| Rammstein – Amerika Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Magicman, this President has never taken up arms against this nation's citizenry, unlike his predecessor. But then, the tyranny of the Left is famous. Oft-ignored, but famous. | |
| Metallica – We're a Happy Family (Ramones cover) Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This is off of "Resurrect 'Em All." | |
| Fabolous – Holla Back Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This song was inspired by Fabolous meeting a guy in an adult bookstore, and giving him his phone number. "Holla back." Explains the name... | |
| The Beatles – Taxman Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| The rich are taxed disproportionately everywhere. And it kills economies. These "loopholes" are never quite enough to combat governmental greed. Or, is a government incapable of this? | |
| Johnny Cash – Ring of Fire Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| I always thought this song was about anal. | |
| Randy Travis – Forever and Ever Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
Don't mess with Texas. This was one of those songs that really got me into country. Just great. I think it means... he's gonna' love her forever and ever. (And with country songs, you never wonder what the sex of the person being sung about is. It sucks when you dig a Depche Mode song, but you get the feeling you're singing along to a song about inhaling peters.) This song surely ranks among the Top 50 love songs. |

| Brad Paisley – Whiskey Lullaby Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| It's songs like this that make me glad I've grown to love country. And Brad Paisley is great. I do not love all country, but there are some really great artists out there. This is the best of the best. | |
| Rammstein – Amerika Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Could I have put it more succinctly? ;) Bravo. | |

This is a cool song. Obvious, but cool. When one sees the video, it smacks of jealousy. The whole Leftist joke that America never actually landed on the Moon. Cute. Yawn. I can understand arguments against the war in Iraq. The best one I ever heard is that Saddam was the only one who could control those nuts. Militant Islam had no shot of really taking hold there so long as Saddam and his kids ruled with their nasty iron fists. And we took him out. Basically, what my friend the Canadian doctor was saying is that Bush screwed up in thinking democracy could be spread among such savages. "So that would make him an idealist who was wrong," i asked. "Yes," said Doc. The flip side of that is that - the WMD existed, and still exist. (Ask Bill Clinton, who in '98 was telling all the world we had to go to war with iraq. Or Jean Kerry, who said anyone who did not think Saddam Hussein was a threat to the U.S. was "a fool." In fact, ask France, Russia, and Germany, too - countries whose Security Council votes were secured by Hussein with Annan's funding.) Some of Saddam's chemical weapons showed up in Jordan, where they were going to be used to kill an estimated 80,000 people before the plot was thwarted. BBC (or whomever) didn't trumpet this? Too busy talking about some panties on some terrorist's head? Write 'em a letter, ask them why. While you're at it - ask them about Oil for Food, Anni's son, and the 21.3billion syphoned off by Saddam Hussein. The other flipside: While Bush seems loathe to actually name the enemy, we have the clarity to know who it is. Europe (and our neighbors to the north) is being overrun by Muslims. They have a real problem on their hands. The French are scared to death of their Muslims. When these problems all come to a head (as if they've not really, already), who're they gonna' turn to? Just a brief bit. ;) I like how this song rumbles. The pacing of the German parts is very cool. Santa going to Afrika, Mickey Mouse before Paris... they're trying to say something here. fact is, though, the spread of culture is more a matter of choice than force. The market works quite naturally, and people will latch onto those things that charm that they like. India, for example, was entirely free to go back to their old ways and eschew British customs when the Brits left. Why didn't they, then? Perhaps they felt these newer customs were superior to their older, more backward ones. (Oh, I know some people have their wrists akimbo, now...) :p One only needs to listen to a song like "Mein Teile" to know that, at the end of the day, these guys are a bunch of scumbags. :D ;) But 'Amerika' and its video - rock. |

| Franz Ferdinand – Michael Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| I am surprised no one (unless I missed it) has discussed what this song is really about: Their friend, Michael Schumacher. Going by the lyrics, they apparently did it to embarrass him. But Michael's a friend of the band, and this song was written for him. They don't want to bang Michael. They're just saying as much about the virtual billionaire. So you can leave the song on your CD and have a good laugh with the rest of us racing fans. | |
| Muse – Time Is Running Out Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Wow. Yeah, could definitely be about drugs. Could be about a girl on whom he is vastly obsessed - but looking through the lyrics and what some have written... I think it could be about drugs. So in that sense, it's like 'Master of Puppets' (or a million other songs?). Killer tune, no matter... | |
| Franz Ferdinand – Take Me Out Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| You know, the Franz Ferdinand connection actually does work with this song. I was wondering, since this is a Scottish band, if they might be making a statement about their being disarmed. (This isn't their only song with gun references. Or at least video.) But one can read the lyrics and see it could be Archduke Ferdinand, in that moment before he was killed, wishing to join his wife. Or, it could just be what Alex said it is. | |
| Franz Ferdinand – This Fire Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
There's such imagery in the video. They've got that part where the band turns into a Nuremberg rally. The vampiristic stuff. Hypnosis. Mailing letters, all seeming like part of a scheme of theirs. What are they up to? Taken alone, it could be about a very passionate love for someone... but one that could burn a city? Pretty pwoerful stuff, that. Really, this song could be about so many things. Where "Dark of the Matinee" is fun because it's simple, this is cool because it isn't. |

| Franz Ferdinand – The Dark of the Matinee Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| I figured it was more akin to high school or even grade school. In the video, he makes such a childish face when he mentions the clothes he hates. And, "How I'll never be, anything I hate." Things kids swear. It simply seems like a song about young love. That's one thing I love about this song - so uncomplicated. | |
| Incubus – Megalomaniac Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| I am voting for Bush tomorrow... and when I first gave it a good listen, I figured it was about him. "You're no Jesus, you're no fucking Elvis." That's pretty personal. I do not think one directs such words at no one in particular. | |
