I adore the Ting Tings, and the video for “Be the One” is superb. As a relatively new guy on the singles scene, the lyrics to this song kind of hit home for me: “I don’t wanna be the one / only overjoyed / and I don’t wanna be the one / making all the noise.”
In other words, why are you wasting my time if you don’t really give a fuck? Ha! And the subject of this post comes from the end of the song, because often the one who is smitten wasn’t the one who pursued in the first place.
