#being besotted with her to the point they're likening her to an angel and hardly able to believe their luck

I love learning something and understanding a reference in a song lyric I hadn't realised was a reference at all.
ohhh. so that's what "somewhere, they're meeting on a pinhead, calling you an angel, calling you the nicest things" means.
#I'm sure is obvious but I've personally never heard it before. (fake edit: I just Now checked the interpretations tab on tmbw and. yeah lol)#considering the song seems to be about a person catastrophising over falling in love and the insecurity/denial it brings#being besotted with her to the point they're likening her to an angel and hardly able to believe their luck#because ''these things happen to other people. they don't happen at all in fact.''#then I wonder if this part is meant to mean she's having the exact same crisis to her peers unbeknownst to them#and these arguments with themselves are entirely pointless.#or maybe the song's through a lens of ''love. silly innit''#a self awareness that it becomes the consuming centre of your universe over all else happening in the world. irrational worries included.#OR does it mean the narrator thinks the idea that she could be feeling the same way about them#and saying nice things to others is as ludicrous as the debated scenario.
