Formation and debut album (2005 - Present)
Snowhite, leading vocalist of Love Arcade, brought together his group of five to begin the formation of the band. Snowhite came up with a title that represented the vibe of the songs and would stick in people's minds, upon which Love Arcade was christened. Upon the signing of the newly-created band under Atlantic Records, Love Arcade set out to record their first album. After recording and re-recording a multitude of songs, the band was left to decide on twelve of the hundreds of options that would collectively be known as their debut, self-titled album. The result was successful; a collection of twelve catchy, radio-friendly rock songs, released in August 2006.
On January 1, 2008, Love Arcade posted a blog on their MySpace telling their fans that a new album was coming soon. The album has not yet been titled, and it is rumored to include Love Arcade's three new tracks, which include "Knocks Me Off My Feet", "While U Were Sleeping", "1 2 Here's A Clue", and "Song 4".
On April 28, 2008, Love Arcade released their first music video since their debut album for their song "Hanging By A String".

Love Arcade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Haven't seen you in awhile
Don't worry I've been working up a smile
I started doing drugs
No I haven't fell in love
About to quit the band
But I think you'll understand
(I'm coming home soon)
Just think about it
(I'm coming home soon)
Nothing to do but think about it
(I'm coming home soon)
Do we just think about it?
(I'm coming home soon)
Just think about it
Hey Sara
Haven't seen you in so long
And why'd I do it?
Oh I know that it's so wrong
But it's ok I'm alright
I can suck you in tonight
I'll see you in a bit
Here's a song so you don't quit waiting
I'm coming home
(I'm coming home soon)
Just think about it
(I'm coming home soon)
Nothing to do but think about it
(I'm coming home soon)
Do we just think about it?
(I'm coming home soon)
Just think about it
In Love Arcade's song "Sara," the singer expresses his desire to return home and connect with "Sara" after some time apart. He begins by acknowledging that he has been away for a while and that he has been "working up a smile" despite using drugs and considering quitting the band. He then reassures Sara that he will be coming home soon and urges her to think about it while he continues to ponder their relationship.
The lyrics suggest a certain amount of regret and longing on the part of the singer. He acknowledges the negative aspects of his life, such as drug use and the possibility of leaving the band, but ultimately, he wants to come home and see Sara again. The repeated refrain of "just think about it" further emphasizes the singer's eagerness to reconnect with Sara and perhaps suggests that he wants her to consider the same.
Overall, "Sara" seems to be a song about the desire for connection and the willingness to make amends, despite the challenges of life. The singer is flawed but ultimately hopeful, and the song captures the bittersweet emotions that often come with the end of a period of separation.
