Led Zeppelin – Going to California Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
First and foremost, this song is about Joni Mitchell. Both Page and Plant were infatuated with her.
I think the beginning is about being with a woman that treated the guy badly, and he is leaving to california to find another woman.
The jet plane part could be a reference to how all airplanes are the same and not special-maybe an analogy to how society is becoming conformist?
The mountains and canyons part could be about Californian earthquakes and how sunny it is in California.
He is trying to find a woman (queen) without a man (king) by her side and she also plays the guitar (as does Joni Mitchell).
The wrath of the gods bit could mean that he has gotten in trouble with the law and he can't get away. The white mare part could mean that though he is going through trouble, but he is still thinking about his woman.
Finally, the mountain of dreams part could be about how he has finally found the woman of his dreams and he is telling himself that it really isn't as hard as it seems to ask her to marry him or whatever.
I heard this song once when the girl I liked was in California and it reminded me of her very much.
That's just my take on it. |

U2 – Where The Streets Have No Name Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
"where the streets have no name", at least as I can see it, means a place untouched by humans, a pure wilderness without pollution, anger or war-"poison rain". about the "i go there with you" means that he would go there with someone he loves. |

i think this song is about the possibilities in a "big country"-the chance to follow your dreams, and the "lover's voice" part could be a dream about a woman. |
