| Prince – When You Were Mine Lyrics
| 5 years ago
|
|
So I think Prince is singing from the perspective of a female roommate. She's in love with her and just going along with everything so she can keep her in her life. Sharing clothes and letting a guy sleep between the two of them. The roommate would've been between the two guys if it were flipped. |

For sure about cocaine effects and addiction. The girl is the "white girl." He's talking about the good and bad of it. Reminds of Sublime "Pool Shark" |

My dad and I didn't talk for a year until one day this song randomlly came on my playlist and I realized I was mad at him for the same things I found myself doing. Like father, like son is difficult to accept |

The ultimate "like father, like son" song. Things his dad did made him want to no be like his dad but he ended up repeating the same stuff and he had to tell his son that he'd understand once he's a father in his shoes |

I think this song is about a girl who starts off having sex with a guy thinking it will turn into something more, but as she gets older and more experienced she realizes that he's just only trying to hook up and fuck her. Her problem, even after she realizes it, is that she's so in love that she allows it to continue. Every male and female can relate to being one of those two roles. |

| Rogue Wave – Fear Itself Lyrics

|
Initially had no idea what the hell they were talking about, but after reading toadtws' comments and re-reading the lyrics I agree.
"Got nothing but the sea, sea around me"
and
"Happy to cut the trees, trees completely"
Global warming at it's finest. Song sounds a lot happier than that though haha |

I'm pretty sure this song is about Frank's first gay experience
"I remember, how could I forget?
How you feel?
And though you were my first time
A new feel" |

I really believe this song is about her crushing on a girl that she got really close too but couldn't have because she was straight and that's why they were out of each other's leagues |

Great song. Love songs that have the couple telling both sides of the story. Just like Postal Service's "Nothing Better." My favorite part of the video is when Kimbra breaks pattern to walk over to him |

It's a story about what happens all the time. A woman is with a man and wants more from him than he is willing to give. Most women have been in a relationship like that. |

I agree with Marquis in that it's about a breakup. After all the arguments, tolerating as much as they could of each other's shit and democratic compromising, they realize it's better if they just move on. It's painful to start over, but it's what they must do |

It's ridiculous how some of you are laughing at the fact that the song could be about LA. Especially when the song was actually written about LA. The original lyrics were "....and the sun shines done on LA." He just changed it from LA to the bay cuz it sounds better but the song's origins are LA |

I fell asleep and woke up to this song and had no idea it was on the album. It's so beautiful that you don't judge her for being a stalker. I cried the first time I came to the part when she realizes he has another girl. |

| fun. – At Least I'm Not as Sad (As I Used to Be) Lyrics

Love this song. I think it's the best on the album. To me the song is about a musician who sells out to the mainstream and left behind the other musicians and bands he came up with. He runs into them one day and tries to say he's happier now, but is lying cuz he can see how happy everyone else is laughing and singing. He sold out and realizes it by the end |

Eddie's songwriting skills are unbelievable and this was the song that made me a fan of Pearl Jam. The song is perfect because it relates to past relationships whether it be friends or romantic. We all have had special people in our life that we lost contact with and seeing them again brought back SO many feelings and emotions. My roommate won the KROQ trip to Portugal to see Pearl Jam this summer and I'm pissed I can't go for work |

Yeah the message is pretty clear to all of us in that Hollywood is where so many people come and have their dreams crushed. And even though he keeps descibing them as "fags", i don't get the feeling that he was necessarily talkin shit about homosexuals/homosexuality |

I believe this song to be about him growing up in a broken home and when he visits his mom on the weekends she
shows her affection by buying him toys and things. The man walking down the isle is his father to pick him up
when all he wants is 5 more minutes with her. As he gets older he would rather hang with his buddies. This was
my exact situation with my dad instead and this song makes perfect sense to me |

I think this song is about dreams, nightmares and laying there with your thoughts when you can't sleep.
Could be a result of doing drugs all night and can't sleep while coming down.
I got really excited at first cuz I swore Postal Service came out of retirement |

I actually heard that Carl and Jack were describing when they were high on cocaine. I'm trying to find the site I read that at, but I know I read that that is what its about. Either way its my favorite Beach Boy song |

I believe it is about someone who killed themself. The memory and truth about them is coming up from underground to hold you down and show everyone how wrong they were about them. Its too late so now all they can do is mourn at the wake |
