Never Never
R.E.A.L. Lyrics

In R.E.A.L.'s song Never Never, the repetition of the phrase "never really noticed" suggests a feeling of detachment or apathy towards the world around the singer. The singer seems almost resigned to the monotony of their existence, highlighted by the line "It's always the same old stuff." The reference to playing thousands of records also emphasizes this sense of repetition and routine. However, the song's overall tone is not entirely hopeless, as the line "I could try" suggests an underlying desire for change or improvement.

The second half of the song takes a more personal turn, with references to the singer's father and a final line in which they should "mind" their father's "last cry." This suggests a certain level of regret or guilt about a past event. The line "Why do I mind / 'Cause I could fly" creates a sense of conflict between the singer's desire for freedom and their sense of obligation to their family or past.

Overall, Never Never captures a feeling of being stuck in a rut, but also contains hints of hope and the possibility of change.
