Heart To Heart

The song 'Heart To Heart' by Mac DeMarco is a celebration of friendship and emotional connection that transcends time and distance. DeMarco sings about the importance of a friend, whether they are together or apart. The expression 'Heart to heart' symbolizes a deep and sincere bond that doesn't depend on physical proximity but rather on mutual understanding and affection. This message is particularly poignant considering the song is a tribute to the late friend and fellow musician, Mac Miller.

DeMarco mentions arriving late in this friend's life, implying they met later and therefore didn't witness each other's origins. However, this doesn't diminish the depth of the friendship they developed. The lyrics reflect the idea that even though they didn't share every moment from the beginning, the connection they built is genuine and significant. The repetition of the phrase 'Heart to heart' reinforces the notion of an unbreakable and enduring bond.

The song also addresses how easily this emotional connection can be assumed, even if life has placed them on parallel paths. DeMarco acknowledges that despite differences and separate lives, there is a sentimental understanding that binds them. This realization is a powerful reminder that true friendships are not defined by the frequency of meetings but by the quality and depth of the shared feeling. 'Heart To Heart' is therefore an ode to true friendship, which withstands time and distance, and celebrates the beauty of being emotionally connected with someone, no matter where they are.
