| Hall and Oates – Kiss On My List Lyrics | 4 months ago |
| I heard this while waiting in the dentist's office and it blew me away. So fun! | |
| The Beatles – Yer Blues Lyrics | 4 months ago |
| Oh my gosh. For the last little bit they bury the vocals because of course. The pun. Dead and buried. So funny. | |

| The Police – Does Everyone Stare Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| I like to think that both halves of the relationship are represented here-- Copeland at the beginning with one, and then Sting representing the other person for the rest. Both are staring with intensity. It's sweet. | |
| Hall and Oates – Family Man Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| What a sad song. | |

| Steely Dan – Any Major Dude Will Tell You Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| I guess there's not any easy way to say one way or the other, but I wonder if this was Don talking to Walter to some degree, trying to encourage and support him. I just had the thought earlier today and can't shake it. | |
| Etta James – Tell Mama Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
Why isn't it: "She had another man throw you outdoors Now the same man is wearing your drawers" ???? (this song is so dang fun, though) |
|
| The Doors – The Unknown Soldier Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| Makes for an excellent (and despairing) counterpoint to U2's 'Heaven On Earth. | |
| The Doors – People Are Strange Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| @[Blackveilbrideloveletter:43462] with the "no one remembers your name" bit, I was literally witness (and for a while, participant) in this phenomena... it's a terrifyingly sad thing. I made a point of hammering that individual's name into my brain. I hope they're doing well. | |
| Phil Collins – Something Happened On The Way To Heaven Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| Honestly, I feel like the lyrics for this song are pretty terrible. Overly wordy and rather basic. That said, there's so much fun energy to the song as a whole that I can't help but enjoy it. | |
| Phil Collins – Something Happened On The Way To Heaven Lyrics | 1 year ago |

| @[anne101824:40947] Oh my, a comment from the me of 9 years ago! How strange. I must have just been a budding Evangelion fan then. Haha. This site is great for time capsule comments like this, I really enjoy it. :) | |
| BoA – Scoring Lyrics | 2 years ago |
| Bloody hell this song is rougher than I realized. Fantastic writing. Makes me want to punch the guy who inspired this. | |
| Donald Fagen – Tomorrow's Girls Lyrics | 2 years ago |
| I’ve always heard this one as more playful than threatening, shredding time aside… though that could be referring to surfing. ; ) | |

| @[Toronodo:39330] Gahahahaha. Look at lil' ol' college me. I'm nostalgic for... eh, I think I still don't feel it. ???? More grateful for all the more music I now got under my belt. ;D | |
| Loverboy – Working For The Weekend Lyrics | 2 years ago |

"you better start from the start" Was that the best they could do? Pretty dumb. Overall fun song, though. |

| @[shan4short:38836] Oh my gosh, of course it was Stevie. It just had to be. Love love love. | |
| Donald Fagen – Trans-Island Skyway Lyrics | 2 years ago |
| Is this like the only song that uses "daddy" to refer to the actual person's father? It's hilarious. ???? | |
| Steely Dan – King of the World Lyrics | 3 years ago |

| Spandau Ballet – Gold Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| @[protocon:36069] It's nice that even after all the destruction the robot has wrought the scientist is still supportive of her! He obviously really loved his creation. "Always believe in...!" | |

| Supertramp – Take The Long Way Home Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| @[longwayhome:35734] @[Insanity_Prevails:35735] Exactly! I think those final few lines paint a happy ending (up to interpretation of course) - makes it feel to me like a second chance or second wind. The subject has run off to do what they want to, they're "not around" for the same ol' stuff because they took the long way, thought about it, and made a decision. | |
| James Taylor – Fire And Rain Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| @[Lilacsweetie:35390] "possibly the most beautiful song ever written" I've had the same thought many times. I'm grateful to live in the same period of time when it exists. | |
| Elton John – Island Girl Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| @[SteelyDan:34889] This is exactly right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_Girl | |
| Blue Öyster Cult – Shooting Shark Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| Wikipedia says it was inspired by a Patti Smith poem. And I feel like the Shooting Shark is a comet or some such astral phenomena that is a yearly event. | |
| Steely Dan – The Second Arrangement Lyrics | 4 years ago |

| @[patobrien:34193] Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I really need to focus on appreciating drumming more, it's usually so subtle but it adds so much. | |

| BoA – Drinking Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| Really great final song for the album. Wrap up all that pain in some hope. | |
| The Monkees – (I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| J-pop band SCANDAL's song Shojo S sounds quite a bit like this. Possible inspiration? | |
| The Monkees – Mr. Webster Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| Ahh, never could quite catch what they were saying in the song. Not particularly fond of it, seems trying to be The Beatles tooo much. Glad it's got a sorta funny story to it instead of somber as the tune would suggest. Stinky Mr. Frizby, why not give Webster that dollar raise, would've been Nice. | |
| The Monkees – Gonna Buy Me A Dog Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| Love this, makes me laugh every time. Even without the ad-libbing I think it's pretty clever, going for a nice spin on the "my girl left me / I can't find a girl" songs and finding optimism in some four-legged companionship instead. | |
| Blue Öyster Cult – Burnin' For You Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| This is just such an all-around knockout of a song that I can hardly handle it. Frikkin' masterpiece. Got some good comments going here, too, nice to learn a bit of the history and meaning. | |
| The Monkees – Zor And Zam Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| Has a very Shel Silverstein feel to it. Fantastic writing, and the passion (and scorn for worthless fighting) that is put into the vocals is wonderful. Definitely one of my favorites. | |
| Electric Light Orchestra – Turn To Stone Lyrics | 6 years ago |
| @[Egghead15229:26509] Oh gosh, did you just turn to st | |
| Nana Kitade – Kesenai Tsumi Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| I love how her voice sounds when she's singing this, it really sounds like she's putting her all into it, full of passion. It may not be the best singing, but it certainly has power. | |
| John Mellencamp – R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| Beat sounds like it was stolen from 'What I Like About You,' which came out first and is, in my opinion, a better song anyhow. Song sounds so forced, unlike some other tributes to stars of the past. Blech. | |
| 10cc – I'm Not In Love Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| Every time I hear this song start I think it's Hall and Oates' 'She's Gone' and then I'm disappointed. Not that this is a bad song, just that I'd rather hear 'She's Gone.' Funny that they have a similar subject matter. | |
| Grateful Dead – Truckin' Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| Is 'Do-Dah Man' referring to any particular individual? | |
| Yoko Kanno – I Do Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| Song was already making me tear up and now I know that I know the English lyrics....... man oh man. Beautiful. | |
| The JaneDear Girls – Wildflower Lyrics | 7 years ago |
| Love this song, has such great rhythm to it. Very straightforward meaning - this girl is kick@$$! | |
