  • Boston Manor turn in an emotional gut-wrencher of a performance with an acoustic rendering of their instant emo classic, "Laika."
    The British pop-punks recently visited our offices and serenaded us through the work day with their charming brand of catchy songs that are as sweet as they are sad.

    He says its not about the dog.. hes just comparing the loneliness to laika. “As lonely as laika...”

    this is a legitimately perfect emo song. The composition, the melody, the hook, a bridge with a second singer, the harmonies. Its incredible.

      Dayana Hernandez - Honestly whenever it comes up as I’m listening to Be Nothing, I just get bored pretty easily. The other tracks are literally so raw but this one feels too poppy, ion know

    "it's not about a dog , contrary to belief"

  • @baileyanne271

    I thought in the song that you got so lonely you had compared that loneliness to the loneliness of the dog that died up in space

    Verse 1]
    They say the truth’s your best defence
    I'm bleeding just to pay the rent
    And broken dreams mean nothing
    When you need something
    Just to get you through the year
    [Verse 2]
    And now we’re moving out
    So pack your clothes, your books, your doubt
    And bring that piece of paper
    That I gave you, back when you were all alone
    Letters sent home with no return address
    I’ve got a bag full of old clothes
    I’ve got a bag full of stress
    [Chorus]
    I’m so sorry that I’m leaving
    You're so little to believe in
    [Verse 3]
    Cause we had a house
    With a perfect door and a front room
    With the right decor
    And I came and wrecked it all
    I came and wrecked it all like I always do
    Cause I didn’t think and I poured your life down the kitchen sink
    With the dregs of yesterday
    And now I’m going to be late
    I’m sorry
    [Chorus]
    I’m so sorry that I’m leaving
    You're so little to believe in
    Just tell me, that you’re free, of your woes and of me
    There’s weather more reliable than me
    [Bridge]
    I’m calling base command as the last bit of oxygen runs out but
    They’re down there softly sleeping
    The sun sets over the Pacific region
    I’m sitting here hanging in the balance
    Just barely in the atmosphere
    I’m sitting here hanging in the balance
    Just barely in the atmosphere
    [Chorus]
    I’m so sorry that I’m leaving
    You're so little to believe in
    Just tell me, that you’re free, of your woes and of me
    There’s weather more reliable than me
    [Outro]
    As lonely as Laika
    Up there all alone
    You miss the atmosphere
    The stars are now your home

    Shouldn't pull away from the mic because his voice is excellent.

    The instrumentals are far too loud as compared to his voice. I wish I could hear him louder :(

    • @Oldsweddyballs
      @Oldsweddyballs 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, only references it. I thought it was pretty obvious tbh.

  • @DschungelKatze
    @DschungelKatze 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Well isn't it obvious that the song is not about a dog? They just compare the feelings of the person in the song to what Laika probably felt.

    The Fender over powered the acoustic, my doggies. Sounded harsh at times. However I enjoyed the song!

    Would've blended better if both were acoustic guitars. Sounded kinda awkward

    if it's not about the dog then what is it about?

    • @AshlynEstevez
      @AshlynEstevez 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's about feeling distant and lost when you're alone (I'm pretty sure)

    I don't think the meaning of the song is that mysterious. Just the fucking video that confuses me to death.
