The Blood Brothers – The Salesman, Denver Max Lyrics 20 years ago
This song just shows how strange/beautiful the Blood Brothers' lyrics can be. "I eat heart attacks"? Brilliant.

The Faint – Glass Danse Lyrics 20 years ago
This is quite possibly the most dance-able song ever. I'm not a big dance girl, but when I heard this at the Faint concert, I couldn't help it...

Planes Mistaken for Stars – Pillbox Lyrics 21 years ago
I can't believe only one person has commented on this song. It's amazing; one of the shortest yet most complete descriptions of how it feels to be on drugs. Then again, as a (former) "druggie," I'm biased.

Bright Eyes – Light Pollution Lyrics 21 years ago
It's "John A. Hobson," actually. But yeah, brilliant song. I agree, totally the best song on "Digital Ash In a Digital Urn."

Effing brilliant.

Bright Eyes – Drunk Kid Catholic Lyrics 21 years ago
I love this song. It reminds me of how the druggies get high, the drunks get wasted, the Catholics pray, but in the end they're all just looking for answers and redemption. Although I relate to the drunk much better. ...and it does remind me of Mr. Roger's neighborhood. Eerily so.

Bright Eyes – Patient Hope in New Snow Lyrics 21 years ago
Bright Eyes is basically considered indie rock. But yeah, this song rocks my argyle-print socks.

Marcy Playground – Sex And Candy Lyrics 21 years ago
The best song. Ever.
-or at least from 1997, anyway.

Limp Bizkit – Behind Blue Eyes (The Who cover) Lyrics 21 years ago
"Behind Blue Eyes" is a song so good only Fred Durst could ruin it.

Alkaline Trio – Queen Of Pain Lyrics 21 years ago
Loverboy, I think that 'fucked note' was put in there for the effect...

Neutral Milk Hotel – She Did a Lot of Acid Lyrics 21 years ago
This is definitely one of my favorite NMH songs. I can really relate to it... it's about a troubled girl who was trying to escape her problems through the obvious means: drugs, sex, and cigarettes. Her family doesn't pay attention to her while she's alive, other than to write off. Like so many other families, they are simply to concerned with themselves to truly reach out to the troubled girl. Finally, the girl hangs herself on her birthday. Finally, her family realizes how disturbed the girl was, but they're too late to help her.

Sunny Day Real Estate – Seven Lyrics 21 years ago
I could relate this song to drugs... but I see that's already been done. I love this song... it's probably the emo anthem of the 90's.

Bright Eyes – It's Cool, We Can Still Be Friends Lyrics 21 years ago
Maybe it is "vent work", but sometimes the most honest songs can be the most powerful. Even though it's not as lyrically/melodically intricate, I still think this is one of Conor Oberst's greatest songs.... I think everyone can relate to it on some level.
