OMG- YOUR PFP- HOUNDS OF LOVE IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ALBUMS.... well... so are all of kate bush's albums before the red shoes (not the dreaming though)..... and so are all of allie x's other albums- 😑
Love how when she repeats “was the life” it sounds like shes saying “lost a life” implying that she left a piece of herself at this party after something bad happened that she cannot recall or that she spends her life going to these unfulfilling parties that leave her feeling empty afterward. The pure anxiety that the music invokes through its upbeat repetitiveness is so hard hitting. Very dark!
Your interpretation is interesting! Since it come out, I always understood that it was meant to sound like "I was ALIVE"... like I she was alive in a sense that is not even real and she doesn't want to forger it, so alive that you black out and don't even remember anything.
Just so yall know, this isn't just a random upbeat party song (although it's fine if you interpret it that way). According to Allie, this song is about forcing yourself to do insane things just to feel like you fit in but in reality, u don't know if you're in on the joke or if you ARE the joke. There's even implied sexual assault. 'They stripped me down like a barbie,' 'they say I kissed the king but I don't remember anything,' 'a moldy double-double , he scratched my face with stubble, I woke up on the shuttle,' and 'Remnants of them still inside, I'll remember this forever.' These are the darkest lyrics on any Allie X song, but if you're looking for a REAL fun and upbeat party song, listen to Super Duper Party People
I vividly remember the first time I heard this song, when I dead stopped folding my laundry and had to replay the song about ten times because it hit such a chord in me.
"I'll never forget, I wanna forget" Fuck that part. I felt the frustration there. An upbeat songbcoming from a dark place in life. THIS SHOULD BE LISTENED TO Y'ALL!
Damn beautiful song, but these lyrics hurt “Even when I nodded out, I was center of the action” “They stripped me down like a Barbie” “They say I kissed the king, But I don't remember anything” “Remnants of them still inside” “He scratched my face with stubble, I woke up on the shuttle”
THIS. This is the song that shakes me to my core and describes every interaction I ever had at a party. A panic attack at my birthday, an assault on a random dinner night, every single performance I've given, I was being my true self, I let them all see me as I am, yet they're still laughing at me. Or is it with me? I don't even care, I'll take ANYTHING to make myself less alone. I'll be a goddess you can't take your eyes off, I'll be your party clown, your stripper, your piece of meat with a hole, I don't even know you but it's okay, we're all friends now, this night has welded us together, hasn't it? That's how things are for me now. I either leave an impression or they leave theirs on me, but this will make me trascend my own abscense, this is a form of immortality, right..?
This is one of the most honest songs I've heard. So dark so blind in the moment, for me the repetition of 'the life' makes me think of ritual sacrifice of innocence.
When she goes like: "I was the life, I was the life, I was the life" I can't help but hear "saliva, saliva, saliva" ㅠㅡㅠ I'm a foreigner so my mind wants to fool me
A few points.. 1. NOBODY is doing it like Allie X 2. This is one of my favorite song she has ever released. I picked up on the message first listen, I love it so much. 3. The VISUALS. ARE YOU KIDDING? The execution is 15/10.
I think she mentioned in the song explanation that yeah there is an implied sexual assault. This song, in general, is about the complicated feelings that come with being at a party where everyone judges, mistreats, and treats you like a toy. You may feel excited that you're getting the attention while being hurt by everyone's actions.
Honestly that could be one of the intentions, look at her instagram, she talks about the song, and I think that could be an implied subject, but its definitely about being not respected at a party.
this song sounds so beautiful omg and so amazing!! Because of the way you described this song on your Instagram is the main reason why I wanted to hear it and now that I did I'm not only impressed but pleased and surprised! its so brilliant and unique I love it!!!! 💕💕💕💕
Allie confirmed there’s some inspiration from The Cure. Would be great to hear some allie x and the cure mashups of Life of The Party with Lovecats, Learning in Public with Close To Me!
Uma das minhas favoritas do album. Essa musica tem camadas. Eu conssigo sentir um amargo na boca ouvindo o refrão, por conta da senssaçao de q algo animado esta acontecendo mas eu seria o unico a nao estar feliz. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I really love her, i remember listening to her on my other mobile and im freaking out because after my phone broke i realized i have no account on my YT that time took me a month to find her again.
Cape God's visuals are insane, nobody's doing it like her
She's a real artist

@@cleo5610 was literally going to say the same thing. Allie X fans have great taste
I wanna live in that cold cloudy world
@@cleo5610 the dreaming is my fave kate bush album
Definitely her darkest song in my opinion. Truly a masterpiece!
allie said herself that she thinks this is one of if not her most darkest song she has released!
@@rachetro390 Yeah. I totally am on board with that!
this song is heartbreaking
Bitch or Simon says have heavier darker, more creepy vibes. But lyric is kinda dark I agree

She gets it
I hear, rose to life after a while
I hear forced to life with the same intent behind what you’re saying.

I don't think anyone thinks this is an upbeat party song...
@@chaeriplease cool
@@chaeriplease Exactly, this is kinda obvious
I agree with your second point more then the first, because it seems to be alluding to trama and not social conformity/Social pressure
@@ChadIsYourDadlol allie said all those things herself tho on her instagram
She is the only singer that i can hear over and over without geting tired
yesss! poppy, grimes and queen x
@@karlostouro omg I listen to all of those unironically
I believe you. Having said that, do check AURORA
#eflsessions
@@vincentcarrot i know her to. She is great ^-^
I vividly remember the first time I heard this song, when I dead stopped folding my laundry and had to replay the song about ten times because it hit such a chord in me.
this song gives me goosebumps. it's so visceral and frenetic that kinda scares me. points to allie
This song never fails to make me emotional or just straight up cry, it hits hard, in an emotional release sort of way
the fact this didn't get nominated for a grammy is SICKENING. Allie deserves better
You said it
Honestly my favorite song off the album. An instant bop that has a whole new meaning when you pay attention to the lyrics. Thank you Allie X
she showed us the dark side of parties, God!
"I'll never forget, I wanna forget"
Fuck that part. I felt the frustration there.
An upbeat songbcoming from a dark place in life.
THIS SHOULD BE LISTENED TO Y'ALL!
Big feels here
scary how shes in a swamp. seems like where her body was dumped after being the life of the party. 😟
Rahhh that’s deep!
Oof
That's some "I spit on your grave" type shit right there
She says in the song that she woke up in a shuttle
damnnn
This song gave me chills and blew my mind the first time I heard it
As an introvert who gets really social when drunk, I relate so much to this. My fav from the album
same
the song is a lot darker than being social when drunk lmao
Be careful please because that’s EXACTLY how I became addicted to drinking
Damn beautiful song, but these lyrics hurt
“Even when I nodded out,
I was center of the action”
“They stripped me down like a Barbie”
“They say I kissed the king,
But I don't remember anything”
“Remnants of them still inside”
“He scratched my face with stubble,
I woke up on the shuttle”
Allie thank you for serving us with bops during quarantine 🥺 hardworking queen we love you
this is pure leo things 😭
I was really feeling the cape god energy today and now i know why
i was literally questioning why there wasnt a lyric video for this gem.... see im telling you i have the mind of a masterm-

Love the apparent cheeriness of the beat acompanied by the grimm visuals, i just love all aspects of Allie's work
I BELIEVE IN LIFE OF THE PARTY SUPREMACY 💚💚💚
When you performed this at the Cape God Digital concert I lost my scalp
I think LotP is the underdog of the album.
Cheery and catchy rhythm with darkest lyrics.
This album is so good
Allie you never fail to have me in awe of your storytelling
This is such a sad and touching song. Beautiful
WE NEED A MUSIC VIDEO
Oooh yes
idk bout that one.
@@Djoodibooti why not tho
She’s finally here omg
Solo una palabra: Arte.
This is one of the most honest songs I've heard. So dark so blind in the moment, for me the repetition of 'the life' makes me think of ritual sacrifice of innocence.
SHE. IS. NOT. SPINNING.
shocked and upset
Her thoughts are
so?
It’s no big deal
Surprise pikachu face
Duality
CAPE GOD ERA IS ALIVE
This song hit hard should be a top ten on the charts
How can all of her songs be such bops.
my favorite from Cape God i think, an eternal bop
Cape God is a masterpiece ❣️❣️
Well, I’m still waiting for the Love me wrong video. Love this tune btw.🔥

Words cannot explain how much i love Cape God visuals omg. So good! Amazing as always, Allie. 🖤

This is next level.

Another masterpiece from the queen! Will be streaming this for weeks straight. Love it!
When she goes like: "I was the life, I was the life, I was the life" I can't help but hear "saliva, saliva, saliva" ㅠㅡㅠ
I'm a foreigner so my mind wants to fool me
s a m e since day 1
YOU RUINED IT FOR ME 😭😭 im not mad take it as a joke please lol
That made me giggle 😆
Glad I'm not the only one hearing it now haha
allie always doing great songs
i just decided to listen to these songs today, they are so good.
A few points..

Is no one gunna talk about how the lyrics make it sound like a rape happened or..?

Yeah I defs think that’s one of the major ways of interpreting it
@@amandahunt3197 Yeah I did look on google if she posted an explanation for the song but couldn't find one
Honestly that could be one of the intentions, look at her instagram, she talks about the song, and I think that could be an implied subject, but its definitely about being not respected at a party.
@@ClaytonGoldhawk check her Instagram she wrote a long thing about it
i love this song from the bible 😍
this song sounds so beautiful omg and so amazing!! Because of the way you described this song on your Instagram is the main reason why I wanted to hear it and now that I did I'm not only impressed but pleased and surprised! its so brilliant and unique I love it!!!! 💕💕💕💕

Mulher, queremos um novo álbum para este ano
If you want to know more about the song, she recently posted a run down of the inspiration on a instagram post.
the contrast between the lyrics and the video is quite interesting
this song made my head bop with a serious straight face
Aaaaaaag I'd been waiting for this for some reason! And the video matches the song perfectly!! Especially the chorus and the bridge (?)/outro
love this so much!

I was listening to this in the car with my fiancé and he said she sounds like a skipping CD. I can’t unhear it now
We need a music video of this.
This sounds like something Aaliyah would sing dark and edgy i can hear both of them on this track with their soft vocals
I love this!!!!!❤❤
SHE'S BACKKK FOR THE PARTYYYYY 😍😍😍
:3
Omfg this is so good 🔥💚
Allie you are amazing!
TH-cam’s being bold not giving me the notification for this
amo voce, eterna girl of the year
she stoped spinning 🥺
Beautiful song
Esperaba tanto el lyric de la canción que creí que no lo publicaría wowowowowow puro arte
No one:
Me thinking it's gonna be a real clip or film
Allie, we just wanted to say, thank you so so much for feeding the gays with the content we craving for.
She back with visualizers 🤩
Makes me want to dance and also makes me sad lol, relate to this on a specifically awful memory
I really love her, i remember listening to her on my other mobile and im freaking out because after my phone broke i realized i have no account on my YT that time took me a month to find her again.
Thanks for that Allie!
Wow incredible and so unexpected 😻
lovely!! ILYSM ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
pov : you came to the party very early.
Yeeeees 💙💙
This is the after math of super duper party troopers
I Love so much, ave mary
