AEIOU (feat. PNAU)

Empire Of The Sun's song 'AEIOU (feat. PNAU)' is a reflective and introspective piece that encourages listeners to look within themselves for answers and understanding. The repeated refrain 'A E I O you should look inside, you should look inside of yourself' serves as a mantra, urging self-exploration and self-awareness. This simple yet profound message is a call to introspection, suggesting that the key to understanding and fulfillment lies within our own minds and hearts.

The lyrics delve into themes of searching for a sense of home and belonging, as well as the importance of the people we love. Lines like 'How far we go to find our home, when the people we love are the ones that we know' highlight the idea that true home and comfort are found in our relationships and connections with others. The mention of 'Emerald, silver and gold' could symbolize the preciousness of these relationships and the intrinsic value they hold in our lives.

This suggests a longing for the simplicity and purity of youth, and a recognition of how life’s complexities can dim our inner light. The reference to Tokyo and the caution against 'selling your one soul' speaks to the pressures and temptations of modern life, urging listeners to stay true to themselves and their values. Ultimately, 'AEIOU' is a reminder of the importance of self-reflection and staying connected to our true selves amidst the chaos of the world.
