Exploring the complexities of love and identity, this lyrical piece by Unknown Mortal Orchestra delves into the realm of unconventional relationships. The term "Multi-Love" suggests a polyamorous relationship which is further emphasized by the line "We were one, then become three". This song portrays an intense emotional struggle, with references to a heart being trashed like a hotel room and feelings of insanity. The repeated refrain "She don't want to be a man or a woman, She wants to be your love" challenges traditional gender roles and emphasizes the fluidity of identity in modern relationships. The songwriter also explores themes of religion and death, perhaps suggesting that societal norms and expectations are creating obstacles in their pursuit of multi-love. Overall, this song offers an introspective look at non-traditional love dynamics in contemporary society.
