| Jane Siberry – Anytime Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
This song is very simple, yet it touched me profoundly. It's about how true love and friendship can transcend anything; time, space, even death. The people who love you will always be there for you, even if they can't physically be with you.
It's a beautiful song, a perfect example of how you don't need overblown vocals or a string section to be inspirational. It can be a bit hard to find (available for download at sheeba.ca, but no other places that I know of). It's definetly worth a listen. |

A simple yet beautiful song about travelling and exploring, but always coming back home. It's about how much you'd miss your friends if you had to be separated. Shawn Colvin's version makes me tear up. |

I just listened to this song, on the 5th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks... it always makes me think of 9/11. Especially the line "May it be when darkness falls, your heart will be true." It's a song about hope in hard times. |

Uh....a fine "don't do drugs, kids" song. This is what happens when you go into the studio stoned. |

| The Chicks – Lubbock or Leave it Lyrics

I think it's about the kind of conservative christian right in any American small town- Lubbock specifically, but it could be about any small, closed-minded town. It's kind of about the hypocrisy of the christian right and how they want to think everyone who isn't exactly like them or doesn't believe in the same things they do is going to hell. |

| The Chicks – Easy Silence Lyrics
| 18 years ago

I might be totally off base on this, but my personal interpretation is that it's about some kind of "Forbidden" love. I kind of think of this song as maybe about a gay couple living in a conservative area- "They form commissions trying to find
The next one they can crucify"- who are kind of scared of everything that's going on around them but love each other more than anything and create an "Easy Silence" for each other. Again, I'm taking a lot of liberties here, and the girls probably didn't intend the song that way- It's just what comes to mind when I hear this song. |
