| R.E.M. – Supernatural Superserious Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i'm very impressed with this song. It manages to sound like vintage R.E.M. while also sounding fresh and new rather than just a stale retread of past glory days. I wish more bands could do this. After "Around the Sun," this is very refreshing to hear. While I love R.E.M., I was wondering if they still had it in them to do such spirited music. So far, I'm wrong. ____________ http://jakebert.wordpress.com/ |

| The Mountain Goats – Heretic Pride Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Easily my favorite song on the new album. And Soybomb, I disagree. "New Monster Avenue" was about John, while this song is about a fictional character. Of course you can bring in your own meaning, but I figured I'd mention that. ________________________ http://jakebert.wordpress.com |

| KoЯn – Ya'll Want A Single Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| This song and the video are incredibly hypocritical. Korn aren't some edgy band that does experimental stuff that mainstream music fans can't handle. They follow the pop formula just as much as everything they criticize, they constantly do glamorous big videos, and all of that stuff. There's nothing wrong with doing that if the band can do it while staying good and keeping integrity, but the simple fact is that Korn lost all of their integrity with this one song because all it does is condemn things that they themselves do on a constant basis. | |
| The Goo Goo Dolls – Feel The Silence Lyrics | 18 years ago |

This song is one of the only songs off of the new album that I like. The chorus is really atmospheric and well done, but lyrically it's one of the weakest things Johnny has ever written. ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

I know it's been said a million times, but what the fuck is with all of the Sid Vicious worship? The guy was an untalented drug addict. If anything, you "punk rawkers" should want to remove yourself from an image like that, not identify with it. -------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| Angels and Airwaves – Good Day Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"for you who hate Good Day because the lyrics are too "simple" - Yeats, an irish poet uses simple words to imply that something is so great that he can't even think of any better words to describe it" Tom DeLonge is not capable of that kind of depth, sorry. ------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| Angels and Airwaves – The War Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
In this song, Tom uses a physical war as a metaphor for a personal war, which I have to say is genius, because I've never ever heard of anyone doing something like that. That was sarcasm. Tom Delonge is a stupid egotistical retard who now thinks he's a legitimate artist. ------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| GG Allin – I Kill Everything I Fuck Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Yes, I'm sure he was smart, but a lot of smart people were insane. Charlie Manson was a genius, but he still believed he could start a race war by killing white people and setting it up to look like a hate crime. GG Allin had serious, serious mental problems and if you know anything about his family background and anything about psychology, you'd realize that. No one with a family background like his and then acted like he did as an adult could be mentally stable. You can tell yourself he was "real" all you want, but he was just fucked up and that's it. ----------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

I think you missed fuckyouall's point. I think what he ment was that all of the"TRU PUNX!!!" kids don't really get that all they're doing is buying into the same kind of elitism that they preach against.

| NOFX – Leaving Jesusland (7" Version) Lyrics | 18 years ago |

ollie 101, you're a fucking idiot and you're the one who's brainwashed. I know a lot of Christians who are extremely nice, intelligent, respectful people, and if anything, you're the asshole, and you should be banned. As for the song, I think it's one of the most hypocritical songs I've ever heard. Here's NOFX preaching against closed mindedness, yet here they are being just as closed minded. I love NOFX, but Fat Mike has really been taking some stupid pills lately. --------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

I've always kind of seen this song as the actual ending to "Zen Arcade", where the character wakes up and there's a new day. The rest of the album has nothing to do with Zen Arcade, but I've just always seen it that way. ----------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| The Black Eyed Peas – My Humps Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
1.) MCR suck, and are a horrible affront to rock music. As goes Hawthorne Heights, so your opinion on music really shouldn't be valued. 2.) It's not music that makes girls sluts, it's parents that don't teach their kids the different between entertainment and reality. Most popular music is just entertainment, and sex sells big in that field. But, a kid can listen to all of that and still wind up a good, non-slut because their parents teach them decent values when they're younger. I mean, I love the Beatles, buy you don't see me doing LSD or anything because I know it's wrong and dangerous. 3.) And yes, whining about this on here IS pointless because most of the BEP fans on here arn't going to be swayed by what you guys have to say the same way you guys probably won't be swayed by what I'm saying. The only difference is that at least I admit that what I'm saying is probably a waste of time. kthnxdrivethur. ------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| The Black Eyed Peas – My Humps Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
It's called a joke, windbag. Don't read too much into it. And objectification of woman is nothing new in pop/rap...actually, every genre of music known to man. Arguing about it is pointless because being sluts or whatever is the cool thing to do nowadays, and nothing's going to change that. Of course popular culture tells people looks are everything because, believe it or not, looks do have a lot to do with how things work in society, as sad as that is, and the music is going to reflect that. That's what top 40 radio and MTV usually is, whether it's rock, pop, rap, or whatever: stupid music without any good message or themes. Get over it and stop whining. ---------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

MTV sucks, get the fuck over it. Shut up with the constant whining about it, and grow up. No one cares if you don't like Avril or NFG, no one cares if you think that rap sucks, and no one cares if you hate the Real World. None of you are saying anything new or orignal, and sometimes I wonder if you're only saying it because you think it's cool.

"going to prison for 3 years for breaking some bitch's arm is going beyond be shock rock or anything like that. thats real hatred. thats real. GGs real and anyone who says different is a queer." No, that's not "real" hate, that's just someone with a fucking anger problem. There's a difference between singing aggressive songs and letting your anger out on stage through your music and the shit that GG did. GG had a severe mental disorder, and anyone with any bit of intelligence who knows anything about him can see that clearly. --------------------------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| R.E.M. – Electron Blue Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
This song is definitly about drugs, like most people pointed out. "Your high is timed, you found the climb It's hard to focus on more than what's in front of you" This line describes the feeling of being high, where all you can do is focus on one thing because of the daze you're in. "Your buzz beginning to wane" Coming down, cooooooming down. I'm not sure what exactly Stipe is trying to say with these lyrics, but they could be describing someone who's addicted to this drug, and only it can make them feel happy, and that drug use is the "adventure" that he talks about in the chorus. ----------------------------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| Green Day – Boulevard of Broken Dreams Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
As much as I love Green Day, I'm really starting to get sick of this song because it's representive of Green Day's new, almost sellout-like mindframe. They've gotten to the point where they're selling every bit of merchandise they can get their name on. And frankly, it pissed me off that they once sang a song like "Fashion Victim" but now when you look at them, they're nothing but an image. The whole eyeliner/dark clothing thing seems like nothing but an attempt for them to fit in with the rest of the crowd. This especially upsets me because Insomniac, Nimrod, and Warning are 3 of my all-time favorite albums and it seems that the band that created them has turned into a shell of it's former self. -------------------------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| Nirvana – Rape Me Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
No he didn't. Kurt called MTV and told them to play their videos more. Kurt made up stories in interviews to sound more mysterious. He constantly tried to sound deeper than he actually was. He admitted early on that his early songs ment nothing, but as soon as people started labelling him a genius, the songs suddenly had meanings to them, and were suddenly songs about how he expressed his angst and all those fun cliches. I used to be a die-hard Nirvana fan, and I read tons of interviews with Kurt and books about him, and every time they asked him about this song the meaning was different. I don't know, but to me that says that he was just bullshitting people. -------------------------------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

This is such an amazing song. This is one of the songs that you don't truely understand until you see the band perform it live, because then you'll hear the truely amazing emotional in Stipe's voice every time he sings it. Beautiful. 'Tis a shame that one of R.E.M.'s best songs is hidden on their worst album. ------------------ http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |

| R.E.M. – Sad Professor Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
The thing I've noticed with Stipe's lyrics is that he likes to write stories with fictional characters to represent a certain emotion, in this case hopelessness, instead of just writing a biographical song about himself. I think that this is a lot more interesting than that, because the other has been done to death. I think that the last 3 albums have seen this a lot more than the older ones, but I'd say that he did it the most on Up. -------------------------------------------------- http://www.freewebs.com/thejakesite |
