what is the meaning of the song baba o riley
Baba O'Riley Townshend stated in an interview that "'Baba O'Riley' is about the absolute desolation of teenagers at Woodstock, where audience members were strung out on acid and 20 people had brain damage. The irony was that some listeners took the song to be a teenage celebration: 'Teenage Wasteland, yes! We're all wasted!'"[4]
Oh No (Bring Me the Horizon song) In a track-by-track commentary of That's the Spirit for Spotify, Sykes explained that "'Oh No' is meant to be like this anti-dance song ... it's all about people who live for the weekend and people that's [sic] my age, 30 something or older ... still trying to live like [they're] 18 or 21. They're trying hard to have fun they don't even realise that they're probably not even having any".[6] The song also features references to drug addiction.[2][7] The "anti-dance" lyrics are intended to juxtapose the dance-heavy style of the song, which the vocalist added is meant to sound "like something you'd hear in a club".[6] Speaking about the brass section and saxophone solo, Sykes explained that he "wanted this final part of the album to feel like when the lights come on at a club or a bar and you get that slightly shitty song feeling. It's like all good things must come to an end."[6]
