The Elected – Waves Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is so optimistic!
"I just know when puddles form
I don't stay inside and let it pour.
There's better forecasts for me."
this bit is the best. i'd like to paint it all over the walls everywhere i go, so that everyone can feel good. which is cheesy, but in a good way.

The Elected – C'mon, Mom Lyrics 21 years ago
"C'mon, friends.
Let's make those repairs."
a great line. it gives you the feeling that everything around him is in ruin, but he's still optimistic. it always makes me feel better, no matter what is going on.

Elliott Smith – Pitseleh Lyrics 21 years ago
this song is so great, not only musically but lyrically, too. Elliott had that great way of putting the feelings that we all feel at some point into words that we could never figure out how to say. this song is one of the best examples of that.
"i got a joke i been dying to tell you
a silent kid is looking down the barrel
to make the noise that i kept so quiet "
that's so brutal and bitter. but it's so perfect.

The Elected – Go On Lyrics 21 years ago
this is easily my favorite Elected song and one of my favorite songs by any band, for that matter. it's not even a song, it's an experience.
"now go on and make your family proud
and go on and stake your claim in this ground
now go on and take that last dream down and it'll get you through
what did they put you through?"
that whole part sends chills up my spine. you can feel that anger, that frustration. it's beautiful.
