I'll admit that I didn't quite understand the song until I heard Fran explain. He said it's about that someone that everybody knows...that someone who just sits on their arse all day playing video games. You know they have so much potential, but they are throwing their life away. |

Who's got the 'Live in Glasgow' DVD? It's great. Hurrah. Get it, and Fran will enlighten you by explaining just what he meant with this song. And Dougie will just hump his guitar. |

BTW, the fourth line (the one with the ?) is totally wrong. I'm listening to it and it actually sounds like he's saying 'weeping...till we reach the end.' Maybe someone with a better ear than me can pick it up and post it for me. I can't find the correct lyric anywhere. Thanks. |

I thought this song was a cover when I first heard it. It's got a very classic quality to it. I think it's about not paying attention to the people who slag you off in life, those who say you won't amount to anything...the 'unbelievers.' |

It's so difficult for me to pick a favorite Travis song because they are all awesome, but I think this is probably their greatest slower song...I dunno, I just adore this song, it's bittersweet. |

I just turned 20 so I can relate to this song and being 'face with another blank page.' I love this song because it just speaks the truth about all of the different stages of growing up. |

| Marcy Playground – Sex And Candy Lyrics
| 22 years ago
|
|
Oh just get a life. If you can see all of that sick stuff in the song, then there is obviously something wrong with you. You know nothing...the lead singer attended a school called Marcy Open School, and he never got to play on the playground as a kid because he always got teased. He named his band Marcy Playground after the school. The singer has admitted that the lyrics in this song are all euphemisms for sex. But it is NOT about child molestation. |

| Craig David – Seven Days Lyrics

|
My friend had been making an ass of herself by making fun of this song. She thought that the part in the song that goes 'So was she keen?' was actually 'So is Shaquille' because he says the girl is 24 and that's Shaquille O'Neal's number. It makes sense in a way, i guess. |

I think Craig David is a prat. I can't stand anyone who would say their own name in a song. Nevertheless, I can't help but like this song and I am trying not to be ashamed of it. |

| Travis – Indefinitely Lyrics
| 22 years ago

The best lyric of any Travis song is 'Time exists just on your wrists, so don't panic. Moments last, and lifetimes are lost in a day.'
It's all about getting out of the hectic rat-race and just living for yourself, because it could all be over tomorrow. |

I've never heard the drug thing, but I doubt it. Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin is a pretty straight-laced guy and doesn't even like to drink alcohol. So I doubt he'd write a song about drugs. Could be wrong, but those are just my thoughts. |

| Boyzone – No Matter What Lyrics

|
|
I love Boyzone. It's a shame they've broken up, but at least they had the sense to realize the boyband mania would be over soon. Well, Ronan did...can't say the same for the others. Anyway, this is the greatest song by the greatest boyband of all time. Forget NSYNC and BSB, they lack the class, talent and charisma of Boyzone. It's a shame America never had the taste to embrace these guys. |

Hmm...I think Westlife are alright for a boyband. One of the better ones. But to cover this song was really really wrong. |

This song was written by Ronan Keating and Paul Brady and is one of Ronan's favorite songs to perform in concert. It was recently recorded by US country duo Brooks and Dunn and was a hit on the country chart.
I personally prefer Ronan's own version. |

| The Cranberries – Ode To My Family Lyrics

This song has such a beautiful melody. For me, I can just put it on repeat and hear it over and over and never get tired. I think it's actually meant to be a true story of how the singer's parents did not approve of her leaving school to join a band. |

| Robbie Williams – Better Man Lyrics

Robbie is the biggest star in the UK but he is pretty notorious for his feelings of self loathing and self doubt. I remember him saying the story behind this song is that he was on a beach, and he asked the spirit of John Lennon to help him write a song. The result was this song, which he wrote in half an hour. |

| Marcy Playground – Sex And Candy Lyrics

This is my favorite song ever. I have other songs that'll be my 'Flavor of the Month,' but this is always the #1 for me. And I know it's just a bit of nonsense, but the very first time i heard it, I thought it was awesome. It had to be explaned ad nauseum when it came out...basically John Wozniak the lead singer had just finished having sex with his girlfriend, and they were having a post cotial cigarette when the girlfriend's roommate walked in and said 'Ooh, smells like sex and candy in here.' And so he made a song based on those words. A weird song with a weird story. |

I heard this song playing in the background in a friends car, and i just liked the melody. Then when I heard the lyrics, it just touched me deeply. it's one of those songs that's universal; no matter who it was written about, you can apply it to someone in your life that you've lost. |

I think this was a true story of a cab ride Kelly Jones took in San Francisco once. The cab driver was telling him how he was sick of everybody selling out and only being in life to make money. |

I think that maybe this song is about feeling fed up in a relationship. It seems to me like the person he's singing about was a cold hearted bitch with no feelings and really treated him like crap. |

| Robbie Williams – Supreme Lyrics

I think this song is about everyone's quest for love, and when you don't have love, it just slaps you in the face all the time. Like when you turn on the radio and all you hear are love songs. Robbie Williams is a great songwriter...I think his lyrics have just the right mix of sarcasm and heartfelt sentiment. Never too too cheezy or sappy. |

I think this is about turning to a dead lover or friend for help and guidance, someone looking down from up above and watching over you. It may sound morbid, but i want this one played at my funeral, to let my loved ones know that I'll always be with them long after I'm gone from this Earth. |

It's a beautiful love song, with just enough rocky bits, and for me the most poignant line is 'For you I'd bleed myself dry.' Something about that line strikes a chord with me everytime I hear it. |

| Travis – Flowers In The Window Lyrics

This song means a lot to me because its one of the many Travis songs that I can relate to my life. I think it's about thinking that no one could ever possible love you, and just being resigned to the fact that your existence will be lonely. But then you find someone that spins your whole world upside-down onto its ass, and then the world is lovely and amazing and you just want to share it all with that person. |

| Travis – Blue Flashing Light Lyrics

|
I think this song is about abuse, and how people tend not to want to get involved with abuse even when they know it's happening. I get this impression from the line 'Now everyone sees and yet nobody says
Are we all just afraid of the heat?'
