| The Tallest Man on Earth – The Gardener Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I find this song dark, but very humorous! It just goes to show what a man will go through for love. The runner is the threat between the narrator and the lover. "Their aint no cowboy in my hair" is the runner's way of making the narrator look foolish to his lover. So the narrator kills him and buries him in his garden. Throughout the rest of the lyrics explains the spy and the leak as detectives (or police or whatever) on his trail as he tries to hide evidence but he can't. So he kills them to stay the "tallest man" in his lover's eyes while meanwhile, his lover remains oblivious to his actions. So he eliminated the threats for the sake of love. It's great! |

I love the march feel and the crescendo into the last line of the song, "Feed your head." This is the epitome of 60's counterculture. |

| Elliott Smith – Say Yes Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Has anyone ever been in a relationship where they are so sure about the way they feel, yet, the other is unsure. Things start to go downhill, on again, off again. Sleeping next to someone for so long really gets to your head and waking up in the morning next to that person thinking everything will be ok but it still doesn't feel right because you don't know how the other person feels. It's a terrible situation. Yes, classic Elliott is the contrast of happy and unhappy which is what this song is. He wants her but he is uncertain it will be ok. When it all comes down to it, those people really love each other but they want different things. Sad, yet beautiful. |
