Passion Pit song referring to Colin Sylvia?

Featured Replies

Posted

I was listening to Passion Pits new album yesterday and came across the song 'Cry like a Ghost'.

The Chorus goes:

'Sylvia, right back where you came from

You're a pendulum, heartbroken and numb but

Sylvia, no one's gonna tell you when enough's enough

Enough is enough'

I think the pendulum reference and 'enough is enough' was very relevant as we see the best and worst from Col.

Ah made me laugh

 

Who is Passion Pit?

Well i guess it shows the age difference.


I saw "Passion Pit" and "Colin Sylvia" in the title and straight away thought he had been seen at a nightclub on a school night somewhere.

Another can of worms opens -_-

If he scored as well on the scoreboard as he does in the nightclubs, would be a monty for All Aust ??

Some just luv a good time.

I heard this on JJJ and forgot who sang it - thought the same thing.

It would be funny if it wasn't such a sore spot.


I always thought the chorus of Bob Dylan's song 'Silvio' was relevant.

Silvio

Silver and gold

Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold

Silvio

I gotta go

Find out something only dead men know

Also, it's not an age thing, that Pason Pit stuff is cliche, pretentious and tuneless. Not hating, just saying.

Passion shitt

What about Sylvia by Pulp? No connection tenuous or otherwise, but a fine tune from an underrated album.

Also free hint of norks in the album cover if you're keen.

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
