Tim: GJan’s off Lithuania, and I’ll ask you to bear in mind that this song significantly improves when it gets to the chorus.
Tom: I’m going to pronounce that name in the manner of a Hollywood-movie bullet being fired and ricocheting off some metal. G-JAN. Sorry, carry on.
Tim: No, for all I know you might be right. I mean, you’re probably not, but you might be.
Tom: You’re not wrong about it getting better at the chorus. It’s just a shame about… well, almost everything else.
Tim: Now it may not surprise you to learn that I don’t know any Lithuanian whatsoever, but fortunately YouTube user ‘I have a Cock’ has been kind enough to translate the lyrics in the comments.
Tom: Well, there’s a username that tells you all you need to know.
Tim: Nice, isn’t it? While I can now tell you that Tabletė means Pill, I still don’t really know what the song’s about, though it’s leaning towards the “this relationship’s not in a good place” area. That comes across in the sound, I think, and particularly in the verses, where she sounds almost vulnerable. The chorus is really quite different, and very much better for it, because that backing is (not to put too fine a point on it) somewhat banging.
Tom: It is, but can I remember any of it? Not even that chorus, let alone those slow verses. I don’t remember disliking it, I just… don’t remember any of it. But, sure, I’ll go with ‘somewhat banging’.
Tim: Good, because I like that. I like it quite a lot.
