I'm gonna tell you about love
Let's forget your life
Forget your problems
Administration, bills, and loans
Come with me

In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance

In the demonstration of this evidence
Some have called it religion
This is not a coincidence
Would you like to try?

Connect to the sky
Future lovers ride
Their ambitions high
Would you like to try?
Let me be your guide
Put aside your pride
Future lovers hide
Love inside their eyes

In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance

Not controlled by time
Future lovers shine
For eternity
In a world that's free
Put away your past
Love will never last
If you're holding on
To a dream that's gone

I'm gonna tell you about love
Would you like to try?

In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
In the evidence of its brilliance
There's no love like the future love

Come with me

Connect to the sky
Future lovers ride
Their ambitions high
Would you like to try? (In the evidence of its brilliance)
Connect to the sky
Future lovers ride
Their ambitions high
Would you like to try? (In the evidence of its brilliance)
(In the evidence of its brilliance)
Connect to the sky, future lovers ride (in the evidence of its brilliance)
Their ambitions high, would you like to try? (In the evidence of its brilliance)
(In the evidence of its brilliance)
(In the evidence of its brilliance)
(In the evidence of its brilliance)

(In the evidence of its brilliance)

    "Some have called it religion. This is not a coincidence."

    ...it's all spiritual. It's about how we all congregate around the light, in all different ways. Some people find their light in religion, others in being a faithful partner. It's all the same kind of love.

    This song is about meeting God at the end of your life. "There is no love like the future love." The future love is the love we get from the Light.

    We are all future lovers, because God's love awaits us all.

    "Let's forget your life." It's about letting go of the earthly (your problems and bills), and returning to the eternal realm.

    "Put away your past, love will never last if you're holding on to a dream that's gone." Life is the dream that will be gone. She's urging us to not be afraid of letting go of it, to see beyond it.

    You must forget life to know the "love controlled by time". "Future lovers shine for eternity".

    "Future lovers hide love inside their eyes." We don't reveal all the love that is inside us during our life. We are hiding love. But she beckons "Come with me" into the "brilliance".

    "In the demonstration of this evidence some call it religion." By saying "some call it religion" means that it's not religion, though religion addresses these issues of the soul and afterlife.

    Rather she seems to be saying that transcendence is a natural and inevitable process, to connect to the sky.

    Eternal love awaits us all in the future. "Would you like to try?" She's offering us a little glimpse of the brilliance of God's love.

    This was a perfect song for the intro of the Confessions tour. This song segued into "I Feel Love", the disco hit. People are fond of saying that God is love. She combined them as if to say "I Feel God".

    We are all future lovers.

    Ummmm...hmmm. The possibility of a future relationship, something to look forward to? Or what she thinks love will be in like, fifty years from now

    Spaceraceman, the last part of your entry:

    "This was a perfect song for the intro of the Confessions tour. This song segued into "I Feel Love", the disco hit. People are fond of saying that God is love. She combined them as if to say "I Feel God". We are all future lovers."

    That basically sums up Madonna's brilliance.

    My Interpretation

    Future Lovers/I Feel Love is about spirituality and brilliance. Madonna has that quality in spades. She is crying about her life. Her sadness is about joy, loveand brilliance! Madonna makes me happy. I Love Her!

    this is a song about spirituality...the higher love...not at all about god, but about ourselves as individuals and spirits able to love...be love and radiate it...the evidence of it

Cannibal RedHook Frontwoman Emmy Mack had this to say about the track; "I wanted to write a song that felt like Nine Inch Nails meets ‘WAP’. An empowering metal anthem that would help me smash some of the stigma and shame around sex that I felt for a long time after surviving SA. Consensual sex is one of the most awesome things in the world! And we’re beyond grateful to the legends in Alpha Wolf for backing this vision, for helping us inject more sexual liberation into the world of heavy music, and above all, for conspiring with us to create a horny metal song about oral sex that people can f*ck to." The Spy Doors, The Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there? Light Up The Sky Van Halen The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it. Cajun Girl Little Feat Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you” Holiday Bee Gees @[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
