Little Comets – Joanna Lyrics
| 11 years ago

I thought the same after listening to it but after reading the whole thing I'm not sure. He states that "girls with three syllbale names" (Joanna) are "so often easy to shame" (maybe she's unfaithful) He "turns his keys in the lock" (letting himself in to her house as opposed to knocking) and "leaving her in shock" (walking in on her in bed with another). He says in the morning it still doesn't feel right and decides to leave, (his shoe laces tied). Then she pleads with him to take him back, (strangle me with your words) promises she'll do all of the these things but he only ever wanted one thing, (for her to be faithful). But he loves her so much he goes back with her (Joanna take me home)
When you hear the song and the chorus of "Joanna take me home" at the start it sounds like he's out on the pull and trying to get her back to hers. But reading it like this with the chorus at the end I think it takes on a new meaning. |

That's a sign of a quality album when that happens. The quicker songs on the album caught my attention first too but I love this one now, it's brilliant. |

That's right. The Reverend Jessie Jackson once said, "Gospol, rhythm & blue, jazz, all those are just labels, we know that music is music".
Still don't like My Chemical Romance. |

I think they are talking about music media judging and labeling their music, they have an original sound that doesn't fit neatly into the rock, pop, or urban" charts It reminds me of when Primal Scream sampled the Reverend Jessie Jackson on their Screamedlica album, "Gospel, Rhythm and Blues, Jazz, all those are just labels we know that music is music".
Some people like to operate inside the box, some people on the outside of the box. |

Twin Atlantic – Eight Days Lyrics

This band have some high quality sweeping riffs in a number of their songs including this one, its ties in nicely with the emotion of the lyrics. He sets out the situation in the first verse then tells the story of the relationship and its breakdown in the remaining.
Can't decide if these guys are emo? does emo still exist? especialy in Glasgow. |
