Arcade Fire – In the Backseat Lyrics 21 years ago
when i first heard this song it was kinda late at night, the day i had gotten the cd and i figured i would give it a try. i zoned out for a lot of it but this song just caught my attention, because it was the girl singing or because it was at the end of the disc., i don't know.
you know those songs that just fit perfectly with the mood of a movie or something, the kind that just wanna make you cry or laugh or have fun along with the movie? this song can give you that feeling, without the movie itself. when it ended I was like "woah, what just happened??"
i agree that its about possibly loss of a family member, ut i thought it was more about coming of age, perhaps reluctantly gaining responsibility, but not shirking it because she doesnt care.
i have no real evidence for that, its just what i thought about the lyrics. when i first heard it. maybe just the fact that she says "I've been learning to drive" as if she has known that this was coming, and doesnt want to grow up or take on some certain position or responsibility, but knows that she will have to sometime soon, because suddenly the "leaves" of her family are falling; perhaps a kind of loss of innocence thing.
but its weird that the song itself makes me happy but its idea is so depressing...

The Appleseed Cast – Hanging Marionette Lyrics 21 years ago
i'm suprised no one has talked about this song... its actually one of my favorites...
loss of a friend, lonliness.. the meaning is kinda self-evident

"Because what I'm feeling inside
I'm troubled or maybe I'm blind
but I just can't see
how this is helping me ...."
it makes it very personal.
anyway, the chimes/piano runs or whatever they are after the lines
"Because I'm alone
I need someone to be my friend
But I can't take, anyone
who can't stay until the end"
... they just, somehow, hit me. I don't know exactly what's special about this song, but its pretty cool.

Statistics – 2AM Lyrics 21 years ago
so, is statistics really this unknown... that like, there's only one comment on any of the songs? well, I have to admit I love the music, but the lyrics aren't the best. thats probably why many/most of the songs on the cd are instrumental...
this song is awesome though.

Now It's Overhead – The Decision Made Itself Lyrics 21 years ago
woah, no comments on this one? def one my my favorites... awesome song to listen to in the car when you're movin real slowly in traffic... its on the mix i made for my road trip in CA. anyone have any ideas on what its talking about though? I actually like to think that its NOT about a relationship... just cause it means more to me that way... like, missed opportunities, maybe in love and life in general?

Badly Drawn Boy – The Shining Lyrics 21 years ago
i downloaded this song (legally off amazon.com) and fell in love with it... i think it either begins or ends most of the mixes that I have made since then, depening on my mood at the time. But its true that the lyrics get really repetitive really quickly., they could be better. but the music itself, on this song at least, is just like, "woah... where did that come from... " i would reccomend anyone that hasn't heard it to download it off of amazon and then buy the album, definitely.

The Appleseed Cast – Steps And Numbers Lyrics 21 years ago
this song is just, like, everything that is good about music - i feel sorry for anyone who doesn't own this album, if just for those days when you're angry at the world but really dont have the energy to deal with it...
