Lyrics: "Flying Model Rockets"
Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine
I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side
My brother's friend explains to me with breathless words and bloody knees
It's a black eyed trust, respect with pain.
A love I'll learn when I've been through the same.
But there's nothing in California that you could not learn to hate here
The questions will all still be waiting for you, the answers will only be less clear
It's hard to say what I would do if I was back a year or two
Look at our plans, try to understand what could have happened to all of them.
Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine
I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side
My brother's friend explains to me with breathless words and bloody knees
It's a black eyed trust, respect with pain.
A love I'll learn when I've been through the same.
all his songs sound similar, but in a good way
no
@@adduty8850 kind of
i understand that and i agree
Hello Mr. McCartney lol
It's a vibe lol
Heard them first when I was 16 I turned 22 today and still bumping
My girlfriend showed them to me about 4 years ago. They are one of the few bands I feel gets me.
24 now and back here to my comment again 👍
Same, now I'm 23 almost 24

@@MatheusDeLimaDilima you're on the right path😇
i love how his voice has this tinge of sass
I’ve only known this band for a few days and they already mean a whole lot to me. I love finding music with genuine emotion like this.
I've been trying to figure out what this song means for a while now
It starts out as kids in their home neighborhood, doing something innocent like flying model planes. His brother's (seemingly older) friend tells him that it's okay for love to hurt and he just doesn't understand yet. It sounds like this friend is being abused by someone they love. The singer grows up and learns that the world is a lot more complicated and painful than flying model planes. Someone else tries to escape their dysfunctional upbringing by moving to out west, but the singer is jaded and thinks their problems will just follow them to California because it's not something wrong with the east coast but with the person. But he can't provide a better solution and wonders if he could have stopped things from turning out so badly or if that's just how life is.
I'm not sure about the phone call, but I think it might represent the brother's friend or someone like them trying to reach out for help because part of them knows love isn't supposed to hurt them like this, but they can't find the words. This character might be the same one who runs to California when they are older. By the end of the song, the singer has experienced destructive love and misses when things were simpler.
stfu
Really interesting analysis. I agree that that could be the meaning.
ApexHobo You’re an actual piece of shit.
@@yobo5939 damn why does everyone gotta be so goddamn mean
@@yobo5939 I dont like you
The first time I listened to TFB was when I brought "Rose" from a record shop because I recalled the name, I have no regrets and am so glad I did, i love this band so much. I no longer have that CD I gave it to my friend and miss it but it made her happy so it works out

I love the part when it goes like "Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine. I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side.

Answers will only be less clear. It's hard to say what I would do if I was back a year or two. Look at our plans try to understand what could've happened to all of them. To all of them. Oh, to all of them. Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side.

this band is so amazing. i can listen to their album all day

Weekend
God I love The Front Bottoms so much

Please fall asleep so i can take pictures of you and hang them in my room so when i wake i'll feel like yeah everythings alright. I love you guysss so much
+saaallyyy tfb got a flashlight?
No but i got a dog whistle.
+saaallyyy tfb Huh, I hear one from my bedroom...
I got the last 3 emails
The ones where you said I was sorting some things out
This song means an awful lot to me, heard it early 2015 and it's stuck with me ever since. Reminds me of what I've lost but also makes me grateful for where I am now.
Don't let this song die.
there's something soo soothing about this song, it starts off sweet and slow, makes me feel like im just chilling in my bedroom alone, maybe smoking, while my led room lights are on, color purple. Been listening to The front bottoms for like 3 years more or less, they never fail to calm me down and make me feel at home
it’s been years and i still have no idea what this song is about but i still love it
I dont know if theres a better song that this written in the past 5 years.
the rose ep is honestly still my favorite to this day. years after discovering tfb and i still love every track on here. theyre just so comforting to me in a weird way
This song puts all of the horrible memories i have to a sounftrack and i love that.
this song feels like leaving
i dont like having a "favorite song" because i feel like 1 isn't enough, but if i had to choose, i think it'd certainly be this one.
Idk why TFB don't have more followers. They deserve more recognition.
I started listening to this since I was 9...
#bestband can't defeat it
Love them
this band helps me get through so much. they let me know that life is fucked up for everyone and we're all just trying to get through it.
This came into my head today ive really havent felt so lonely and this song makes me less alone it gives me pictures of a dreamers life i needed this today
There's nothing in California that you could not learn to hate here.
What does that mean?
Nevermind lol
More strip malls and sorry people
hey it’s better thaN FUCKING ARIZONA JESUS ITS HOT
This is why I came here
First heard this song at work so glad I found it so good
Where do you work ???!! That would be fuckin amazing to play tfb at my workplace
Hey! Remeber this great song?
This band is what life feels like to me 🥑🍍🎈🤗
I think it's 15th time in a row when I listen to this song today, I can't stop vibing.

zajebista!!!
art
Whattt a niceee songg
THIS SONG😞😞
Okay, here is one from Rose I actually like less than the original. But STILL more TFB! I love them so much.
I LOVE THIS BAND OMG THEIR GREAT. I WANT THEM TO STAY SMALL
They signed to a label like two albums ago and have blown up, this ep was a re release of another album they recorded years before.
This didn't age nicely
“i hope these guys dont get the recognition they deserve just so i can have bragging rights”
All i do is smoke weed to this song in my backyard & god what a great vibe
THIS FUCKING SONG I CAN'T EVEN DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I FUCKING LOVE IT SO MUCH OMG
there’s nothing in california that you can’t learn to hate here
has anyone seen a tab for the little riff in between verses and chorus i desperately need it help
Nope but I'm sire some guy has done a cover about his name is sugarpill covers if you can find him and the song you can try to follow
THE FRONT BOTTOMS!!!!!
Very "Regional at best" vibe
the begining sounds like anathema by tøp
Its wierd Ive been getting these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side, anyone else?
raepists
this song sounds like november
Look up Justin and the juice tones
Please let me come see you in brigton mass tomorrow
Este es el unico comentario en castellañi q encontraras
Fireworks season 2021 who else is still here?
Drunk. Alone. Sad..
I'm going to the moon with this song
still have no idea what this song means someone please explain
It's about nostalgia and how things don't go as planned specifically with a girl
+Chrisbfilms His brother's friend explains to him that love is about black eyes and bloody knees (Copping an emotional beating from time to time) and he'll understand when he falls in love as well. The rest of the song is about lamenting expectations being less grandiose than.. Expected.
I could be wrong but I think it’s about some of his childhood memories (like flying model rockets with his brother and his brothers friend) his brothers friend has bruises and bloody knees from being hurt by his older brother and he tells the singer that his brother hits him bc of their brotherly bond and that the singer won’t understand until he’s experienced the same kind of love
this song is like heroin lmao
true
Naullie gross
Iris Swerve yum
so real
Man this band sucks... I fucking love them
#George Meucci +saaallyyy tfb Huh, I hear one from my bedroom... @David Hernandez
