Horse The Band - Manateen

[916MattAttack]

One of the most under-rated songs by H.T.B.

[16bitpunkrock]

This song is the story of my life lol

[dittm3r]

Manateen is a song about manatees. Now that is funny.

Am I evil for giggling when I think of a manatee cutting itself or wanting its "body on the magazine, face on the tv, voice on the radio."

[Uuhmerica]

In the start of the song, I understood "I feel like I'm becoming a butterfly or a GOLDEN WII" xD

[1017supra]

good music

[FlandreScarletTepes]

To everyone having the big debate over whether or not this song is about a person:

The guy who is singing it says it is about the guy who is singing it. Also, the guy who wrote it says it is about the guy who wrote it. Also, the guy who wrote it is the guy who is singing it. Nathan Winneke says the song is about him. Nathan Winneke has something in common with the guy who wrote it and the guy who is singing it: he is also both the guy who wrote it and the guy who is singing it.

COINCIDENCE!?%

The lyrics are great. Just curious to hear other people's interpretation of the lyrics.

[FlandreScarletTepes]

@dittm3r The failure to meet the expectations of others and the subsequent "fuck you" to them when they suddenly pretend to care after it's way, way too late. Although I can see the obvious reference to suicide as quite literal, at the same time it manages to come across to me as a sort of "psychological death"; just giving up on those you can't seem to please or depend on, completely removing yourself from their lives and moving on with your own life.

Also, "a golden bee" sounds just adorable.

[dittm3r]

@FlandreScarletTepes "Hide my head in the darker water, and nobody sees. I cut myself, hope to draw you in. But even the sharks pass by. Somebody please explain." Sounds like nobody is there for our "Manateen" and he is crying out for help. Maybe a literal suicide isn't what he's singing about, but I don't hear anything about "fake" people, except himself.

I'm glad somebody listens to music the way I do. I enjoy hearing what others hear. And golden bees are adorable.
