THE PRESSURE KIDS
Let’s take a look at the heartfelt journey that is “Fever” by The Pressure Kids. It’s like this song is a roller coaster ride that takes us through the ups and downs of love, complete with all those twist and turns that makes our hearts longing.
Straight away, you are drawn into the lyrics with their raw emotion and recognizable imagery. They speak about how it feels like they have gone through fever before which reminds one of how it feels when you’ve been in love but lost it.
As the song progresses, phrases such as “I’m coming over” can’t help but pull strings inside of you. It’s wanting for connection — or better yet someone to share your deepest thoughts and feelings with, despite what may appear as unlikelihoods.
What about that chorus? “Let’s start it over.” darkness shining its way through like a beacon reminding us that no matter how many times we fall in love there’s always hope for another new try.
But then again, things aren’t always rosy. In this bridge we get painfully honest about the agony and struggle within love relations. You could literally feel them being dragged down by loves turns out of nowhere.
And then just when you believe you cannot handle anymore, the haunting line comes in towards the end ‘it’s already over’. Love is not only beautiful but also ephemeral and fragile hence sometimes we have to give up for progress.
Finally, Fever is truly a human song that captures all aspects of messy , complicated , but ultimately beautiful love .It reminds us that whatever number times we have been hurt; we will still return because it is something which defines who we are as humans.
