It only suggests minimally. Maybe it makes more sense in the contextnof the full album which fine. But as a single? It doesnt really say anything on its own. It should be a deepcut I do agree that it doesn't function as a single. I usually adore her single choices, but I feel like this album will be the exception. My biggest problem with Chemtrails as a single (it doesn't affect my love for it as a song, though) is, as someone very brightly said when it came out, it's the lack of space it seems to have? I mean, it's the title track, and has the most evocative title, yet the physical space in the song (in this case, the country club) is very limited -- the country club itself, a coffee store at the elementary school, Brentwood Market, and that's pretty much it. That makes me believe it'll work better as an album track. 6

Still good, but let's not pretend like this is her most intricate work to date because she says "contemplating God under the chemtrails over the country club" and also waxes poetics about zodiac signs. No tea no shade, I like you, but you'll never see things how I see things, and i'll never see things how you see things outside of Ultraviolence. Still a great member, but let's not pretend that either of us quoting each other will not fall on deaf ears. It's nice that you feel like I care, but I don't feel the need to mention you every time I disagree with you "You can't be a muse and be happy, too. You can't blacken the pages with Russian poetry and be happy." - Blue Banisters Quote I asked Asmodeus (the demon of lust) to make Miley Cyrus suffer. I am not happy with these new developments. After Miley rips off Lana's aesthetic, she bullies Lana into changing her release date. It is infuriating.

PARADIXO Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 4 minutes ago, ItsaWhale89 said: Eh you're kind of correct. 'woman' is not the subject in either interpretation. She uses 'like a woman' as a simile to describe the rest of the line. The subject will always be 'me' and the object will always be 'you' because she is doing the action, while he is being affected by the action. This also applies for 'like a baby'. You are actually arguing whether 'me', or 'you' is being described by the simile 'like a baby'. Although they're both technically grammatically correct, I personally think it makes more sense for her lover to be the 'baby'. This song is different from her earlier music because she compares herself to a woman. Before, she usually called herself a girl. She tells her lover here that she wants to love him like she is an adult. I don't think she would try and compare herself to a grown woman and a baby within two lines. In my opinion she's trying to sound maternal and caring. Also, it kind of makes more sense because you hold and care for a baby. Babies don't really hold people lol. Intellectuals ONLY

I think you either love COCC or hate it. It's that kind of a track. I simply LOVE it. It's not a complex song / melody, but there's something about that simplicity that makes it sophisticated. And I'm obsessed with the second half of the instrumental, when it starts growing and becomes a bit more aggressive, yet in contrast with her soft voice. I also love the layering in: UNDER THE CHEMTRAILS OVER THE COUNTRY CLUB / You're born in December and I'm born in June Under the chemtrails over the country club / YOU'RE BORN IN DECEMBER AND I'M BORN IN JUNE Genius! 5

Icecream Icequeen Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Some of you who are bashing cocc lyrics saying it is not deep just cause she lists out her daily chores clearly has never broken down while doing your laundry, regretting your choices in life 13

Pico Ocean Boulevard Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 WASHING MY HAIR DOING THE LAUNDRY 12 "Swan Song. It’s on my album Honeymoon. It’s the antithesis of hopefulness. It’s about trying to find beauty in giving up. If I had my way, I would continue to persist in all areas of my life, but it can be quite challenging because I can be too trusting too soon."
