Where's North from here?

It was a glitter freeze

You are a credit
A believer

Ship him far




Overall Meaning

The lyrics here may be open to interpretation, but on first glance, it seems as though the singer is lost or confused and is seeking direction. The line "Where's North from here?" is a literal reference to finding a sense of direction. However, it could also be interpreted as a metaphor for being lost in life and seeking guidance. The following line "It was a glitter freeze" could signify the idea of being stuck in a moment or a feeling. When something is frozen, it is stuck in time, and it may appear beautiful or glittery, but it is ultimately frozen and unchanging. The singer may be describing a situation or emotion that they feel frozen in.


The lines "You are a credit, A believer" could be interpreted in a few different ways. "You are a credit" may refer to giving someone credit for their accomplishments or abilities. "A believer" could signify faith in something or someone. The line "Ship him far" is the most puzzling out of all the lyrics. It could suggest a call to send someone away, or it could be seen as a metaphor for leaving behind something or someone that is unwanted.

If I build a time machine... which of you would like to go back to the 80s with me?
Seeing the LPs and the cassettes...and this song...fills my heart with great nostalgia...we were happy in the 80s...and we didn't know it!

I’m 51 and have two mint BMX bikes from the 80’s just like these. They are carpet queens and haven’t seen the pavement for decades. All of a sudden, just for a brief moment, I’m 14 again 😎
