Cloud 9 is a song released by the band Beach Bunny in 2020 during pandemic. Here the writer highlights the moments where she gets cheered up by the presence of her lover. She describes each and every scenario where she was all tired and unwilling to continue the daily life practices but when she’s loved and appreciated by her lover she gets pumped up with all the energy in world such that she imagines that now she has all the power and confidence to even fly. Here comparisons of two lives are depicted, with and without her lover. Here the artist displays life of a girl in love and her feelings. In recent years we’ve seen a rapid increase in the expression and openness of people. This has happened with the help of social media. Many of us were able to admit as well as display our interests. Social media gives us privacy as well as freedom to present ourselves in a way which makes us comfortable. It has brought a sense of awareness and has given us all a platform to explore and grow.
I don't wanna seem the way I do
But I'm confident when I'm with you
Lately all I feel is bad and bruised
Tired of tripping on my shoes
Beach bunny (band) through this song conveys a state that shows that we are not always confident enough to get up and face the world. We never know what might come in our way stepping out. Feeling low doesn’t lead us to our goal and with all the pressure to do better in our life we tend to give a moderate performance. Every day is not a perfect one. One may think that they are experiencing constant failure but this song gives a hope that with a good companion, everything is alright. Days are much better when there’s somebody listening to you and giving you their attention. Stars seem much brighter than usual. When in love, one feels levitating. It’s a feeling of euphoria that keeps us elevated and excited. World seems much divine and you feel like living these moments again and again.
But when he loves me I feel like I'm floating
When he calls me pretty I feel like somebody
Even when we fade eventually to nothing
You will always be my favorite form of loving
The writer describes what differences are experienced by her when she is with her lover. She emphasizes on the fact that she gets filled with confidence. She feels like she has got wings and she can fly. Appreciation from him is the most delightful and pleasant experience for her. Even if there are days when she’s not with him, she will always keep all his words and actions in her mind and will cherish them throughout her life because for her there is nobody else with whom she would share the same aura. In today’s world where public display of affection is seen, she just wants to be surrounded by him and feel loved. She addresses him as her favorite form of loving. The real love is unconditional and is not possessive. It knows only giving and sacrificing. The real love elevates and liberates. It gives immense joy. The real love is a great passion and is powerful. The love here does not mean here with a person only. Love has very deep and wide ramifications.
When I start to tumble from the sky
you remind me how to fly
Lately, I've been feeling un-alive
but you bring me back to life
Our life is made up of adventurous, exciting, surprising, challenging and many lovely moments. The one thing about life that is integral to it is existence. Life includes existence and without existence life cannot happen. Existence is however sometimes challenging. There are many who do not have the fortune to get good education, there are some who do not have access to food and shelter. For them existence is difficult and life is despicably harsh. But just like existence is an important feature about life, another such element is hope for someone who totally understands you and also you knowing them with all of your heart. Hope is what people cling on to when they find darkness taking over their lives. Hope is what gives way to survival. Survival and hope are important aspects for anyone and everyone as far as life and living is considered.
All the moments and circumstances that are being talked about in the song are ideal. We as human beings can’t always keep a check on each other. We have our own highs and lows, from which we overcome. Writer here is expressing the feeling that she feels around her lover. We always run after the fact that we will go where our destiny will take us. Nobody’s perfect enough to match everybody’s expectations. When we love somebody, we see and observe their good qualities over bad. Well that’s what love is. Accepting each other’s flaws and cherishing each other’s beauty. Life is about exploring our thoughts with each other. It’s about knowing and acknowledging one’s perspectives towards life. It’s about making time, place and people yours.
