The Clash – Train in Vain Lyrics 15 years ago
yeah, this song is pretty obvious especially to those who've devoted themselves to their partner and gave their heart and dreams to them, and, in turn, had it thrown back in their face.
"You said you love me and that's a fact
Then you left me, said you felt trapped"

And then he wonders "Did you lie when you spoke to me?"
-he wants to know if all the "i love you's" from her were lies...

great song! It definitely captures the emotions one feels when he is heartbroken and left, possible for someone else. Believe me...

Modest Mouse – Ocean Breathes Salty Lyrics 15 years ago
My personal interpretation is that this song is about an ex lover and a very dysfunctional relationship. Obviously about something heartbreaking that ruined the relationship and how she is dead literally, or "dead" to him metaphorically.
When he says:
"Collected my belongings and I left the jail
Well, thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell
I had to think a while"

The "jail" he is referring to is the dysfunctional relationship. And when he says:

"And maybe we’ll get lucky and we’ll both live again
Well, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
Don’t think so
Well, that is that and this is this
You tell me what you want and I’ll tell you what you get
You get away from me"

I took it to meaning that he maybe they'll get back together and "live again" but he's heartbroken and bitter towards her so he wants her to "get away"

"Will you tell me what you saw and I’ll tell you what you missed"

He's trying to say that she missed out on who or what she though isaac really was or where the relationship was headed.
And that's why at the end of the song he confesses:

"The more we move ahead the more we’re stuck in rewind
Well, I don’t mind, I don’t mind, how the hell could I mind?"

He's saying that he's trying to get over her and "move ahead" but he keeps remembering everything about her and the time, and because he's still in love with her, he "doesn't mind" being "stuck in rewind"

i agree with icy40oz. It's definitely about a divorce or terrible break up.

Madonna – Ray of Light Lyrics 17 years ago
i agree with alex_0203 . "i watched madonna say herself that this song is about her feeling like having the whole world on her shoulders and her coming to terms with her responsibility as an individual. that's exactly what she said." That's exactly how she put it in an interview, when asked about the song meaning.

Granted, that's what the entire song as a whole means, i would also like to know (as someone posted above) what all of the double entendre's mean, individually.

Madonna – Like a Prayer Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is definitely about something sexual. I mean HELLO, this is a madonna song. Maybe it is about "heavenly sex" or what someone had stated before, or a blow job. but it definitely has little to do with actual religion. The song is titled "LIKE a prayer"...like is the key word

Boston – More Than A Feeling Lyrics 17 years ago
Many people assume this song is written about a girl he once loved. It is not. it's about a song he used to listen to and loves. And how when he listens to this song, "he loses himself" and its "more than a feeling, when i hear that old song they used to play"

Madonna – Drowned World/Substitute For Love Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song. It's one of my favorites. The video explains everything. The title "Drowned World" comes from a book that she uses to symbolize her new view on life. She no longer lives for "fame" and all of the baggage that comes with it. Her daughter provides a sense of reality and maturity into her life causing her to make the transition from 80's and early 90's party/sex goddess, to a more mature and religious person. Her album Ray of Light, that this song is from, stands as a famous mark in time for her transformation.
