John Frusciante – Leap Your Bar Lyrics 18 years ago
I agree with what you said about how it is about people being cruel to you, but i think the message is that you have to overcome it. In this song it seems like John is playing a pessimist but he realizes it and he is jsut telling us that we all have potential and should not be bogged down by the opinions of the world like he is.

John Frusciante – Ricky Lyrics 18 years ago
"and you can function as someone besides who you are"
I think that it means that you can function but you can't live. Computers and other machines function but without any sort of feelings. If you are pretending to be someone you aren't you can function but you are robbing yourself of all emotions and that is a scary thought.

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Savior Lyrics 19 years ago
I see this song in 2 parts. The first part is the part of a man and the higher pitched parts are from a god figure. Notice how the parts from the man are kinda harsh and sorrowful sounding. The god parts are peaceful and smooth.

"Dusting off your savior
You were always my favorite
Always my man-All in a hand
To celebrate you is greater
Now that I can-always my man
Now you see what I came for
No one here is to blame for
Misunderstand- All in a hand
Just like you cause you make me
All that I am-All in a hand"

So this part is about how a guy who has sinned and led a bad life in the eyes of his choice of god realizing that he need his god. He thinks he can just pull the god off a shelf dust it off and get salvation from him. He tries to reassure his god by telling him that "you were always my man" and that he wants to celbrate the god. He is accepting his religion after rejecting it for a long time.

"A butterfly that flaps its wings
Affecting almost everything"

This part is from the perspective of the god. He is saying everything you do has an affect on everything and everyone around you and to watch yor thoughts and actions.

"The more i hear the orchestra the more i have something to bring"

The more you praise me the more ill bless you

"And now I see you in a beautiful
And different light
He’s just a man and any damaging done
Will be all right
Call out my name
Call and I came"

I used to think you were a lost soul but know i see you in a beautiful and different light. Your sins are forgiven. If you call me ill come to you.


and the rest of the song is pretty much the same as this...sorry this is so long

Keane – Somewhere Only We Know Lyrics 19 years ago
I dunno it sounds for some reason like this guy is a nice guy. you know a guy that girls complain to about thier guy troubles. he likes the girl but she just uses him as an earpiece to complain about other guys and all he wants to do it talk about it because he thinks it will make her like him

Franz Ferdinand – The Dark of the Matinee Lyrics 19 years ago
The singer is very self concious and insecure
he tells the girl about everyhting he hates because he is insecure
he always looks down and she tells him to look her in the eye
he doesnt feel comfortable at school so he goes to the dark matinee where he feels more confident and secure he feels better because its dark i think he might be worried about his looks
the girl changes him and he becomes famous and he isnt insecure and shy (that part about bbc2)

the girl is very upbeat and it helps him overcome his problems

Nirvana – About a Girl Lyrics 20 years ago
until i read the other comments on this song i thought it was about a girl that kurt liked but who didnt care about him

"ill take advantage while you hang me out to dry"
(she would jsut leave him hanging)
"I'm standing in your line,
I do hope you have the time.
(he is waitng for her to talk to him with a bunch of other guys that like him...but she doesnt have time for them)
