U2 – With or Without You Lyrics 8 years ago
The song is again realted with the religión, Christianism, which is the main religión, when not the only in Irelan d.

" See the thorn twist in your side"
Have anybody seen that picture? Christ already crucified, his head falling aside on his shoulder, with a Crown of thornes, one twisted in his side

"I wait for you"
Bono waits for Jesús to come, he will after precepts of this religión.

"Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait, without you
With or without you
With or without you"
This part deals with some dissapointment, the torture of waiting the end in a non Christian world


" You give it all but I want more"
Yes, Jesús gave his life for us, that's what preached, but he claims for more, maybe a better world
And I'm waiting for you

"With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you"
Self explanatory


"And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away"
Christ surrender to face his fate


"My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose"
She is the church, that has me handcuffed, with nothing to bet, nothing to risk, which, somehow, the autor feels is not in the spirit of Jesus

U2 – I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For Lyrics 8 years ago
Again, my lack of English, won't stop me to say what I think.
Remember U2 is an Irish group, a catholic land. The song is about, Christ and, on the other side, the Catholic CHURCH, that really doesn't represent Jesús

" But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for", means, in my opinión, that after all eforts, within that church the autor can't find the answers.

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in the fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a Stone"
The authors has been related to angels as well as tempted by the Devil


'I believe in the Kingdom come"
Isn't this the so announced return of Jesús to the world?

"You loosened the chains"
Christ did that for all of us, after the Godspell

"You carried the cross
Of my shame
Oh my shame"
The Cross? No comments
Of my shame? We all share the original sin, besides, the shame of having condemnd Jesús to cruxifiction.

" You know I believe it"
The autor beleaves in the Bble

"But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for"
But not so much in the Church that rules the religión, because there answers can't be found, satisfaction can't be achieved.

4 Non Blondes – What's Up? Lyrics 8 years ago
My mother tongue isn't English, so, I will understand if many among you doubt about my opinions.
I think we all agree the song deals with the depression and the lack of meaning of life, which she mentions literally..
I think there's more and I mean something personal from Linda Perry. She may have written this song, or at least collected the ideas to write it in the future, while she was in rehab in an "INSTITUTION".
Her claim for a "REVOLUTION", nobody panic here, has to do with a radical change needed in the society and mind of individuals, but she, by no means, is talking about the stalinist revolution or similar.
At a certain point she says she understood the world should be ruled by the "BROTHERHOOD OF MAN", but then she ads: "WHATEVER THAT MEANS", which shows she ain't too much convinced about that.
That's all I'm going to say. Arguments and counterarguments are of curse expected
