| Tool – Lateralus Lyrics
| 22 years ago

Anyone understand times signatures? Listen to the "chorus" - Over thinking, over analysing... Each bar is in a different time signature. 9/8, 8/8, 7/8. This repeats three times, fora total of 9 bars. This forms the number 987, which has some significance on the fibonacci sequence (I think, anyway. I know it's on there). |

| Eminem – Sing For The Moment Lyrics
| 22 years ago
|
|
To all you who think that Eminem is some sort of musical genius, or that this is one of the greatest albums of all time, I have to explain some things to you. Eminem makes songs that are easy to listen to, I'll agree. But he's not a musician, and I don't think he's overly talented. I mean, rap in general has no musical value whatsoever, as it's prettymuch all repetitive computer generated drumbeats and some simple synthesized bass. So to call Eminem, or any rapper for that matter, a musical genius is a farce. But since they have no musical value, their strength has to be in their lyrics and vocal talent. To be honest, Eminem can't sing. He more or less talks to a beat, he doesn't sing. And his lyrics are mainly him bitching about everything, in normal prose. Once again, no musical value. He's not a lyricist, he just writes long satirical rants about how the world is too mean to him. It flows extremely well, I'll give you that, but there's no deeper meaning, no metaphors, nothing. If you guys think that this is among the best that music has to offer, I honestly pity you. There's so much more out there, so much actual musical talent. My sympathies are with you. |

| Modest Mouse – Never Ending Math Equation Lyrics
| 22 years ago
|

The never ending math equation is the the "unified field theory", or the theory of everything. Einstein was among the first to try and figure it out, but never did. No one has, and we may never do it. What they're trying to do is to find one equation that unifies the four fundamental forces of nature: strong nuclear, weak nuclear, electromagnetic, and gravitational. These are the only four forces in the universe, everything else is based on them. So if you find an equation that links them all together, you have the equation that EVERYTHING works on..."The universe works on a math equation". However, some believe it doesn't exist..."never even ever really ends in the end" |

This song is incredibly well written, and flows really well. It is one of many examples of Bad Religion's lyrical genius. |

I can totally relate to the line "I'm lonesome when you're around"...sometimes I feel that way with my girlfriend. Like she's there physically, and not mentally. Very disheartening... |

I first really heard this song on one of the most emotional nights of my life, and it made me fall in love with my girlfriend a million times over. An incredibly beautiful song. I'm going to see them live on our one year anniversary. I can't imagine anything more perfect. |

This is the greatest song of all time. The pure emotion in Dexter's voice when he sings the chorus is incredible. Absolutely perfect. |
