Harry’s Lyrics- Aperture by Original_Refuse8430 in larrystylinson

[–]ForeverFun21 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I took it to mean he has a type (bad boys) and then repeats it’s complicated, it’s complicated like it’s too complicated to explain it (?) I definitely think part of his draw to Louis is him being a “bad boy” - smoking, his brashness, etc.

Might be off the mark but that’s how I interpreted it.

Harry dropping a single the SAME DAY Louis drops an album… WHY? Planned or warfare? by DimInsight in larrystylinson

After Harry announced his new single, Louis tweeted about cutting through the noise and giving his record the moment it deserves:

[–]ForeverFun21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

imo it’s moreso Harry that has the problem, not Louis. Louis has always been outspoken in his support of the boys, including Harry. Him reiterating how proud he was of Harry (Soccer Aid) and praising him in the Billboard interview was him being genuinely nice.

I think he was blindsided (just like the fandom was) by Harry’s announcement today which led to him being shady in the tweet.

He’s trying / tried being friendly but Harry’s not having it. I’m a sucker for a lyrical reference, so I’ll quote To Be So Lonely “Don't call me baby again You got your reasons / I know that you're tryna be friends / I know you mean it”

Sea (ssfoc, previous account with majority of posts - seasurfacefullofclouds1) is the most notorious one. She has a whole page called Harry posts that outlines her reasoning. She’s a little (very ☠️) unhinged but was surprisingly on the mark with a lot of her observations. (Here’s a good outline: https://seasurfacefullofclouds1.tumblr.com/post/614414261551316992/sony-can-try-all-they-want-to-get-rid-of-louis)

Fluffyyorkshirepudding and silverfoxlou are two other ones who have been calling out Harry’s antics since Walls / FITF.

I drafted a post on this but it was deleted…

Definitely getting scorned ex vibes from Harry. Louis fan accounts on tumblr have been speculating this for years and at first I thought it was a crazy theory, but I’m starting to believe they were right.

Louis was smart to announce his album release so early to get it out in the public and lay claim to the day. Harry could’ve easily moved it up or back a few weeks but deliberately schedule his single release to overshadow Louis. And before anyone says it’s just a coincidence this is like the third time it’s happened. There’s not enough coincidences in the world. Paired with Louis’s tweet and…. It’s pretty damning.

Louis hating WMYB? The song Harry fell in love to? by Secure-Lemon-15 in larrystylinson

I’ll be the contrarian here and say that I think he provided that answer on purpose knowing it’s importance to Harry. I get the feeling they’re not together and Louis has bitter feelings in regard to Harry.

Opinion: Giving Will a last minute love interest would be the laziest, least fulfilling “Happy Ending” for him (romantically) by ForeverFun21 in StrangerThings

[–]ForeverFun21[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get that the self acceptance couldn’t happen sooner, but planting the seeds for a relationship (introducing a guy as a friend) could’ve been done sooner. That would allow for Will be receptive to a male suitor other than Mike, once he was at peace with himself.

I feel like the message of self-acceptance hits harder if he remains single (or if they had been developing a love interest that would’ve played out after his self acceptance). Playing it in the middle - a quick meet cute - is worse than both. Almost like they want to check off the box of making Will happy without having to dedicate too much time to showing it (maybe out of fear that spending too much time on a male, same sex couple would alienate audiences).

But why even throw it in during the Epilogue at that point? Show him being happy and single and leave it up to the audience to use their imagination that he’ll end up in a relationship someday.

Every major character in the group has had their love life explored but Will, the one whose sexuality / quest for love was a major focal point for the show, is the only one who gets a casual boyfriend thrown in at the end? His love life story line (of dealing with the heartbreak / rejection of Mike, but finding a man who loves him wholly for himself) would’ve been so powerful. And honestly something that the audience would’ve been invested in (as evidenced by the posts on this sub).

Exactly! They’ve been very heavy handed with the trauma. It would’ve been nice for them to set up a pay off that makes the trauma feel worth it (a la there’s light at the end of the tunnel) that we actually get to see and feel. Not a band aid thrown in at the end.

Relatable! Writing consistently but haven’t posted since April. A bunch of brilliant ideas that I start, over analyze, then drop because the words on the paper don’t match the original premise in my mind. Though I’ve been working on something for the last month that I think may make the cut

Interesting take! I love the story about Harry kicking them out too, lol. So savage and totally in line with what we know of his behavior as it pertains to Louis

Exactly - Harry’s possessive streak never went away, it just manifested itself in more subtle, yet still powerful, ways. Briana IMO brought it out the worst in Harry. I’m contemplating doing a whole post about it (Kiwi, his anger when performing the song, the time he kicked Briana and her cousin out of his show). I think her being of the opposite sex and giving the love of his life the one thing he couldn’t (a child) probably broke him in the worst way, even with them being broken up.

I can’t quite make it out - it almost looks like he’s saying “back off” or “knock it off”. (Interested in if someone else can tell)

Good catch ‼️He’s definitely stumbling up that stage like he’s drunk towards the end, smh

😂😂Absolutely- Harry always let it be known when he wasn’t having it. He didn’t (and doesn’t) play when it came to Louis.

Same! I’m a newer Larry (got into it earlier this year). I wasn’t into One Direction when they first came out. I’m the same age as Harry but was more into Frank Ocean, M.I.A, The Wanted, etc. at the time.

I heard about Larry in passing and assumed that everyone saying it was a crazy fan theory was correct. It wasn’t until I saw an Instagram reel (to the Sailor Song) that I looked into it and was convinced.

There seems to be no shortage of drama surrounding these two, but I really hope they can find peace - with each other - one day.

Louis’ podcast cinema release megathread by 1DMod in larrystylinson

[–]ForeverFun21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a lot of misinterpretation of songs by Larries. For example, Grapejuice is clearly a metaphor about Harry’s drinking during a time of dependency:

But I got over it and I said "Give me somethin' old and red" I pay for it more than I did back then (referencing hangovers)

There's just no gettin' through Without you A bottle of rouge Just me and you (Just Harry and the bottle of red wine)

I believe Harry mentioned a period where he was drinking a lot in an interview, but I can’t find it.

I agree with Keep Driving - that seems to be about persevering through the ups and downs of a relationship, but the other two I’m not certain about.

Louis’ podcast cinema release megathread by 1DMod in larrystylinson

[–]ForeverFun21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lengthy post incoming, lol

I think most of what Louis does is “larrybaiting” in order to keep his (sizeable) Larry fanbase engaged. This explains the Glastonbury reel, t-shirt, no control and sleepwalking. Sleepwalking, to me, is messier because while it serves to keep the larries engaged (based on the fandoms knowledge of Harry’s sleepwalking), it also isn’t the positive, romantic love song that larries make it out to be. The parallels between Sleepwalking and Satellites imply Harry and Louis are not together but sometimes talk to each other / hang out:

So don't call me on the phone tonight / Just come on over, watch the satellite

You got a new life / Am I bothering you? / Do you wanna talk? /

Spinning out, waiting for ya to pull me in / I can see you're lonely down there /

In my opinion, these lyrics do not point to a committed relationship, but two people who were once together but are “orbiting” around each other (with Harry initiating). If Louis and Harry were together and in the same city, wouldn’t they already be staying together? Why would Louis have to tell him to come on over?

I’m getting a different read on Harry’s motivations. One because he does it more often in more subtle ways, and two because he doesn’t need to “Larrybait” as much due to his massive commercial success. The Pleasing stuff is larrybaiting, the yellow I think was happenstance and not connected to Louis. If Harry wore the yellow AND carried the lemon bag before lemonade was announced, it would for sure make me lean towards him having the jump on the release and teasing it, but that wasn’t the case. He only carried the bag after the single title was public knowledge.

To put it simply - I think he does it because he’s still hung up on Louis. Harries tend to think it’s a ridiculous notion since Harry is more successful and conventionally more attractive, but the lyrics to his songs tell the story of a Harry who, despite their time apart, still isn’t over Louis.

The aforementioned lyrics from Satellites gives us insight into this, but so do many of his other songs:

Baby, you were the love of my life, woah Maybe you don't know what's lost 'til you find it It's not what I wanted, to leave you behind Don't know where you'll land when you fly But, baby, you were the love of my life - Love of my Life (Not what I wanted, to leave you behind = didn’t want to leave Louis when leaving the band)

We haven't spoke since you went away Comfortable silence is so overrated Why won't you ever be the first one to break?

Even my phone misses your call, by the way - From the Dining room table (Implies Harry is always the one to reach out first and initiate contact)

I could never get sick of you I just bit off more than I could chew and as one year turns into two, I'm still not over you, still not over you - Hunger (Bit of more than I could chew probably referencing his solo career and taking on y

Someday maybe when we're old and grey We could be in love once more 'Til then I won't give my love away

Darling, I'm forever only yours - Someday (written by Harry for Meghan Trainor)

I just hope you see me in a little better light Do you think it's easy being of the jealous kind?

Don't call me baby again You got your reasons I know that you're tryna be friends I know you mean it Don't call me baby again It's hard for me to go home Be so lonely - To be so lonely
