Timber Timbre – Magic Arrow Lyrics 11 years ago
I think you're right about that. I think the main 'character' of the narration is a missionary who wanted to 'heal' the natives with Christianity. The missionary was positive about the journey, anxious to introduce Christianity and possibly medicine to the natives until he sees the white rider take, and take some more (of the native's lives and land)

The magic arrows are probably bullets.

Grum – Heartbeats Lyrics 12 years ago
We're not authorized to display the lyrics of a song that just goes Heartbeats (ah-ah), heartbeats (ah-ah), heartbeats (ah-ah), heartbeats (ah-ah)x50.

God forbid someone tries to rip-off the lyricism, lol.

Fan-fucking-tastic song though. So good. This whole album is absolutely stunning.

James Blake – To Care (Like You) Lyrics 13 years ago
This song is absolutely shaking down to the core. Each note is unbelievably vibrant, and James Blake ties it all together with oozy vocals reminiscent of soft rock artists, oddly enough. He then tunes his own voice to create extravagant harmonies layered in with his chilly bass lines. If you like minimal music with intense soul and passion behind it, Blake's your guy.

You could call James Blake "dubstep", but that implies that dubstep is the predominant genre,rather, Blake puts the dubstepness on the back burner, letting it add value to the foreground (As opposed to beefy wobbles that dominate the soundscape)and accentuate his own stylization on an eerie downtempo soulful musical chimera.

James Blake doesn't exactly jive with everyone. His work has been criticized as meaningless, but i think his skill is putting as much meaning in as little a package as possible.

But that's just like, my opinion, man. Just enjoy the music guys.

James Blake – Limit to Your Love Lyrics 13 years ago
I was listening to this song in class and just about lost myself when the lower bass-line started. My pants may be a bit wet.

James Blake – The Wilhelm Scream Lyrics 13 years ago
Come on MrFog, the beauty of music comes from within. If we perceive beauty and meaning from James Blake's songs, it's just as real as any objective aesthetic beauty or complex musical theory with deep meaningful lyrics.

Have you been listening on a radio or headphones/earbuds? A lot of Blake's work is below the perceptual limit of speakers.

I think James Blake puts intense emotion in every calculated line of each sound. Even if he's just producing a bunch of garbage, if it means something to people who see something in his music, that is just as meaningful as the enjoyment you may get out of analyzing and criticizing music. We're all in the listening music game to enjoy ourselves, but we don't all look at each part. Actually, one of the things i like about Blake is how minimal and simple some rhythms are. I don't know a lot of music theory, but it's easy for me to understand his work. I think he puts soul into every note, but if you don't hear it, you don't hear it. Just move onto the next thing that catches your ear.

Man.

I think it's:

And if there's a God, he's a little God

because it would follow the pattern of the first line.

White Lies – The Price of Love Lyrics 14 years ago
Here's the legit lyrics from the CD pamphlet:

*****

"Don't lay a finger" I said but he held her with five
Kissed the crest of her lips
And put his hand on her thigh
"One million in a week or a the girl's gonna go"
"I'd kill you in a second" He laughed, "Yeah, i know"

I won eight hundred thousand on a game show
But it's not enough to win her back
As my tears hit the floor he still said "Come on
Man give me some slack"
I looked at the case he said "I'll show you her
Blood"
I screamed down the phoneline
"So is this the price of love?"

When I stare in your eyes i see the image of god
Well girl listen out for the phonecall and pray
For a flood
I called a quarter past nine and said "I've don
All i can"
He said "You win some you lose some
I feel bad for you man"
He slammed down the phone and took his coat
From the bed
She said "What happens now" "Well to your
Husband you're dead"
She said "I love you" and pleaded for hero to
Stay
But knew deep inside that he'd planned it this way

"I gave him my heart now he's left it to die
and I know I can't go back"
He walked out the room shouted "see you
around"
She said "Come one give me some slack"
He said "There's no hope but babe you can wait for
that dove"
She screamed from the window
"So is this the price of love?"

So is this the price of love?"

The formatting may seem weird, but in the booklet it's formatted to read like poetry.

White Lies – A Place to Hide Lyrics 14 years ago
Though what you said seems plausible, i think it is more of a scuffle with a individual person. He did something terrible and wants forgiveness from his girlfriend/friends etc.

White Lies – Death Lyrics 14 years ago
Straight from the CD insert. So these are the official lyrics:

I love the feeling when we lift off
Watching the world so small below
I love the dreaming when I think of
The safety in the clouds out my window
I wonder what keeps us so high up
Could there be love beneath these wings?
If we suddenly fall should I scream out?
Or keep very quiet and cling to
My mouth as I'm crying
So frightened of dying
"Relax" Yes I'm trying
But fear's got a hold on me.

Yes this fear's got a hold of me.

I love the quiet of the night time
When the sun has drowned in a deathly sea.
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from.
The sense of time catching up with me.
The sky set out like a pathway
But who decides which route we take?
As people drift into a dream world
I close my eyes and my hands shake
And will i see a new day?
Who's driving this anyway?
I picture my own grave
'Cos fear's got a hold of me

Yes this fear's got a hold of me

Floating neither up or down
I wonder when I hit the ground
Will the earth beneath my body shake
And cast your sleeping hearts awake?
Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies?
Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes?
I'll live on the right side and sleep on the left
That's why everything's got to be love or death

Yes this fear's got a hold of me.

******

Some of it may not sound right but that's what the CD booklet says, so that's what they are.

I'm pretty sure it's "and pleaded for our hero to stay" instead of "and pleaded for a hero to save"

Handsome Furs – Handsome Furs Hate This City Lyrics 15 years ago
In my opinion, this song is about forgetting about modern technology, and opening your heart without the machine. I think it's also about how materialistic people are these days and completely forget about love.

Also, it's "Opened my heart, just a machine"
