What a song - great how this one bypasses the censors…. Because we all know what “pie” is in this song. A classic |

| Todd Rundgren – Bang On The Drum All Day Lyrics | 19 days ago |
|
Still listening to this one (on a friday; nonetheless) in 2024. Definitely bang on the drum ALL day (don't wanna work!). Songmeaning is quite simple... F-U to the man and the system... BANG ON THE DRUM ALL DAY friends. |

@[CKF929:49363] Thought the same thing when I first heard the single digitally. Sounds even better on 7”; but truly does have a Use your Illusion I feel to it |

| Elvis Presley – HeartBreak Hotel Lyrics | 6 months ago |
|
Only 8 comments ?!? Here b/c I just came from the tour of RCA Studio B in Nashville. Scotty Moore’s guitar and Elvis’s vocals - man.. to have been in the sheer presence of this was amazing to me. A pioneer of the ages. There will never be another. |

| Dwight Yoakam – A Thousand Miles From Nowhere Lyrics | 6 months ago |
|
Brilliant tune, brilliant artist - agree with the previous comment — he’s at a F-it moment. Just let life come at you; take it as it comes. To me; the older I get - don’t take life too seriously. Enjoy more; work less. We’ve got but one life on this earth. Make it with it. Not to be stupid and quit your job etc…. But don’t live to work; work to live. Work is a means to and end. Anyhow; rant over - excellent song regardless |

| Black Rebel Motorcycle Club – White Palms Lyrics | 10 months ago |
|
if I have to take it at it's literal meaning...its a mockery of Christ...(taunting him to come back to Earth). But the drug references are indeed intriguing... I've always loved the bass line on this one.. Great tune. |

| Ryan Adams – Meadowlake Street Lyrics | 10 months ago |
|
Excellent song full of imagery. Pretty self explanatory; man loses girl...and remembers it when he passes her old house (and the big tree is missing). Beautiful song. |

| Love Spit Love – Believe Lyrics | 11 months ago |
|
Man, NO comments on this is one yet? Crazy. Fucking catchy sound that sounds like you’ve either got depressed folks or mute persons involved. “She’s gone to sleep and won’t get up” This sounds like a classic OD But regardless; great riffs… takes me back to college. Underrated song |

The tone on this song is unbelievable. Grant Lee Philips can coax tone outta an acoustic like few can. And the lyrics..whether literal or not; brilliant. |

These mockingbird won't let me shine. Excellent song. Excellent tone. Still spinning this one well into 2023. |

Gorgeous song all around. When the works is crap..your job sucks that day.. all that really matters is your girl !! She should make everything better. Awesome song. |
|
| Metallica – If Darkness Had A Son Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
Awesome track off of 72 seasons. My interpretation is it could about ANY addiction/temptation the listener has... Chorus speaks for itself: If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be Proves we can all get past our demons with a lil help from our friends (and some divine intervention). |

|
@[Lowman:46700] Crazy man -- thanks for your perspective. I also had just read recently that I believe they were playing card the night before; and Kirk H. would've been in that bunk; had Cliff not drawn the ace of spades... Definitely fact check me if i'm off base; but a wild twist of fate. |
|
| Metallica – Bleeding Me Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
Gotta be about any f*cking addiction that one has. We've *probably* all been there...something that you just can't shake... That's my interpretation of: Caught under wheel's roll I take the leech, I'm bleeding me Can't stop to save my soul I take the leash that's leading me Excellent sound and lyric as always. Wasn't a mad fan of this album in its entirety back in 96' but now that i'm older and re-listen to it...its fantastic. Life's experiences will do that to ya, I suppose. 'Tallica rocks forever! |

| Def Leppard – Billy's Got A Gun Lyrics | 1 year ago |

My thoughts..Billy is on his last leg, and about to "snap"... I mean, check it out: Yeah, Billy's got a gun, he's gonna shoot ya down He's got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise There's danger in the air Would never fly today (this song); they'd flag him for being a psycho. But hell, beautiful lyric, and beautiful riff. It works; and its the last great album before they went all corporate. Gotta love it. |

| Peter Tosh – Downpresser Man Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
To me, his greatest version is: Equal Rights/Downpressor Man (Live) on the The Best Of Peter Tosh 1978-1987 album. This song to me could be interpreted a number of ways. Definitely sounds first to be about the landowners/politicians of Jamaica. Their shenanigans will eventually be exposed. All in all a great song. Even better in the live version! |
|
| Manic Street Preachers – If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
"So it's about finding the courage to change the world around you to make a better future" Gotta heist this from a previous comment -- I feel this song STILL resonates in 2023. Meaning that if we as a people don't change our behavior to the environment etc.. the next generation WILL inherit our problems.. Regardless, great song. |

| Led Zeppelin – The Rover Lyrics | 1 year ago |
|
Heard this song for the first time around 1985 (thanks OTA radio!! 98 Rock Baltimore, props) and I was blown away. Young kid was hooked on 'Zep from then on... The Rover has, to me, always been one of the most storied Zep songs. I've never divulged too much into the meaning, however, the guitar on it is legendary. Had this album on tape, and about wore it out (40 mins a side will do that)... Kings of Rock N' Roll! |

| The Rolling Stones – Stupid Girl Lyrics | 2 years ago |

Great song - We've all known one (or two) that fit this exact mold. Think that they are God's gift to the green earth. Definitely not a sexist song, as its not classifying ALL women. Stupid people now a days. |
|
| Billy Joel – It's Still Rock And Roll To Me Lyrics | 2 years ago |
|
One of the best lines in a pop song ever: Well, should I try to be a straight-A student? If you are then you think too much In my opinion, a shot at the people that try to be too much and work too hard. Have a bit of fun once in awhile. |
|
| Poison – Life Goes On Lyrics | 2 years ago |
|
The solo in this song is second to none -- CC really could rip it on the axe. Underrated guitarist. As for the song and Brett's lyrics -- MOST of us have been in this situation at some point in our lives... Edit: As for Justintime's post from 2006, I've heard this before also -- this would indeed alter the meaning of the song dramatically. |
|
| George Thorogood – Gear Jammer Lyrics | 2 years ago |

Brilliant song, brilliant Sax, Brilliant bluesy guitar. What more could one ask for? As far as meanings.. Trucker is stating to pretty much not get in his way on the Ol' Interstate... |

Can't say anything that hasn't been said already. What a brilliant piece of writing / guitar riffs... I HAVE been to Land's End, and it is magnificent. Sammy is absolutely correct. If ya can't be there though, Sammy has a pretty dang good interpretation on this one. Let's all go to Cabo! |
|
| Aerosmith – My Girl Lyrics | 2 years ago |
|
Always loved this song off of Pump. Surprised there aren't more comments on this one! Definitely underrated late 80's tune from the boys from Boston. Bottom line, he's bragging on how great his girl is! When you find the one you know.... |
|
| Aerosmith – The Other Side Lyrics | 2 years ago |
|
Still sounds fresh after all these years. Joey Kramers drums just rock out on this tune. Gonna steal this one from a source -- but I believe this song goes something like this: "He know what it feels like to be loved the way he loves her (Other side). For somebody to go after him, and be open about the way they feel. A mutual free flowing relationship". |
|

| Velvet Revolver – Fall To Pieces Lyrics | 2 years ago |

Have to piggy back on a previous commenter -- this song is about the drug BS and how his girl supports him through it all. Shows how fucking addiction is just a beast. RIP Mr. Weiland |

| Late to this party...but wow. Powerful stuff. This song is simply awesome. One of Pink Floyd's best. | |

Love this song. So many memories I have from '97... But this line gives me chills always: Time Stands still As you take Your last pill May reference depression, someone trying to escape it all.... Just a brilliant composition overall. |

| Pailhead – No Bunny Lyrics | 2 years ago |
|
Wow so no one has commented on this one in how many years??? My interpretation is this is about just angst. Don't follow the masses, don't believe everything you read, don't conform to conformity. What else is there to be said? It's Pailhead. |
|
| Survivor – The Search Is Over Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
Cheezy song if you grew up in the 80's, yet as one gets older, the lyrics make more sense. It's about finding the one that completes you for your life. Great song now that I'm older.. younger, I definitely changed the dial... |
|
| Stone Temple Pilots – Still Remains Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
I have to plagiarize and state this is one of the most deep lines ever: "Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave. If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend." My translation: He has found his true soulmate & if is she is to leave, he would be nothing. Great riff. Great band. RIP Mr. Weiland, you were an inspiration to me Timeless song. |
|
| Pink Floyd – Comfortably Numb Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
One must watch the the movie "The Wall" to fully comprehend this album. However, to me, this song is abiut a man who's just had it with society and is numb to all the BS that's going on in the world. And oh by the way, one of the most brilliant & beautiful guitar solos ever laid down on tape. If you don't get chills, you don't have a pulse. Gilmour is one if the greatest guitarist of our time. Period. |

Wow. Only 3 comments? What a brilliant composition. David Koresh all the way, yes. What a freaking tragedy. A riff that still gives me chills to this day. Timeless track. |
|
| Grant Lee Buffalo – Honey Don't Think Lyrics | 5 years ago |
| Man.. what a deep song. To me. It's about he's found his soulmate & he's telling her don't think too deep... You just know when it's right... Don't dwell on the imperfections.. | |
