| Tomas Barfod – Pulsing Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| After watching the music video with the juxtaposition of animal carcasses and young couple, I think the lyrics' repetition of 'hearts', pulsing blood and 'forcing it into us' refer to both the adrenaline and blood rush of an intimate relationship and the slaughtering of animals. The dead animals in the Butcher shop demonstrate how we consume and force this now cold blooded animal into our systems, which keeps our blood pumping and our hearts pulsing. | |

| Fiona Apple – Werewolf Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I read some new interviews Fiona did and she mentioned how she's realized how she's the only constant variable with each relationship that ends. This caused her to examine herself, and I feel like this song presents her as the catalyst for the werewolf she brings out of the 'super guy'. She's not blaming other people like she admitted to doing in earlier albums. The werewolf/moon analogy illustrates how she sparks his dangerous werewolf transformation. the shark/bleeding open wound analogy demonstrates that she lured him into her demise(decapitation). The volcano reference is both intriguing and beautiful. Since he made an island of her, she was the 'lava that shot up hot from under the sea'. He isolated her, brought her to the surface and cooled her down but left her alone and motionless. The chemical verse shows that they don't get along, 'you and me wouldn't mix' but she returns(to him or sensibility?) for the 'fiction of the fix' that provides an addictive, unrealistic, pretend fantasy. Their inability to mix also connects with the "we can still support each other all we got to do is avoid each other" lines since they can only get along when they're apart. When they're apart he's a 'superguy' until she's nearby and he 'gets a whiff of [Fiona]'. I'm not gonna try to interpret the wishing well/bolt of electricity one that seems really open-ended. I can only relate wishing wells to the fictions/pretense that everything is okay/ignoring problems. 'Nothing wrong when a song ends in the minor key' Pretending that things are okay when they're not 'major' problems, just 'minor' things that will go away.(omg get it? thank you piano lessons it's all worth it now) In the pitchfork interview she said that the laughing children was inspired when she was playing the song as a fighting scene broke out on the movie she had playing on TCM. I think the screaming kids(originally fighting) is meant to create a sense of the werewolf as it attacks its victim on a full moon. Here's the excerpt from the interview: ------- Pitchfork: What about the sound of children screaming on "Werewolf"-- it seems to come out of nowhere. FA: I wrote that song while staying at my mother's apartment up in Harlem. Whenever there's a TV, I put on [Turner Classic Movies]-- I always have it on, while I sleep, whatever. I was recording myself doing the song for the first time, and a battle broke out in the movie that was playing. People were shooting and screaming. I liked it, but I couldn't use it from the movie, so I spent literally the next year trying to recreate that sound. I went to San Francisco for Halloween and I was hanging out in trollies recording people screaming. I would walk past a bunch of drunk people and be like: "Hey, scream!" But it would always sound wrong and stupid. But on the first morning we were planning to record, I had just gotten out of the shower and I heard all these kids screaming-- there's an elementary school across from my house in L.A. I was like, "Oh shit, that's it." I threw on whatever was right there-- which I didn't realize at the time was a pair of pants that I was going to throw away because the ass was split-- and I ran out, half-clothed, carrying my recording thing. I was standing there looking like a crazy person, watching these kids. They were jumping with balloons between their legs, trying to make them pop. In the actual song, we had to take out all the balloon pops because they sounded like gunshots. But it was so perfect. full interview here: http://pitchfork.com/features/interviews/8853-fiona-apple/ ---------- |

| Peter Bjorn and John – Start to Melt Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
John brought an interesting take on it, with the affair. I love the simplicity of this as well, it's so concisely put but it still has such great impact. To me it follows the ebb and flow of a relationship with each stanza correlating to a different emotions/events within the relationship. There are TWO parts to this that lead me to two conclusions. ONE, based off of John's interpretation that he has a separate affair that he leaves to remain in love with this girl. The SECOND is based off the last line 'And the words, saying it's OK' that made me think that she apologized for telling him to leave her. Here's the interpretation for conclusion 1: 1st Stanza: He's infatuated with the relationship(starts to melt), and she returns those feelings since her arms are around his waist. When she tells him to fade, at first I thought she was trying to distance him from her, but I'm leaning toward John's interpretation that she wants him to fade from someone/something else. If her arms weren't around his waist, it would make more sense that she'd be telling him to fade away from her in an attempt to end the relationship. 2nd Stanza: To her request, he 'fades' away from someone/something and her arms remain around his waist signaling that their relationship is still going strong. To reinforce this, she tells him to stay, which at this point actually seems redundant, but what can you do songs gotta follow a pattern. 3rd Stanza: He stays engrossed in the relationship and 'starts to melt' again. This time his arms are around her waist because he has his full attention on her now. Since she had asked him to leave someone/something for her, he comforts her and reminds her 'it's ok'. Interpretation for Conclusion 2: Stanza 1: He's in love with her(starts to melt) but she's got her arms around his waist while she tells him to distance himself from her and take things slow(telling me to fade) Stanza 2: He obliges and 'fades' away but she's still holding on. She changes her mind and tells him to stay in the relationship. Stanza 3: His love remains and she feels remorseful having asked for some space but he comforts her and tells her 'it's ok', they're still together. Beautiful song and touching lyrics. |

| Nicolas Jaar – With Just One Glance Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
love this song too, can't believe it's bruce willis' daughter.. anyway. This person maintains a specific persona/reputation/image (look like my name) that includes a corset, diamonds, pearls, and a skirt. I'm guessing she's around lots of money, so she could be a celebrity, prostitute, or just a girl from a high profile family. When I see you standing there The evening sun upon your hair Covered up with garden dirt With just one glance you tear my skirt This part makes me more inclined to believe it's a prostitute... but that might be too literal of an interpretation. So there's this person, covered with garden dirt, perhaps a gardener or at least someone who isn't clean, and definitely not from her class/status, that turns her on with just one glance. Overall, I think this song is about the struggle to keep up one's seemingly perfect appearance while having a little rendezvous... One blog very fittingly called this Jaar's most seductive track yet. I love the saxophone after she says 'And I say...'. |

| Devendra Banhart – I Remember Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I love how piercing this song is, especially for a melancholy day. What do you guys think "twenty one shells wrapped in a nest" could refer to? My first impression of this song was about a family relation(the flesh & blood part) as stated by others before me. My favorite lines are: "I remember the never ending summer rain. Please don't let what was get in the way of whats next. Don't forget that whats to come hasn't come yet." The first is a great metaphor, how the pregnancy/whole situation keeps the sun from shining during summertime. I appreciate how Devendra presents difficult and dark times, but always ends them with an uplifting/encouraging statement for those who connected with the beginning/middle of the songs. It's like he's giving a pep talk to anyone who empathizes with similar emotions. In that sense, the spark that inspires him to write in the first place could be to help people, family, friends who need some consoling. If so then this theory supports marieH's idea. Anyway, this theory is partly based on Devendra's song 'My Dearest Friend', which i think has a similar uplifting message to one of his friends(describing the sentiment, then providing comfort). |

| Devendra Banhart – Foolin' Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
After watching the video I was quite intrigued as to the meaning of this.. so let's see. It seems to relate to the general themes of religion and love 'one step at a time'. On the other hand the title is foolin', specifically 'on the human population'. So putting these together I'm guessing it's about having faith in religion, love and humanity, while the very same faith and religion is used for creating fear and the opposite of love, 'Fearing oh I'm sure gettin' better; With every morn a new fear is born'. While he continues to love, "trusting trusting trusting Knowing that we're in it together Free to face unknown, free to overcome" he's conflicted by others who are "foolin'" the population by negatively interpreting religion, which causes him to fear he's also foolin others. In the end, he still has hope and continues to have faith. While watching the video he reminded me of Jesus, with the flagellation, lack of clothing, skinnyness.. haha and at the beginning when the man opens the door saying "Do you?", Devendra answers by opening his jacket a little to reveal the tattoo on his chest reading 'FE' which means faith in spanish. Therefore, he begins the video by saying he has faith. Maybe a greater theme/message to the song/video is to stay positive a day at a time, and to do good with what you know- even if others aren't. Although... he deliberately knocked on the door, so maybe he was aware of what would come but wanted to go through it to learn more through experience? Harder experiences and life situations can lead to the most growth. |

| iamamiwhoami – ; john Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
'As I stay a little while longer In this dusty rabbit hole' my favorite part. great build up. as far as interpretation goes, i'm guessing it's like an inverted world of twisted ethics. In the 'dusty rabbit hole' she's filthy, yet good and 'not mean'. Maybe it's a prostitute/slut's messed up mind? or as an artist/singer, how she's become 'filthy' in terms of the sexual aspect of her videos. From this performance, she's 'our' slut, 'granting [us] art', and singing thus breaking the silence that was once considered 'gold'. Last but not least, she's staying in the 'dusty rabbit hole' of music and story oriented, surreal short films to 'sing [her] song chained onto our bed'. As we listen/watch, we take the memory/tune to bed when we sleep and recall it. I'm more prone to believe the latter, but who knows. |

| Alex Turner – Piledriver Waltz Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
love this one, can't wait for submarine to come out......... is a piledriver some kind of trash pickup or maintenance sort of truck? and by waltzing it was driving by early in the morning(which is the time they do it around me)and woke him up? if so, then it's like the garbage or crap in life is interrupting his life. there are a lot of depressing references in this one: unhappy ending, leaving, annoying garbage truck(if accurately interpreted..), heartbreak hotel, how to lose, miserable waitress/food... "If you're gonna try and walk on water make sure you wear your comfortable shoes" To make this fit the theme of the rest of the lyrics, this could be about suicide, by drowning. I'm not sure about the meaning behind the following lines: "Mysteries flashing amber Go green when you answer But the red on the rest of the questionnaire never changes I heard the news that you're planning To shoot me out of a cannon" perhaps this last part alludes to some sort of volatile situation ending with a blowup against the protagonist. The following, although it revolves around time, i'll conjecture that it's the imminent end of the relationship mentioned in the following line when "you're leaving". seems plausible. "I etched the face of a stopwatch on the back of a raindrop And did a swap for the sand in an hourglass" overall about a crap situation, end of a relationship, being miserable, disliking everything, thoughts about suicide, so depression. catchy though. |

i'll do this quickly: quicksand, so in the book of the same name 'Submarine', Oliver intentionally gets stuck in quicksand like mud. eh i guess it wasn't quicksand so maybe this doesn't even apply haha nvm... well the first verse strikes me as about to get something, then being unable to. and the title seems like the theme of struggling against an impediment of some sort. i'll stick with that. |

| Wild Nothing – Live in Dreams Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Why focus on an ephemeral love based in reality when the experience, memory, and fantastic elation can last forever in eternal dreams or death, since living in dreams is separate from the physical, reality of life. "I'd rather live in dreams and I'd rather die" The end of this relationship is in sight "our lips won't last forever" I'm not so sure what to make of the "we've got eyes on the back of our heads" lines.. maybe they're alluding to the 360 vision, or comprehensive outlook on love and life? I interpret "I could ask you 'are you dead like me?'" part as the protagonist declaring that he is already living in an everlasting fantasy, the infatuation of their lips 'lasting forever', ultimately removed from reality and therefore dead. ;but a happy dead. So happy that escaping to the idea of 'their lips lasting forever' is preferable to living. also love the high highs cover. it's very dreamy, like a never-ending, serenity. |

Just to set the record straight and clear my conscience, whatever I wrote, can be totally disregarded(i don't remember what i wrote anymore, and i'm too lazy to reread it..) it's about that part inside of anyone that holds them back from 'going and doing' anything. Definitely self destructive as jiggadywig and probably someone else said too. it's like a cage holding in a perfect bird. Fear or whatnot restraining the protagonist from doing whatever the hell he/she wants! |

that's exactly it. To go into more detail, in the interview he did with Attitude he explains that he would get drunk with his best friends and they'd end up having sex. However, his friends were all straight so they'd never talk about it after and that's really sad! so applying that to this song, I guess he never appreciated or really knew his friends as much until they were gone :( or vice versa actually! oh poor jonsi, at least he has alex now :) |

| Jónsi – Tornado Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
This song resonates soo much! I die at the line "You kill from the inside". This song killed me from the inside when I saw him live. He destroyed me from the inside. Best experience of my life. Sounded SO much better than the recording which is still moving.. I love you Jónsiii! He has the cutest accent.. I told him it was hard not to cry from the concert while at the record signing. ANYWAY... So the meaning... first I wanted to decide on who 'you' was referencing, and after debating if it's a significant other or love interest(which could very well be argued) I think it might be an impersonal statement. Impersonal, although Jonsi is probably taking it from his point of view and experience. So picture his situation and how he's generalizing it to a hypothetical situation applicable to anyone. It's like he's saying- when this ___ happens 'you' grow, become a tornado etc., as in anyone. He makes these statements, then adds thoughts from his own example. This is shown through the lines: 'I wonder if I'm allowed just ever to be' 'I wonder if I'm allowed ever to see I wonder if I'm allowed to ever be free' where Jonsi is obviously talking about himself. This line made me think that he feels like somethings trying to change him or bother him. I actually changed my mind about the 'you's' being an impersonal statement. It's mostly just talking directly to the hypothetical catalyst: 'You grow from the inside Destroy everything through Destroy from the inside You flow through the inside You kill everything through You kill from the inside' He maybe only uses the impersonal statement to reference a hypothetical person in a similar situation in the lines "You'll learn to know". Although that could be about the catalyst learning it's error. Maybe it is a person. Anyway, the catalyst first attacks internally and causes further turmoil. Probably an idea, statement, feeling that offends Jonsi and causes that sick feeling of regret or depression that just eats away and away. Picture a tornado or erupting volcano inside of you. Anyway the problem mushrooms as the power of the song heightens then kind of gets quiet and dead, almost like a death "You're now so blue, You now are gloom". I'm kind of stuck here. I'm not sure how much sense this makes because of my inconsistency. Well I'll pass the baton here: |

| MGMT – Congratulations Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
It's almost certainly sarcastic because ever verse has a negative connotation implying how fame etc isn't that great at all. This is evidence more vaguely in the other lines, but in the more straight forward lines here we go: "Dead in the water It's not a paid vacation" "Out with a wimper It's not a blaze of glory" "So I can't see what's really there" "I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me" "But damn my luck and damn these friends A new thought, is about their disdain for fame, yes, but more specifically how it's changed the people around them which could be interpreted from the following lines: "You look down from your temple As people endeavor to make it a story" "But I've got someone to make reports That tell me how my money's spent To book my stays and draw my blinds So I can't see what's really there" "I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me" "But damn my luck and damn these friends That keep on combing back their smiles" |
|
| MGMT – Congratulations Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I really enjoy this, the feel of the song completely changes how I interpreted it. The slower halfsteps, minor chords, and mellow or almost unpersonalized feel of this is far from electric. (intended reference, yes). I'll specify what I mean by the tone of voice later. Going by stanza seems easier and more thorough. I might read too far into it this way, but we both have the time to pretend we see it for what it is. (ha) "Dead in the water It's not a paid vacation The sons and daughters of city officials Attend demonstrations It's hardly a sink or swim When all is well if the ticket sells" It's not as great as it seems. Fame, I mean. Teens of officials(who are important, most likely have wealth, high status people in government/community) go to demonstrations, which could be mgmt's concerts, or their parents announcements? If a show is sold out, it's not a failure or a success for various reasons. It's not the former because what mgmt is showcasing is getting out somewhere. It's not the latter because it's not all about the money. "Out with a wimper It's not a blaze of glory You look down from your temple As people endeavor to make it a story And chisel a marble word But all is lost if it's never heard" Wimper, could suggest guilt, injustice, sadness, unhappiness... all because being so 'successful' isn't a.. blaze of glory.. At that high point, people under them try to make even more money by exploiting them, however, this is worthless, supposedly, when it doesn't get out to the people. "But I've got someone to make reports That tell me how my money's spent To book my stays and draw my blinds So I can't see what's really there And all I need's a great big congratulations" Okay, here's my favorite, the sarcasm and irony just spews out. The real reason I love this song! Now that mgmt's famous, they've got people tending to them and doing all the tedious work. As a result, this isolates mgmt from reality. So Andrew's saying how just to top off this alienation to venue-filling, he should be congratulated for the 'success', the 'fame'. Glorious! I'm skipping the next two stanza's! "But damn my luck and damn these friends That keep on combing back their smiles I save my grace with half-assed guilt And lay down the quilt upon the lawn Spread my arms and soak up congratulations" damn his luck and friends, he would rather do away with it because they keep 'combing back their smiles', i'm not sure which way to take this. It could be combing back as in making it disappear, or fixing their smiles. Either way, they're doing something ingenuine, and untrue to their feelings probably of praise for mgmt's success. He/They feel slightly guilty, but not really because they wrote the songs, recorded them, agreed to what they've done and now they just bask in the aftereffects of all this by laying in the lawn, etc. I just love how they express their view on where they are in the music industry. Although it is very repetitive, without any of their hooks from Oracular Spectacular, maybe that was the point here.. to almost bring it to a looping neverending cycle that represents what their life was/is like all mainstream. It's all so great I just want to leave this interpretation without a definite ending because |

| Monsters of Folk – Temazcal Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
'the love we made at gunpoint wasn't love at all' I love this line, I'm not sure how to apply it to my other theories about this song though.. Maybe it's just another thought mixed in. That being forced to do something doesn't validate the action. It could be trying to give artificial love to the world or god or something, but for unjustified reasons. 'i watch you braid your hair, you're from another time when the earth wasn't so angry and god was on our side' I see this as before the earth was so manipulated by man, and this person, probably a girl, braiding her hair is from that time without the excess people search for now. From a simpler time perhaps. 'looking through the trees cities and the seas things we've seen ovnis on the lawn they're there and then they're gone there and then they're gone' End of the world, all these things disappearing. Or maybe it's just that they're hard to see or understand? Like if you look from the simpler time viewpoint like that girl braiding her hair when god was on our side, a viewpoint from from a forest, through the trees, then other irrelevant products of man's ego disappear like cities? But seas are natural.. hm someone else can perfect this. 'the mayans stole tomorrow, hid it underground' and 'they're screaming in the calle that there are stars about to fall' From these lines I infer the 2012 Mayan prophecy of the end of the world. They stole tomorrow, the future, and stars about to fall is the destruction of the world which i think Nostradamus describes of the world's poles switching or something. Calle in spanish means street, road also. 'searching west and east all points in between and underneath the hand of god you're there and then you're not ' Someone's either looking for this person who's underneath the hand of God, or is there. Underneath the hand of god could be portrayed as protection. Sometimes there(under protection, being earthly) and sometimes not(not under god, indulging in wants, desires, etc). Another interpretation is exactly the opposite of said protection. underneath the hand of god, like the destruction of the world under the hand of god. You're thre and then you're not, you're alive, then you're dead. Idk there's alot of ways to take this. |

| Bright Eyes – Coat Check Dream Song Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
if it is about being in the womb like a comment on the first page said, then here's how it slightly connects. a false feeling, because it'd be from the mother? slept with the dealer all summer- inside the dealer's womb feeling the ecstasy of her drugs Lullaby sounds from the engine In my styrofoam coffin, asleep on the interstate- styrofoam coffin is the womb, and the child's asleep in the middle of thigns i'm not quite sure myself if it is about being in the womb, but we can guess. If so, i'd think its the child's experience in the womb, as well as it's opinion of the world like what you guys said about democracy and all the things happening to the world. Like the child's view on mankind is the rest of the lyrics that don't fit with the womb references. (i only read the comments from the first two pages though) |
