Good & Evil Analysis (Tally Hall)

No one has made an analysis of the Tally Hall album Good & Evil yet so I decided that I, being a big fan of the album, decided to do it myself. Fun fact I had the whole video almost completed and then I listened to You & Me and I made a new interpretation of it that reshaped how I saw the whole album. Overall I think this is correct for the most part but we’ll see…

    Rob cantor after making 40 romance songs and making them all go hard :
  • I like to think "Turn the Lights Off" is also about how people gets to live with bad persons in their work, home or schools, and how we have to turn off the lights of our innocence to not get fooled by them

    I'm just gonna say it Cannibal is about... certain things that i won't say, but if you know, you know

    I clicked on this thinking it was a shitpost, but this is better I suppose.
  • It's interesting to see an analysis of a whole album that isn't Hawaii: Part II. I was particularly interested to see your interpretation of &, which I could agree with, as I've just done my own video on this, and I compared it with the 1980s song "I Won't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" by Nik Kershaw as they both feel like protest songs, with & stating what happens if that bomb detonates

    I think that turn the lights off is about how people can be evil in private (with the lights off, under the covers, etc) and its message is how everyone has these thoughts (everybody likes to get to get taken for turns, etc) but cant talk about or show them in public (all good devils masquerade under the light). With the main "plot" of the song being about a child on the verge of adolescence, realising that the adults in their life arent as good as they seem, which breaks the childs innocence (a callback to never meant to know.) The boy is also scared of maturing, and becoming that kind of person (the entire first verse). The song ends with the boy realizing that this is just a fact of life that he must live with, realising he must "walk the fire". I feel like that was a message in the music video as well.

    as someone who literally never analizes songs, this was definitely worth a watch!
  • @butchmcporksaw
    Turn the lights out could be a reference to drug abuse
  • @Nataka_Kurokawa
    You have an intriguing interpretation but A Lady was about Joe Hawley's grandmother.

    alright man i have to get this off my chest, CPG Gray is an educational youtuber, he has a video called Fable Of The Dragon-Tyrant and the lyrics of Sacred Beast match up with the same story. With the Sacred Beast being the Dragon.
  • @douwantabanana
    my intepration is that the 'good' part of good and evil is every song and the 'evil' part is that uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... i dunno
  • wow, this is really underrated! if you havent already, could you do Cojum Dips album "Cojum Dip" next maybe? (this is just a suggestion, not forcing)
  • @afosandstufflol
    Awesome! Love the analysis and how simple it is - not overexplained or anything.
  • @AutuMedianMusic
    Tally Hall Mentioned!! Also, amazing work on this analysis! This gave me a lot of new perspectives on the songs in the album (I thought Never Meant to Know was a song about humans never being able to know everything!) Keep up the great work!
