| Animal Collective – Summertime Clothes Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
he never says "love" in this song or anything along those lines, but no song has ever made me feel like the singer loves who he's talking about as much as this one does. i loooove this song so much! everytime he says "i want to walk around with you" i get chills. it's so sweet! |

| Department of Eagles – No One Does It Like You Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
i think this video clears up the lyrics a little bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26MRf7MrJNI it's definitely "don't have to HAVE an alibi" and "i cursed these LEGS i walked on," which makes more sense because you don't walk on a lane, you walk in one. also, the line before is "i laughed so hard i fell down," so it makes sense that then he says "i cursed these legs i walked on," because your legs are what keeps you up; they keep you from falling down. as to the actual meaning of this son...i dunno. shrugzamillion. |

I can't really tell if you're joking about the "I'm a whore" thing, so just in case... I emailed the band for the lyrics to this song, and what I posted is what they sent me. |

| Vampire Weekend – Mansard Roof Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Whenever he says "The ground beneath my feet, we are garbage and concrete," I can't help but think of "Concrete and Clay" by Unit 4+2 when they say "The sidewalks and the street, the concrete and the clay beneath my feet begin to crumble." ...but I have a feeling there isn't any sort of connection between the two |

| Mirah – Telephone Wires Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
"I'm wasting all my time 'cause you just tease me Please leave me alone" It's scary how much I can relate to that right now. This song is so good. |

| Beirut – After the Curtain Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I kind of see what sensleman is talking about...and coincidentally, Scenic World and After the Curtain are my two favorite Beirut songs. :) Anddd completely disregarding the lyrics to this song: When I used to listen to this, I just thought "what a sad song." But now a days, I hear hope in Zach's voice, espcially in his moaning noises (I dunno what to call those) in the middle/towards the end. And now when I listen to this, it kind of makes me feel like everything's going to be ok. If that makes any sense at all and doesn't sound completely cliche... |

...I don't even remember hearing this in Stranger Than Fiction. But anyways, this has always been one of my favorite Spoon songs. Nice and simple. And the "oooohs" and "aaaaaahs" in the background are oh. so. wonderful. |

| of Montreal – Jennifer Louise Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I can't believe this doesn't have more comments! I love this song. Pretty self-explanatory like g0wrgwfk0w said. I especially love the way he repeats "mama," "wondering," and "think." So nice. | |
| Ingrid Michaelson – The Way I Am Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Yeah, laurentertaining, the first time I heard this, I thought it was Khaela Maricich for a couple seconds. Their voices are similar. I love this song! I hope one day I'll feel this way about someone and the other way around. la la la. |

| Beirut – The Penalty Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I'm not entirely sure what this song means. I've only read through the lyrics once...I'll probably have to read them about a thousand more times before I have any sort of idea. BUT! Let me just say that this is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. I absolutely love it. Beirut is amazing. |

|
Wow, I was just listening to this and thought "this is so Feist-y," so I came here to post that, only to find I'm not the only one who noticed. I'm kind of relieved that I'm not the only one who thinks so, hahah. Sooo good. |
