| | Black Star Lyrics Artist(Band):Radiohead
Well what am I to do? I know all the things around your head and what they did to you What are we coming to? What are we gonna do? Blame it on the black star Blame it on the falling sky Blame it on the satellite that [beams(maybe "brings")] me home The troubled words of a troubled mind I try to understand what is eating you I try to stay awake but it`s 58 hours since that I last slept with you What are we coming to? what are we gonna do? Blame it on the black star Blame it on the falling sky Blame it on the satellite that beams me home I get on the train and I just stand about now that I don't think of you I keep falling over I keep crushing out When I see a face like you What am I coming to? I just don't know anymore I Blame it on the black star I Blame it on the falling sky I Blame it on the satellite that beams me home Tonight, this is killing me Tonight, this is killing me If you find some error in Black Star Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Black Star black star | Reviewer: bianca | 8/20/09 this might seem strange, and i do believe its about a troubed relationship but also maybe depression within the female , " he comes home and she's still in her dressing gown" . it reminds me of some books of read. and black star , is the hopelessness of everything and the lack of power he has to help her. Great Review | Reviewer: Ballack | 6/2/09 I was moved to write this....Terry's interpretation seems SPOT on! I agree with everything said, it is surely about a troubled relationship. It is in a bad state yet the couple is trying to fight for its survival...the last verse implies that they decided to break up, yet still realised that they needed each other, hence "I keep falling over I keep passing out when I see a face like you". Anyway, great song - one of my favourites. <3 Radiohead Analysis | Reviewer: Terry | 5/2/09 Ok, so I made this "small" analysis of this song and I wanted to share it with you! x) So, generally this song is about two people, a couple facing some difficulties & hard parts in tehir relationship. Although at first sight it seeems it is one of the two addressing the other, I believe they are addressing each other. In other words, they are aiming these lyrics at each other simultaneously. (If u know what I mean?!) Both people are thinking and contemplating, most probably in the evening ("Tonight, this is killing me"), coz thats when most people think of stuff like that described in the song. The General concept of the song is that both people want more than anything to be together, but because of some situations and responsibilities it is difficult. I would like to present the general story in the song by grouping together and analyzing lines: 1, 3, 9, 19, 16, and 17. These lines are similar in the fact that they have the same melody, rhythm, etc etc. Through these lines the understanding and sympathy between the two people is evident ("I know all the things around your head and what they do to you", "I try to understand what is eating you"). They share a common routine ("I get home from work and you're still standing in your dressing gown"). They love each other. The line " The troubled words of a troubled mind" most probably refer to a recent argue between the two people, which might actually be the cause of their thoughts re their relationship at the momment, as mentioned previously. However, despite any argue, they still try to understand the cause of the argue and what is "eating the other person's mind". The phrase "I dont know any more" (line 12) is significantly placed before line 16 and might indicate some freezing in the relationship. Subsequently, we see each individual alone "getting on the train not thinking of each other" (line 16). In other words, each one tries to get along on his/her own & thus are both described in an everyday setting with many other strangers (i.e train). Theis love is accentuated by the fact though, that wherever they go, they still think of each other & everything reminds them of their partner ("a face like you"). More specifically, the phrase "I keep falling over I keep passing out when I see a face like you" (line 17) refers to that feeling in the stomach when you see someone reminding you of your love and all of a sudden ALLL the common memories come to ur mind making you feel a mixture of dizziness and enthusiasm at the same time. The questions inserted between these above described lines show an uncertainty about the future in both people and even in the reader/listener of the song. Both partners WANT to fight it and manage to be together. After they have stayed alone for a while (line 16 & 17) each one questions himself (the pronoun "I" is used instead of "We" in this question) what he/she is coming to and he/she immediately realizes that he/she cannot go on without the other one ("I'm going to melt down"). In conclusion, they both know they love each other more than anything and they are aware of the fact that their misunderstandings, argues, or even the one-person-ignoring-the-other-one are not their faults, but the cause of some external force keeping them apart. The external force can be the "Black star, Falling Sky, Satellite". It is something over which they seemingly dont have control, but in fact they can fight it together and their love can subsequently win!! I dont know if you agree with my analysis of this song, as interpretations are very subjective etc! camilo | Reviewer: camilo | 3/30/09 i love these fellows, but this song makes me feel a kind of "musical orgasm"... a few days ago i went to a concert of radiohead, the last one of the sudamerican tour in chile (i'm chilean) it was amazing... i don't know how the sadness of their music and lyrics make me feel so happy. i'm so glad Black Star! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/23/09 Oh My God.... I loved this song straight away when i first heard it ... it was just the power in Thom's voice during the chorus ... it just sends chills down my spine... he is just an amazing singer, i take my hat off to Radiohead! Love Them!! <3 the best | Reviewer: julianna | 2/13/09 This song is defintely one of the top not just Radiohead songs, but songs I've ever heard. The lyrics just give me chills and the way Thom Yorke sings this is just too amazing, you can almost hear the pain in his voice. There is so much meaning behind the lyrics, and I'm sure almost anyone can relate to them. I can't stop listening to this song ! Radiohead destroys childerens petting zoo | Reviewer: storff | 11/19/08 I like the song because of the title its black star. My other favorite thing is just before the chorus area when the leading guitar does that loopy run. That is really exciting for me to hear. really nice | Reviewer: yavuz | 12/31/07 this is probably the best radiohead song.not just because of its lyrics at the same time becasue of the sound .it is really amazing Amaizing song | Reviewer: Jose | 11/26/07 I just read the lyrics and I'm amazed! that just happened to me!! it's hard to describe the feelings Review the song Black Star The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
