Beirut – Elephant Gun Lyrics 13 years ago
Reminds me of the ivory hunts in the Congo. Feeling guilty for what you are doing but having no choice but to partake. Has almost a 'Heart of Darkness' feeling to it.

Blue Rodeo – Rain Down On Me Lyrics 14 years ago
Blue Rodeo supposedly influenced by James Joyce- particularly The Dead and Dubliners. Rain Down on Me seems to kind of speak for Eveline.

Anathallo – Genessaret (going out over 30000 fathoms of water) Lyrics 15 years ago
Everyone needs to stop saying god influences every artist's music, especially Anathallo.
You are ruining the whole idea for a lot of us.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Into My Arms Lyrics 16 years ago
Pretty sure this song is about rape.
Ever seen the music video?

Sarah Slean – Awake Soon Lyrics 16 years ago
"So beauty came with agony."
This line kind of confuses me. Perhaps another reference to anorexia, and reflecting on the toll it had on her relationship?

SoKo – I'll Kill Her Lyrics 16 years ago
it's almost very cynical and almost immature the way she sings what she has wrote,
it is gorgeous, and full of emotion.
but the way she puts in the "uh"s and stutters the "i"s it gives me the impression that she is being sarcastic.
she holds resentment and sourness to someone who broke her heart.

Bright Eyes – Lua Lyrics 18 years ago
"And I know you have a heavy heart
I can feel it when we kiss
And many men stronger than me
Have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
But me, I'm not a gamble
You can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening
By the morning won't exist"

i had always thought this had something to do with a one night stand sort of deal. referring back to "lover i don't have to love."
