My ex introduced me to this song and she always told me that ivy would make me cry one day. now i sit here crying missing her even tho she hurt me. i still wish we could restart but i do deserve better.

[@jacobpelletier1243]

It's really interesting to see that your dad said White Ferrari sounded like The Beatles right as it started, and Frank interpolates them in that song. Goes to show how influenced he is by them

[@pinkfloyd873]

Wait which part is interpolated from the Beatles?

[@quiettraveller3287]

I always thought the bull and the matador dueling line was a metaphor for Franks heart dueling with his mind. Never even connected it with him being high, that’s dope

[@ashton7457]

pun intended?

[@TheMatt_SD]

Isn't it referencing a constellation?

[@hfjemini5]

I look at it as him getting high is him being a matador, dealing with his bull(shit)

[@davidjackson4462]

Your dad has great ears. He picked up on the close to you sample, but also heard the Beatles in White Ferrari, Frank also sampled them in Siegfried and this album had a lot of influence from them.

[@sardine_man]

One intresting fact about this album is that it is exactly 1 hour long, and the beat switch in nights is exactly 30 minutes in, since the song is called nights I think it represents going from day to night

[@jayden2413]

its actually about him ageing and the negatives about it, in the first half he has high pitched vocals, he talks about summer which basically stands for fun

[@JuJu-qw1dc]

@@jayden2413actually this album is about sexuality, the double name blonde/blond is the masculine/feminine versions. the song nights is the mid point of the album and the beat switch in the middle is also the switch from franks feminine side to his masculine side.

Stevie did a version of Close To You with the vocoder and Frank fell in love with that version actually. It’d be an interesting watch for you and your pops.

[@sivemdlalose9636]

They sampled that at the end. Also Frank has an extended version of Close To You from his 2017 live sets that more closely mimics what Stevie did which was basically a Medley of Never Can Say Goodbye by the Jackson 5 and Close To You by The Carpenters
