| Pet Shop Boys – Paninaro Lyrics | 3 years ago |
|
It's a song about Pan. Chris lists what music styles he dislikes, but he emphasises his like; Passion. Then later in the song he describes his lover, making it even clearer. It's possibly easier to understand as Chris's version of "It's A Sin". |

| Hilarious song. It evokes something of the Everly Brothers. | |
| Depeche Mode – John The Revelator Lyrics | 4 years ago |
|
It's about this guy called John who liked revels. He couldn't abide the coffee cremes, yet he loved the orange cremes. He knew the minstrels were not like minstrels and the maltesers lacked any malt. He got really annoyed when a toffee one removed his filling and he had a bipolar bicuspid moment. Eventually he settled down and wrote a book about his experiences which ended up being stuck in a Bible. People didn't really dig this book, but they all adhered to it and lived their lives by it, worshiping this two faced god/devil being of many names and eventually destroying Thier own civilization through greed and indifference. Basically, Martin Gore was slagging himself off. He probably purchased a cheap obscure blues compilation tape in a record store in the eighties and lifted the idea from there. |

It's Martin responding to himself in "Somebody". The clue is the heartbeat. |

| Starland Vocal Band – Afternoon Delight Lyrics | 4 years ago |
|
The narrator is playing with himself. That is, it's all taking place in the protagonists head. Literally, figuratively and metaphorically. It's an analogy too. |

| Talking Heads – Once In A Lifetime Lyrics | 4 years ago |
|
The 3D world which we largely occupy is generated through the interior world of thought. The water that flows underground. Under the rock and stone (the physical world) their is water (thought). You created your reality... my God what have I done. Same as it ever was. Look where my hand was. Was not was. You imagined a car and a wife, why did you imagine them not beautiful? What is it, where is it? My God what have I done. I made this. |

| Queen – Don't Loose Your Head Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
If you have no head, how can you love? no love equals only one head...you lose that no head and no love anymore for you! because you let your heart rule your head! if you let love in, love will win. If love wins over your head, you can be decaptiated as many times as you want...love will help you grow a new one. It's a simple message folks, if you see Christopher Lambert in a dirty trenchcoat don't accept the love he is offering from his 'head' It'll make a mess. |

I just can't see it.... De burgh, short, hairy......not particularly handsome.. Rosanna = Miss world? Maybe Chris wasn't the only one playing away from home!! |
|
| Chris De Burgh – The Ecstasy Of Flight (I Love The Night) Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
It's all about Vampires! Chris being a rather short and ugly man makes for a crap and rather unconvincing vampire. So actually Chris is a werewolf...a short and unfrightening werewolf that likes to dance a lot..and dance with slip on shoes. He's a dancing werewolf..sleeps all days come out under a full moon and dances. That's a scary image. The ecstasy of flight refers to him being kicked out of clubs all night long for being a disco wolf! |

The Eastern Wind he refers to is of course 'La Bise' See 'Lonely sky' for more details. |

| Split Enz – Bold As Brass Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| It's a jaunty little number used by doctors to cheer up victims of severe spinal injury. | |
| Queen – My Baby Does Me Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Well... I think the song is about a massive baby kitten in nappy terrorizing Freddie. This is an early indication of the insane toxoplasmosis death via HIV that would eventually get him..... |

| Chris De Burgh – The Devil's Eye Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
This is the sequel to 'Spanish Train' by De Burgh, and often over looked, it's a miniot classic, and as sequels go, quite well up to the standard fo the first. this time however the devil has given up on playing Chess and poker and has taken to buggering about with your TV remote. Also we learn in this song that the moon was once a thriving planet but God got a bit low on cash during a poker game with the devil (you'd think he would have learned after the Spanish Train incident) and had to call him with the moon, and the devil changed it from a lush green paradise into a piece of cheese. Could also be taken as a rant againt television. |
|
| Chris De Burgh – Quiet Moments Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This is perhaps one of the most beautiful songs ever written, spoiled only by the mental imagery of De burgh taking a glass of wine and holding a woman closely (perhaps in the buff). if you try not to think about that, it is quite a lovely song. | |

The great Monobrowed one getting high on 'La Bise' again whilst reading the bible. for further info see 'Lonely Sky' by de burgh. |

| Chris De Burgh – Lonely Sky Lyrics | 21 years ago |
|
The cold north wind they call "La Bise" Is swirling round about my knees. In medievial times, peasents reffered to there fowl smelling gaseous profusions as 'La Bise' hence 'swirling round about my knees' "Trees are crying leaves into the river" if you were a tree and De Burgh produced a 'La Bise' you'd cry your leaves off into the river too. "I'm huddled in this french café I never thought I'd see the day, But winter's here and summer's really over, Even the birds have packed up and gone, They're flying south with their song, And my love, she too has gone, she had to fly" he huddle in the cafe to escape the waft of 'La Bise' even he found it too overpowering. the effect of it all has bought about mass misgration of birds and the onset of winter (let this be a warning to us all on the effects off gaseous emissions or 'la bise') "They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight, They'll build a cage and steal your only sky, Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high, I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky..." it's fairly self explanatory when read with the verses, all the mentions of wind and flying and sailing in the sky possibly eluding to the gaseous psychedlic effects of 'la bise' "The old cathedral lights are low She and I we'd often go there To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer; " well, after a brisk southwesterly 'La Bise' you might well pay for your life. I think the final verse reminds us of the possible disastrous outcome of 'la bise' (possibly the 'El Ninio' of medieval times' perhaps the whole song is wrapped up by saying a stiff breeze, know as 'la bise' will cause much harm to the world. |

| George Michael – Careless Whisper Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| It's all about George's experience while eating a cadbury's Wispa on a hot summers day, he managed to get it all over his lovely new white shirt, and Andrew Ridgeley scoffed and muttered under his breath 'clumsy with a wispa' which pretty much ended Wham and inspired george to write this epic soft sax, middle classs, masturbatory participation style black leather sofa and leopard skin rug 'sophistication' song. | |
| Pet Shop Boys – King's Cross Lyrics | 21 years ago |

But it is actually about migration from Newcastle to London to find a better life, Kings cross being the station you arrive at when you come down the north line. Neil has even stated that this is what the song is about. (being a Geordie n' all) |
