When I hear the words to this song, I hear a story of a woman who has fallen in love with someone who is mentally unstable, possibly suicidal. It seems as though, to wards the end of the song, her lover has committed suicide. That's just how I interpret the song. |

| Björk – Big Time Sensuality Lyrics

I think that this song, is about meeting someone and getting physically intimate early off in the relationship...I like this song a lot, because it isn't bitching and moaning about the dangers and terrible things that can happen when you start off a relationship with sex. Its hard enough for women in every society to except and embrace thier sensuality, so its good to hear a positive song for once. |

This song means so much to me. I first heard this song, at the ending of one of my favorite movies, "Hackers." With all the cheesy, impossible situations that the movie contains, (( I.E. hacking on a Mac...)) aside, this song ends the movie in perfect mood, to the characters depicted in the last scene. Which in return, reminds me in a lot of ways, not nessisarily literally, of how I love the man that I do. The words to the song, seem simple, but in order to understand them fully, you have to hear the way that they are being expressed. The soft humming of the electric keyboard, gentle, soft piano notes, a hollow bodied electric, mixed with a serious man speaking along with another man belting out every word of the chourus with almost a conviction. This song is almost perfect for its highly unique stylized sense and the imagery I recieve so effortlessly from it. This song gives me shivers, it makes me cry and smile and want to right ridiculously long comments on it...I just love this song so much. |

| Everclear – Father Of Mine Lyrics
| 22 years ago
|
My father was in a band and he ended up cheating on my mother, (while she was pregnant with me) with the lead singer of his band...He kicked her out of the house, eight months pregnant, with one child and one on the way. We lived in wellfare apartments, getting Christmas presents from Diaper coupons and playing with the other abandoned kids. My mother worked her way through college and managed to raise my sister and myself, semi-normal. I grew up in the slums of the east bay, but it just makes me more grateful for everything that I have now.
This song, seems as though it was writen for my sister and I. I cant describe, to anyone who has grown up with married parents in the suburbs, what it is like to literally be like the kid in this song, but I can say, that it has given me a voice in some ways. This song means more to me than I can explain, especially on Fathers Day. |

I remember this song quite vividly from my young adulthood. I remember my mother, older sister and I were driving around town and this song came on the radio. I started to sing it and my mother started to cry. She said that the song was about abortion and suicide and that I was too young to sing a song like it. I never quite understood all the words, untill now. I wonder if this song was inspired by true events that took place in the authors life or his personal opinions on abortion... |

This song is a classic example of professing unrequited love to someone. More so than what the song has to do directly with my life, I wonder who was the object of such adoration in the lyriscists life? |

This song reminds me of my ex boyfriend Matt. He is a big APC fan and when I heard this song, I was shocked at how much it reminded me of him. I think it is weird, that this song was not only performed but written by a man. To me, this song seems like it would have come from a females perspective. I guess, I am just saying that because I am a woman and it relates to me so much...oh well, I think the important thing is that people take from it what they may and use it to help themselves. I am glad, even though this may not have been the intention of the song, that a man, can seem to say that sex is used as a means of fullfilment and it shouldn't be. I wish that I could send these lyrics to Matt, maybe he'd learn something... |
