I decided to share this song because of the really
interesting effects used to fit the sound with the lyrics. One thing I really
like about the song is the echo of the vocals that sets the mysterious mood. A
couple times during the song, just a small part of the chorus is played before
the song goes back to the instrumental part. Many songs have lyrics with
unclear meaning, but the mystery of these lyrics is especially fitting because
the song is about ghosts. The lyrics immediately raise questions: Why is it
dangerous to leave the ghosts behind? What do the lines “You won’t hold my hand anymore / So what are we fighting for” have
to do with the rest of the song? It’s also very interesting that the background
music is rather upbeat. The contrast between that and the vocals make the song
even eerier.
I thought of an idea about what the song could be about that
I think fit with most of the aspects of the song. I think the song is about two
people that have serious conflict between them that they try to ignore. The
instrumental parts of the song would represent the time when the people tried
to ignore their problems, and life seems happy. When the singing comes in again
and the song sounds creepy, that represents when the two people have to face
their problems again.
