| oh yeah, forgot to mention that Kele said this was the "break up album" because he went through rough ending to a relationship during this album... so i have been looking at a lot of the songs on this album from that perspective. | |

sounds to me like the guilt that comes from cheating on someone. if you have ever done so, it eats aways at you but before the feeling catches you feel great and there are no problems "feeling arrogant". it can destroy the relationships (obviously) and even friendships, because they lose hope in you or they take the side of the one cheated on. and typically cheating happens subtly at first "just like a kiss" foreshadowing how this horrible guilt that is eating at you came just delicately with that first kiss. and you never think you will get caught or feel guilty when you do it "catch fire" part of song. |

| Saul Williams – List of Demands (Reparations) Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
robert: why not stop bitching from your parents' basement and go do something about what bothers you? You sound like the same little whining punks who go to schools like Cal-Berkley... you know the ones, the 'hippies' that still mooch off rich mom and dad. As much as you complain about 'corrupt corporations' do you not see your own ignorance in the fact that you rely on those corporations just as much as anyone else? Before you respond, look at the room around you and see the proof. Unless you drink pond water, grow your own food, and have built your own computer with parts not manufactured by anyone else but yourself so you can make posts on this site... then shut up. Oh, and who knows what that money is going to that Saul receives from Nike (if any... the song may have been turned over to Nike by his label w/o his control). He could if he so chooses use that money to benefit a nation of people or the poverty stricken within this country. Until you actually speak to the man, then you have no idea what the story or his motives are behind his actions. Oh... and back to the point of the forum... good song with an excellent beat. The first verse speaks of social change or something similar, while the second verse changes to being about a girl... although it could just be metaphorical. Anyway like the song. |

| Ben Folds – Rockin' The Suburbs Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I saw Ben Folds in concert a few years ago. This is his explanation for the song, straight from his mouth. He wrote it after reading an article that interviewed one of the guys from Korn. To summarize the guy said he ates p***y piano rock like Ben Folds. So, Ben retaliated with a song that mocked Korn's style of angry, white, middle class, nu-metal. In other words: Korn sucks, their music sucks, and their fake angry attitudes suck. ...For those of you who say you don't like the song b/c it isn't in his normal style... that is the point... it's called satire. |
