Great Big Sea – Yarmouth Town Lyrics 14 years ago
This one is pretty straight forward.

Sailor finds a girl he likes and asks her to marry him. She says no, but I'll sleep with you. Come back tomorrow and I'll put a string around my finger. Pull on the string and I'll come down and let you in.

Well he does the next day, and she is only wearing the string :).

Great Big Sea – The Jolly Butcher Lyrics 14 years ago
Sounds like the butcher hires a hooker, and then after the deed asks for the change from the money he paid her. 12 months later they meet again and she shows him the baby and says "Here's your change!"

:P funny stuff.

My best guess is it's about painting and "hanging" the paintings. Any other guesses?

Garth Brooks – When You Come Back To Me Again Lyrics 17 years ago
This song was writen specificaly for the movie "Frequency". Great movie fyi, but the song relating to the movie is about a son reuniting with his father who "died" when he was very young.

Outside the movie this song is about any two people who are close (even a person and god) coming together through the storm of life.

Peter Jones – Kilkelly Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is about a man who leaves home to find work. Each verse is a letter from his father to him except for the last one which is from his brother. He is gone from home and neer reurns as life wooshes by at home. His Father dies without seeing him for 40 years i think it was. VERY sad song, I can't listen to it without welling up.

Moral: Keep in touch with your parents, you never know when it will be too late...

Sons Of The Desert – What I Did Right Lyrics 17 years ago
This song is about finding out what makes you a good person, and then doing that thing for the rest of your life.

The First verse strikes a cord with me because my Grandpa is a korean vet and he is a very gruff person but when he says he's proud of me, i turn into a proud little kid again.

So all you people out there: Be good.

Eminem – Kim Lyrics 18 years ago
"Have you even listen to any of his other songs," - kyrie

yeah but we're talking about this one :)

emineminemineminem should stop before he gets too much worse. This is not that kind of thing mentaly stable talk or sing about. Sad thing is he's playing the audiance so maybe HE's not the one that's messed up.

Sister Hazel – Sword And Shield Lyrics 18 years ago
Wow i can't believe no one commented. This is a very powerfull song. I've been listening to it for at least 2 years now and it still never gets old.

I always think about my girlfriend when i hear this song. She is my angel and I would do anything for her. I would defend her with the very last breath i had. And that's what this song is about. THe singer is saying he will be whatever it takes. he'll defend her. even when everything is falling apart, he'll be there.

Great Big Sea – The Night Pat Murphy Died Lyrics 18 years ago
about sending off a good friend in the best way possible, by celebrating them, not mourning them. comical overtone of course but it's an awsome song because of it.

Great Big Sea – How Did We Get From Saying ‘i Love You’... Lyrics 18 years ago
from experiance this is very true. when you meet someone you were that close to, and now you're not even friends, there's nothing to say, you just can't find anything to talk about, it's too awkward.
