Josh Joplin Group – Here I Am Lyrics 19 years ago
Yeah I feel like this song could really go either way-- it could be about seeing someone you used to love and no longer having those feelings for them, or about seeing someone you used to only view as a friend and now feeling more for them. Or something entirely different, but those are the two ways I've interpreted it over the years.

Marvelous 3 – Cigarette Lighter Love Song Lyrics 19 years ago
Yeah it's so weird to listen to this song in the context of the Marvelous 3's breakup when I've listened to it all these years in the context of a relationship. It still gives me chills, maybe even moreso now.

Bain Mattox – Tragic Keys Lyrics 19 years ago
Bain wrote this song when he heard about Elliott Smith's suicide.

submissions
Bain Mattox – Shotgun Pageant Lyrics 19 years ago
This song's mainly about one of Bain's cousins, I believe, who got pregnant out of wedlock. Thus shotgun pageant, like a shotgun wedding.

Bain Mattox – Heartburn Boulevard Lyrics 19 years ago
The way Bain's told it, he had just recently broken up with a girl he'd been with awhile, and this female acquaintance of his who knew that started flirting with him really heavily one night, and he just wasn't ready for it, and this song's how he felt about that.

submissions
Bain Mattox – Peripheral People Lyrics 19 years ago
Bain sees ghosts, and that's what he wrote this song about.

Jump, Little Children – Daylight Lyrics 19 years ago
At the last Jump show in Athens, Jay said he wrote this song about the girl from the movie Amelie.

Catatonia – Nothing Hurts Lyrics 20 years ago
This song is likely in reference to the quote "Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt" from Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut. The quote was what Billy Pilgrim wanted put on his tombstone.

submissions
Jason Mraz – Love Is Real Lyrics 20 years ago
Just to clarify, this song is a cover of Bright Eyes' "Kathy With A K's Song." To be honest, I like this version ten times better than the Bright Eyes version, though.

Josh Joplin Group – Camera One Lyrics 21 years ago
Yeah I thought the character was committing suicide as well.

Third Eye Blind – Blinded (When I See You) Lyrics 21 years ago
Well, the line is "Icarus is not a t-shirt or a swan song/He is born again..." and not "The rest is not a t-shirt or a swan song/Heat is born again," according to the 3EB website.
While I don't know if this is what the song is referring to, Icarus is from Greek mythology, the son of Daedalus, and the story goes that they made wings out of wax to escape from the Labyrinth, and Daedalus told Icarus not to fly too close to the sun but he did anyway, and the wings melted and he fell to his death. Any ideas how that fits in the song, or is the "Icarus" in the song referring to something else?

Elton John – I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues Lyrics 21 years ago
This is my favorite Elton John song. It's just so nice to listen to. I know that doesn't shed much insight onto the song itself, but what can I say? I like it.

submissions
The Pretenders – Human Lyrics 21 years ago
This is the song in the trailers for 'The Good Girl'. Great song and great movie.

Bowling for Soup – Girl All The Bad Guys Want Lyrics 22 years ago
Co-written by Butch Walker...yeah, I love it. Good song.

submissions
The Get Up Kids – Stay Gold, Ponyboy Lyrics 22 years ago
I like this song a lot, but I just wanted to say that the lyrics to both this and 'Don't Hate Me' are written on a pair of Express jeans. Seriously, go into Express and look for yourself. I was highly amused.

submissions
Marvelous 3 – Cold As Hell Lyrics 22 years ago
"I'm kind of hungry and I hate my life" is the line on the indie version of Hey!Album, but on ReadySexGo the line's "I'm kinda hungry and you ain't my type."

submissions
The Riddlin' Kids – I Feel Fine Lyrics 22 years ago
Great song, and these guys are way cool live. I saw them with Left Front Tire and Butch Walker and they were just so energetic and awesome, and the music was really good. Can't wait til their cd comes out.

submissions
Marvelous 3 – Freak Of The Week Lyrics 22 years ago
NO, that's not what I'm saying. Please don't read so much into everything. All I'm saying is that when you're at a Butch show and he sings "Tell me I sold you" followed by yelling out, "I did!", that pretty much sums it all up to me.

submissions
Marvelous 3 – I'm Losing You Lyrics 22 years ago
Butch Walker's whole solo album 'Left Of Self Centered' is reminiscent of this track, so if you like this one you might like his cd.

submissions
Marvelous 3 – Freak Of The Week Lyrics 22 years ago
Oh, Butch totally acknowledges both the fact that this song is about selling out and that he did sell out. He jokes about it all the time.
Also, BoyBandRejectM3, ya know they used to be a metal band, right? Hehe...

submissions
Marvelous 3 – Cigarette Lighter Love Song Lyrics 22 years ago
This song is so beautiful. The bridge gives me chills. And, of course, it's SO amazing live.

Marvelous 3 – #27 Lyrics 22 years ago
Yeah, sucks that they broke up last summer, doesn't it?
Oh well. Still my favorite band.

Butch Walker – If (Jeannie's Song) Lyrics 22 years ago
All I know is, it's about cancer.

Butch Walker – Alicia Amnesia Lyrics 22 years ago
Butch says on Metal-Sludge.com: "a ditty about the girl that we all fall for that acts like she doesnt remember you the next time you run into her. i watched too many john hughes movies growing up."

submissions
Butch Walker – Get Down Lyrics 22 years ago
Butch says on Metal-Sludge.com: "about coming to terms with your celebrity. you battle being normal everyday...usually with yourself. my friend chrystina lloree sings on it. she rules."

Butch Walker – Take Tomorrow (One Day At A Time) Lyrics 22 years ago
When I first heard this song I read that he'd written it in response to/after the 9-11 incidents, but I'm not sure. Did anybody else hear that?

submissions
Butch Walker – Suburbia Lyrics 22 years ago
At all the shows before he plays this song he says, "This is a song about growing up in Cartersville, Georgia." So...that's what it's about. Haha, I love it, it reminds me so much of where I live.
Also, the last verse gives me chills. At least live it does.

submissions
Butch Walker – Trouble Lyrics 22 years ago
This song is sorta autobiographical about an experience with teen pregnancy Butch had back in high school, I think.

submissions
Avril Lavigne – Complicated Lyrics 22 years ago
Okay, I like the song itself. It's catchy, fun to listen to, and...completely pop. Actually, my friends and I think it sounds a little bit country. I would like her soooo much better if she would just acknowledge that she's NOT punk. I mean, she says she's punk but she's definitely not punk. If she said "hey, I'm pop" then I would have much more respect for her. But as of now, I have very little.

submissions
Splender – Yeah, Whatever Lyrics 22 years ago
This is my favorite Splender song...is it really written about a dog? That's slightly disappointing. I always thought of it as perfect in describing the situation between an ex-boyfriend and I.

submissions
Spiritualized – Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space Lyrics 22 years ago
This song is so beautiful. It just gives me warm fuzzy feelings inside--I can't even describe it.

submissions
Sum 41 – Summer Lyrics 22 years ago
I heard this song playing in GAP this morning. What does that say about Sum 41?
Anyway, I like this song. I immediately had to look it up when I came home, because anything that inspires dancing in the GAP is pretty damn good.

submissions
John Mayer – Comfortable Lyrics 22 years ago
Just in response to those who say John Mayer and Dave Matthews sound identical--I absolutely loathe DMB, but I love John Mayer. You'd think if they sounded the same that I'd like both. But I don't, because I think they sound very different.
Also, good song.

submissions
The Old 97's – Question Lyrics 22 years ago
The only word I can think of to describe this song is 'lovely'. I like it lots.

submissions
Marvelous 3 – Little Head Lyrics 22 years ago
This is my favorite song for them to play live. They opened up all of their RSG concerts with it. It's amazing live.

submissions
Butch Walker – My Way Lyrics 22 years ago
Wow, this song is so exciting. I love Butch Walker, and I can't wait until the cd, 'Left Of Self Centered' comes out. Anyway, this song is reminiscent of 'Sugarbuzz' and 'Freak of the Week' in that they're all those "shove it up your ass" anthems. I love it!

submissions
Robbie Williams – Singing For The Lonely Lyrics 22 years ago
This is my favorite song on 'Sing While You're Winning'. My favorite line is "The hooligan half of me that steals form Woolworth's, while the other lives for love." I can't pinpoint exactly why I like the song so much...it's just nice to listen to.

submissions
Foo Fighters – Next Year Lyrics 22 years ago
This song used to be the theme song to the show 'Ed' on NBC. I really loved it as the theme, until this season when they switched to whatever shitty song they use now. Copyright issues, apparently, but still...I love this song.

submissions
Foo Fighters – Walking After You Lyrics 22 years ago
I definitely like the version on 'The X-Files' soundtrack better. Either way, it's such a beautiful song. It's just amazing I think, and it shows sort of the other side of the Foo Fighters, in a way.

submissions
Train – Something More Lyrics 22 years ago
I love this song...it very accurately describes a relationship I'm in right now. Which kind of sucks, but that's another story. I like Train a lot, and this is one of my favorites of their songs.

The Juliana Theory – If I Told You This Was Killing Me, Would You Stop? Lyrics 22 years ago
I agree wholeheartedly with Dade322, seeing as I'm in a similar situation currently myself.

Dispatch – The General Lyrics 22 years ago
Well...it's a very pretty song...

Crash Test Dummies – Afternoons and Coffeespoons Lyrics 22 years ago
In case anybody didn't know, this song is based on the poem 'The Love Song Of J. Alfred Prufrock', by T.S. Eliot, which is a great poem and I suggest you all go read.

submissions
Angie Aparo – Hush Lyrics 22 years ago
I absolutely adore this song. This is the song that we listen to on quiet nights when we drive really fast on really long, straight roads with all the windows rolled down. You should try it sometime.

Sugarcult – Hate Every Beautiful Day Lyrics 22 years ago
i love this song. it's a good song for the days when you're just a little bit pissed off at everything.

Jump, Little Children – Cathedrals Lyrics 22 years ago
i'm not sure of the true meaning of this song, but i know it's completely beautiful, and i love the song and the band. it seems like such a sad little song, but i think it has some hope there as well.

submissions
Elliott Smith – Miss Misery Lyrics 22 years ago
such a pretty song. it's from 'Good Will Hunting', which i absolutely love as well. when i listen to this song, it just reminds me of the hope and maybe also the lack of hope in a relationship.

Josh Joplin Group – Here I Am Lyrics 22 years ago
I love this song. JJG is such a great band...they're great live too, if any of you ever get a chance to see them.
