Born in Aylesbury to an Australian mother and an Italian father, before spending most of her younger years on the move, Francesca is fluent in Portuguese and Italian. Her interest in music can be credited to her parent’s vast record collection that she started sifting through from the age of four. “I was more attentive to them than anything else in the house,” says Francesca. “My first musical memory was Dire Straits, then I remember a lot of Michael Jackson and singers like Sade and Sinead O’Connor. I exhausted every single thing my parents had. I didn’t really realise how much I loved music back then.”
No Love
Lyves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm standing here and I ain't got you
As we lay here lovers in arms
I can feel your fear, can this love be true?
Come on lift me up love, I keep falling
I'm losing faith cause you keep stalling
Lift me up love, I keep falling
Cause you ain't got no
If you ain't got no love to give
You ain't got no
If you ain't got no love to give
I keep calling
I keep calling
I keep calling
I keep calling
Lyves's song No Love is a poignant and emotional track that delves into the complexities of love and relationships. The opening line, "It's been two years, I keep calling," sets the tone for the rest of the song which centers around the frustration of an unrequited love. The singer is standing there without the person they love, despite their efforts to reach out.
The chorus "Cause you ain't got no, if you ain't got no love to give," speaks to the emptiness felt when love is not reciprocated. It highlights the fact that love is a two-way street and if one person is not bringing their share of it to the table, then it's not a true and fulfilling relationship.
The second verse, "Come on lift me up love, I keep falling, I'm losing faith cause you keep stalling," reveals the singer's desperation and need for the other person to bring something to the relationship. There is a struggle to maintain hope when the other person's actions lead to doubts about the authenticity of their love.
Overall, the song is a powerful testament to the ups and downs of love, especially the pain of loving someone who can't or won't love you back.

—Token Preface citing Vince Staples
This is excellent. I think it speaks volumes that people turn to Google to learn about the origin of a sample.
I have had the same favorite band since I was 10. Nine Inch Nails. I’m almost 40 (fuck me). Tupac and Fiona Apple are favorites as well. I love when l subjectively hear music that sounds authentic. Not targeted toward a certain demographic or genre. If you trimmed this down to 3:32 and threw in a bridge….oh Lorde, we’ve got a winner!
(You’re cool ya Kiwi; I saw you in Denmark and enjoyed…and you’re not reading this. It was just a play on words that wasn’t even clever…but I’m too far in to edit now 🙃)
What a waste of well intended space this became. You have a great voice there….
Summation: ‘This is not my type of shit; but this is the shit and I love when I enjoy something I do not anticipate’
Uh. Carry on Englander.
(Seriously though we get Cara Delevingne in some latex either in a snowfield or a desert. She’s like crazy intense doing that Cara face….and she happens to be in a Volvo. I see fulfilled. Maybe even get close to the four minute mark. Let’s get that money. You’re talent and my……yeah. Good job not doing that )
@bakerbuffs1
Vince sample for this is insane
@strictlylesothomusic8938
Vince Staples sampled this song in a song called When Sparks Fly from his new 2022 album called 'Ramona Park Broke My Heart'. If it wasn't for him, i wouldn't have known that this song existed. 🔥🔥
