for you than..

Just wondered, is "chasing pavements" some sort of urban youth slang or colloquialism for something else, just it makes no sense to me, on many levels...why would you chase a pavement? Pavements are stationary, so why the need to chase them, they don't move...or am I just creating a new form of literal madness....literal madness, now theres an interesting band name

time for the tablets I think :laugh:

"Chasing Pavements" refers to an incident that occurred at 6AM one day after a fight with that person during which Adele was running down the street alone. She thought to herself "What is it you're chasing? You're chasing an empty pavement."
