A big part of the Bliss' sound was sequenced beats, breaks, loops and samples, with live drums, bass, guitar and keyboards on top, inspired by Jesus Jones and Pop Will Eat Itself.

14. Grunge may not have yet become a universal language, but it's translated credibly enough for Montreal's Bliss (Colin Burnett, David Bryant, Michael Stevenson, Sylvain Bouthilliette), whose "Grafted to an Elbow" (1993) is 11 tracks of grinding post-melodic post-punk. Produced by Chicago rancor-rock godfather Steve Albini, "Grafted to an Elbow" is oblique yet vehement, its unease with contemporary society conveyed more by TV- damaged titles like "Nature's Gentle Regulator" than by the cryptic, fragmentary lyrics spit out by David Bryant (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Set Fires To Flames).
15. Bliss were a Canadian R&B/pop girl group who released a few singles in the late 1990s including 'Butterflies' and 'Can't Deny'.

Your Love Meant Everything
Bliss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I just can't hide no lies
Oh, I guess I've been selfish and stupid and blind
To expect him to love my disguise
Lord knows how I've tried to reach some kind of compromise
But I know what it's gotta be
Goodbye, goodbye, your love meant everything
I have come here to say that we've both gotta walk away
In directions that won't meet again
At first it will hurt, it will empty our hearts
But the passage of time will be kind
Please say you understand
It's one woman for one man
Well for me, that's how it's gotta be
Goodbye, goodbye, your love meant everything
That a love can mean
Goodbye, goodbye bye, your love meant everything
But it's gotta end
Goodbye is what I have to say
Save all your lovin' for a rainy day
Be sure you kiss her before you miss me
Don't mourn the passing of a foolish heart
The thought of you walking the road all on your own
Makes me cry boy, cry boy
See, I can't believe our love is dyin'
You say is that all there is, will we ever get over this?
I don't know, but it's gotta be
Bliss's song "Your Love Meant Everything" is a melancholic and introspective track that deals with themes of heartbreak, self-reflection, and acceptance. The song's narrator seems to be struggling with letting go of a relationship that has run its course, acknowledging that her own insecurities and emotional baggage have contributed to its demise. She admits to wearing a "disguise" to try and make the relationship work, but ultimately realizes that she needs to move on, even though it will be painful.
The lyrics are poignant and raw, revealing the singer's vulnerability and honesty as she grapples with the pain of ending a significant chapter in her life. She recognizes the gravity of the situation, stating that "your love meant everything that a love can mean," but understands that saying goodbye is the only way forward.
The chorus of "Goodbye, goodbye, your love meant everything that a love can mean" is repeated multiple times, emphasizing the weight of the decision to end the relationship. The song's instrumentation perfectly complements its introspective lyrics, with soft piano chords and gentle strings creating a somber and reflective atmosphere.
