| Kings of Convenience – Homesick Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I agree about the meaning. It also seems to have a lot of Simon and Garfunkel references: the title, 2 soft voices blended, boy in the mirror, bridges... And the sound of the song. Breathtaking. |

|
It's missing some lyrics. Here's another version I found. A to b, a to b Oh to move your It is a shame, it is a pitty When you cant raise the energy to get from a to b A to b A to b (i ask a question you wouldn't comment) A to b (forget the question think nothing of it) A to b, oh to move your body I ask a question, you make a comment Impossible, to make a comment I ask a question, you make a comment Can you say that again, 'cos i didnt catch your comment And you say you're gonna reform, and you see you gotta move Well its no excuse it's no excuse, because theres no excuse to use Why do you say you're gonna reform, and you see you gotta move Well its no excuse it's no excuse, because theres no excuse for you to us A to b (i asked a question you wouldn't comment) A to b (forget the question think nothing of it)(forget all my questions) A to b (i asked a question you wouldn't comment)(forget all my questions) A to b, oh to move your body It is a shame, it's a real pitty When you have to be lazy, when you have to start early When you can't raise the energy to get from a to b |

| Sondre Lerche – Stupid Memory Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| The incessant, frustrating memory of all the stupid things you've said and done...I can relate. If you could just get your memory to shut up and quit bringing it up. I love this song! | |
| Ron Sexsmith – From Now On Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Seems to have something to do with the outcry over artists speaking out politically in past couple years. I think it transcends that to a bigger picture toward the end, but I get that idea from the beginning. Thanks for posting all the Retriever lyrics, geekusa. |

| Ron Sexsmith – Imaginary Friends Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
"As all the friends who've been real and true Wonder who you're talking to" Best line of the song, and summarizes the meaning. |
|
| Ron Sexsmith – Happiness Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| A song worthy of its title. | |

| Is dandelion wine bitter? | |
| Ron Sexsmith – Wishing Wells Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Beautifully simple play on words--"wishing wells" as the people wishing you well. I think it has to do with the futility he feels--"all your happy hopes for me aren't going to fix us, we're all too screwed up". | |
| The Bens – Just Pretend Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| The sound reminds me of an old Crosby Stills Nash. I love it. I think they're describing a way of coping with life--pretending. "Sticks and stones and broken homes ...taught us how to smile". Things suck, but you can always pretend and everything is ok. | |
| R.E.M. – Make It All Ok Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| No one else mixes irony and sincerity like Michael Stipe. "Well Jesus loves me fine." What a great way to say he's okay. | |
| Arcade Fire – Rebellion (Lies) Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Letting fears and people's overcautious advice keep you from living... | |
| The Walkmen – 138th Street Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Nice song. Seems to be his take on Dylan (the title, the sound, the lyrics) | |
