Born in Odense, Denmark, MØ was just seven when the Spice Girls inspired her to make music. In her teenage years, she sang in the punk duo MOR and looked up to Kim Gordon as a "big hero and role model". Then in her early twenties, she "fell in love" with hip-hop. All of these influences led to her dreamy electro-pop vibe as MØ, which means "maiden" or "virgin" in Danish.
In 2012, she and Ronni Vindahl began to collaborate on her first tracks. Glass was released in Janurary 2013, and Pilgrim followed in March. MØ was recognized as P3s Uundgåelige (P3 Unavoidable), a label given to rising artists by Danish radio station DR P3, as Pilgrim charted on the Danish Singles Chart. In November, she released her debut EP, Bikini Daze. Finishing out the year, she won the P3 Guld award in December.
In March 2014, she released her album No Mythologies to Follow and began touring in Europe and North America. It was supported by singles Don't Wanna Dance, Say You'll Be There (Spice Girls cover), and Walk This Way. In October 2014, she was featured on Iggy Azalea's single Beg For It and performed on Saturday Night Live — her first entry on the US Billboard charts peaking at #27. In 2015, MØ contributed vocals to Lean On, the Major Lazer and DJ Snake dancehall hit that reached #4 on the US Billboard and topped several other charts around the world.
In 2016, MØ released two singles for her upcoming second studio album — both Kamikaze and Final Song charted in several countries, with the latter reaching #1 on the UK charts. Cold Water, featuring Justin Bieber and MØ, was another Major Lazer track that reached 2 on the Billboard charts in August.
Sun In Our Eyes
MØ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The scent of summer in my bed
When we were footprints in the sand
Stealing liquor, making plans
I can see your face from miles and miles away
But heaven knows it's gonna fade, heaven knows it's gonna fade
I'm a dog searching for reasons and a way
Forget my name
And just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes
Yeah, just ride on that cloud until we fall from the sky
No tears for the night, for the night
For the night
Yeah, just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes
They said to watch out for your kind
I watched out and it blew my mind, yeah
They say that romance makes you blind
Well, I'll be blinded for a lifetime
But I can see your face from miles and miles away
And I remember every kiss, all the games you had me play
I'm a dog searching for answers and a way
Back to your hands, you made me tremble, made me crash
Forget my name
And just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes
Yeah, just ride on that cloud until we fall from the sky
No tears for the night, for the night (for the night, for the night)
For the night (for the night, for the night)
Yeah, just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes
Lala lala lala lala la
Lala lala lala lala la
With the sun in our eyes
Lala lala lala lala la
Lala lala lala lala la
Ey, I can see your face from miles and miles away
But heaven knows it's gonna fade, heaven knows it's gonna fade
I'm a dog searching for answers and a way
Back to your hands, you make me tremble, make me crash
Forget my name
And just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes
Yeah, just ride on that cloud until we fall from the sky (until we fall from the sky)
No tears for the night, for the night (for the night, for the night)
For the night (one more time)
Yeah, just ride that wave until we're higher than life
With the sun in our eyes

I feel the sunlight on my head
I am experiencing the warmth of the sun on top of me
The scent of summer in my bed
I can smell the aroma of summer time inside my bedroom
When we were footprints in the sand
In the past, we left behind signs of our presence on the beach
Stealing liquor, making plans
We took alcohol that did not belong to us while also forming schemes for our future
I can see your face from miles and miles away
From far off, I have the ability to recognize you and recall many memories
But heaven knows it's gonna fade, heaven knows it's gonna fade
Despite this, I am aware that our moments together will eventually diminish
I'm a dog searching for reasons and a way
I am trying to understand why I feel the way I do and how to navigate my emotions
Back to your hands, you make me tremble, make me crash
I long to be in your arms again, as you evoke intense feelings in me
Forget my name
I desire to lose myself in the moment and not be identified as anyone in particular
And just ride that wave until we're higher than life
I want to experience life to its fullest, feeling invincible while doing so
With the sun in our eyes
The warmth from the sun will serve as a reminder of our happiness
Yeah, just ride on that cloud until we fall from the sky
We will keep enjoying ourselves until we can no longer sustain the high
No tears for the night, for the night
We will not waste our time worrying about the inevitable end
For the night
We will savor the moment in its entirety
They said to watch out for your kind
People warned me about individuals like you
I watched out and it blew my mind, yeah
I was cautious, but I still became enamored by you
They say that romance makes you blind
Many believe that being in love can cloud one's judgment
Well, I'll be blinded for a lifetime
I am willing to remain in this state forever
And I remember every kiss, all the games you had me play
I have vivid recollections of our intimate encounters, including the activities you encouraged me to partake in
I'm a dog searching for answers and a way
I am continuing to seek answers and direction
Lala lala lala lala la
This line is a vocalization of a melody with no specific meaning
With the sun in our eyes
The sun will remain as a symbol of our joy
Until we fall from the sky
Our enjoyment will only come to an end when we are unable to sustain it any longer
Yeah, just ride that wave until we're higher than life
We will enjoy life to the fullest until we reach a state of immense pleasure
For the night
We will live in the moment without thoughts of the future
