History
Thomas Dybdahl feat. Coucheron Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Coast to coast and you wanted me to follow
Head over heals but the ground was hollow
Who was the first one to know?
Who was the last to let go?

Face to face, but unable to face it
Afraid to look, 'cause we didn't wanna chase it
Who was the first one to know?
Who was the last to let go?

'Cause you gotta believe
Ain't no one can touch us now in history
You gotta believe, one can never learn a thing from history
Basses low, but the feel was shallow
Shot to the heart, but with a rusty arrow
Time was just never our friend

Who knows what's coming to end
'Cause you gotta believe, ain't no one can touch us now in history
You gotta believe, one can never learn a thing from history
When the time is right and the future looks bright
The past may want us to come to light
And out of the blue what was old is new

Maybe we'll give it just one more chance
Maybe one last dance
'Cause you gotta believe
Ain't no one can touch us now in history
You gotta believe
One can never learn no way from history
'Cause you gotta believe
Ain't no one can touch us now in history




You gotta believe
One can never learn no way from history

Overall Meaning

The song "History" is a collaboration between Norwegian singer Thomas Dybdahl and Norwegian producer Coucheron, released in 2016. The song deals with the complexities of a past relationship that came to an end, but there is a possibility of a second chance. The opening lines "Coast to coast and you wanted me to follow / Head over heals but the ground was hollow" describe the singer's willingness to follow the love interest's lead, but their foundation was not strong.


The lyrics continue to explore the dynamics of the relationship, with both parties being afraid of "chasing" it. The chorus "You gotta believe / Ain't no one can touch us now in history / You gotta believe / One can never learn a thing from history" suggests that the singer believes that their love is special and that they should not let their past history affect their future possibility to rekindle their love. The bridge of the song expresses uncertainty about the future and the possibility of reconciling by saying, "Maybe we'll give it just one more chance / Maybe one last dance." The song ends on an optimistic note with the chorus repeating and the possibility of being in love again.


Overall, "History" is a song about the power of love to overcome the past and the potential for second chances in relationships. The song's melody and production evoke a sense of nostalgia while the lyrics are introspective and hopeful.

That’s awesome


2:00:51 The thing is on this 1 has me thinking is that who actually has all the equipment to go out there underwater and then want to take the time to do this , where most likely no one was going to see it

Unless they knew History Ch was coming so they got their gear and their buddy and went down to set this up

Or History did this just for the show and so they could disprove it & have extra footage
That’s the most plausible being that you have to have a boat , scuba gear, want to do this and have the time to do it , AS WELL AS KNOW WHERE TO GO TO SET IT UP 🤿

The fact there’s not much sediment on the rocks makes me think that History did this for the show and if that’s the case they need to keep it 💯
and at the very least it should be stated it was for entertainment at the end of the show
& in this case posted in the show notes 📝

Otherwise , who has the gear & the time ?
I know there’s many scuba divers but I’d think that most whom are into it wouldn’t want to make a fake ancient site

But people are crazy , so it is not like it’s that impossible

If you ever get to Hackensack MN and have access to a boat or canoe outside the southwest bay is an interesting rock formation that is the size of a football field and just under the surface so be careful if using a motor. It has straight runs from above it looks like a street layout model. It looks all cut not just rocks.

I'll have to check that out. I'm in Walker.

I believe that the scientific community needs to start doing what is right rather than what is easy. Either way, the truth will be known. With or without their control....

Also the Mayans were in what’s now Honduras. They founded one of the most beautiful cities called Copan. One of the kings was 18 Rabbit. If you haven’t visited this site, I would recommend to do so. Also, I will encourage you to visit the recently found White City or City of the Monkey God.

There was (still?) a problem that if one reported something of anthropogenic interest on their property, the government would cease the land. I’m sure there are a lot of interesting sites that have been kept quiet. That unusual mound? Saying nothing.

The cave drawings for their accuracy, when the Dead Sea Scrolls importance to the Biblical History must be something the Egyptians wanted to do to prepare to know the vast unknown distances, since they were seemingly learning the world was round and the starting point would be the end point someday too.
