| The Weakerthans – A New Name For Everything Lyrics

this is definetly one of the most well written songs ever. but it's john k. so i wouldn't expect to be anything less than amazed at his ability to draw the most seemingly obvious pictures that we all somehow still seem to miss. his songs have a way of being the simplist and most complex all at once. everytime he says something like "the distorted reflection is never the someone you're hoping to recognize." i find myself thinking "god i know that feeling." and the more i think on it the more i find myself connecting with it on aa deeper level than the obvious implications. |

| Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – The High Party Lyrics

the meaning i took from this song was an artists responsibility to make social/political commentary. ted basically saying the state of things aren't what i'd like them to be, and i will not censor myself because the president is fighting his war. i think that "there's a cup in front of you" is basically saying if you want to wear the badge of an artist be prepared to make your statement and accept the criticism you will undoubtedly recieve from those who don't agree with your opinion. ted has seriously changed my life. his lyrics, his music, and his conversations have been a constant inspiration to me. |
