I always took it to be "or to take part in a pressured race" |

The ultimate headphone song. |

Tibetan Book of the Dead... The Body of Delight...The Brain is Dead... t.b.d. |
CHVRCHES – You Caught the Light Lyrics | 10 years ago |
Gorgeous song. Painful. It's a song of unrequited love, one of the oldest tales in the history of mankind. |
Sunny Day Real Estate – The Shark's Own Private Fuck Lyrics | 10 years ago |
He published a letter stating that he had become born again and could no longer continue working with the band, since they didn't want to write songs about Jesus. |
The White Stripes – Ball and Biscuit Lyrics | 10 years ago |
The Third Man http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041959/ |
Chelsea Wolfe – Fight Like Gods Lyrics | 10 years ago |
This song is incredible. Chelsea has the most amazing, powerful voice. The music and vocals create such tension and evoke strong feelings. It's just beautiful. |
Lorde – Royals Lyrics | 10 years ago |
Wow, you're a professional racist, aren't you? |
Lorde – Royals Lyrics | 10 years ago |
It's "Cristal"....you know, the expensive champagne that hip hop artists seem to think makes them classy? The same way they mistakenly think drinking cognac is some kind of major display of swag. Makes me laugh. |
Green Day – American Idiot Lyrics | 11 years ago |
Already been done. |
The Get Up Kids – Second Place Lyrics | 11 years ago |
How can there only be 6 comments on such an awesome song? Hands down one of GUK's best songs ever. So amazing live... |
The Wedding Present – Niagara Lyrics | 11 years ago |
It's about having The Night. The perfect night with a new love, where everything just clicks and it's like magic. Sparks fly, bells ring and the world doesn't matter, only you two. This song so perfectly captures that feeling. |
Toadies – Tyler Lyrics | 11 years ago |
Give me a fucking break. |
The Weeknd – The Morning Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Sheer brilliance. Chill out trip hop gets no better than this. |
Explosions in the Sky – Day 3 Lyrics | 13 years ago |
It's taken from video the band shot after their van broke down in Syracuse, NY during their 2000 tour. |
Jeff Buckley – Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen cover) Lyrics | 13 years ago |
Are you people on crack? Jeff Buckley quite simply OWNS this song. JB's voice carried a range of 7 octaves. SEVEN! Perhaps it is his death and it's manner that conveys the song is such a haunting way, but this version carries with it a ton of emotion that I don't think you can find in ANY other rendition of it. Stunning. |
Counting Crows – Sullivan Street Lyrics | 13 years ago |
It's amazing how so many years later this song can just absolutely shatter me. The emotional impact of it hasn't lessened any in almost 20 years. Sometimes it puts me in the exact same place as Zenmanship. |
Tonic – Soldier's Daughter Lyrics | 14 years ago |
Just a quick thought: "Did he poison your views With the water he was raised on" The father is an alcoholic. |
Animal Collective – My Girls Lyrics | 14 years ago |
A couple of lines I disagree with here: I think the first line is actually "There isn't much that I feel I need..." The last verse actually sounds like "I don't mean to seem like I care about material things, like my social stats. I just want four walls and adobe slats, for my girls". That makes more sense, since "stats" rhymes with "slats" AND it really doesn't sound like he's saying "status" anyway. Also, in the second verse, to me it sounds like he's saying "pressured race" instead of "precious race", but that whole part is pretty tough to make out. The last two lines in particular are kind of a muffled mess! Gorgeous, transcendent song, though...the whole album is, really. Just awesome. |
Finger Eleven – Paralyzer Lyrics | 15 years ago |
Trying to analyze this song makes about as much sense as writing a literary critique of the Sunday comics. Pointless. It's about what it's obviously about, folks. No more, no less. |
The Go! Team – The Power Is On Lyrics | 16 years ago |
I don't think these lyrics are correct at all. That's not what it sounds like to me. Where did they come from? |
The Appleseed Cast – E To W Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This is an insanely beautiful, eerie song and I can't believe more people haven't commented on it. |
Deftones – The Chauffeur (Duran Duran cover) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I love how everyone bags on the bands who did the original versions of the songs Deftones covered. Chino & the band obviously loved these songs, so why not give 'em some credit? shit... |
Deftones – Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want (The Smiths cover) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Fuck whoever said the Smiths version sucked. Chino obviously loved them, so step up and gain some knowledge, son. |
Deftones – 7 Words Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Its a song about racism and cops....obviously. |
Sense Field – No Longer Now Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This is such an incredible song...I can't believe no one has commented on it yet. |
The Decemberists – The Sporting Life Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This song totally reminds me of early Smiths material like "This Charming Man". |
The Decemberists – Eli, the Barrow Boy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
God, what a beautiful song...it literally gives me the chills. |
Okkervil River – Listening To Otis Redding At Home During Christmas Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I love the fact that they sing part of the Otis Redding song that the melody of this one strongly resembles. They must have realized it while writing or recording the song and decided to incorporate their inspiration into it. Very cool results. |
Fall Out Boy – Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Seems like a song about an over the hill band who keeps putting out crappy albums and touring even though they're way past their prime. This part really sums it up: "We're the kids you used to love But then we grew old We're the lifers here til the bitter end Condemned from the start Ashamed of the way The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts" |
Damien Jurado – Parking Lot Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Rosie Thomas sings on this song. Amazing. |
Weezer – My Name Is Jonas Lyrics | 18 years ago |
One of the greatest songs of all time. |
Weezer – Beverly Hills Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Why does this sound like Cake? Good lord, Weezer sure has gone in the crapper. :( |
Mogwai – Moses? I Amn't Lyrics | 18 years ago |
The song is, in fact, called "Moses? I Amn't" |
Fall Out Boy – Dance, Dance Lyrics | 18 years ago |
You know, I don't even care what it's about...the song fully kicks ass. |
Live – The Dolphin's Cry Lyrics | 18 years ago |
They used to be such a great band, but this song is just totally lame. |
Live – The Dam At Otter Creek Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Totally underrated song here... |
Matt Skiba – Next To You Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I'm fairly sure this is about heroin....sure sounds that way. |
R.E.M. – Let Me In Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. |
Fiona Apple – Not About Love Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Uh, it's "stupid ache"....stupid head? Give me a break... |
Clinic – Walking with Thee Lyrics | 18 years ago |
These lyrics aren't quite right and the 2nd verse is missing. |
British Sea Power – It Ended On An Oily Stage Lyrics | 18 years ago |
What an incredible song by an amazing band. Why aren't these guys a massive hit already?? |
The Fire Theft – Carry You Lyrics | 19 years ago |
I think this is a song about Dan deciding to leave the band. |
Pixies – Wave of Mutilation Lyrics | 19 years ago |
I like the UK Surf version of this song much better than the original...check it out |
Pixies – La La Love You Lyrics | 19 years ago |
Is he saying "chicken butt!" or "shake your butt!" at the beginning of the song? I've never been able to figure it out. |
Sex Pistols – Anarchy in the U.K. Lyrics | 19 years ago |
If you want to know the story of the Sex Pistols, check out the movie "The Filth and the Fury"...contains interviews with the Pistols and great live footage from back in their heyday. |
The Dead Milkmen – Stuart Lyrics | 19 years ago |
Quite possibly the greatest song ever written. |
Mike Doughty – Sunkeneyed Girl Lyrics | 19 years ago |
Amazing lyrics in this one, as usual... I think its about a crush on a girl. They're beautiful lyrics for a very simple concept. |
