    "Go to sleep and dream again

    And there'll be no crying soon"

  • @thecatmangaming5503
    @thecatmangaming5503 Před 4 lety +4

    Oh man... what a gorgeous little gem of a song :--)
    That harmony kicking in always gives me chills and Freddie's voice is so tender and calming, like... goddamn
    Could really be used as a gentle lullaby
    That being said, I feel the hidden star of the show here is Brian May's songwriting! Idk how many of you guys have seen the songmeanings page for this, but a lot of people there feel there's some darker (perhaps even suicidal) undertones to the lyrics, and... I can see it, though obviously we don't know for sure what Brian was intending. It does kinda sound like a message from a recently deceased person to their loved ones, like... "your love is gone, only tears to dwell upon" (his 'dear friends' are pretty clearly grieving a loss)
    But the part that really gets to me are the lines "soon your hopes will rise, and then/there'll be no crying soon"... I can sort of hear that as the suicidal narrator's low selfesteem coming through? It almost has a tone of "yeah you've lost me, but eh you'll be fine and get over it quickly" which sadly I'm sure is something a lot of suicidal people do wrongly believe
    Any thoughts?
