On Broadway
myron and e Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Slow dancing under the stars
She's been waiting for the moon
She loves dancing in the dark
Feeling blue thinking of Broadway
Feeling blue, she's stuck on a replay
As the music's slowly fading
She stares at the first row
Then she knows she's only dreaming
The song "On Broadway" by Myron and E speaks to the highs and lows of pursuing one's dreams in the entertainment industry. The first stanza of the song talks about the allure and excitement of Broadway with its neon lights and the air of magic. However, as the song continues, it becomes clear that for someone who doesn't have enough to eat or any money, walking down the street loses its glitter and even the girls depress them. The chorus speaks to the naysayers who think that the singer won't make it on Broadway and will head back home on a Greyhound bus but concludes that he won't quit until he is a star on Broadway.
The song highlights the grit and determination of those working hard to succeed in the entertainment industry. The lyrics reflect the reality that for every success story, there are a multitude of failures and that sometimes the reality does not live up to the hype. However, the song also speaks to the power of resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity.
