Last Night

Lucy Spraggan's song "Last Night" is a humorous yet poignant exploration of the consequences of excessive drinking and the unpredictable behavior it can lead to. The lyrics recount a series of embarrassing and regrettable actions that the narrator experiences after a night of heavy drinking. From professing love and proposing marriage to getting arrested and making a fool of herself, the song captures the chaotic and often regrettable nature of drunken escapades.

The song's narrative is filled with vivid imagery and relatable scenarios, such as blaming drunken confessions on vodka, tequila, and other spirits. Spraggan's clever wordplay and witty lines, like "Do you like my bracelets? Oh wait, they’re handcuffs," add a comedic touch to the otherwise serious theme of alcohol-induced regret. The repeated wish to stop drinking and smoking socially, coupled with the acknowledgment of the difficulty in doing so, highlights the internal struggle many people face when trying to change their habits.

Despite the humorous tone, the song also touches on deeper themes of self-awareness and the desire for self-improvement. The narrator expresses a longing to wake up without a hangover, avoid embarrassing situations, and take control of her life. However, the final lines reveal a sense of resignation and acceptance of her youthful indiscretions, as she admits she doesn't really want to learn to behave just yet. This blend of humor, regret, and self-acceptance makes "Last Night" a relatable and entertaining anthem for anyone who has ever experienced the ups and downs of a wild night out.
