3) Incorrect tag for t.A.T.u., the Russian girl duo consisting of Lena Katina and Yulia Volkova. See the Wikipedia article in the sources: "After completing the duo, the producers decided on the name "Тату" (Tatu). Sounding like the English word "tattoo", it is also a shortening hint to the Russian phrase "Эта девочка любит ту девочку", meaning "This girl loves that girl". For the release of their first English-language album, they decided to go by t.A.T.u., using uppercase letters and periods to distinguish themselves from an already existing Australian band, Tatu."
How Soon Is Now?
Tatu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
Just like everybody else does
I am the son and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
There's a club if you like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die
When you say it's gonna happen now
What exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
The lyrics of "How Soon Is Now" by Tatu are about the struggles of shyness and the human need for love and connection. The singer identifies as "the sun" and "the heir" of this shyness, but feels that it is "criminally vulgar," suggesting that this internal struggle is both shameful and outside of their control. The repeated phrase "Of nothing in particular" emphasizes the singer's lack of direction or purpose, possibly due to their shyness holding them back.
The second verse addresses criticism the singer has received for their behavior, with the line "You shut your mouth how can you say I go about things the wrong way." The singer argues that they are only human and need love like everyone else, despite the perception of their shyness as an obstacle. The third verse offers a potential solution in the form of a club, where the singer could potentially meet someone who loves them. However, the final lines suggest a sense of hopelessness and despair, with the image of going home alone and wanting to die.
Overall, "How Soon Is Now" explores themes of shyness, self-doubt, and the human need for connection. The lyrics suggest that shyness can be a serious obstacle to finding love and companionship, and that the struggle to overcome it can be overwhelming.

I've been patient for a while, but I'm running out of time
And all my hope is gone
I have lost faith in the future
