| Vampire Weekend – I Stand Corrected Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think that he said something jokingly (it wasnt funny anyway) that she took wrong and overreacted. she then wanted nothing to do with him so to keep her as a friend/lover he apologizes by standing corrected. It happened to me once but she still didnt care. | |
| C.W. McCall – Convoy Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| My old man made me memorize this thing some people call a song. I got ungrounded after I could sing it back to him. Such wierd punishme.nts | |
| Eve 6 – Think Twice Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I wanna fight if I could Id go down to Missouri where I left that trifling whore (who I still kinda want) I would fight that new fucker of hers. He would probably kick my ass but the few shots I got in would be worth it. Thats all I can think of when i hear this song. | |
| Gordon Lightfoot – The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
I agree with the lines everyone has pointed out has haunting but i would like to add the best "And all that remains is the faces and the names Of the wives and the sons and the daughters." |

| Green Day – Minority Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
My old roommate and I were going somewhere and this song was on he asked my why anyone would want to be in the minority. I explained my case and he still said he would never want to be in the minority. that was part of the reason I didnt live with him after the lease was up. Also someone might have mentioned this already but the use of a sheep in the song brings to mind people who just follow. The whole shepard flock thing. He doesnt want to be a sheep |

| Otis Redding – (Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The song is about being down and out. The whistiling at the end was to fill the space that he didnt have lyrics for when he recorded it. He was going to go back and write words for it and rerecord it. Knowing that makes the song even more powerful. A depressing song that he couldn't even get properly finished. | |
| Otis Redding – I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The line "Good god almighty I love you" is the most real line ive ever heard in a song | |
| Wyclef Jean – Sweetest Girl (Feat. Akon, Lil' Wayne, Niia) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Waldo just comparing a song to "like a rolling stone" means it is great. If I did anything in my life comprable to a Bob Dylan song I would be happy. As for the song If shes an immigrant she would have had to done it early in life since the narrotor(s) knew her in highschool. In highschool she showed a lot of potential. Now she has a kid and is a stripper/hooker. The song is great. I love Wayne. I like Wyclef, but they shoulda got someone other than akon. | |
| The Proclaimers – Cap In Hand Lyrics | 15 years ago |

| Danko Jones – Forget My Name Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Very catchy song. About a stunning woman that might give him a chance if he had the stones to do something about it. | |
| David Bowie – Young Americans Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Discerner, David Bowie liked at least some some American music. Hell he even wrote a song about Bob Dylan. As far as the ASC stuff mentioned earlier doesn't almost everyone think their home (Country, State, Province, City) is best? |

| Biz Markie – Just A Friend Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think its a guy picked up instead of "on my dime, picked up" Great song with good advice. | |
| Tom Petty – You Wreck Me Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| "Tonight we ride" is how I open half of my phone conversations. The line "if i dont win im gonna break even" is a great feeling that I've had a few times its when no matter how bad you screw up you will still come out of it alright. | |
| Gnarls Barkley – Who's Gonna Save My Soul Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Id have to agree with you guys except for I got some bad news this morning which in turn made my day If someone important to you died it wouldn't make your day. I think it might be his own impending death. |

| Great band. Deserve more attention. | |
| Afroman – Tumbleweed Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
That being said the song is clearly about smoking. It is also however about the wicked cycle that a lot of people fall into. They smoke to get away from problems. But it costs money which leads to other problems: I got no food for my stomach Got no gas for my Coupe De Ville and makes it harder for them to get a job I've got to lie to the man, Tell him that I've never been arrested. I've got to go to the clinic baby I've got to get drug tested |

| Afroman – Tumbleweed Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
These are the lyrics to tumbleweed. However they are so fucking terribly wrong I don't know where to start so I'll just post the whole song. It's been a long, long time I've been smoking, smoking marijuana. It takes me out of my mental ghetto, and places me in the Bahamas. It's been a long, long time I've been smoking, smoking marijuana. It takes me out of my mental ghetto, and places me in the Bahamas. It puts my mind at ease, Indulging myself in the calm breeze. And my problems will float away, beyond the palm trees. But I gotta keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on. I keep choking and a choking and a choking on. I keep selling and a selling and inhaling, My tumbleweed. I like to go to Palmdale Sit by the fountain I light up a fat one gazing at the snow capped mountains I like to go to Palmdale Sit by the fountain Light up a fat one gazing at the snow capped mountains Baby please don't nag Go and get me the Zig Zag And my problems will blow away Like a plastic bag But I gotta keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on. I keep choking and a choking and a choking on. I keep selling and a selling and inhaling. My tumbleweed. I need to get a job And that's not funny Cause me be smoking too much ganja And me running out of money I've got to lie to the man, Tell him that I've never been arrested. I've got to go to the clinic baby I've got to get drug tested I got no food for my stomach Got no gas for my Coupe De Ville I've got to walk to the supermarket. For some Golden Seal Cuz everyday I be smoking and a smoking and a smoking on. And I be choking and a choking and a choking on. And I be selling and a selling and inhaling. My tumbleweed. I said the black man smoking If he's a slow bro I said the Mexican smoking If he's a cholo I said the Creole smoking Down in Mississippi I said the white man smoking If he's a hippie It puts my mind at ease Indulging myself in the calm breeze And my problems will float away Beyond the palm trees But I've got to keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on. I keep choking and a choking and a choking on. I keep selling and a selling and inhaling. My tumbleweed It puts my mind at ease Indluging myself in the calm breeze And my problems will float away Beyond the palm trees But I've got to keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on. I keep choking and a choking and a choking on I keep selling and a selling and inhaling My tumbleweed |

| The Vapors – Turning Japanese Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The song is both funny and excellently delivered. | |
| The White Stripes – Hotel Yorba Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
My favorite White Stripes song. I think its because they're happy. To whoever compared Jack White to Kurt Cobain needs to rot in hell. Kurt Cobain was a one trick horse. He wrote good lyrics. He couldn't sing and barely played guitar. Jack's lyrics are at least as good as Kurt's he sings better too. The HUGE difference is guitar. Jack is among the best playing today. |

| Matisyahu – Beat Box Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
The song is about the power of music. I think yoni did the first verse and matis did the last two, because matis ancestry would not have been on cotton plantations and yoni's could have been. My mother sang songs in camps of concentration. His mother sang songs outside the cotton plantations |

| skeletor nailed it. | |
| Modest Mouse – Missed the Boat Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| First time I heard the song it sounded like a group of people trying to get off an Island. After reading the lyrics I think it might be an anti-war song. | |

| The White Stripes – You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You're Told) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Jack White is King Midas. Everything he touches is golden. The White Stripes and The Racontuers both great. I can have no sin because I never criticize Jack White. | |
| Tom Petty – You Don't Know How It Feels Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Tom Petty is the greatest artist of road music ever. By road music I mean if your just out for a drive not really going anywhere you put on tom petty and head out to the country and you just chill out. | |
| The Rolling Stones – Shattered Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Mick's energy and passion are both on display in this song. Mick is the reason I prefer The Stones over The Beatles | |

| Eminem – Till I Collapse Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
To change "back and forth" to "forth and back" in But I don't wanna go forth and back in constant battles to make it work in the song and people to know what hes saying without missing a beat is incredibly smart |
|
| Pavement – Stereo Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
To the whole Pavement compared to Radiohead if you want to compare Pavement to another band I would have to say Velvet Underground. I think they sound similar and both are under appreciated. Favorite Pavement song by the way. |

| Phish – Bouncing Around the Room Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| dont know what happened there. Anyway we replayed the song. This time i focused on the music. It is THE best song at building as it goes. Stairway to Heaven only wishes it built up the tension the way this song does, which is saying something. The song sneaks in instruments as it goes and slowly builds to a great moment when everything peaks. | |
| Phish – Bouncing Around the Room Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I think the lyrics are great but I MUST talk about the music. The first time I heard this song I was drunk and had been smoking. My friend and I were playing songs we thought the other one would not know. So i was listening to the words and voice trying to decide who it could be. About halfway through the song I noticed the music. It hit me like a ton of bricks. The layering and volume changes blew me away. As the song finished I didn't know who it was but | |
| Bob Dylan – Knockin' on Heaven's Door Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| When I hear this song it makes me think of a dying man who regrets many of the choices he has made. By putting his guns and badge in the ground he doesn't want other people to make the same mistakes he has. Thats just what I think no facts to back it up. | |
