Angela
The Star Spangles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She's gonna be there in the very front row – I know
And when I stare into that space, I'll always see her face
I'm never alone when I'm up on stage
(chorus)
Angela – everything's gonna be alright
Angela – there's gonna be rainbows tonight
She's got my posters up on the wall
She used a box of tacks to make sure it just don't fall
And when I stare into that space
I will always see her face
I'm never all alone when I'm up on stage
(repeat chorus)
She blew a kiss at my guitar
And it went straight right through my heart
(repeat chorus)
The Star Spangles' song "Angela" is all about the impact that a girl named Angela has on the lead singer. The lyrics describe Angela as a devoted fan who is always in the front row of their shows, and who has plastered her walls with posters of the band. The singer finds comfort in the fact that Angela is always there, even if he can't see her face in the crowd, and feels connected to her when he's performing on stage.
The chorus of the song reinforces this connection, with the repeated mantra of "Angela – everything's gonna be alright /Angela – there's gonna be rainbows tonight". This suggests that the singer believes that Angela brings him luck and positive energy, and that she helps him get through the difficulties of being in a band. The final verse is particularly poignant, as the simple act of Angela blowing a kiss at the singer's guitar is enough to make him feel love for her.
Overall, "Angela" is a simple but effective song about the power of fandom and the ways in which fans can impact performers on a personal level.
