| Ladytron – Cracked LCD Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| a lot of songs on light + magic are about illusions, youth and technology. I think this song relates to seventeen in a way, and Blue Jeans. | |
| Ladytron – Seventeen Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
it's not necessarily about modeling per se, but youth-obsession in general, & how society leeches on youth. Media, older men (ephebophiles?), fashion, they take what they can from a girl or boy's most magical age (under 21), when she still has that sparkle in her eyes... then they throw her away or ignore her. The polaroid doesn't have to relate to modeling, the polaroid represents stolen youth, eg. the older man captures a girl in the perfect age (17), sucks her of her youth then lets her go. I suppose you could also relate it to underage porn, as even if a victim of such child abuse has escaped this sleazy lifestyle, her pictures will never be erased from the internet/pervert's collections... I could go on, but this is what a lot of pedos do, they keep a kid's picture as a twisted souvenir. |

| The Knife – Like a Pen Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| the masturbation idea might seem silly, but most of the album Silent Shout is about human contact or lack of (Marble House, Na Na Na etc.) + this might be about a girl who's alone + horny lol so she resorts to "picking on herself" until she climaxes. Also there seems to be a link between the "lense" in the 1st verse + "when the light finds my eye". | |
| The Knife – Like a Pen Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think it's about masturbation, perhaps with a pen-shaped sex toy? lol | |
| The Knife – Bird Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| it's about a girl who finds herself in a controlling relationship; she wanted to do anything she could to please the man, + wanted to feel safe + loved. But in the end the man wants her to be a "housewife" type, as portrayed in One Hit One Kiss, with no urges + no freedom. | |
| Ladytron – Deep Blue Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think "Deep Blue" is a troubled boy or an outcast, (or girl) perhaps with a dark history, + Mira is trying to add light to his life. I think she's fascinated by him + wants to run away with him. She wants to give him all that she has, but because he's not used to being loved, it scares him. | |
| t.A.T.u. – Время Луны Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
the lyrics remind me of their older song Stars/Skazhi Zachem Start over Don't look in the mirror Don't brake the car Contacts and traps are burning We don't need to extinguish them Fire and wind It's too late For us to stop Start all over We're taking off And no one will make us land Time of the Moon Clouds won't melt The fear of heights We won't change Start all over The engines roar Contacts burn Fire and wind Don't land Don't brake We don't give a damn They're not gonna get us Time of the Moon Clouds won't melt The fear of heights We won't change Start all over We're moving forward And everything's in the past We don't give a damn Engines roar We are flying And everyone is standing still They're not gonna get us Start all over Nobody can stop us They're weak Start all over After all, you know It's always easy to begin |

| Ladytron – Black Cat Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| lovely song, most of their songs seem to contrast banal city life with fairytale-like bulgarian countryside, eg. discotraxx, commodore rock. They hide a message beneath their icy exterior | |
| The Knife – Neverland Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i thought it was perhaps about a girl who's been tricked into prostitution by a pimp, hence why she doesn't know where she's being driven to and why she asks "is this my home?". And the monkey could be the fake new life/job that she's been promised by the fancy man. There's also a bit of a circus-y element to it, with the dancing and the monkey. | |
| Ladytron – Light and Magic Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i think the album is about technology, consumerism + materialism, how city life is consumed by it. Most of the titles reflect that: 17, blue jeans, black plastic, cracked lcd. Light + Magic reflects how we rely on technology at the flick of a switch, as if it's magic. Ladytron also seem to add a little nature for ironic effect, eg. the sound of ringtones stranded in the sand. | |
| Mindless Self Indulgence – What Do They Know? Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| i think it's bout a guy who's had a homosexual experience, probably been persecuted for it, yet he's still sayin "I'd do it again". It's basically a fuck you to all the ppl who've mistreated him. | |
| t.A.T.u. – Zachem Ya Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Tell me, why do I await a call Why silent clouds Float to me from afar and melt Why love touched us Why I cry the first time Why I want you now, I don't know I'm a star, you're a star We were ordered to burn out Someone snitched on us and handed over The address of our meetings Eyes to the ceiling And nobody will find out Voices crack And the ice will break And no one's clueless And my bed is my grave And it's time to switch off And they're on our tail Smile, unwind, Cover the mirrors Tear them apart and say, I'm dead, I'm dead Lock up and lie there Become nobody And your hand isn't shaking My hand is fine You can avenge Easy as 2 x 2 Jumped the taxi, you suck But to forgive, never Never ever ask Ok, ok I thought of revenge Sugar coat everything I'll multiply it by 6 Don't call, don't call I'm tired, I'm tired I don't want you I'm fucking fed up with you Never ever Nothing will ever start Never anyone, You die in silence You don't search, you don't love You don't regret and don't sleep You never ever Let anyone be Not together. And we will kill Watered-down dreams Not yours, not mine Wires, wires Heroin. No pulse I want nothing to do with you The phone is switched off..... |

| t.A.T.u. – Ne Ver', Ne Bojsya Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Different nights, different people He wants - he doesn't want, he loves, he doesn't love Someone is left behind, someone slips away Someone Someone twists wires into a terminal Someone thinks of new topics Someone is pretentious, someone is a maniac Someone is like you, someone is like me... Don't light up and be put out Don't believe, don't worry, don't ask And calm down, and calm down Somewhere there's a lot of something small But the routes will be closed in Someone risks, and someone can't Someone understands, but doesn't help Someone leaves, someone returns Someone finds a new sun Someone is in a bush, someone is in me Someone is like you, someone is like me Don't light up and be put out Don't believe, don't worry, don't forgive And calm down, and calm down |

| t.A.T.u. – Doschitai Do Sta (Count Up To 100) Lyrics | 16 years ago |

He said: "I'm tired". And he didn't come back You count to 100 You dream to fall asleep You count to 100 100 random names And you need to sleep and stop thinking about him Your boat is empty In strange shores You count to 100 100 This is a simple theme You do know how to be You simply need to count to 100 and forget FOREVER Count, count, count to 100 100 sleepless nights In the labyrinth of love 100 random keys But null in result 100 friends, 100 enemies 100 melting ice cubes Forget about him, 100, 101 Forget about him, forget forever |

| t.A.T.u. – 30 минут Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Bawl, run away Or a door in a lock Be silent, and lie there Stare at the ceiling And to dream not like everyone To kiss the skies The ceiling is like a carousel 30 minutes, 30 minutes 30 minutes, derailed trains 30 minutes, not your track 30 minutes, 30 minutes isn't a question Or an answer, 30 minutes, 30 minutes 30 minutes without you, 30 minutes 30 minutes, he and i, 30 minutes Each one, each one 30 minutes concerning you 30 minutes I lost myself not like everyone Like in a dream I'm not me It's not my carousel And the dream isn't mine Either smoke or sadness Or rain to the eyes I'll return, I'll return |

| t.A.T.u. – Я Твоя Не Первая Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Hello... Hello... Do you see the wind? What about it? Look out the window... What about it? Well it was sunny yesterday What about it? Why do you say the same thing all the time? I'm an answering machine Take it and calm down A golden silence Radio insomnia A station parting Who gives who Falling coins? Who leaves who With nerves and tablets? Windows at night Cries, breaks It doesn't count, it doesn't count Right or wrong Quiet, sad I'm not your first You are by chance Show, show, show, show Show, show me love Show, show, show, show Why I'm with you It seems, it appears It's easier not to meet Which of us refuses To take it and calm down? Girls are like girls But then they are sleepwalkers Numbers and riflewomen Chocolate bars, wrappers Hides, bursts into tears Speaks, fears It doesn't count, it doesn't count Right or wrong Quiet, sad I'm not your first You are by chance |

| t.A.T.u. – Югославия Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
In the evening, the Danube flows White, white, white And my memory recalls a melody that pleads From the past, from the past, from the past But the flocks of birds bid farewell Our songs are mere words You jump into the fire, Yugoslavia! Without me! Without me! Without me! Over the night beneath a hail of lead Over the fact that I'm not nearby Forgive me, my sister - Yugoslavia! Over the death beneath spring rain Over the fact that I never became a saviour! Forgive me, my sister - Yugoslavia! As with a confused black-eyed girl You stand on another shore But to reach this shore I'm unable, I'm unable, I'm unable In the evening, the Danube flows White light, white light, white light And my memory recalls a melody that pleads From the past, from the past, from the past |

|
You watch fondly Waiting for his attention. The feelings are the same But I don't understand. How's it possible to Live, love, secretly? It's very difficult to Hide your habits Very hard to Hide my suffering Very, very, very, very Indecent desire Gay boy, gay boy Be cheekier with me Don't blush with shame Gay boy, gay boy Don't care what your friends say Gay boy, gay boy Be fucking delighted with me Gay boy - gay Choked by the tears These thoughts disturb my life It's hard to listen to this No, I don't understand Yes, I know all your secrets How can you stand hard objects? I still know that this is hopeless But I'm dreaming of you and I'm melting, melting-melting-melting ... |
