#yk loml is about lotr

[bluewinnerangel]

In your opinion, what do you think each song in harry's house is about?

Music For A Sushi Restaurant: music (industry). I love music! And making it my way! Especially!

Late Night Talking: when harry is away from louis.

Grapejuice: alcoholism. asdkjafh ok more nuanced I'd say either about love by using alcohol dependence analogies, or the other way around, or why not both. Or simply just his love for red wine.

As It Was: change, in short. I think he has explained it himself well (for a change lol)

Daylight: when louis is away from harry.

Little Freak: harry (she 2.0). I think there's some lines in there that are about other things, other people, but overall I think the "you" is Harry. I'm also getting Joni Mitchell with this one again but that's not really a well formed thought yet.

Matilda: this one is hard for me to put into words. Its for everyone who needs it. It's about trauma, everything he's said. It being coated in being addressed to Roald Dahl's Matilda as a grownup is beautiful, but I also think he's tried to insinuate that the person he had on his mind when writing is no longer with us and I don't see this talked about and I'm not super comfortable putting that thought out there but it is what I think it is about... When he's said they don't know it's for them, and talked about it on Zane Lowe, he looked up a lot, and then talked about losing people to suicide. So yeah, I think it's written about someone who will never hear it, but is for everyone who can.

Cinema: They parked the floating dumpsterfire on this track but I don't think it's the main focus. It could still be about holivia but shady. You can read this as being about affection and intimacy, as both new relationship feels as domestic Netflix and chilling. But because he said he wrote it on a treadmill.. maybe it's just him describing the rich people rooms in his house and what he does in them like: I got a home cinema, this is where I work out, where I dance, I get wet in the shower, I don't have a roof on the drive, I also sleep here, welcome to my crib.

Daydreaming: Okay I'm reading this 2 ways: 1) also She 2.0, from the perspective of She, and 2) snuggled up with cinema as a passive aggressive these stunts are stupid jab lol. daydream = fake, night = real, gimme all of ur love (presence, so we got pics and stuff) now so theres something to dream about for the gp and then im gonna be gone for so long bc lol bye. Again, maybe both.

Keep Driving: live laugh and especially love in a pandemic. I also think his stories about taking a drive to Italy in (summer? Fall?) 2020 in his late step-dads car aren't unrelated. Also just stinks of longterm love a lot. A lot of them do.

Satellite: fame? It ties in with his words about being "up there" and not being there forever etc for me, as well as older songs that for me revolve around that (with 1D times as well). But it can also be put next to Defenceless for instance (have you put Harry's House next to Walls yet, i mean track by track all lined up, there's a bunch of dumbass parallels there istg), and if you read both as simply being about each other it makes sense for me too. But if you read both as being about being loved, being seen, being accepted, not necessarily by a partner but by the public, being "up there" or not, it makes sense to me too. Again, why not both.

Boyfriends: Ok so the last bit (Boyfriends, are they just pretending? They don't tеll you where it's heading and you know thе game's never ending) I fully see how you can read that the same as the rest, as men are trash, basically, but this is so so so so perfectly fitting in what I think larry is and has been doing and how they view themselves (play Mind Games by John Lennon, they keep on playing these mind games together, faith in the future, amirite.) And perhaps the rest was written to fit around this bit.. that the concept of shitty bfs spawned from how you can interpret the lines he wanted to have in a song like that, and in the end dedicated to anyone who can relate in whichever role they have(n't) been in in relation to boyfriends.

Love Of My Life: home (inc location, partner, privacy, anonymity)

It's not been long and I'll probably change my mind about some of these later. I also think there might be more than a few that are written with specific movie inspirations, with obviously Matilda being one, and I guess we can count DWD with Cinema, but I'm expecting to get a light bulb moment with My Policeman at some point too. Then there's The Matrix and we're joking about LOTR now. In his previous albums I think to see at least The Notebook and Brokeback Mountain, so yeah I might just be coming back with an essay about how it's all about Mean Girls yk. We'll see.
