| Alex Winston – Velvet Elvis Lyrics | 9 years ago |

I agree with sisterwifekiller. Masturbation. Her starry-eye is her vagina. Fingerpainting in circles on her vagina. Also I think the lyric is 'CAUGHT us in our special time' - not 'carve'. Clearly the girl is obsessed with elvis, and spends to much time masturbating. As a gay man, I don't I'm hearing things here - I think that was her intention. The song is cute, everyone masturbates. It's a cheeky little song about a near-obsessive crush. |

| Rufus Wainwright – Coeur de Parisienne Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
D'autre chose translates as 'anything else' - not 'something else' He is saying that people think he is romanticising the idea of love - overlooking the tough parts - but his heart dreams of anything but fairytales. He wants something real with all the gritty unpleasant moments. |

| Lauryn Hill – Selah Lyrics | 10 years ago |
| Selah is a pause between phrases from the Hebrew bible, or a musical interlude. It's a very difficult to describe word. No idea what that means in conjunction to this song | |

Personally, since Darren Hayes is gay, I think it's written to his lover - some of the lyrics are too intimate for friendship. Nonetheless, Darren has a talent and a gift for lyrics - he never uses filler and has the ability to make lyrics relatable to most people. You can see either a friendship or a relationship depending on what you a going the at the time. That's the beauty of art. I do feel the first verse is a little bitter though - 'pretty little head' sounds like a catty remark |

| You think the musical arrangements are similar? There are at a contrast, I'd say. | |
| Rihanna – Stupid in Love Lyrics | 12 years ago |

This song is really slow and gets on my nerves. I can't say I love it and I DO love pretty much all Rihanna song. This one just seems like a half realized idea. Slow songs are fine, but it just doesn't build anywhere either. It's kind of pacifying, like a lullaby with its 6/8 timing but the lyrics are pretty clearly state something different. Poorly written song and poorly produced aswell by people who usually produce and compose at a much stronger level. |

Actually, he's right and has given you all the information you need to verify it online. 4. "Stupid in Love" Shaffer Smith, Eriksen, Hermansen StarGate, Ne-Yo (co) 4:01 I don't see a composer credit there which involves the name 'Robyn Rihanna Fenty' |

Sorry, one other thing. Objectivity complex? How can someone have an objectivity complex about something that is subjective? |

While I disagree with On_and_on's original post, I am leaning towards thinking that MrFog is a troll by his very nature. I'm not taking any of this all too seriously, but I do think there is a lot of technical ability and a lot of thought gone into the James Blake's music. I created an account just so I could comment on this. If we learn from Oscar Wilde's preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray, the point of all art is to conceal the artist and reveal the observer. Therefore art is only there to reveal parts of those who consume to those individual parties. This in mind, if this music evokes a great deal of emotion with people, or some emotion with a great deal of people, then surely it is good art. In terms of technical ability, the harmonies in I Never Learned To Share blow my mind. I WISH I could harmonise like that, or even write beautiful and haunting harmonies like that. When it comes to the meaning of the song, I don't feel On_and_on quite has it. There's a heaviness to the music and the lyrics which speaks to me as implying that the guy's fighting a never-ending battle and he is finally unable to go on; he just doesn't have the will power in him anymore to continue and so he ultimately surrenders entirely. It has a certain sense of exhaustion to it. I think if we mix what on_and_on has said with what I've said, that would illustrate what I take away from the song. What I find interesting is the title. The Wilhelm Scream is a stock sound byte that was original used in the movie Distant Drums in 1951 and was then recycled over and over in action films whenever someone got shot with an arrow or gun. Perhaps he's used this as a sort of dark and obscure bit of humour, as if to say, 'Oh great, here we go again'. And perhaps to say that he is being shot, perhaps by cupid's arrow... yet again and is apprehensive, as everyone relationship before has ended so, so badly. |
