| Ms. John Soda – Sometimes STop, Sometimes Go Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
is it? I don't know, kindda hard to find this lyric, and when I found it, I cross-checked with the song and sounds pretty much right. But maybe it is anyway, since I'm not very good at english :) I really like this song, great lyric, and great vocals..always makes me spaceout..in a good way. |

| Seabear – You're Not Strange Enough (Hey Let's Make Some Mistakes) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
A stranger lover!! a person who loves to fall for strangers, due to the mystery that a stranger holds. Stranger is like puzzle unsolved, when the image finally revealed, there's nothing more to be done with it. it's now lack of mystery.. Because I can see You're up to no good Yeah I can see You're down to just stacks You're not strange enough He particulary feels unique / strange and wants to have someone with equal uniqueness..but she's not what he's looking for. |

| Múm – They Made Frogs Smoke 'til They Exploded Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i love the video verrry muuch.. and i think it's about global warming, about the devastation of this earth by human. in the video, the children cry blood, forest got burnt, someone break a cat neck -- symbol of animal killing and hunting? and then there are children choir, children symbolize the youth generation, and singing represent healing. these youth then begin to fix the world-- from their mouth poring down leaves, from their palm comes out butterflies. nice video.. |

| The One AM Radio – The Echoing Airports Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
me again.teehee... i think its about someone who's been missing someone badly, the one who has abandoned / left him before. Giving a false hope "someday we'll meet again" hence nobody knows "when". And this man always waiting, keeping this false hope as he goes waiting on the airport then and now, waiting for theone to return home. |

i agree...it should be "were born in leather jacket" Jens Pronounce this clearly. anyway..i really can't understand the meaning of this song. "You're looking." who is 'you'? i know 'me' refers to jens himself, and emily is the punk girl? right? |

| Shout Out Louds – Impossible Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i refer "sleep" as an action of denial. Sleeping is giving in, sleeping is a form of escaping from reality. Lets not fall back to sleep..seems like they often deny their live and relationship by dreaming the good things. but when they got up, well, they're in the same place not moving anywhere, thus don't have a future. And I've been standing on the same spot now since it's been over. |

| Kraftwerk – Radioactivity Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
in the intro.. they say : HARRISBURG... SELLAFIELD... HIROSHIMA... TSCHERNOBYL... the original version advocated radioactivity, but then some say they changed their mind in the late 80's and put a "stop" before radioactivity. Maybe this was due to the disaster caused by it. CHERNOBYL / TSCHERNOBYL is a nuclear plant that explode in the 1986 at Ukraine. It's the worst they say, it's level 7 (i don't know how worst is that anyway) SELLAFIELD is a nuclear site in England. and the place of the first commercial nuclear power station (now being decommissioned) HIROSHIMA yeah..we all know..this was how the world war II ended..they say, even now, the nuclear radioactivity still affect birth.. HARRISBURG from wikipedia "Electronic Music pioneers Kraftwerk, when rerecording their 1975 song "Radioactivity" ("Radioaktivität") for the 1991 album "The Mix", changed its lyrics to include Harrisburg as one of four nuclear disasters." |

| Air – Run Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| hills on my chest..could it be it's some kind of burden, a weight of problem..but since he loves her so, he doesn't mind her "being on the hill on his chest" --> love is like aburden, yet it makes you warm being so close each other.. | |
| Stars – The Very Thing Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
it's about a guy who couldn't appreciate or see the grace in his life. He has a kid and a wife that loves him, but he couldnt see them as the very thing he needed. he abandones his child, for he always go to bar, and only spends time with his kid when he coulcn't go to bar. the kid sees it like a love delusion... a fake one, just when he's about to have fun w his dad (finaly) and then it rains... ironic... so on...he wasted his wife, wasted his kid..his wife went..and suddenly he just realize her meaning to her.. sometimes you don't know what you have until you lose it.. |

| Imogen Heap – Goodnight and Go Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I've heard Frou-frou song's Breathe In,and i think it has the same meaning with this song. This one tells more about the scene than the denial though.. This man & woman are friends,maybe the man have a clue that this woman has feeling for him, since he often caught her daydreaming and all. They're very close friend, often go home together. The girl's home is closer, while the man should continue his journey using train. The girl always wish the man will stay, not going to his home, she even wish he miss the train. But it never happen though, maybe the man doesn't share the same feeling, or not sure yet about her feeling, since she always deny her feeling. so it's always Goodnight..(see you tomorrow) and then he go (continue his journey home),nothing ever happened to them. --thus in frou-frou song, this have the similar meaning to "is this it?" try listening to frou-frou Breathe In, i think these 2 song relates to each other and give complete meaning, so i think the girl isn't a stalker at all. "and i'm high enough from all the waiting, to ride a wave when youre inhaling, coz i love you? No!" --froufrou |

| Frou Frou – Breathe In Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Breathe in, is about a girl who has feeling for her friend.She knows him so well, they are close friend, so she also know he has feeling for other woman (the partying girl?). Somehow, maybe the man start to notice her feeling, but she denied it, she don't want to ruin the friendship. It's like -I rather be your friend, than to never see you again-- She started to act, to hide her feeling, she become someone she's not used to be Where was I? I have to be somewhere Now, where did I put it? she can't put old self together again. Is this it? i think refers to, -only friend- status..she expect more, but she's to afraid to gain it. She thinks she is happy enough by loving him (waiting) without hoping him to have the same feeling. funny now that i want to post meaning for her other song (Imogen Heap - Goodnight & Go) and i think this song have the similar meaning, the difference is, breathe in tells more about her feeling and denial, while goodnight & go tells more about the scene and the story.it's my personal judgement though.. is this it = goodnight and go... |

| Enya – Storms In Africa Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i think it's a about storm in africa (duh?!)....but in a metaphore. Africa, a dessert & dry country, isn't it always stormy and heavy when a rain come?because there's only small trees etc. But water is always a blessing in that dry area. Storm symbolize trouble or big problem.. ** Lift your heart Walk through the storms Lift your heart! Go through the storms ** get through it, don't run from your problems. the she says "long journey, LOOK THROUGH the storm" look beyond your trouble, there'll be some solution. After the storm, the blessing of the water will be the success and your achievement, you know --mistake / trouble that don't kill you only makes you stronger-- after the storm, maybe there will be a rainbow..right? i always think enya's song is so optimistic and inspiring.. daz_spaz, thank you for the translation, does Storm in africa II have the same meaning with this song? |

| Belle & Sebastian – Women's Realm Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I think it's about a girl#1, and this song is a conversation between friends (man & girl#2)talking about girl#1. Man (stuart): It's too late to phone her now "What went wrong, your grades were good It would take a left wing Robin Hood to pay for school Your dad's a boozer and you keep him alive" maybe girl#1 ranaway from school or home, and these friend are out looking for her and wandering what went wrong with her.. girl #2 (isobel) : Just a minute, close your eyes If we settle for this compromise I'll stay with you The river looks so good tonight I don't know what's with your friend She met a boy and at the summer's end She said she'd had enough of playing games Love it so much when it comes to that part..it's Isobel singing right? girl #2 actually have some feeling to this man, maybe she's jealous about the attention given to girl#1 and trying to stop the man from thinking about that girl "the river looks so good tonight, stay with me, forgot about her, she found someone anyway, she don't care about you.." --somekind of that i think.. but i don't understand the rest..who's goin to crash, who's deniying her/himself, about the sleeping train...dunno... |

| Catatonia – Strange Glue Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Do you smell somekind of affair in this song?? They know they can't be together, but there's this "strange bond" that holds them together.. i think the girl now engaged with someone else or so, and the marriage soon happen (or so..) so they only have a little time together -- while we still have the time..-- the girl want to devour each minute left with him, but "he has no right..she belongs to someone else" and so he wanted her to leave, eventhough he actually wanted her beside him. I will sleep safe and sound with nobody around me And if I cannot sleep for the secrets I keep It's the price I'm willing to meet maybe the secret is about the affair..and he doesn't regret it, it's like "i will accept the suffering, for i have the happiness for being with you all this time" owww..i think this what makes this song so sweet yet so painful. |

| The Boy Least Likely To – I'm Glad I Hitched My Apple Wagon To Your Star Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i agree with schernak... it's the right lyric.. but dang..i'm not understand the meaning..to me they just tell their road to their music right know.. and maybe this person whose apple wagon being hitched is someone who push and support and encourage them to this line of music / career... |

| Kings of Convenience – Toxic Girl Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Imperialist..i totally agree with you.. i don;t think the woman is a party girl or a swinger.. She's just a woman who consider everybody as friends, close to everybody with sincere feeling of friendship and the joy of being with anybody who lighten her heart. the woman is clueless to what people / men think about her in their heart, maybe many shared the same feeling of love toward her..but, she's just to "friendly" to see it as a feeling more than friend. With this kind of woman..well, the only way to get her to know your feeling is by saying it directly..then give her time..she may open her heart up to something more than friendship.. |

| Figurine – Stranger Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
whoeee..i love all figurine song, and personally "stranger" is the best one to me. Kinda remind me of movie "closer", how a stranger is mysteriously attractive.. i think, there's somekind of secure feeling if you feel in love with a stranger, the excitement is high, and you may fantasize endlessly about this stranger.. it's like having only the phisical appearance, then you could imagine and put whatsoever behaviour that you wish-or think he is. --voila, you got a perfect man -- the reason the want to stay being stranger is too keep this feeling..if you get to know better, you may realize, he/she is not the way you thought he was..and it bring dissapointment. just my oppinion...such a sweet song, wrapped in electronic way...NICE |

| Sinead O'Connor – This Is A Rebel Song Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
hmmm..i'm pretty sure it's Englishman..since i bought the tape--yes, cd was sooo expensive at that time-- the lyrics are in the inlay and it's written "englishman". I agree..it's about the conflict between ireland and england. I don't know much about the situation, who's right, who's wrong.. but with this song, sinead seems to put ireland as the side who suffers mostly,--well, in the fact that she is irish-- she bring this song to show her concern for the conflict, and how she wish that everything will end soon in peace.. btw, the inlay say, this album is ddedicated to the suffering of conflict in ireland, rwanda, aaand..bosnia area if i'm not mistaken.. |

| Shout Out Louds – Please Please Please Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
it's like when a long relationship become old and weary, thing are so-so and boring. They decided to broke up, because its too scary to wake up in same old clubs --> to be with the same person over and over again, i think this give us clue on how weary their relationship has gotten to. And they feel it's alright to broke up, because --- the streets always there for them -- there's always a road or way that will bind them together if they want to come back together or just to get along. i think this shows that eventhough they seem to had enough of each other, there's some feeling left inside and they still care each other deep inside. maybe this is somekind temporary break up, just to lighten up their relationship a bit. It's getting darker and I know this time wasn't meant for us --> like so lets separate until the time is right, and then please come back to me. waitt...when i read the lyric again..i think this decision is just from the man..i don't think the woman agree... so when they finally broke up, it hurts the woman feeling deeply. it's like "i'm tired of you now..go away for a while..i'll call you when i need you" (ever been in this condition??) so when the man finally get his feeling back and wanted to be with this woman again, the woman is quite reluctant because her heart wouded deeply. She pretend she doesn't know him, pretend she' already get over him. the man realize her "pretencion" and somehow realize she's actually still have feeling for him, but things wont be the same again. have you ever try to hide your eyes with your hair?? you actually still can see things around you through your hair, but it stops people to notice what you are looking at because they can't see your eyes. So this woman, blinded by her pride, actually still have feeling for the man but she doesn't want him to know that, because this man hurts her alot. this continues on until the man surrender, maybe turn to another woman, then "she can't find him anywhere" aah..i thought it was "it's like finding something pretty in a jar of lifes " but when i read this lyric,"a jar of flies" makes more sense to me. this is the way the man found out the feeling that she hide deep inside. --there's some feeling inspite all her prentencion of forgetting him--to see good things between bad situasion. fwahhh....that's from me..sorry lots of crap..hehee, anyone agree?? |

| Sigur Rós – Ný Batterí Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
timeoutt....out of these sigur ros vs thursday topic..i've a question downhere.. i love sigur ros and collecting all their albums and even their live performances. my friend give me a video - and hell he don't even remember where he got it - it's sigur ros performing live on ny batteri, at least the music is ny batteri, but somehow i figured out that the lyric is absolutely different from the original version in agaetis byrjun. i've search various lyric site and cannot find the lyric. the 5 minutes video starts with short interview with sigur ros in a bus taking them to the concert. On the stage, jonsi uses colorfull guitar with flower pattern (??),orri wears red shirt. they sing ny batteri but somehow the language seems gibberish to me, maybe hopelandic --aww..sorry for being a know-it-all, i dont speak icelandic, not even english..teehee- anyone seen this video??please kindly tell me where when was that concert, and mostly what language they use, the meaning and lyric would be great... pleaaassee..it haunts me for years.. (-_-)'' |

| Travis – Love Will Come Through Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
maybe the secret is his feeling towards her..they are friends, so he asks her to -hold it & keep it alive- to accept it and not letting it ruins their friendship. So look up, take it away--- If the world isn't turning Your heart won't return Anyone, anything, anyhow maybe she's still waiting for "someone outhere faraway", not realizing that it could be someone near her, and if she keeps on waiting, the chance will slip by, there's nobody who'll return her feeling. just look around..now..love (he)is waiting...oh..sooo sweet.. |
|
| Travis – Closer Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i think it's about couple in a relationship, which didn't work then they broke up. But he still cares for her and so does she. so..they know that they just need to be closer, without commitment or anything, knowing that they can rely on each other. Thinking of A second chance (a second chance) --> i swear the inlay says "second dance, second chance" -- whoch probably means they or he realizes that something is missing and he wants to get back to their relationship... well, that's just my thought though...hehe.. |
