The comfort that is found in the company of another person is something to hold onto. However, grappling with the potential that they do not hold you in the same regard can be a painful thing to manage. In the end, the fragile love born in these kinds of relationships is undeniably worth it.
In the song “All’s Well That Ends Well,” Rainbow Kitten Surprise starts off with the soft strumming of a guitar. Gradually, instruments are added on top of each other while vocals blend in to create a dynamic, powerful melody.
The song builds on itself in unexpected, beautiful ways. The heartbeat-like bass of the drum becomes a loud clock-like ticking sound which adds a new level of depth to the song’s message through metaphoric symbolism.
In the very first verse, the vocalist sings, “Held in your arms, the hole in my head grows whole.” He describes how a certain emptiness can be filled with the company of someone who makes you feel whole.
The underlying heartbreak in the words becomes clear especially as the vocalist sings “Hang your head and cry if you like, but all is well that ends.” It is important to find the love to let go of a person when they do not hold you in the same regard as you hold them. Good things often come to an end, and this song is about coming to accept this reality.
Rainbow Kitten Surprise is an alternative rock indie band based in America that produces a diverse selection of music. The band features lead vocalist Ela Melo, Darrick “Bozzy” Keller (guitar, backup vocals), Ethan Goodpaster (electric guitar), and Jess Haney (drums).
The unusual name of the band was suggested moments before an open mic night by the members’ friend who was, at the time, in a post-surgery haze. The name stuck ever since then.
The song “All’s Well That Ends Well” was released in Rainbow Kitten Surprise’s album “RKS” in 2015. It currently has almost 60,000,000 streams on Spotify. The band is most known for their songs “It’s called: Freefall,” “Cocaine Jesus,” and “Devil Like Me.”
