Alexis Jordan – Happiness Lyrics 12 years ago
"Through strength, I found love
In time I find myself in happiness with you"

Sounds like a hymn, they often talk about "love". Having faith requires "strength". Love should be easy.

Lily Allen – Fuck You Lyrics 13 years ago
Livity, that's just weak. Don't just say there's a paradox and give up. You're just playing childish games - "your words don't translate"

Start from a morality that all persons deserve respect and self-determination and go from there.

Lady GaGa – Born This Way Lyrics 13 years ago
@heartdal: everyone knows Paul of Tarsus was a nutter. Yet 2000 years later his (little-h) little end-of-the-world cult is still going strong. Give up!

Gerry Rafferty – Baker Street Lyrics 13 years ago
The song is what goes thru your head as you go to the London office to renegotiate the royalties for your songs; a very unpleasant chore when all you want to do is make good music.

INXS – Shine Lyrics 13 years ago
Best song on the album
================================
I think this is about the hedonistic lifestyle of a sexed-up rockstar.

Specifically, it's about yet another one night stand with a mostly antonymous girl and having a mixture of pleasure and emptiness.

"Gimme, gimme, reasons for the things I do"
"Silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you"

"Gimme reasons" = slight regrets/emptiness
"Silhouette" = sexy and anonymous; lit up by the morning sun.

But, at least he pays attention to her needs.

"Throw away my world"
"If I could see that pearl"

"pearl" = clitoris

U2 – Stand Up Comedy Lyrics 13 years ago
But you have to admit that God doesn't exist.

If I was at a speech by Paul I wouldn't believe his misogynist lies either.

Nine Inch Nails – Head Like a Hole Lyrics 13 years ago
No. It's about people who worship _God_

God = Money = God's Money

I am amazed at how seldom people on this site realize songs are anti-religion. Maybe they have a head like a hole...

Rob Zombie – Dragula Lyrics 14 years ago
It's all about the accepting inevitability of death and even admiring it. Who doesn't like a bit of diggin' hag-burning and drag racing?

1st verse
"Dead I am the one, Exterminating son
Slipping through the trees..."
He is the Trinity just after It temporarily killed 1/3 of Itself
Son/Father/Ghost
Being Dead/Killing His Son/Floating around

"...strangling the breeze"
or maybe it's just about zombies

2nd verse
Disease, suicide, decay, zombies

3rd verse
He is Death, the guy with the bony hands (or a zombie)

Gerry Rafferty – Baker Street Lyrics 14 years ago
"But the song works so well due to the contrast between the vigorous wailing of the saxophone and the plaintive laments of the lyrics. I surmise that the saxophone represents the profound cry to move onto greener pastures from the dejected situation described within the two verses."

Wouldn't it be great if he had used a violin instead of the saxophone? That way the verses could be directed at Sherlock Holmes walking towards Watson's house on Baker Street (The "lad" is Watson). But before he can get too depressed, Holmes suppresses it by playing a tune on his violin. (you would have to ignore the last 12 lines).

Kelly Rowland – Work (Put It In) Lyrics 16 years ago
"My love don't go nowhere [un]less I say"
It is a song to a guy who she is ready to have sex with. She is not in love with him yet. She is flirting outrageously.

I'm a slave to the sound of Microsoft (IMHO)

Kelly Clarkson – Hole Lyrics 16 years ago
I sometimes sing along to this song in a very heavy metal style. Seems more appropriate.

Billy Joel – Uptown Girl Lyrics 17 years ago
...Not that easy to sing, turtle.

Billy Joel left it as the last (or second last) song at a 2006 concert because it hurts his throat. Pity because it was the crowd favourite and would have helped earlier on.

INXS – Please (You Got That...) Lyrics 17 years ago
This is simply about drugs. The "she" in the final verse is a bit of misdirection - or perhaps specifies the drug as heroin.

This song has Ray Charles singing along with Michael Hutchence ,which does not gel with the drug theme in my mind.

Pink – Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) Lyrics 17 years ago
I agree that "Give me some room, there will be room enough for two" probably means:
'This relationship can work if you don't crowd me'

...but the way the music stops and the last word ("two") echoes suggests it might mean something more sinister:
'If you don't know when to be here thoe, I will soon find someone else'
