Misinterpretation
[edit]From the composition section: The refrain "boy" was originally viewed synonym for “wow”, though "new urgency" was pumped into the track, adding extra pathos.[21] Ocean reminisces about his "first time", with an ex-lover who is addressed as "boy" during the song.[22] The track is an apology to an unnamed lover.[23] Lines like "a tornado flew around my room before you came," serves as a confession, and "excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn't rain in Southern California" outlines Ocean's own grief about the situation, admitting the situation got out of control.[23]
Not only is this confusing, but it misinterprets the articles that it is linked to. It's almost as if whoever wrote this was trying to make too much of a connection. It sounds like he referred to his love interest as "boy" throughout the song, instead of using it once as an exclamation. What does an unnamed lover and the excuse that a tornado flew around his room have to do with his sexuality? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.183.230.203 (talk) 19:46, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
