The Rakes - Binary Love



Artist: The Rakes
Song: Binary Love
Album: Capture/Release
Year: 2005

"Can't you just pretend that we are more than friends? Despite the metal and wires I still have human desires..."

"Over and over she burns my circuits, I feel fire rushing through my wires, I can feel all the things that we can't share..."

"The satellites connecting us, protecting us, our makers have neglected us, it's not their fault, it's just the way..."


*A COMMENT: This song is quite 'geeky' so to speak... The interpretation of falling in love with a robot is a bit creepy to me, so the interpretation I give to this song is that it is about a long distance relationship that is carried out by computer and all its implications like not feeling the other person, the impersonal touch in it... You still get excited when you hear and see the other person through the computer, but in plain and hard terms you still "feel" the coldness of it as your desire of being there grows and burns.




And remember... If you liked it, buy it...
