In order to punish the humans, God disabled their communication by creating different languages creating confusion between the Babylonians and leading to their demise

Could explain all the different tribes. Maybe they speak different languages. :)

isn’t it a play on words/phonetics (just like Stupid Love/Wanted Love). Babylon/Babble on

Has she confirmed the play on words in Stupid Love? Cause every time I heard her talk about Stupid Love she actually means she wants our stupid love :laughga:

Yeah. The author of OT is not that creative when you compare it with Greek’s Iliad and Odyssey:billie:

I hope it actually makes sense. Unlike SL. The verses of SL does not correlate to a “Stupid Love” at all.

I think it is a Tower of Babel reference. It is about miscommunication  and the splintering of humanity into different peoples and nations.

"Babylon" is a real city associated with the tower but also a pun for "Babble on."

"Gossip/Babble on/Battle for your life/Babylon"

We were all divided and made to speak different languages to restrict the potential of humanity. And so we are left in factions fighting with each other instead of reaching our true potential.

"The Tower of Babel (Hebrew: מִגְדַּל בָּבֶל‎, Migdal Bavel) narrative in Genesis 11:1–9 is an origin myth meant to explain why the world's peoples speak different languages.[1][2][3][4]

According to the story, a united human race in the generations following the Great Flood, speaking a single language and migrating westward, comes to the land of Shinar (שִׁנְעָר). There they agree to build a city and a tower tall enough to reach heaven. God, observing their city and tower, confounds their speech so that they can no longer understand each other, and scatters them around the world.

Some modern scholars have associated the Tower of Babel with known structures, notably the Etemenanki, a ziggurat dedicated tothe Mesopotamian god Marduk in Babylon. A Sumerian story with some similar elements is told in Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta.[5]"

Maybe I use my creativity differently and the 30 second snippet got me confused, that doesn’t mean I’m not creative, I mean I made 2 whole albums pretty much all my myself :billie:
