Typecast was formed in the year 2000 in the province of Laguna. They were originally a quartet doing cover songs, and eventually started making their originals. As they were gathering more listeners with their increasing fame, two members left leaving them the option to obtain a new guitarist. This was later done in the inclusion of Steve Frank Badiola who did both vocals and the guitar. Recently, as of the release of their new album, the band has added another guitarist, Frank Fletchero, and in effect, Typecast is a quartet again.
Typecast released their debut CD Last Time, which is an independent release. The lead single of the album, also entitled Last Time, got the group into guesting in the radio station NU107's program In The Raw. Since then, their fame rocketed upward, primarily in the underground music scene. They were already performing in large musical events such as the Fete de la Musique 2005, and also did the opening act for the foreign band Good Charlotte in the latter band's Manila tour. The band, along with other famous Filipino rock bands like Kamikazee, Kjwan and Moonstar88; was also included in the compilation album Rok On! for Philippine Ragnarok Online.
They have also released their second album entitled The Infatuation Is Always There that feature 12 tracks of their distinct complex sound. With the release of the single The Infatuation Is Always There from the said album, they have exponentially increased their fame and their fanbase.
As of the moment, the band has released a new album, entitled Every Moss And Cobweb.
Will You Ever Learn
Typecast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you will never change
The days have past
The weathers changed
Should I be sorry? Could I be sorry?
I did it all for you
Hoping you would see
Your eyes are dull, your hands are clenched
But you think about yourself
Only but yourself
But what about
Un-lonely nights, romantic moments
The love
What about them
Throw it all away
You know me well
You know its wrong
Then what is it you feel?
You hide behind those perfect smiles
It won't fool me because you already did
But you think about yourself
Only but yourself
But what about
Un-lonely nights, romantic moments
The love
What about them
Throw it all away
The perfect dates, the sweetest kisses
What about them
Throw it all away
In the song "Will You Ever Learn" by Typecast, the lead singer reflects on a past relationship that has come to an end. The opening line reveals a feeling of frustration and futility as the singer questions the purpose of their efforts to save the relationship when it seems that the other person will never truly change. The passage of time is acknowledged, as is the change in weather which suggests a lengthy period has transpired since their split.
The next lines delve into the potential regrets and apologies of the singer- implying a longing to still be with the other person. However, their partner's attitude appears to be self-centered, with no acknowledgement of the love and romance that they shared in the past. The singer highlights the importance of the intimate moments and signifies that he is willing to throw everything away for the love that can be had with that other person. Nevertheless, the other party refuses to recognize the value of their past and seems to only focus on their own well-being.
The lyrics of "Will You Ever Learn" reflect on the universal themes of love and loss, pointing towards heartaches that often arise from a relationship that was once filled with love and happiness. The song emphasizes the importance of communication, vulnerability and compromise needed to maintain a healthy and long-lasting relationship.
