1. Time to Pretend - initially, seems like a song that talks about the boredom of the world and wants to get away and live lives of sex and drugs. as the song progresses, it talks of the true wanting: their childhood and life before their tedious life working at a 9 to 5 job. the outcome of their glam-filled lives, or boring lives too will be mediocre, and this was their 'time to pretend' after childhood; they were fated to pretend, couldn't escape it. song in general sounds super cool! 4/5 2. Weekend Wars - i don't really get it. i think they're bored? and what they may do to pass the time? no idea sounds pretty cool though! but a 2.5/5, not going in my playlist 3. The Youth - gorgeous gorgeous song. talks of the change in youth, the transition between growing up and staying kids. this is expressed more in the music, with an obvious shift in tone. 5/5, going in my playlist 4. Electric Feel - some girl whose charisma is very electric. 2/5 5. Kids - speaks of the give-and-take in the dynamic of a family. the importance of making decisions, and the stage of being an infant; a toddler. sounds pretty cool. 3.5/5 6. 4th Dimensional Transition - i don't get it. i don't like it. 1/5 7. Pieces of What - i don't know either. sounds alright, very country-esque. 2/5 8. Of Moons, Birds & Monsters - exactly what the title says. interesting song. not going in my playlist though. 3/5 9. The Handshake - i think its about power politics, of signing a deal and not letting yourself get caught up in the power struggle between people. about being ignorant and in denial of being used, and not forgetting your roots. sounds pretty cool. 3.5/5 10. Future Reflections - nooo idea what this is about, very philosophical and vague. i feel like if i got this i'd be/sound super cool or something. sounds cool though! not going in my playlist 4/5 what's going in my playlist? 1. The Youth my rating? - solid 3/5
