The Goo Goo Dolls – Soldier Lyrics 13 years ago
Pretty straight forward, seeing a friend for the first time whose life has turned into an uphill battle, telling him/her to keep fighting.

Very chilling chorus one of their best songs in a long time.

The Gaslight Anthem – Angry Johnny and the Radio Lyrics 14 years ago
1984 is when Springsteen released "bobby jean"

"In some bus or train traveling along
In some motel room there'll be a radio playing
And you'll hear me sing this song
Well if you do you'll know I'm thinking of you and all the miles in between
And I'm just calling one last time not to change your mind
But just to say I miss you baby, good luck goodbye, Bobby Jean"

84 does it better, bobby does it better, dont'drive nowhere without the radio on.

Song about his first wife leaving, and reflecting on some of the more intimate moments (springsteen, bob dylan, and what became of the broken hearted) hoping she'll remeber

Gaslight use Springsteen references alot... along with pretty well any other band,


At least thats my take on it, not sure who'll agree.

The Gaslight Anthem – Meet Me by the River's Edge Lyrics 14 years ago
Small Jersey factory town, you coudl see the lights from the city in the sky.

Lyrically they seem almost identical to something springsteen would sing, same style of telling stories.

Mobile – New York Minute Lyrics 16 years ago
the song has zero to do with New York, A New York minute is another connotation for a shot time.(a short time can't last forever) basically he gets dumped and he thinks its just a temporary thing, he thinks its a New York Minute breakup. As the song goes on he seems more accepting of it, "you got the best but you gotta beleive" becomes "got the best but i gotta beleive".

It's the story of Jesus, pretty straight forward.

Billy Joel – Captain Jack Lyrics 17 years ago
Really dark song, about a guy whose finished school comes from a very well off family, "So you stand on the corner in your new English clothes
And you look so polished from your hair down to your toes
But still your fingers gonna pick your nose, after all" also he has a pool, which back then i think was quite abit more of a status symbol then it is now adays.

His father drowned in the pool, and he kinda just burned out from their on. So its all about escaping, I can agree with both Jack danials, and Heroin if you look up Captain jack, it will come up will come up with a Slang name for Heroin, as Well as Jack danials whiskey.
In short you have a 21 year old heroin addict who could have it all but has killed his world because of his addiction.

The Ataris – Summer '79 Lyrics 17 years ago
I think he's telling the story of how his parents met... and how he resulted. But singing it from his fathers prospective.

The Goo Goo Dolls – Feel The Silence Lyrics 17 years ago
He made a promise to her, but hasn't been able to fufill it until now. Despite the fact that shes been hurt, he wants to be mroe to her then he is now, but not to her. I think that they have a feeling for one anotehr that means more to them then they can explain.

Lostprophets – Can't Catch Tomorrow (Good Shoes Won't Save You This Time) Lyrics 17 years ago
I think this song is more him talking to a freind of his who he was with at one point, but now shes with a guy who keeps going to far, and he's the person she goes too to talk about it. But she's afraid to leave her boyfreind "maybe someday you will end these fears and go"

Despite the fact that it hadn't worked out with them, towards the end of the song he still feels bad for her.

For the most part he's noticing how much she's being changed by the guy, and how she is angry at him over every little thing.

"yeah the hair is hot but this has gotta stop
good shoes won't save you this time
I think you're gonna find with everything combined
that the time's running out on this lie"

I think her boyfreind after abusing her gives her money for a hair cut and new shoes. and the singer is telling her with everything he does combined, your going to realize its over and you don't really love him.

Just my take,

Lostprophets – 4 AM Forever Lyrics 18 years ago
Another thought, it could be that he and his best freind got in a fight at 4 AM and now he regrets it, but his freind isn't willing to talk to him.

Lostprophets – Always All Ways (Apologies, Glances And Messed Up Chances) Lyrics 18 years ago
seems pretty self explanitory, the guy is still in love with the girl, and is sorry for what happened before. And that he will always love her.

Lostprophets – 4 AM Forever Lyrics 18 years ago
This songs a rather depressing song, the singer just lost his best freind, and he can't fall asleep, its 4 am, and he's still in the buzz of 'what happened?' and he's goign through the denial "why don't you hear me when I'm calling out to you".

A good song, with a sad feel too it

The Goo Goo Dolls – Let Love In Lyrics 18 years ago
I think its about his relationship witha girl who'd been hurt before, and was reluctant to let love into her life. Shes viewed by others shallowly, and no one sees beyond her face, and into who she actually is, and he's saying that he'll wait for her to make up her mind about whether or not to let him in.

The Goo Goo Dolls – Become Lyrics 18 years ago
Alrite i don't have all that much to back this one up, but here it goes

I think its about a guy, and the girl were once in love, and after the break up, he could still see through her, and to him, she was almost perfect, and somthing happened, which everyone else thinks is a black mark, but to him, shes gained a new beauty.

Its about a disagreement in relationships, and robbies saying one thing, but shes not hearing it, as for "drowning and never felt so free", he's going through hell, and isn't sure if he'll make it, but at the same time hes kidna glad to be free from the onstraints of the relationship.
