Everything will flow

Today is Valentine Day for the lovers. Although it should be quite nice a day, it's a bit bitter for me. I am sitting alone at my place, with no lover around. I got a phone call from some marriage-hunting organization, certainly not free. I have to say the caller is really quite good at talk, and i almost agreed to register a VIP at their site. But at last, i held the line. I am not saying that they are doing no good just for the money in my pocket, while i am still doubtful about this activity. Maybe some day, the circumstance is tough enough, i'll call them back.

The gossip is over, let's return back to the song 《Everything will flow》. It's a great song from Suede, a 1990's band from England. The 1990 decade of last century is the best time of Britpop, and suede is undoubtedly one of those greatest bands.

My interpretation of this song might be quite different from others. For the common thinking, the word 'flow' should be literally explained, it means everything will be gone, which is a bit pessimistic. But for my personal point, this song is encouraging. I think the singer was trying to tell us, the bad time will be gone, we should look forward confidently and bravely embrace the future. That is why i paste this song here, i hope it could help me away from the sadness.

The lyric:

Watch the early morning sun
Drip like blood from the day
See the crazy people run
So many games to play
See the blue suburban dream
Under the jet plane sky
Sleep away and dream a dream
Life is just a lullaby

Ah Ah Ah
And everything will flow

Watch the day begin again
Whispering into the night
See the crazy people play
Hurrying under the light
A million cars, a million trains
Under the jet plane sky
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Life is just a lullaby

Ah Ah Ah
And everything will flow

The neon lights in the night tonight will say
Everything will flow
The stars that shine in the open sky will say
Everything will flow
The lovers kissed with an openness will say
Everything will flow
The cars parked in the hypermarket know
Everything will flow
