(Do you follow her on Snapchat? Girlfriend doesn’t have time for any of that.) So my second guess? Perrie. Off the top, I’m willing to bet cold, hard dollars that Gigi Hadid has never begged anybody to stay anywhere. Stand out lyrics: “She’s crying out that she loves me / Holding my hands so I won’t leave / Cause baby don’t wanna be lonely / She says, ‘I just want you to hold me’”

(But I am assuming it’s code for “singing a song about hooking up after a few beverages.”) And for some reason, he’s requesting they disclose everything they’re thinking while he tells them he’s never done “this” before. (But don’t let me spoil the song “dRuNk” for you.) So ultimately, he’s talking to someone.


Enter: The first of Zayn’s “club jams” - a chance for him to express just how much of a ladies’ man he is, particularly while drunk. Stand out lyrics: “I’ve done this before / Not like this, not like this” Either that, or he’s finally written a song about me and just never said anything.

And unless there was another woman he was engaged to in his early twenties, I’m guessing he’s using “iT’s YoU” to process what I can only imagine was an unfortunate end. He alludes to letting his scars bleed, he talks about learning lessons - ultimately, he sounds like all of our LiveJournals circa 2006, post-first serious breakup. (And don’t any of you dare argue with me.) Via his glorious high-notes, Zayn uses this jam to wax poetic over what seems like a woman who’s completely over his shit. Perrie or Gigi? Considering this song is a beautiful buzzkill, I’m saying it’s the former. Stand out lyrics: “So my silence won’t / be mistaken for peace / Am I wrong for wanting us to make it?” Especially since a relationship like this sounds like a lot of unnecessary drama and work. So while Gigi appears in the video, and we’re meant to believe he wrote this with her in mind, you also can’t help but think this song is entirely reactionary that it’s his very public break from his boy band band alter-ego. Back in his 1D days, we never would’ve heard him drop the f-bomb, let alone using it to describe sex. Like maybe this is Zayn’s persona in a relationship, and in real life he’s all about watching Jessica Jones and eating Doritos.īecause I mean, here’s the thing: Zayn’s using Mind of Mine to grow up. But at the same time, with the track over-romanticizing what can only seem like a seriously tumultuous relationship, I also hope it’s more abstract. Perrie or Gigi? Well, considering Zayn’s currently with Gigi, I hope beyond hope this song is about her. “PiLlOwT4lK” Stand out lyrics: “In the bed all day, bed all day, bed all day / fucking and fighting on” This song literally consists of Zayn’s album title being repeated over and over, so unless “mind of mine” is code for “I love you Gigi,” this is his album equivalent of opening the door and saying, “Welcome to my crib.”Ģ. “MiNd Of MiNdD (intro)” Stand out lyrics: “Open up and see what’s inside of / my mind” I promise.Įven though I don’t get why you TyPeD aLmOst EvErY SoNg TiTLe LiKe tHiS.ġ.

And to prove it, we’ve combed meticulously through each and every song you wrote and sifted through every possible reference to your grown-ass life. From references to ex-girlfriends (see: Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards) to songs undoubtedly inspired by main squeeze Gigi Hadid (maybe), Zayn is using his solo debut to stand atop a platform and scream, “I’m not in a boy band anymore!”ĭon’t worry, Zayn. Exactly one year after Zayn peaced out of One Direction, he’s given us Mind of Mine, an 18-track glimpse into his mind, body, and soul.Īnd what a gorgeous glimpse it is.
