Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Without the woman next to me
Guilt is burning, inside I'm hurting
This ain't a feeling I can keep
So blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
Blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
So blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
Don't blame it on me
Can't you see it?
I was manipulated by it
To little to the down
Mmh, I had no choice in this
I was a friend she missed
She needed me to talk
So blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
Blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
Blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
So blame it on the ni-i-i-ight
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
Don't blame it on me
Oh, I'm so sorry, so sorry, babe
Yeah (I will be better this time, I will be better this time, I will be)
Oh, I got to say (Oh, I promise, I'll be better this time, I will)
So sorry (Be better this time, I will be)
Oh, I promise (I'll be better this time, I will be better this time)
Don't blame it on me
Don't blame it on me-e-e-e-e
The lyrics in this song describe a man who can't sleep because of the guilt he feels for hurting the woman next to him. He acknowledges that he's made a mistake and caused her pain but asks her to blame it on the night instead of blaming him. He feels that the night played a role in his actions and the mistakes he made. He was manipulated by the night, and as a result, he had no choice but to make the decisions he made. The chorus repeats several times throughout the song, emphasizing the idea that the man wants the woman to let go of the blame and not hold him responsible for what happened between them.
The lyrics in this song evoke a sense of regret and remorse for the mistakes that the man made. He acknowledges that he was responsible for causing her pain but tries to deflect some of the blame onto the night.

Overall, the lyrics in this song are powerful and emotional, telling a story of pain, regret, and the desire for forgiveness.

The 2011-2015 period were the golden era of EDM. Lots and lots of quality electronic songs week after week.
The era was ignited by the Swedish DJ's like Avicci, Axwell, ingrosso etc.. their songs started to get huge airplays in USA, thus started to take over the mainstream music, competed with pop music and at a point of time even mainstream pop music was losing to edm. That was the standard of these DJ's.
The era was dominated by mostly European producers like Avicci, Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, Hardwell, Tiesto, Afrojack, Robin Schulz, Alesso, showteck, Nicky Romero and many other.
Avicci and Calvin Harris seemed like the flag bearers of the era with their many smash hits.
Swedish House Mafia dissolved before Axwell and ingrosso started making music as duo, they were also one of the key figures of the era.
Dutch DJ's Hardwell, Afrojack and Tiesto had huge success with their songs getting in to Billboard charts and New faces like Martin Garrix and Alesso were big hit from the very start and went on to become so huge by the end of the era.
Music festivals like Tomorrowland and ultra music festival became the biggest festivals of the decade which helped edm to become a culture worldwide and helped to regain its long lost glory.
House music was the king. Electro, progressive, bigroom, deep and tropical house songs were all over the charts.
New artist kygo from Norway increased the legacy of the era by give great tropical house classics .kygos arrival was during the last year's of the golden age and continued his success past the era
The era also had great number of Drum n bass,Dubstep, hardstyle hits which showed the diversity of golden age.
The golden age came to an end when producers started featuring for mainstream pop artists for dance pop songs which have mostly a future bass or trap drop eg: Martin Garrix, Dimitri Vegas and chainsmokers whose new hits which were mostly future bass and trap which were well recieved .
The shift from the major house sound to the hip-hop trap, future bass kind of sound was evident. There were many good artists in these like chainsmokers but all producers somehow tried different styles which were not as catchy or impactful as their previous hits.
Still, Calvin Harris enjoyed success with club edm sound, kygo was becoming huge but the huge number in dutch and Swedish House songs declined and the industry was inclined towards a different sound
Mumble rap came in to scene and a horrific trap sound ruled the industry for some years . Only a few artists like Alan Walker, kygo and new artists like marshmelo was able to hit some sweet spot.
Marshmello sucsses proved that trap and future bass sounds are now the ruling sound of the industry during late 2010s .
But by then the golden age signature house sound faded away. If you ask a music critics of 2010 that what was the highlight of the decade, you most probably get the answer EDM
Definitely edm was the gamechanger ,an explosion in to the scene which wa predicted by many artists a long time ago, And the result was gold. The era gave great memories to music fans especially electronic music fans to cherish forever.
Hardcore edm fans believe that the era is not at all dead and it's in it's dormant stage and waiting for a huge comeback♥️ hope so😊
