Paroles de High Hopes

Panic! At The Disco
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Mama said
Fulfill the prophecy
Be something great
Go make a legacy
Manifest destiny
Back in the days
We wanted everything, wanted everything
Mama said
Burn your biographies
Rewrite your history
Light up your wildest dreams
Museum victories
Everyday
We wanted everything, wanted everything
Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and I hate to see you waiting
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Mama said
It's uphill for oddities
The stranger crusaders
Ain't ever wanna be
The weird and the novelties
Don't ever change
We wanted everything, wanted everything
Stay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come down
Stay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come down
Mama said don't give up, it's a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and I hate to see you waiting
They say it's all been done but they
Haven't seen the best of me, eh eh eh
So I got one more run and it's gonna be a sight to see, eh eh eh
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes

Explication de High Hopes

«High Hopes» consiste à rechercher vos rêves sans hésiter et à les voir se concrétiser. Avoir de grands espoirs est une phrase qui signifie avoir:

un fort sentiment que quelque chose de bon va arriver ou se réaliser


Tout au long de la carrière de Panic! At The Disco et de Brendon Urie, le groupe a dû faire face à des défis et à des changements. Le début du voyage de Panic! Était semé d’embûches financières. Brendon Urie, essayant de joindre les deux bouts, a travaillé dans un Smoothie King pour soutenir sa carrière musicale. Tout en créant leur emblématique «I Write Sins Not Tragedies», le groupe ne pouvait pas se permettre de payer des musiciens professionnels, les laissant enregistrer un membre d'un groupe de collège jouant une note à la fois.


En dépit de ces difficultés, Urie, le dernier membre restant du groupe, a continué à lutter pour ses objectifs et a mérité une nomination aux Grammy Awards, un passage au spectacle de Broadway Kinky Boots et de nombreuses autres éloges.

À la sortie de la chanson, Brendon a révélé son inspiration derrière "High Hopes" sur Twitter et Instagram, ainsi que dans la description de la vidéo sur YouTube.


J'ai passé trop de temps à diminuer mes attentes, inquiet de la sensation d'échec. J'ai atteint un point quand j'ai réalisé que je devais viser haut et échouer, échouer, échouer afin de continuer à grandir. Cette chanson est pour tous ceux qui m'ont aidé à aller plus loin. Je vous remercie.



La chanson a été publiée une demi-heure avant l'heure prévue sur la chaîne youtube de Panic!, accumulant un peu plus de 1 000 vues, avant d'être officiellement publié via une vidéo séparée et sur Spotify.

“High Hopes” est le troisième extrait de Pray For The Wicked. Il était précédé de «Say Amen (Saturday Night)» et «(Fuck a) Silver Lining», publiés deux mois plus tôt.
