alert for you guys.
Tell them what we got going on.
Alright so today we're listening to an artist named [N] Nick Lowe and the song we're checking
out is called Cruel to be Kind which honestly the song title is conflicting so I'm ready
to hear the lyrics to this one for sure.
If you are new here to the channel hey we got a slogan we gotta give the people what
they want and we asked you guys to do a couple things before we get started.
Alright guys so it would help us out if you like this video and subscribe to our channel
and it would help you out if you turn on your post notification bell you get a notification
when we post a video and we never miss out on hanging out and listening to some good music together.
Let's go ahead and get right into it.
Sorry if y'all hear me sniffing your boys allergies are killing me today but Nick Lowe.
He was out at the soccer bank being coached today and all that wind got to him.
Two dubs back to back.
Our soccer team, Ky's team, 6-0 undefeated.
We keeping that thing going.
Nick Lowe, Cruel to be Kind.
Check it out.
[C]
[G] [F]
[G] [C]
[G] [F]
[G]
[C] Oh I can't take [Em] another.
So [F] you say you're my friend.
[D]
I'm at my wit's [C] end.
You say your love [Em] is fortified [F] but that don't [Em] [Dm] coincide.
With the things [F] that you do and when [Em] I ask you [F] to be nice.
[G] You say you're my friend.
You gotta [F] be cruel [G] to be kind.
[Em] In [A] the right [F] measure.
Cruel [G] to be kind.
[Em] It's a very [Am] good sign.
[F] Cruel [G] to be kind.
Means [A] that I love [G] you baby.
You gotta be cruel to be kind.
You gotta be cruel [C] to be kind.
[F]
[G] [C] Well I do my best [Em] to understand dear [F] but you still mystify.
[G] I wanna [C] know why I pick [Em] myself up.
Off the ground.
To [F] have you [Em] knock me back [Dm] down.
Again [F] and again.
And when [Em] I ask you to [F]
explain.
[G] You say you gotta [F] be cruel [G] to be kind.
[Em] In the [A] right [F] measure.
Cruel [G] to be kind.
[E] It's a very good sign.
[F]
Cruel [G] to be kind.
[Em] Means [A] that I love [G] you baby.
You gotta be cruel to [C] be kind.
You gotta be cruel to be kind.
This is a really, really kind of [N] cool band.
But one thing I wanna say and you guys tell me if y'all hear it too.
At the part where he goes the cruel to be kind and it's kind of backing and stuff in it.
That part right there and I love to do this.
I love to compare.
Like say oh this reminds me of what.
You're definitely your favorite part.
It gives me a Blue Oyster Cult vibe right there. Really?
I was definitely getting.
The cruel to be kind.
Maybe it's the set up.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe it's the set up.
I can definitely get you.
And just the decade.
I definitely get like the Beatles.
Just the authentic sounding guitar.
It's just that short snippet.
Everything else nothing like.
Yeah.
But I'm still trying to figure out like the exact meaning of the song.
He's talking about all the ways that this girl has been making him.
Saying kind things to him and then letting him down over and over again.
And then she says well it's cruel to be kind.
Right.
So I'm trying to figure out.
Like I'm ready to hear more of the song and see if I can get a grasp on it.
See I thought he was saying like.
They were saying like in order to be kind I first have to be cruel first.
Yeah.
See that.
But that's what I'm saying.
It's conflicting so that's what I'm trying to figure out.
But this girl is being kind to him and then letting him down over and over again.
Let's check it [C]
back.

[G] [Em] [A] [F]
[G] [Em] [F]
[N] I liked it especially at the end.
After the pause.
The chorus when they really picked up.
I really really liked it.
And they they began to harmonize at that point too.
Cruel to be kind.
Nah nah nah nah.
Not that the whole thing was cool.
I don't know exactly what decade it's from but it gave me 70's.
Yes.
For sure.
It gave me 70's for sure.
Definitely wish I would have gotten that tid bit of information but if I had to guess I
would say 70's.
I liked the sound and you know the lyrics.
At the beginning I was like I gotta hear what this song's about.
I didn't know what it was gonna be about.
And listening to the lyrics.
I don't know if I've got it figured out, but I think he's talking about
He said you've got to be cruel to be kind like that's how it's designed
So I guess she's saying in order for me to be kind
I feel a little bit cruel to get something out of it for my see that that's what I was
She was saying though in order to be kind I first had to be cruel Yeah
Like she like she has I have to have a reason to want to be kind to you
It's kind of what I'm getting at because she kept letting him down over and over so I don't know if I'm correct
That's kind of what I got from the lyrics
A little bit up for you to kind of decide on your own what the meaning was
But I I thought that that was a cool band.
I thought it was an artist Nick
Lo sounds like a name is when it was suggested you pulled this suggestion
I don't know, but it could have been the whole band.
I don't know anything about their brand new
So that is one thing we love about the channel.
We do a new artist
You guys will give us so much information about them down in the comments
So please we ask y'all with this one drop down below give us some information kind of a backstory about Nick Lo
It's a person or the girl
If it wasn't such a like person sounding name
I would have looked into it to make sure but I didn't look into it after this but I like Van Halen though
Was it bond was it Bon Jovi how many songs we do
You guys came for us for that work, but I mean I get it now
But I definitely want to check out some more.
I would say that this one
It really just reminded me of the 70s decade.
It was a good listen.
Chill mellow
Yeah, you know so I would like to check out more and grow and see what they've got
But guys, thank y'all so much for that suggestion as we always send y'all out of here every day.
