The new album by the Australian duo Pnau, due out in summer 2011 and tentatively titled Soft Universe, is the finest example yet of their epic techno pop. The faster, more uptempo tracks - using their best-known songs to date, Embrace and With You Forever (the latter featuring Luke Steele of The Sleepy Jackson and Empire Of The Sun), as the template ' are their most accessible and uplifting ventures yet into the territory of supercharged anthemica.
For Nick, Elton's involvement has been a lifeline. 'He's been incredible at mentoring me through a period of depression,' he reveals. And Pnau have been able to return the favour, working on an album based on the songwriting legend's massive back catalogue, on a project that will amount to a thorough re-examination of his work. It is bound to cause tremendous interest in 2011.
Solid Ground
PNAU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My palms are wet, come on let's dance
Open your arms, understand
If you let me be your man
and like a flash I'll come aground
Shoot it out and come back down
Shower down like goodness upon
Say I'm ready to give my love
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
Photographs on my bed
It's like a secret dream in my head
So your first time is not like the last
I'm wide open up again
Good times coming back in my life
All of a sudden I'm ready to try
Can you hear me on this night?
No one's standin out of sight
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
Feel the joy, it's overflowing
In the sunlight, in my window
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby
I'll show you
Looks like I got my feet back on solid ground
My head's been stuck in a storm so long
My head's been stuck in a storm so long
My head's been stuck in a storm so long
The lyrics to PNAU's song "Solid Ground" convey a message of hope and newfound direction in life. The song recounts the journey of a person who has been lost in a personal storm, perhaps struggling with their sense of self and purpose, and has finally begun to find their way back to solid ground. The refrain "There's too much worth living for, too much worth living for baby, I'll show you" is a vow to their loved ones and themselves that they will make the most of their lives and not waste any more time in turmoil.
The song's verses describe the singer's newfound confidence and willingness to take chances - "all of a sudden I'm ready to try" - and the excitement and joy they feel as they set out on this new path, "feel the joy, it's overflowing in the sunlight, in my window." The bridge, "Looks like I got my feet back on solid ground, my head's been stuck in a storm so long," is a powerful, triumphant moment where the singer realizes that they have overcome their struggles and have emerged stronger and more determined than ever.
Overall, "Solid Ground" is a song about resilience, hope, and the transformative power of love and support.
