The Killers – Somebody Told Me Lyrics | 10 years ago |
It's really not that complicated. A lot of the comments were speculating on whether the narrator was gay or not, and generally questioning his sexual orientation. My point was that he was not gay, and he /could/ be either straight or bisexual, but that the question is completely irrelevant to what the song is about. And that is that the narrator is upset that the woman he's interested in is dating his ex-girlfriend, as stated in the chorus. |
The Avett Brothers – Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise Lyrics | 10 years ago |
That's exactly how I interpreted it as well. |
t.A.T.u. – All My Love Lyrics | 10 years ago |
The Russian version lyrics ("Vsya moya lyubov'") are more intense. I recommend you give that one a listen if you like this. It features both girls' vocals. |
Broken Bells – The High Road Lyrics | 10 years ago |
This is my favorite interpretation I've read so far. |
Brandy – I Tried Lyrics | 10 years ago |
"Sparks", on their first album Parachutes. |
Metric – Help, I'm Alive Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Totally. I also first imagined a zombie attack scenario. Of course, I knew it was metaphorical, but I still sometimes imagine it that way =P |
t.A.T.u. – White Robe (English Version) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
That reply was to TheDirge, by the way. |
t.A.T.u. – White Robe (English Version) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Not really. The line, "All the lies they keep on telling" is actually "All the lies they keep on spelling." And it's "Word is written, bond is broken." |
The Killers – Somebody Told Me Lyrics | 12 years ago |
It doesn't mean he's gay. He seems to be trying to ask out a girl in the song. So he could be bisexual. Or he could be straight, because I think the chorus is referring to the girl in the song dating another girl. |
The Killers – Somebody Told Me Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Yeah, I think you're probably right. But like Acivilian said, I think the girl in the song is actually dating another girl, possibly his ex-girlfriend! So he gives up. |
The Killers – Somebody Told Me Lyrics | 12 years ago |
Or bisexual....Either way, she's probably cheating on him. =\ |
The Killers – Somebody Told Me Lyrics | 12 years ago |
I've always loved this song and wondered what it meant. I agree with your theory. Except the girlfriend could be bisexual, there's not just gay or straight. |
Rise Against – Help Is On The Way Lyrics | 12 years ago |
That makes sense! I did wonder about that line. |
Rise Against – Help Is On The Way Lyrics | 12 years ago |
You're both right! I recognized the Gulf oil spill reference as soon as I heard it, but I didn't know about it also being about Hurricane Katrina until I looked up the song. The chorus about help being on the way definitely reminds me of New Orleans in the days and weeks following the disaster. This is an incredible song. |
Arcade Fire – Neighborhood #2 (Laika) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
@tifnz Interesting! I think you're on to something. @special3lend That's also what I thought about when I Googled the name "Laika" and found out it was the dog they first sent to space. |
t.A.T.u. – Белочка (Belochka) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
But you told me That everything would be easy. That we needed this, And that's how grown-ups are. Locks and laces, Bursting into tears. Accidental points, Everything's very serious. Because... It's hard to be a boy when you are a girl. It's hard to be a girl when you are a boy. Oh, but maybe I can be a little squirrel? Oh, and maybe you can be a little hare? And what if we ran away And left no trace of ourselves And not get pushed over the gaps And be the last to hide? Smeared with paint, Silly questions We'll take off our masks. And become grown-ups. It's hard to be a boy when you are a girl. It's hard to be a girl when you are a boy. Oh, but maybe I can be a little squirrel? Oh, and maybe you can be a little hare? It's hard to be a boy when you are a girl. It's hard to be a girl when you are a boy. Oh, but maybe I can be a little squirrel? Oh, and maybe you can be a little hare? |
t.A.T.u. – Prostye Dvizheniya (English Version) Lyrics | 12 years ago |
This is the English translation, not the English version. Sadly, the English version was never officially released, but I believe it was recorded. I was told by someone who administrates at Julia's website forum that Boris Rensky (their last manager) was the one who chose not to release it on "The Best" album. That's a shame, as many fans (such as myself) would like to hear it. Yulia mentioned the English version in a radio interview last year (Cherrytree t.A.T.u. Hour). She sang a small part of the chorus. It was similar to the Russian version: "Simple motions Over and over!" |
t.A.T.u. – Ya Ne Glotau Lyrics | 12 years ago |
This is definitely not t.A.T.u. Please remove this from t.A.T.u.'s lyrics. |
Lena Katina – Never Forget Lyrics | 12 years ago |
This song is actually called "Never Forget" now and is available on iTunes, along with "Stay". |
t.A.T.u. – Obezyanka Nol Lyrics | 13 years ago |
@caffe1ne FWI, they stopped the "fake lesbian" thing years and years before you posted that. And yes, they do sometimes "kiss", but it's little pecks. Kisses among friends is not uncommon in Russia. And t.A.T.u. sings MATURE SONGS. All the time. Their music is far more mature than the typical pop band. Just read their lyrics. This song is not the only meaningful, mature song they have sung. They have many songs about this very subject, in fact. So before you judge, actually take a look and see for yourself. |
Hilary Duff – (I'll Give) Anything But Up Lyrics | 13 years ago |
I agree, having a #1 album doesn't indicate quality. There are a lot of bad artists who are popular. Not that I'm a Hilary hater. I just don't think the #1 album thing is her greatest quality. |
Hilary Duff – Cry Lyrics | 13 years ago |
This song is beautiful, one of the most beautiful, meaningful songs of Hilary Duff. I'm not a huge fan, but I really like this. |
t.A.T.u. – All The Things She Said Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Drybanana is correct! Lena is against labels, and Yulia calls herself a bisexal, but both of them don't care about gender or orientation. They simply love. And that is the message of t.A.T.u.: Not about being lesbian, straight, or bisexual, but about loving. |
t.A.T.u. – Don't Regret Lyrics | 13 years ago |
The correct lyrics are: You don't regret Your PAST embraces Time will forget Phrases and faces It's in the lyrics booklet. |
t.A.T.u. – Don't Regret Lyrics | 13 years ago |
The correct first lines are: You don't regret Your past embraces Time will forget Phrases and faces It's in the lyrics booklet. |
t.A.T.u. – White Robe (English Version) Lyrics | 13 years ago |
The official lyrics booklet says the line is, "Word is written, BOND is broken." Bone makes more sense to me, but it's really bond. |
t.A.T.u. – White Robe (English Version) Lyrics | 13 years ago |
The Russian lyrics was a poem written by a girl on their website forums. |
t.A.T.u. – You and I Lyrics | 13 years ago |
*Just a side lol |
t.A.T.u. – You and I Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Correction from the Waste Management lyrics booklet: Just aside to an anguished street Criticized for what we believe If we hide maybe we can make it through this Is it fair to be burned away? Is it fair that we live this way? Victimized for a life we didn't ask for. Comment: I really love this song. It reminds me of the power of Not Gonna Get Us and All About Us. It's like t.A.T.u.'s friendship/love anthem. It's great! |
t.A.T.u. – Time of the Moon Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Some of the words are incorrect. The correction below is from the Waste Management lyrics booklet: We're killing space And wasting time And dying hard And spilling beans We're moving fast on intuition In the world of stupid things We are the fliers, no return And no regrets, and no delay Into the frenzy, this is crazy Burning wheels to get away Time of the moon In the sky cloud is breaking Voice of the doom For the birds in the making The time is wasted On intuition We are the fliers Into the frenzy We're spilling bids On stupid things With no delay We get away Time of the moon In the sky cloud is breaking Voice of the doom For the birds in the making No destination is the way We're talking of accelerate Get rid of garbage, yes you may They draw the bridge but it's too late We are the final revelation Shooting through the burning sky Abandoned cargo hits the ground On broken wings we are flying high. |
Evanescence – Sweet Sacrifice Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Not trying to be an ass or anything. I just disagree. =) |
Evanescence – Sweet Sacrifice Lyrics | 13 years ago |
"And we can all agree that the pre-fallen EP's tracks are the best." No offense, but no we can't. Fallen was awesome. I love Evanescence's new stuff, even The Open Door. Their style is simply changing. Every band and artist grows. Some people will have different opinions. Some people loved Evanescence for their old sound because that's the music they prefer, and other people prefer the new stuff. Personally, I love the new style. Amy isn't a teenager anymore, she's grown and matured, just as I have. I feel their music has grown with me. And while I prefer their Fallen lyrics, I don't think the Open Door lyrics are bad either. |
Muse – City of Delusion Lyrics | 13 years ago |
I completely agree with both of you, and the Lennon quote is one of my favorites. |

t.A.T.u. – Защищаться Очками (Zashtishtat'sya Ochkami) Lyrics | 13 years ago |
This is your land, This is your country, It is your love, It is your soul. This is your moon, This is your star, It is your night, It is yours forever It is my game, That fixed the clouds, The sky is halved, I'll give you the sun. I will... I will... Protect myself with glasses This is your rain- This is your -bow, It is your storm, They are your colors. This is yours, mine, This is your simplicity, It is my fantasy, It is your only. It is my game, That fixed the clouds, The sky is halved, I'll give you the sun. I will... I will... Protect myself with glasses. |
t.A.T.u. – Нас Не Догонят Lyrics | 15 years ago |
Just say, It's only the two of us. Only lights, Of an air field. We'll escape, They won't catch us. Further from them, Farther from home. A night-conductor, Will hide our shadows. Behind a cloud. Behind the clouds. They won't find us, They won't change us. Their arms can't reach, The stars! The sky will drop, night onto our palms... They won't catch us! They won't catch us! They sky will drop, Night onto our palms... They won't catch us! They won't catch us! They won't catch us! We'll escape, And everything will be easy. Night will drop down, The sky will drop down. The crossroads are empty. And emptiness... Won't Catch us. Don't speak, it's not clear to them. Only without them, Just past them. Anyway is better, than turning back. Just without them... Only without them! The sky will drop, night onto our palms... They won't catch us! They won't catch us! They sky will drop, Night onto our palms... They won't catch us! They won't catch us! They won't catch us! |
