listen to and have loved for a long time but I don’t do much discovering new artists these days. So thanks to these girls I SCREAMED when I saw Gracie was my opener, I hope she plays rockland and I miss you, I’m sorry !!!

    1:24:48 Graceland Too is allegedly about an MDMA trip with Julien Baker, a friend of Phoebe and also bandmate in boygenius (which i also recomend a reaction) because of the references to where she lives, her struggle with mental health and stuff like that.

    i haven't even gotten all the way through the intro but omg if you're reacting to the openers, i think gathering a list of paramore song recommendations might be best -- they have 5 albums, 6 by the time they open for taylor, but i don't think it would do them justice to only listen to one album. maybe doing a poll on socials or patreon would help?? also, fun fact: phoebe's band, boygenius, did backing vocals for one of hayley williams's solo songs 2 years ago, so there's a connection there as well
