The Reviews about True Love Waits (page 2/ 4)
------ performed by Radiohead


i'm listening to this song right now... | Reviewer: Kristin | 3/11/08

...and it just feels like it's about unrequited love. unrequited love is trapped in the attic and it will fuel itself on whatever it can get.

I say it just feels like u.l. because that is one thing I know in my bones. It can last 10 years and it is fueled on a look for months, a meaningful comment for a year, a night up late talking for 2, a kiss for 5 years.

maybe not what the writer intended? but to me that's how I feel when I hear it.



I woke up sucking a lemon | Reviewer: KidA, KidA | 2/14/08

This song is NOT ABOUT the story he read in the newspaper, but inspired by. It's probably about unrequited love, or whatever he had in mind. I view it about unrequited love. It's not about waiting for love, but wanting love but only able to wait. I believe. The beauty is, the song is so beautiful and such that anyone can relate to it. The people that 'translated it line for line' ...well lets just say I find it surprising that such simple minded people (simple minded enough to think you can know what he means) would even like a band as deep and beautiful as Radiohead. This is, in my opinion, the greatest song of all time.



?Love? | Reviewer: Tom | 1/12/08

I believe this song is about the end to a bad break-up, much like myself....It could be about his first love that he never quite is able to clear his head of or just an ex. He will go on living life still believing that no matter what someday they will be together again if its meant to be only b/c it makes him relieved of all the feelings and pain he's feeling from the fact of now being alone. I think the message trying to be expressed is rather clear. He is in love with who ever the song is about and he would be willing to do anything and everything to have that somebody back but he knows in the end that if it is True Love and they are suppose to be together they will someday. This is exactly how i still feel about you baby after 8 months....i hope life is good...i'll always be waiting



This is what the song says to me... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/6/08

I believe he's trying to let someone know that he'll do anything to keep them from leaving. He wants to take away this persons pain. He's saying that the idea of love is beautiful, but it has its dark sides too. He wants them to stay through the darkness. He wants them not to leave. He's hoping that if it is 'True Love' it will wait and that, some how, they will end up together in the end... this is if you believe in love.
I for one do not, but its a beautiful fairytale... -Baby



here we go | Reviewer: matt | 1/6/08

This song IS about a story that Thom read in the papers. About a young boy who was stuck in his attic for weeks and survived on lollypops and crisps (or chips), purely junk food. He was inspired by the child's story and decided to write a song. That's it. This isn't analyzing it, some things aren't as deep as you'd think. Some things are. Just enjoy the wonderful song, my friends.



I`m also waiting | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/26/07

Only he knows what he meant...Being a songwriter myself I think no one can crack my codes.So if no one can crack mine,how the hell they can crack genius like Thom...



In my humble opinion... | Reviewer: AK | 10/31/07

This is what I think the song is about verse for verse...besides the obvious that the theme is waiting for love....

Even if he believes in something else, even if life experiences has thought him more, he will remain naive and in love and wait for her or 'dress like your niece'...in other words stay innocent with his love for her.

Waiting for someone is not living, you long to feel alive again like you once did with this person, thus 'killing time' until they come back...and if they do....but the writer is naive and ignorant to posibillities of reality (like a child) so he will wait.

True love waits, 'in haunted attics' or in darkness even when all hope is lost....and it also lives on 'lollipops and crisps'.... Thom says "I read an article about a child who was between 5-8 yrs old who was left on his/her own for a week in a house when his parents left on hoilday and he lived on lollipops on crisps. True"....Therefore love can also live on the bare minimum, all it takes sometimes is a simple kiss to ignite your soul so it can live AND wait for this person in order to feel that again.

I think thats it...hopefully I helped out.



true love | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/28/07

i heard this song in the background of an advertisement and had to buy the album. it is so heartfelt, and it always makes me cry. i dont even know what it's about, except for true love and how it waits.



Only | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/21/07

stop trying to understand it, just feel it.
you might find that it works a lot more than understanding.



Potato chips | Reviewer: Dom | 10/13/07
