Tom Vek – I Ain't Saying My Goodbyes Lyrics | 16 years ago |
Maybe he's saying "You haven't seen the last of me!" It has taken him quite a long time to bring out a new album, maybe this song is confirmation he isn't going away so quickly. |
Idlewild – These Wooden Ideas Lyrics | 17 years ago |
I think people are complicating the song. I feel that its merely about how soulless modern society has become, yet how no one will accept to place life back into in the name of progress. It could also be about coping with extreme sadness. Perhaps the song's protagonist has lost his way with extreme emotion, and feels perhaps a postmodern way of thinking would be able to appease his emotions. It can obviously be seen that he is not fully convinved of this new way of thinking, and is still suffering from alot of inner conflict because of it. |
Shakespear's Sister – Stay Lyrics | 17 years ago |
I agree that this is perhaps about obsessive love, its melody drives the song into its beautiful, chaotic frenzy of a conclusion...much like love does. That Princess chick needs to seriously sort her life out. I mean, whether its spelt wrong or not, no one meant to destroy her life by it. I think she needs to learn that the world MIGHT not revolve around her... |
Avril Lavigne – I'm With You Lyrics | 17 years ago |
It echoes with the melancholy of a Sylvia Plath poem, but addresses a youth no longer so poetic yet still filled with the troubled soul that Plath embodied... |
Kate Bush – This Woman's Work Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I agree that its about kids and parents, and if they have provided enough for them, hence its use on the new NSPCC advert. |
Sigur Rós – Hoppípolla Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I agree, this song is one positive song |
The Smiths – Bigmouth Strikes Again Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Has no one considered that perhaps the BigMouth is Margaret Thatcher? Morrisey's main enemy? well, as well as the Royals. |
Idlewild – Mistake Pageant Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This song is about how the band are surprised by their new-found popularity, and their reluctance to have it flung onto them. |
Charlotte Martin – Beautiful Life Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Charlotte has one of those voices you can fall in love with. Its so delicate, and this song makes it all the more pure. |
Feist – Mushaboom Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I rewrote this song in my poetry anthology for for my GCSE, as a method of cut-up poetry. Helping babies, coats out but the unpacking kids Of their setting, buttercups wait and bags been, Lilacs haven't, up the planting and born. But second, without a meantime, in the dreams, Until my pay; years will be living up hard With it may match my floor: Day-yard got it. Watching old knee dirt as the road Fire deep we snow old grow. The future's out, we'll collect how I make one guess; That's done. And the stick moments one a man to a house And, from it got by, I rented a home. Acres in the sight of woods, tip a neighbour’s map, How to talk and light on the cap, tucked out, On my many -little much barely: The Road How. Watching old knee dirt as the road, Fire deep we snow old grow. Watching well I'm fire rose, Rambling as we sold the grow. it was great source material. |
The Sundays – Here's Where The Story Ends Lyrics | 18 years ago |
This song is from around 1993. The Sundays have been on hiatus since the early 90's. So it couldn't be about the tsunami. Unless Harriet has psychic powers. Scary! This is a great song. So addictive; melancholic in a llight and bouncy way. |
The Sugarcubes – Birthday Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I agree. Bjork isn't the sort of artist that would be so dark as to include pedophilia into one of her earliest songs, her first biggest hit in the UK and US. I think people should try to regress themselves whilst listening to this song, and attempt to understand the angle these great Icelanders were coming from. |
The Sugarcubes – Birthday Lyrics | 18 years ago |
I agree that this is a coming of age story, resulting in the woman ending up as a spinster. The song goes backwards through time. It's Lewis-esque in it style. Bkork has drawn heavy influence from the youth and naivety of Alice in Wonderland, and I feel that this song possesses those qualities. |
The Jesus and Mary Chain – Just Like Honey Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Lost in Translation is a very meaningful movie. This song compliments it very well. Its monotonous drone creates an ethereal effect that isn't common in songs. A very good piece. |
Tears for Fears – Mad World Lyrics | 18 years ago |
why on forums must everyine argue rather than accept other peoples' opinions? Surely people wouldn't act like this in the real world. Donnie Darko was an excellent film, and covered some major thought-provoking issues, as well as brought some insightful knowledge to the audience, such as the meaning of Graeme Green's 'The Destructors' and the interesting fact about CellarDoor. I also understand why people would not like the movie, as at first I was not impressed by its seemingly lack-of-plot and its confusing backstory, but after several viewings I came around. This song is very good, and works well for the movie. It is ultimately the lyrics that carry this song, for without such insight, a song like this would never become a number 1 at Christmas. |
Echo and the Bunnymen – The Killing Moon Lyrics | 18 years ago |
Predestination is actually a very hypocritical idea in relation to the Church. I've been writing a thesis on predestination in relation to free will, theology and the chaos theory. It was all inspired by a combination of this song and the Donnie Darko movie. If God gave us free will, how surely can everything be predestined? That's the question I asked. Any comments would be appreciated. |
