| The Decemberists – I Don't Mind Lyrics
| 16 years ago
|
|
I think the person singing is either alluding to a Jesus-like forgiveness, or is, in fact, Jesus. The singer is speaking to a friend who is going through 'hard times'--perhaps having doubts with something, any situation really that might call for friendly support--mentioning examples of pure humanity, that is, flawed elements inside each and every one of us; the singer says "look, it's not just you that does these things...this person does this and this person messed up here"... and so on. Notice how the conjunction 'but' has an appearance multiple times in the song-each time marking a kind of comparable transition from 'positive' traits or descriptions to an imperfect view. The phrase 'I don't mind' carries with it this kind of forgiveness, this 'it's alright "ness"', to me. |

There's this song called 'Making Whoopee' and it has the same notes. I heard it instrumentally on the television tonight. I also saw a video on youtube and I'm so far convinced they share notes/beats.
Anyone know what I am talking about? |

i thought it was uneasy as well but three sites I confronted told me otherwise...eventually i lost my individual thought to the majority opinion and now im brainwashed into thinking that amazing is correct. i changed 'center' because that is something I missed out of laziness but I'm leaving amazing for now |

Can anyone out there watch the video, look me in the eye and tell me these lyrics are valid? It seems like they are not.
Does anyone out there share my confusion? |

I looked up Slowreader on amazon and only one album, featuring eleven songs, was found. So where is this song located? |

i think it is appropriate that it is on the verb commercial since it carries with it the whole "you can do it" ideology that is preached to our youth. It is a hopeful, confident song. |

excuse me for attempting to find a better meaning of the song ::makes heartbroken face::
and, it says "foreshadows a ghost" not "your shadow's a ghost"....upon further investigation you will be forced to realize it as well |

the singer has come a long way (fought many "battles" gone through obstacles etc.) and he has scars (bilsters) from it. california, meaning a dry, hot place...maybe out in the open..was ok but now he is in the shade...he's in a cooler environment...he's happier here...and through all of his pain he finds what he is looking for-ladybug,ladybird meaning his love-and shes the prettiest song he has heard-shes lovely..you know..
so hes in love and goes through hell to reach her-and he does. and thats my interpretation... |

the singer wants to have sex with his intended audience and he doesn't mind her (or his) sweat- he thinks it smells good in fact..and i guess that sounds simple but...eh......::runs away:: |

i agree with everything and i think that the singer is saying im glad you didn't die...and he wants the "attemptee" to realize that he loves them and he wants them to see that...see the happiness..the beauty |

i thought that the beginning of the song is the singer talking about a person he is in love with and how he will be with her when she loses her breath (sex for the first time) but the rest is just full of sex-related metaphors and wonderful lyrics which mesmerize me so i suppose i dont want to know what the song is about and so im proud of jeff mangum...hahaha modest mouse so rules |
