Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's it like up there
Do you worry anymore
How's it feel up there
So much left to say
If I could tell your thoughts right now
It would never be the same
Wait til I am by your side
Then the meaning will come true

You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know

We are nearly there
Do you get to see the love
Can you understand my thoughts
Seeing as no-one else here can
When you see the light
Does your pain just disappear
Will I ever feel your love
Once again my dear

You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know

What's it like up there
How's it feel up there
What's it like up there
How's it feel up there

You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know

You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know
You're love will find a better way
Everybody wants you to know




You're love will find a better way
Everybody,everybody wants to know

I'm going to agree with the name (The Music is a terrible name for a band). However, I also think their fashion sense played a huge part.

Image is really important for a band too. Let's look at some of the other bands that came out at the time. The White Stripes, Franz Ferdinand and The Hives all had a uniform look with certain colours. Coldplay used to go around in dark, buttoned-up coats or other winter clothing, which went well with their mellow music and the "cold" in their name. Maroon 5 had that hot guy, beachy California vibe. The Strokes had that underground New York look with the leather jackets and tight jeans. The Killers wore a lot of colourful collared shirts with blazers or vests (often with ties). Kings of Leon had that Americana, '70s rock look. And then there were people like Sum 41, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte and Avril Lavigne, who had that skater, pop punk look.

The Music look like they had bought their clothes from Sports Direct. They'd go on stage wearing tracksuits and a baggy T-shirt with a massive Adidas logo on it. The guitarist and bassist look particularly bad in this video, in their loose-fitting bootcut jeans and tracksuit tops.

I know Arctic Monkeys wore a lot of jeans and tracksuits when they came out a few years later, but it went well with the style of music they made at the time (songs about being young lads, going out to clubs and getting up to mischief). I think The Music really should've gone with a more hippie or psychedelic '60s look. Paisley shirts, bell bottoms, beads or medallions, etc.

With the way they looked, I don't think they were able to get enough of a female following. They ended up becoming a band for blokes.

These guys have to be among the most underrated bands of all times.

@DJleDev

they were, they are...
I still remember this in 2002... I was only 11 years old(now 31) and this was one of my favourite songs then...

@dirtystreamer

@Robert it was a Killer.Kind of Revolution, that never happens.Not for the Band.Not for the Label but for the listener.

@zavinullava

I'm old enough to remember how insanely overhyped they were. The future of music, the best unsigned band, the most important new band since Oasis, take your pick. They were good, but nowhere near as earth-shattering as they were supposed to be.

@BedtimeStoriesChannel

Seriously, the "underrated" comment is like a meme at this point. We see it in every single YouTube comment section of every single song of every single band. Except maybe The Beatles.

I never understood why The Music was not as massive as they deserve. Their 3 LP are very good.

@tamcon72

Their name. Doing a search for them on most search engines confuses the search engine. It was a terrible choice.

@arya.x

numero 1 en los 10 mas pedidos de mtv, cuando mtv era un canal de musica, que bellos recuerdos.

Tú lo has dicho... Cuándo era!!!
