Rainbow
Fred Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When your rainbow breaks in two
And all those stars come crashing to the ground?
What are you supposed to do
When your pot of gold is fool's gold
And you're the only fool left around?
When the one you're counting on
Turns out she just can't do the math?
What are you supposed to do
When your rainbow breaks in two
Now all you're left with is a half?
What are you supposed to say
When the one who's going away
Turns out her ticket was for two?
How can you carry on
When you've been stolen from
By the very one who said she'd be true?
And all your setting suns
Turns out that they weren't done
They were coming up in someone else's world
What are you supposed to do
When your rainbows break in two
And all your favorite colors went to her?
Pick up half a rainbow
Throw it over your shoulder
Tell her you're glad that it's finally over
And find another rainbow
You can hook up to
That's what you're supposed to do
Yeah, pick up half a rainbow
Throw it over your shoulder
Tell her you're glad that it's finally over
And find another rainbow
You can hook up to
That's what you're supposed to do
The lyrics to Fred's song Rainbow are discussing the hardships and heartbreak that come with a broken relationship. Fred narrates the challenges of dealing with a broken relationship, one in which the one he loved either betrayed him, left him, or lost love for him. Fred poses questions throughout the song such as “what are you supposed to do when your rainbow breaks in two?” and “what are you supposed to say when the one who’s going away, turns out her ticket was for two?” These questions indicate that something went awry, and Fred is unsure how to move on or react.
Fred suggests that the best way to move on is by finding a new rainbow to hook up to. While the pain may be severe at first, you eventually have to learn to let go and move on. When half of your rainbow is gone, you have to pick up the other half, throw it over your shoulder, and be glad it's finally over. This last line may seem insensitive, but it showcases how one is supposed to adjust and move on from heartbreak.

Howard describing Imus is like anyone describing Howard, today. Satellite radio is dying, and Howard somehow has convinced them that all the subs they have are listening to him as he's completely alienated every fan he ever had.
@TeleCaster66
I would have never guessed Howard would've turned into the person he is now. He's really a horrible person in a lot of ways, one being his Covid views, what a sad old fool.
@IAEMThatIAEM
I don't understand why a fan would feel alienated that the person who they liked got old
@IAEMThatIAEM
howard is older now than imus was then. There has to be a reason they keep reupping his contract

This is one of those things where multiple revelations come out years after-the-fact. Fred and Allison Norris had marital troubles (continuing for several years) in that April 1996 period. Fred was keeping in touch with his estranged wife, but only meeting her at restaurants for dinner and such. They tried to keep up appearances, but would flare up into fights, most notably at this Rainbow Room venue. What isn't such common knowledge is that HOWARD and his missus were also on the rocks during that same time -- Howard moved into a specially-built-for-him apartment during the Private Parts film, Howard was trying to keep up appearances (because THE MOVIE WAS ABOUT A HAPPY MULTI-DECADE MARRIAGE), but the Sterns were effectively estranged during production. The undercurrent here (in 1996) is: Howard is poking Fred about the deteriorating quality of his marriage, Fred isn't happy about it, and Fred is hinting but not directly saying "Hey, buddy, YOU'RE not the one to be mocking OTHERS for a quietly disintegrating marriage." He even repeats it here, again, years after the fact. "Other people had their own issues, during that time, and that's all I'm gonna say."
@MossB87
Mad respect for Fred for keeping quiet about Howards’s marital troubles I would not have hesitated in putting Howard on blast if I’d been in Fred’s position.
@GetMeThere1
Thanks for that summary. Appreciated.
@sskoog
Last bit of this drama: Howard kept bugging Fred about this Rainbow Room incident, Fred kept saying "Lay off, I'm not gonna talk about this on-air," Howard did his typical "Yes, we'll talk about whatever I want to" schtick, and finally Fred walked out of the studio. Howard downplayed it as a lighthearted spat-of-the-week, UNTIL Fred also skipped the (Private Parts) movie filming that afternoon. Then Howard threw his own tantrum, and the two had a backstage conversation.
@GetMeThere1
@@sskoog Yes, I'm listening to it now ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok791HVQRhM ). I'd heard it before, years ago, but I didn't really put together the overview of Fred AND Howard both having marriage troubles around the same time,
@lopey5035
Almost like Howard is a soulless piece of shit who built his career off of infinitely more talented, funnier, better people than himself.
