| Galaxie 500 – Sorry Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Damon on this song - Dean's attitude was horrendous at that point-- "I can't be bothered," was his catch phrase; he applied it to everything from lunch to overdubs. I even had to finish one of his lyrics for him; he'd run out of them and seemed to have stopped trying. All he had left was this line, "I'm sorry about your goldfish," and here we had this lovely tune already down on tape ["Sorry"], going to waste. I thought, well I know what I'm sorry about, so I wrote it on that theme and gave it to him. |

| Joanna Newsom – Baby Birch Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Full correct lyrics - This is the song for Baby Birch. I will never know you. And at the back of what we've done, there is that knowledge of you. I wish we could take every path. I could spend a hundred years adoring you. Yes, I wish we could take every path, because I hated to close the door on you. Do you remember staring up at the stars, so far away in their bulletproof cars? We heard the rushing, slow intake of the dark, dark water, and the engine breaks, and I said, How about them engine breaks? And, if I should die before I wake, will you keep an eye on Baby Birch? Because I'd hate to see her make the same mistakes. When it was dark, I called and you came. When it was dark, I saw shapes. When I see stars, I feel, in your hand, and I see stars, and I reel, again. Well mercy me. I'll be goddamned. It's been a long, long time since I last saw you. And I have never known the plan. It's been a long, long time. How are you? Your eyes are green. Your hair is gold. Your hair is black. Your eyes are blue. I closed the ranks, and I doubled back-- but, you know, I hated to close the door on you. We take a walk along the dirty lake. Hear the goose, cussing at me over her eggs. You poor little cousin. I don't want your dregs (a little baby fussing all over my legs). There is a blacksmith, and there is a shepherd, and there is a butcher boy, and there is a barber, who's cutting and cutting away at my only joy. I saw a rabbit, as slick as a knife, and as pale as a candlestick, and I had thought it'd be harder to do, but I caught her, and skinned her quick: held her there, kicking and mewling, upended, unspooling, unsung and blue; told her "wherever you go, little runaway bunny, I will find you." And then she ran, as they're liable to do. |

| The Field Mice – End of the Affair Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| this song is so lovely | |
| The Magnetic Fields – The Book of Love Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| So the Peter Gabriel version is total shit. Rather than the tounge in cheek brilliance of the MF original it\'s full of sappy straightforward \"i\'ll love you until the day i die\" sentiment. Completely nauseating. | |
| Pavement – Circa 1762 Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| this song totally rules. | |
| Cursive – Dorothy at Forty Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"And I know we swore we'd make more of ourselves But the product’s burning.. ahhhhhhh!" is actually: "And I know we swore we'd make more of ourselves, but this plot is literally our lot in life." i got the 7" in the mail today |

| Bright Eyes – Arc of Time (Time Code) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| this song isn't good face it. digital ash is a very mediocore album, incredibly derivative of radiohead's kid a. the only partically worthwile songs are take it easy and easy/lucky/free. | |
| Thursday – Ný Batterí Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| While i do enjoy Thursday, comparing them to Sigur Ros is like comparing watching a movie on a handheld b&w tv with a 2" screen and then in an imax theater. Seriously. Thursday would even agree. While this cover isn't terrible, it's far from good. If it acts as a catalyst to get Thursday fans to check out Sigur Ros, i'm all for it then. | |
| Dispatch – The General Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| dispatch effing sucks. they're what you get when you give a bunch of untalented reggae loving white guys acoustic guitars. a waste. nick drake, elliott smith, and m.ward should be listened to instead. | |

| An Albatross – I Am The Lazer Viking Lyrics | 18 years ago |

| Juno – Covered With Hair Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
this song has got some seriously amazing lyrics. especially the before mentioned ending lines and "some called it a sad, desparate way to die. but no one around here was saying anything that gave her a reason to try." so true and powerful. juno is so underrated its frusturating. |
