first time i heard it, i immediatly thought of fleetwood mac's 'everywhere', sonoflife! the 'down under' inspiration didn't strike me until i read your post, but i can definitely hear it, too. |

very straightforward lyrics, awesome synthy-fueled melody. it's all very simple but it builds a lovely atmosphere... i love it. the vocals have a delicate sincerity and expresses a pain that feels very real. always a favorite in 90's themed parties. |

i wasnt't familiar with the 7'' picture, thanks for pointing it out - now that you put it into perspective, it illustrates the song so beautifully.

BillyBudd is right IMO. if people bash women for being outspoken about such subject today (check the comments...), you can imagine the names Debora was called, back in 1982. I would say that's how you make a stand about such subject in a fun, danceable way... if you can stand such small-minded people. |

as for the meaning of the lyrics, yes, i always understood it as being about a porn star falling for her screen partner and asking for more, because she actualy feels what she is supposed to act (that is, she wants the guy for real). |

| The B-52's – Private Idaho Lyrics

actually i find some meaning on it. could it be patterns on tv static? maybe...
but i always thought they were singing about not letting your surroundings mold you, about being yourself. as everyone knows, the b-52's came from rural america, which can suck you up and make you a small-minded simpleton (a category in which most people fall into).
as i see this song, they're simply saying 'be one of a kind', like they did. and they became one of the funniest new-wave bands. how dull and serious was rock music before them? |

it's about a girl that is too careful, too precautious and fills her life with mundanity so that she doesn't feel empty ('reads Simone de Beauvoir') about not having someone to love.
she doesn't seem to get rid of the emptiness ('there are always needles in the hay'), although she tries to deny that ('she says all she needs is therapy').
i love the line "she looks like Eve Marie Saint in On the Waterfront". sounds mysterious if you don't know Eve Marie Saint is an actress which won the oscar for her role in On the Waterfront. she was very beautiful btw, so it probably means Jodie does not have someone 'cause she avoids it for being her "great disappointment".
i hope i got it right. |
