Samantha is filled with unexpected turns. Sparse one- and two-minute instrumental sketches serve as interludes, creating a sense of flow with soul and R&B samples ("Stoned at the MoMA", "Prayer Hands", the Ciara-quoting "Boo Boo Mobile"). Bundick ventures into ambient on glitchy, sedate closer "welp, tour’s over" and "ambient Rainbow", with the latter layering choral vocals and soothing washes of sound to mesmerizing ends. It’s a testament to Bundick’s innovation that he’s still finding ways to contort his signature sound into new shapes. Even when songs do call back to his previous work, as on "Us 2", which pairs a churning hip-hop beat with sugary synth pads that sound lifted from his 2011 cover of Cherrelle’s "Saturday Love", they still put a fresh spin on the approach.
The songs on Samantha are about the ups and downs of relationships, placing most emphasis on the downs. Bundick even goes so far as to tack an extended sample of The Notebook onto the end of creeping, Washed Out-assisted "Want", a move that very narrowly evades tipping over into schmaltz. On the trap-influenced "The Usual", he laments the frustrations of being a workaholic in a relationship, an unusually frank moment from Bundick. Elsewhere, Kool A.D. spins off into woozy, emotionally conflicted verses ("I got problems acting like a fuckin’ grown up," he grouses in Auto-Tune on "Real Love"), while rising Atlanta rapper Rome Fortune relays relationship fallouts on two of the tape’s best tracks, "Pitch Black" and Puff Daddy-sampling "Benjiminz". Samantha lightens up by the end, as on the sweetly jittery "Enough of You", but the main theme seems to be that relationships are complicated messes that can lead to comfort and love as easily as pain and heartbreak.
LIGHT IT UP
TyM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up, you light up the room (Baby)
Ich krieg' nie genug von dir
Ich bin nicht genug für dich
Es ist spät, es ist hell
Und ich spür' mein' Moment
Und mache, eigentlich will ich zu dir
Und ich weiß, das ist kein Zufall oder Glück
Denn ich kann dich nicht verlieren
Light it up
Du und ich, wir bleiben zusammen
Du und ich, wir sollten nie sein
Du und ich, wir bleiben zusammen
Nimm meine Hand
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up, you light up the room
Baby, light it up
Ich krieg' nie genug von dir
Das ist, wie es läuft
Was altes wird zu neu
Im Loop
Drei-, vier-, fünfmal hast du mir schon gesagt
Durch die Blume, dass du mich eigentlich liebst
Und ich seh', was du fühlst, doch du willst verstecken
Baby, light up the room mit dir
Light it up, up, up, up
Du und ich, wir bleiben zusammen, -sammen, -sammen
Du und ich, wir sollten nie sein
Du für immer es auch manchmal begreifst
Baby, es brennt
Ups, es ist wieder passiert
Wohin soll das alles gehen?
Renn' vor mei'm Schatten, werd' schon blind
Du bist meine Therapie (yeah)
Du bist mein' Sonnenschein (Baby)
In dem Zimmer so dunkel (Baby)
Und ich weiß, es war nie leicht (Baby)
Aber deine Augen funkeln
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up (Baby)
Baby, light it up, you light up the room
Baby, light it up
(Light it up, light it up, light it up)
Baby, light it up
(Light it up, light it up, light it up)
Ba-Baby, light it up
Baby, light it up, you light up the room
Light it up
Du und ich, wir bleiben zusammen
Du und ich, wir sollten nie sein
Du und ich, wir bleiben zusammen
Nimm meine Hand
(Baby, light it up, up, up, up)
(Baby, light it up, up, up, up)
(Baby, light it up, up, up, up)
(Baby, light it up, up, up, up)
(Baby, light it)
