| Bob Dylan – Positively 4th Street Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
The best thing about Dylan is how all of his songs speak to you in there own way so i thought i'd share this with you. I got promoted at work and became my mates boss, he continually tried to use our friendship to his own advantage and when i wouldn't have it he stabbed me right in the back big time,all of the lyrics fit perfectly to the situation i was faced with and this song helped me get through a real rough time. I just thought maybe Dylan had a similar experience and thats what this song was about,maybe childhood friends trying to use his fame for thier gain? Anyway its great! |

| Bob Dylan – Blowin' in the Wind Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| To me this song is about the development of nuclear weapons,look at the lyrics verse by verse and at the end of each the answer is blowin in the wind i.e. when a nuclear bomb goes off and the radiation is carried by the wind. | |
| R.E.M. – Nightswimming Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
i may be way off here but i think this song is about michaels homosexuality,nightswimming being the term he uses for "cruising".Several people have mentioned skinny dipping but take this as a metaphor for unprotected sex add that to the discovery of aids in the 80s and the line "it's not like years ago,the fear of getting caught " makes alot more sense. People need to give Stipe more credit than just saying its about a nice warm night going skinny dipping,he's way cleverer than that. |
