Of Monsters and Men - Love Love Love Meaning
Song Released: 2011
Love Love Love Lyrics
for stealing your heart away
Yeah, maybe I'm a crook
for not caring for it
Yeah, maybe I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad person
well baby, I know
And these fingertips
will never run through your skin
And those bright...

#1 top rated interpretation:I think that this song is about an aromantic person who’s in a romantic relationship with someone. The partner is in love with the aromantic, but they can’t return that love romantically. The partner might be hoping that the aromantic will fall in love with them anyway, but that’s not how it works.
The aromantic cares about the partner a lot, but not romantically. Even if they want to love romantically, they can’t.
The line about the partner being more important than the other people in the room shows how much the aromantic loves the partner and how important they are to them despite not being able to love them romantically. -

#2 top rated interpretation:The goat thing is in love with the sea creature but the song is in the sea creatures perspective and they can't love each other because the goat thing will drown if it goes in the water to pursue a relationship with the serpent and the relationship will go wrong because they're in two different circumstances.

#3 top rated interpretation:The song is very clear to me having been the guy that does nothing but love love love a girl who can't reciprocate. I met a girl in May of last year who quickly became one of my closest friends, we shared adventures, laughs, tears, goals, ambitions and all of our deepest and darkest secrets, and even some intimate moments. Like a fool I waited until November to express everything I felt for her and by this time she was in a relationship with another, she wept when she had to reject my love, and I know it hurts her to this day as we have the best chemistry and were probably meant to be, but she can't give me love in return, I know through mutual friends and from observing in her eyes that she loves me, but can't "Love me" and it's the worst feeling in the world. This song connects in a very real way, and I don't want to like it, but I love love love it still.

Only after recently hearing this song again has it gained a new meaning in my eyes. Like others stated in their comments, the song is fundamentally about a person not being able to reciprocate the love being given to them by their partner or someone who they care deeply for.
However, in my specific circumstances, I’m currently in a relationship with a person who cheated on me in the past. Happened years ago and it took me a long while to forgive them. Eventually, I have our relationship another chance. The trust was never the same and I always had doubts about whether it would happen again but decided to give it a try regardless. They proved it was a mistake and that they truly do love me and wouldn’t do it again. However, it’s been years now and even though I wouldn’t change a thing and wouldn’t go back and deny a second chance, I find myself plagued by the thoughts of what they did. They’ve bettered themselves for me and have been nothing but caring and loving and everything I want in a partner. Regardless of that, I know deep down I cannot love them fully as much as I want and as much as they deserve. They are a beautiful, wonderful, caring person that deserves better than what I’m giving and I know I do not want to marry a person unless I can give my entire heart to them. With this oerson I cannot. It’s taken me years to come to the realization, slowly tip toeing around the truth and denying my own feelings, thinking that it’s just doubt I can simply block out. I know soon I will have to tell them the truth.
Going back to the song, I too see myself as the “crook” for being this persons everything and not being able to see us the same way. I feel like I’m a terrible person for not knowing my feelings fully until recently. How unfair it is for my partner after having been with me and giving their all for so long. -
I think the song is about a cupioromantic person (someone who can't feel romantic attraction but wants to) and someone who loves the cupioromantic person and the cupioromantic person is frustrated because they want to love the other person but can't

I think, what the interpretation could also be, next to someone new to love or even a person that has broken someone's heart, could be an insecure person. Cause at the beginning, she is singing about her self in the worst way possible. She is a crook, a bad person, but she knows. In the meantime, there is the partner, who actually doesn't think that way at all. They love the insecure one so much and do anything for them, but the insecure one is so afraid to hurt the other person, to not be good enough or after all enough for them. So she builds a wall, and says she can't love, just so the other finally leaves them alone, but they won't. They won't cause they hope, if they keep it up, maybe the other sees that everything will be okay. A bit like Anna and Elsa, but as a romantic relationship between non relatives of course

to me it's funny that apparently everyone who has commented here tends to think that it is about a girl who somehow broke a guy's heart because of the first part of the song.
but then i realized that my interpretation of this song has a lot to do with who i am (and certainly it happens to everyone)
i don't see someone who broke another person's heart, i see someone who simply can't love, or doesn't know how to deal with this thing. maybe because it's a new thing to him/her, or maybe because he/she is affraid of getting hurt. the "almost"-loved-one knows about the mixed feelings this person is going through. maybe this person's indecision hurts the "loved one" in some way... maybe not.
i don't know if what i say here makes any sense to anyone, but to me the song is about how confusing love can be, and not necessarily about breaking someone's heart.

I think it’s about a woman who is married and has an affair with a man who falls in love with her, but she can’t or won’t leave her husband. I think she loves him back, but not enough. Because she is married she can’t truly ever love him the way he wants her to.

For me, this song is about a girl who sees this guy loving her, but she simply doesn't feel the same way about him, she simply can't love him and there's nothing she can do about it. She feels guilty, though, because she (unintentionally)"stole his heart", she made him love her when she can't do the same and can't even make herself care about it, so she feels like a bad person.
I've experienced this myself actually, and that's exactly how I felt, guilty and I just couldn't understand why I couldn't make myself love him (he was the perfect guy in every aspect, seriously), and the worst part was not being able to undestand. Well, not until I finally realized I was in love with my best (female) friend, and later that I simply could never love a boy like that. -
I think that it's about a person (the goat/minotaur) trying to love another person, but fails in doing so because of a rough past (Well, maybe I'm a crook for stealing your heart), and tries to break up with them (So I think it's best to forget before we dwell on it).
But, they fail because the other person (serpent) still loves them deeply. Feeling guilty, they commit suicide, or murder the person (serpent). (And these fingertips will never run through your skin).
The room filled with people who are less important than you are the person (serpent's ) friends, who first introduced them.
I dunno, just my idea :) -
I see it as an asexual being loved by another and is saddened by this
So yeah -
She is currently in a relationship. They had an encounter but he's not pressing her to continue. As she has made it clear she cannot return his love because she is with someone else. It's ultimately about a pure love that cannot be implemented because of the circumstances.
-
This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
-
I feel this song is about two people in dire times who are in love but they come from very different families e.g different religions, or from 2 countries at war.. Theres no way their society will let them live together..thats how great the divide between their people is..so one of them is convincing the other to forget their shared memories n to move on..
-
I think to two are a married couple having a hard time. The man is loving her even when she is being difficult, and its making her realize how much she loves him all over again. His patience with her brings her back to him. I love, love, love this song.

THis song is a perfect follow of Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen's relationship in the Hunger Games. Peeta is hopelessly in love with Katniss but Katniss doesn't know if she loves Peeta or Gale. If you look at the lyrics it is clear to all you Hunger Games fans. (If you haven't reda the books, READ THEM.) xx

I think this song is about 2 people in a relationship and how one of them isn't in love with the other even though the other is still hopelessly in love
