Something About This Song

I bought the Daft Punk album Discovery back before I turned twenty-one. I loved the song “Around the World” and wanted the CD. It was also a popular song that was being played both on the radio and at the college dances. When I broke up with my boyfriend I turned to music hardcore and spent a lot of lonely nights surrounding myself with music I could hide in.
“Something About Us” was a track that stuck out to me immediately. The lyrics are so few and simple but I’ve always felt like it really spoke to the emotion of the situation being described. At this current point in my life, I’m dealing with a chronic case of “Bad Timing” it seems. Dancing with Nicole the other night to this song, which I haven’t honestly heard in about a year, it was not strange that I remembered all the words (that’s the way my brain works) but strange that I remembered the feeling this song always brings out in me. It fit perfectly with the mood of the night that Nicole and I had cultivated. Relevant to my life or not this is a song that I think will always make me feel.


Something About Us
By Daft Punk

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us I want to say
Cause there's something between us anyway

I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there's something about us I've got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life
I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life
