Again, "black plastic" is taken from the complete phrase "black plastic chairs." You are both claiming this song has to do with bondage because it includes this one phrase, which isn't even complete. You are both taking it out of context. And since this is all you have, you both back it up with really farfetched connections, like linking "with time to spare" to waiting to get what's wanted from a dominatrix. This kind of observation wouldn't even fly in a middle school English paper. You have a problem with my critique, and I have a problem with poorly written arguments. |

LOL@Roxanne The song might be referencing latex; however, your interpretation is typical of most on this site - a blend of objectivity and bias. Your assertion that "people with discreet fetishes recognize one another easily, and feel a special, secret connection" is not only laughably absurd, but also bears no relevance to the lyrics whatsoever. This sounds more like a personal fantasy - one that does not exist. How are the lyrics "smug?" I'm having a hard time figuring out why you used that word, other than for show (which I believe was probably the case). And to conclude my nitpicking of the irrelevant stuff, you seem to believe it's some kind of revelation that fetishists have "boring nights." It isn't. To anyone. Additionally, there's not a single indication in the song that the subject is experiencing a boring night, other than the phrase, "with some time to spare." Of course, there's also no clear-cut indication the song is about latex, either. The only evidence to support this theory is the incomplete phrase "black plastic" taken from "black plastic chairs," as well as the culture surrounding Ladytron, which I'm sure influenced your opinion. Despite the fact that the song may nevertheless be about latex, the amount of frivolous detail layering your interpretation, which was founded to begin with on a debatable theme, leads me to conclude that this is just another example of a person projecting their own personal life into a supposed song meaning and representing it here as objective. In the future, please don't. Erm, that is all. |

| Although "Nalyubuites" is listed on most lyric pages (including the Yoko Kanno Project), it sounds a lot more like "Mana du vortes" to me. If you listen carefully it's Latin, not Russian. There is some debate on this elsewhere, and the consensus was that it's "Mana du vortes." | |

Nevermind. http://www.motor.de/motormeinung/motor.de/nine_inch_nails_der_apokalyptische_reiter.html Capital G scheint aber schon ziemlich deutlich auf George W. zugeschnitten zu sein, oder? Capital G." bedeutet "Greed". |

the song is obviously about kurt. it's about how nothing ever makes him happy, how he "gets what he wants and he never wants it again." i believe kurt was initially thrilled with nirvana's out-of-nowhere success and the fact that grunge in general began to gain the appreciation it deserved. yet we all know success quickly lost its appeal to him, and he had recurrent thoughts about leaving. when kurt and courtney's relationship began and was thriving, he frequently talked about her publicly and how happy he was with their relationship. kurt was heavily binging on heroin around the time his daughter was conceived. speaking of which, after frances was born, kurt seemed to have a newfound appreciation of life, and his close friends took notice. i don't need to mention what happened next. the first two paragraphs are about kurt's unwillingness to fully commit "might last a day," whereas courtney's love "is forever." "i told you from the start just how this would end." in the first paragraph, kurt warns her, "you should learn how to say no." i think it's pretty clear that kurt was honest in describing himself and his problems to courtney early in their relationship. he warned her about his tendencies, especially his tendency to become heavily focused on and excited about something, only to lose interest for no apparant reason. she took a chance, and he "took everything." |
