Cat Stevens – Father And Son Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
Such a beautiful song, and very thought provoking when you are a father! Anyway, the meaning of the song can be found on Cat Stevens' (nee Yusuf Islam) own web site - http://www.yusufislam.org.uk/fatherandson.shtml
So it is about a son wanting to leave home and join the Russian Revolution. I'm glad I know that now! |

Natalie Merchant – Beloved Wife Lyrics

|
When my mother was dying of cancer, I couldn't listen to this song. It made me think of what my dad was going through - living through his memories of her. Even now I find it hard to listen to it. |

Presumably the song is about mind reading, as per the guy in the David Byrne movie True Stories who read minds - this is the song he sings, and DB wrote it for the movie. |

Talking Heads – Road To Nowhere Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
I heard an interview with the band when Little Creatures was being released. David Byrne was surprised the Road to Nowhere was proving so popular, and would thus become a single, as it was downbeat and about the road to oblivion. |
