Maps is undeniably incredible even though the title still doesn't make any sense to me and I don't now what Maps is supposed to mean (I don't buy that "My Angus Please Stay" story).

Really? Huh. I never thought to question it.

It’s Blitz really is is great but this album holds a special place in my heart. I saw them in London when they toured for this album and I don’t think I’d ever been as immediately blown away by a lead singer as I was by KO.

"Really? Huh. I never thought to question it." the explanation or why she's singing "maps, they don't love you like I love you"? I mean that sounds like she is really into cartography. It's not M.A.P.S., it's 'maps'. And this story about her actually crying in the video because Angus didn't show up...it's not like the song was written the time the video was shot. This all sounds like apocryphal stretching to me.

I just imagined it like she could tell someone was planning to leave her and consulting figurative or literal maps that will show him the path out of there.

I had never heard that this was about someone named Angus. Now it's gonna make me think about 6 dollar burgers.

Haven't heard the rest of this album either. I just had the Maps single. I should get around to fixing that I guess.

Angus was her boyfriend at the time, from Liars
