Song of the Day: Namedropper

Today’s song is Namedropper by Valley.
Another interesting song from “the Canadian the 1975”.
That hook is so satisfying and unique. I keep finding myself humming it.

Everyone knows you. Everyone says they know your name.

This song makes me sad. It really explores pride and ‘hedonism’.
The lyrics only build to the story of someone who was proud of someone who became unrecognizable.
All that fame changed the person they loved.
They still want to support them by ‘name dropping’, but they don’t follow their work anymore.
Late when I’m out thinking how…I’ve never seen you on the screen.
