@[falcotron:32984] That is a wealth of information and something I wish we could see more of on this site. Thank you!
I read at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ai_No_Corrida (song):
"The title of the song was taken from the French-Japanese film In the Realm of the Senses, originally titled Ai no Korīda (愛のコリーダ), and means "Rope of love" in Japanese."
I've been meaning to watch In the Realm of the Senses for a few years now. Maybe someday I'll be back to say if the film clarified anything about this song. I'm not expecting it to help however. |

| Rush – Force Ten Lyrics

I think it's about all the different ways we live and express ourselves. There's no wrong way, so long as you are facing your fears and tackling them, and experiencing life.
Since there is no backing down from the inevitable storm ahead, deal with it as best as you can and come out stronger on the other side. |

| Duran Duran – The Seventh Stranger Lyrics

It's about the effects of sudden fortune and fame. About losing one's identity as a result of giving all of yourself to your audience, and losing people you love due to the demands of your career. The sactuary of anonymity is left behind after stepping into the spotlight. Life becomes a blur and time slips away, while every new place and new face starts to look the same as the last. Those that once mattered most in your life can't relate to you any more. You forget what life was like before. One day you wake up and wonder who you are; even your own reflection seems unrecognizable. But what exactly is the "seventh" stranger? I'm still not sure. |

"Everything That Rises Must Converge" is a short story by Flannery O'Connor about hypocrisy, morality and racism, and "ai no corrida" means "bullfight of love" in Japanese. But I'm still not sure what this song's about. |
