No, 'Lounge (Closing Time)' is on the same album as this: The Lonesome Crowded West. I'll bet you got a torrent that had 'Lounge (Closing Time)' on it where 'Lounge' should have been amirite. |

I own the CD, and amazingly, it really does say 'etceteranough' and 'mine canaries.' I honestly have no clue what that is, especially as a made-up word for a chorus. To me, it sounds like the song is about getting stranded on a deserted paradise island and staying longer than needed, the crew dreaming their stay away and really not caring whether or not the boat is fixed or even OK. |

What's so exclusively American about getting drunk, tenserock? You think most Europeans and Britons spend their free time mining into the depths of rocket science and human understanding? Or is it that everyone not using chemical intoxication has already found technological alternatives? Oops, welcome to music and computers. |

I think it's about young companions running from oppression, willing to lose everything in order to live freely. This being Suede, I can't avoid the suspicion that it's about running from the oppression of a homophobic society. |

To those who hate this song: who killed your inner child? Lighten up. The song is written for a child; the lyrics are childish. Grow up and break out of your little cage of permanent, stiff-necked 'maturity.' |

I was merely pointing out that this song's message is not as concretely interpretable in the way it is intended to be by Mr. Smith. It has nothing to do with TSDWAY, which is not only one of the shorter songs I consider great (I listen to a lot of Pink Floyd), but I do like. I apologize oh-so-sincerely if my cynical view of the event portrayed in the lyrics offends you. It's just as easy as making an equally cynical interpretation with the subject beautiful person as the target, which is what most people do. You fill the role quite well yourself when someone offers a different viewpoint, apparently. I see what Smith was saying; I just don't think it's as solid as he hoped it to be, but then again, it is a song. In other news, studies find that your written opinions and claims are much more credible and taken more seriously when you don't make a junior high school-level grammatical error while insulting someone's intelligence. |

The lyrics look kind of okay, though really disjointed, but the song is really terrible. |

Did anyone ever thing that the girl was just angry at people always looking at her materialistically, staring because her appearance? Did Smith ever think of that? I guess he didn't. Silly. |

Of course it doesn't change that fact, Skammunist. No one said it's a bad song because of its topic. It's not like it's offensive. |

Wow, Disabled Operator, might want to do a little research before making a claim like that. Just a small suggestion. ;) |

Yeah, I'm sure no one said "There's a song playing on the radio" before Roxy Music or Suede. Probably a case of accidental "theft". |

Well said, Eatcarpet, exactly my thoughts. It actually reminds me of Pink Floyd's 'In the Flesh?' and 'In the Flesh' song in those same ways, that and they're "introducing the band". |

Just because the song uses a line from a poem doesn't mean it's based on it. It could simply be influenced by it, or neither of these. Morrissey used a lot of references and quotes without basing the song using the quotes on the source. |

Hey jimn, want to explain how being a gay man 'undoubtedly' means you'll die alone? Oh wait, you can't. Love some of the ways people interpret Morrissey songs. Everytime you hear about a bisexual person, everyone focuses on the gay part. |

Ztarlight's got it. If you need more convincing, look at the picture in the album booklet for that song; it's a little boy and a little girl holding hands on a beach. It shows who the people in question are in their hearts. |

keli_1989, you definitely need to get out more; the world is FULL of pigs (and crashing bores). If you don't know this, then what do you know?
Definitely one of the best build-up songs, even if the lyrics do lack a bit of detail. |

| Black Eyes – Deformative Lyrics

I think this song is about a priest molesting/raping a sixteen-year-old. The candle and chrism indicate that a priest did it. The sixteen-year-old was forced onto his knees on the ground or a floor with pebbles on it, and he'll never forget what that felt like. He saw the previously kind, blue eyes of the priest turn to fire. After the experience, he is sexually confused with "a desiring to feel the sun rising in between" his knees but has a fear of his skin because he feels bad about what happened. He's scarred by the experience (There's something on the ceiling
My feet aren't on the floor
All I feel anymore and all I can see anymore). |
