The-1975 - Being Funny In A Foreign Language
“Oh Caroline” Is The Fifth Song Included In The 1975’s Fifth Studio Album Being Funny In A Foreign Language. The Track Has Been Described As A “deceivingly Dark Melodic Pop Anthem” And The Lyrics Are Themed Around “all-Consuming Love”. On The Song’s Spotify Listing Matty Healy Claims There Is No Namesake Behind “Oh Caroline” – Despite Previous Speculation That The Track’s Subject Was Caroline Flack. “It’s An Invented Character Where The Cadence Really Mattered. It Couldn’t Be ‘Oh Linda’ Or ‘Oh Jane’ – You Had To Have A Three-Syllable That Really Works.” A Snippet Was Played During The Zane Lowe Interview On October 12 2022 Ahead Of The Album’s Release. Tim Healy Who Featured On The 1975’s Song “Don’t Worry” With His Son And Lead Vocalist Matty Has Labeled “Oh Caroline” As His Favorite Song On The Album. “The Chorus Of This Song Came First—‘Oh Caroline/I Wanna Get It Right This Time/’Cos You’re Always On My Mind’—and It Just Felt Really Really Universal. I Was Like ‘OK This Doesn’t Have To Be About Me. It Doesn’t Have To Be “I Was In Manchester In My Skinny Jeans.”’ You Don’t Need To Have Lived A Story To Write One. Caroline Is Whoever You Want It To Be—you Can Change That Name In Your Head. Sometimes We Call Songs Like This ‘“song” Songs’ Because They Can Be Covered By Other People And Still Make Sense. Well ‘“getting Cucked ” I Don’t Need It’ Would Be A Weird Line For Someone But It’s Close Enough.“ –via Apple Music October 14 2022
