Love this video Omg . Chubbypumpers is always so good

[@3ggyt0ast]

The latter half of the song takes on a different feeling for me... The key of the song and the gushing romantic words of the beginning make this sound like a love ballad, but i almost feel like this is a love song about creativity. "You see now that nothing is final." The perfectionism that can often present with highly creative people can be paralyzing, but here this sounds like a surrender to the process of accepting that nothing is ever fully complete. "You see how i make you smile..." What can be frustrating for our neurotic need to see things to completion is what makes music and other art beautiful. "I cut myself into vinyl." Look i even put it out on a record and i can still work on it and change it. "You put your foot down and i run wild" You give me boxes and parameters, and i'm going to run away with them and lean into the unknown. and have fun doing it too.
