| Sarah Harmer – Basement Apartment Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
|
Or maybe, not only a song about the physical setting, but about the one she's living with? Wanting to leave, watching the things that go unsaid, etc? The restrictive, constricting feeling of being with someone that you aren't sure if you should be around anymore? |

i would totally agree with mushaboom20. SO much better. This song seems like it's speaking just to me sometimes, to show my heart instead of hiding it away.
it's such a hard thing to do... |

| Regina Spektor – On the Radio Lyrics

to me, this song is about life and love, yes-- but also just a perspective on life in general. I interpret "this is how it works" meaning "this is how life works"... but whatever the correct interpretation is, regina spektor is awesome. |

| Ani DiFranco – Two Little Girls Lyrics

i love your line, citygirl: "every song Ani writes is a little truth clipping from her life." it's so true, and remarkable how her little truth clippings so closely resemble truth clippings from other lives... i love how her songs speak to so many people in so many ways.
i love it when she sings "this little girl cries wee wee
all the way home..." and it sounds like a subway/ train horn. awesome touch. i always thought that it was "this little girl cried oui oui all the way home", as in screaming "YES!" all the way home?
No matter. awesome song. ani is a goddess. |

i love this song.
and i would LOVE to hear an acoustic version of this song.
this is a good driving song, in my opinions. especially when you're out on the prairie with nothing in front of you but highway, wheat fields, and sky. |

| Prozzak – Monday Morning Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
this song is kinda self-explanatory... one song you DON'T want to play after someone you know dies. You'll start to laugh, but the laughter will quickly turn to unstoppable tears.
Why are monday mornings so hard to face when someone close to you has died? |

| Remy Zero – Shattered Lyrics

i would interpret this song as about the person who breaks you, your walls, your defenses, your perceptions as you start a relationship with them... but... i kinda don't like to interpret the song, because it's so gorgeous. Taking it from the poetic to the prose degrades it somehow. |

| Jann Arden – Good Mother Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
this, to me anyways, is about life. it's looking forward to the future, taking stock of the things you have now, while remembering what brought you to this point in your life.
on a more personal note, i love the line "I’ve got a good father/ And his strength is what makes me cry". That sounds like my dad-- strong, which brings our family security, but also pain when he's so strong we can't see him bend or break or feel pain. It truly does makes me cry when he is so strong that he refuses to be weak. |

"This thing beneath my ribs sill beat me to the ground"
LOVE that line!
This song is about loving who you shouldn't and what happens to your heart when you do. |
