    Second, Placebo took hold of my shaky teenage hand in 1998 and has been with me through three decades of my life so I call their music a true friend. And a friend’s right is to be who they are without loads of excuses and explanations, moreover a friend’s obligation is be blunt, literal and to the point if needed… Thank you, Placebo…

      I'm 23 now, started listening to Placebo on the bus to college. God know how I got into them but the music really resonated. Hope you are doing well, truly. Really wish you don't come back to these songs out of pain - but more a "yeah I frickin survived and got through it" kinda thing. Wishing you my most possible well wishes you beautiful, amazing, miserable human x

    When I heard this song for first time, I thought it was a joke. Now I can realize it has some of he deepest lyrics talking about todays life way. Where the innovation in social culture has ended in the innovation of loneliness.

    I think a lot of you don´t realize "Gay" also means happy, and he is talking about how he is sick of putting up a fake mask on social media, pretending to be happy for people that don´t really matter because they are just there for the likes and the memes and how even when he haves too many "friends" they are not his real friends outside of the computer, because he knows he can never count on them for when he is sad or angry.
    How many of you have been having a shitty time and pretend to be gay/happy on social media, posting memes of pictures of what you are eating just to get the instant gratification a few "likes" can bring you for a fraction of a second to stop feeling so alone.

    • @JordanR
      @JordanR Před 8 lety

      My interpretation is that he's referring to the tenuous social connection that exists between people on social media. Having 500 friends on Facebook doesn't mean you have 500 people you can count on and vice versa.

    My computer thinks I'm gay
    I threw that piece of junk
    away on the champs-Elysees
    as I was walking home.
    this is m last communique
    down the supper highway all
    that I have left to say in
    a single tome.
    I got too many friends too
    many people that I'll never
    meet and I'll never be there
    for I'll never be there for
    cause I'll never be there.
    If I could give it all away
    will it come back to me
    someday like a needle in the
    hay or an expensive stone.
    But I got a reson to declaim
    the applications are to blame
    for all my sorrow an my pain
    a feeling so alone.
    I got too many friends too
    many people that I'll never
    meet and I'll never be there
    for I'll never be there for
    cause I'll never be there.
    My computer thinks I'm gay
    I threw that piece of junk
    away on the champs-Elysees
    as I was walking home.
    I got too many friends too

    meet and I'll never be there

      Mon ordinateur pense que je suis gay
      Je l'ai jeté (à la poubelle/loin de moi)
      Sur les Champs Élysées
      Alors que je rentrai à la maison
      Ceci est ma dernière note (pas super bonne traduction mais bon...)
      (?) En descendant (?) l'autoroute
      Tout ce qu'il me reste à dire
      En une seule fois
      J'ai trop d'amis
      Trop de personne
      Que je ne rencontrerai jamais
      Pour qui je ne serai jamais là
      Pour qui je ne serai jamais là
      Parce que je ne serai pas là
      Si je pouvais tout donner
      Est-ce qu'on me le rendrait un jour
      Comme une aiguille dans une botte de foin (?)
      Ou une pierre précieuse
      Mais j'ai des raisons de dire
      Qu'il faut blâmer les applications
      Pour ton mon chagrin et ma peine
      Et ma solitude

      C'est fixer leur portable
      J'ai trop d'amis
      Trop de personne
      Que je ne rencontrerai jamais

      This is not about being gay or not.
      It's about the rumors and when ppl know you're hetero, they don't care. Like it or not, it's a FACT. stop always act like ''oh kay so if aim hétéro lol''.

      gay culture is throwing your piece-of-junk computer into the Champs Elises and never getting to meet your online friends

      Actually its about spending too much time on your computer. 'The song deals with people on the internet and being far more close to friends on the internet, rather than off the computer. It is also about loneliness, which Placebo frontman Brian Molko said was the "modern version of, 'I’m sitting by the phone, waiting for you to call.'"

      Reply to AīKo .No cos he says his computer thinks he's Gay . Your listening to0 your phone not a computer or laptop. Your listening to it on a phone which is sold as a smart phone not a computer phone or a laptop phone. Its a smart phone . Read the dictionary. Look up irony . Have a nice day. Davy 🦂

      Actually, I don't think it's about sexual orientation, but about being gay, as in happy, pun intended.

      Pun? But yeah, that's what I thought it meant too. The internet can't keep you satisfied all the time anyways.
