I did it, I figured it out. If we're keeping with the theme of all of these Flavor Foley songs on the first album being 'kinds' of love, then Queen of Venus is about a validating love. This song is all about someone who barely believes in their own existence, to the point of considering it a sin. Thus, it can be "fucked away" AKA being given validation through sexual satisfaction.
What if our wires touched? And we were both girls… just a thought.
I love the irony behind the line “fuck away my sin” because usually that stuff is perceived as sinful while here it is described as an escape or a redemption which is very beautiful in my opinion
the poster behind me with the lesbian flag and the text "I LOVE ROBOTS CLANK CLANK CLANK CLANK CLANK CLANK CLANK AUGHHHH" loves this song
as someone who is very normal about robots, this is a song absolutely made by people who Get It. yall Understand. nothing but utmost respect once again.
the vocaloid fandom is returning back to it's roots and getting frisky with machines
the biggest reason i love this so much is that it makes the topic of sex feel so comfortable for me, which is a feat considering i'm sex-repulsed asexual lmao. honestly feels like i better understand why anyone would do it now, how it can be beautiful. i still don't think i'd ever do it, but this just feels so nice and comforting. it's such a nice break from the whole idea of premarital sex being a sin, the idea of sex in general being sacred is so much better imo. thanks:)
In less than a year, Flavor Foley has had a song surpass ten million views, is getting into Project Sekai, and is soon releasing an album. This is so cool, as someone who has been here from the beginning. 💛💜💚

DUDE I LOVE THE THEMES OF LOVE IN THE SONGS YOUVE PUT OUT SO FAR AAA butcher vanity: unhealthy obsession with someone, to the point you'd eat them rawdog: only in love for the ahem "birds and the bees" weathergirl: being too late to confess your love for someone wěiward romance: fast paced, matching the excitement of a honeymoon water the roses: coping with divorce after loving someone all your life queen of venus: treating your lover like a god/goddess, perfect in your eyes, almost to a point of absolute obsession/devotion I personally really love how open to interpretation these songs are, how people choose to see them, to listen to them, to connect with them, etc. Great job, Flavor Foley!
THE MONTH OF FLAVOR FOLEY BRO...NEW SONG, ALBUM, PJSK SONG...I'M GONNA GO INTO CARDIAC ARREST TBH
This song, perhaps, about the similarity of Adachi Rei and Galatea. In Greek Mythology, Pygmalion is a sculptor who challenge himself to create a statue of a beautiful woman, and eventually fell in love with his own creation. At the prayer day, he made an offerings to Aphrodite, wanted to confess about his feeling to his own creation but refrained by shame, so he only wished for finding a woman with equal beauty as the statue he created. Aphrodite listened to his wish, and as he came back to his home, he found the statue has now turn into a human woman, later commonly called as Galatea. In my opinion, this song is about the persective of Galatea=Rei. Queen of Venus might refer to Aphrodite, as Goddess Venus from Roman mythology are equivalent to Aphrodite from Greek. “I find the heat behind your mortal eyes” might refer to how Galatea describe the living consciousness inside the head of her creator, the soul and love of Pygmalion. “but when you're by my side I find my circuitry is real inside” is how she express the love given by him and she embrace it. “Oh, Queen of Venus, hear my plea. My longing overtaketh me for blood and body, purity the heart of your divinity.” could mean that Galatea also wished to be a human, a mutual feeling with Pygmalion. “Oh, Queen of Venus, let me in” “to fill this empty girl” “this artificial layer of skin” “I live my life a mannequin” “the flesh and blood I long to be” “You make me a reality” “the vessel that you laid me in” These might refer to the point of view of the soul that later reside within Galatea as human. As we know, Adachi Rei is a robot built by Missile39 and the community, wishing for her to become an artificial diva and singing a song like she has a soul. This is comparable to the legend of Pygmalion.
Can we have a moment to appreciate the editing and especially the typography? The text goes crazy
me and my robot wife me: why r ur hands so cold her: bb that me metal
jaimie’s usual paragraph replaced by a single sentence 😭😭😭
Thank you once again for your amazing music. As a robot enjoyer, I kneel for this.
1st song : eating people 2nd song : “eating people” 3rd song: stuck in the friend zone 4th song: fast paced honeymoon 5th song: divorce 6th song: treating your lover as a god/goddess
Oh FUCK yeah. As someone who both has an obsession with robots (especially when used as a metaphor for human disconnectivity), AND listens to at least one of your guys’ songs once a day, this is the shit I’ve been WAITING FOR!!!!!!!!
It's not just yuri, I think the song is also about Adachi Rei's yearning to be human. Rei is a mannequin - robot, and begging the queen of Venus, maybe in a deity sense but could also just be a regular human, to make Rei feel more in flesh, possibly by showing love?
