The Temper Trap – Sweet Disposition Lyrics 11 years ago
So this is my view on the song, don't bitch if you disagree.

Its about people in their youth - obviously - and about all the things they go through, the fun, the first experiences, the first love and relationship. I reckon that its about a couple who are in love, even though they are young and reckless, and are trying to stay together and live through their youth together without... breaking up? That's where you get the whole "So stay there, cause I'll be coming over"

But that being said, they are living up their teenage years at the same time. So there will be moments of "our rights, our wrongs". Dunno... I've kinda lost what I was getting at.

Still, in the end this is what I pick up; Youth, first love, and living through their youth together, through all their rights and wrongs.

Green Day – Whatsername Lyrics 12 years ago
I remember seeing Green Day when I was about... 11? My cousin was obsessed with them, and I simply thought they were pretty cool. I preferred the opening band more then them actually - it was Jet and they were awesome. Now that I'm older, though not much, 15 to be exact I can't understand why I didn't enjoy the night more - even if my phone was smashed to bits during the concert - I guess I didn't fully understand the depth of their songs back then and I was an idiot. Haha. I wish I could see them all over again, it would be amazing. And hopefully, if they come back to Australia some time soon, I will.

Now, the meaning of this song... Obviously back in the day, he knew this girl and she meant a whole lot to him. Maybe he moved away, or maybe she did. Something happened and they were separated. He always thinks about her - old whatsername - but he can't find her. The thought of her is bringing him pain and so he burns all the 'photographs, tries to forget all the memories of her. In the end, he can't forget about the times they had together, and although he does want to see her again, it doesn't happen and so he gives up on her and just cherishes the memories they created however long ago.
