| Cold War Kids – Hang Me Up to Dry Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
I agree it's about being led on, and the lyric should definitely be changed to "muck and the mire" What's intriguing about this song, is that the singer is perfectly aware that he's being led on, it almost makes you wonder if he truly wants to be let alone. This song may be entirely sexual. He's telling the "you" that he's been wrung out-- twisted, warped, robbed of juices over and over and over again. At the same time, it's almost as if the singer doesn't have a say in if he may leave the situation or not. The line "mud caked deep in the knees" is definitely suggestive, just the idea of mud on knees suggests kneeling (and sexual favors ensuing), and the crevice of a knee joint being pact with mud can be taken as rather explicit sexual imagery. (Think about it.) The second verse is almost trippy. Again, he's aware of how confusing the situation is ("mixed up in the wash"). The song brings accent to the word hot, and the entire line "hot water bleeding out colors" implies that there is a melding of one into another. Those involved (the two or three or more) are bathed, lost, and literally melting into each other in hot water. Again, a sexual reference. At the end of the whole situation, he is left white (like eyes), colorless, beaten wrung out.. perhaps post-coitus? For some reason, though, I want to take the "pearly as the whites of your eyes" to mean I'm just like you now. I have no support for this, just a feeling. Anyone else feel me? [oh and scuba, let us have our fun :)] |

| Denali – Real Heat Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
1. MISSING LYRICS: no sleep, real heat how can this be a good thing seconds, hours far from true Stop slow, I could go on and on... 2. Because of those missing lyrics, i don't think the song is about foreplay, but rather being fed up with someone's bullshit namely from the line: "pockets full onto you" |

| Gwen Stefani – What You Waiting For? Lyrics | 21 years ago |

I agree, in the past, Gwen very frequently wrote about personal events in her life (cough, don't speak, cough). I think this song does touch on the repetativeness of music of many mainstrean performers, but I think, in a satirical manner, she's reflecting on her own apprehensiveness to delve into the music industry by herself (noted primarily by the first four lines of the song). I think the song is about her facing pressures of the music industry; namely, producing what her fans would still be attracted to ("You know it all by heart, why are you standing in one place?") and pressures of time. The video reflects this as well. I'm impressed by her first single. I just hope other fans can grasp its depth. Gwen is f'in awesome. |

| Nikka Costa – Corners Of My Mind Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
does anyone know the speech to this song? so far this is all i've gathered: "...'cause when you have real change everybody begins to change, teachers begin to teach new lessons preachers begin to preach a new sound, and the musician often tries to capture the new things, so that we might have melody and have rhythym...and no matter how dreary the situation a situation is, and how difficult it may be, that the song really doesn't matter until the song begins to get you down." i can't find who made the speech anywhere, but it's such a subtle accent that complements the song. i just feel i'd sleep easier knowing it :) |
