hurm. well i love bnl. i like how they can take simple seemingly nonsense lyrics and yet they still have some meaning. maybe im reading way too much into it, but perhaps its about how some people only give you superficial crap and dont mean anything. maybe? |

i really like this song because it illustrates how sometimes what isnt said is just as worse as wat is said...believe me, all the times ive fucked up in my ralationships its because i leave something out. this song shows me also about a guy who has lost his sweetheart (as my grandma would say) and wants to get her back now. he cant really even believe that the disaster happened anyways. hes trying not to be angry anymore and he knows she'll need him one day, plus she challanges him (which can be good), so why not get back togerher?? "if its tonight...let me know" bleh. if only all guys would just talk to us girls when you want us to know something! |

sigh... sex really does confuse relationships. obviously this guy who used to feel like he knew everything, now questions even the simpliest things because a girl shook him to his core....err his stick ;) neways, they've broken up (probly because he let the sex get in the way of understnading her and being sweet to her...its true, guys think with their dicks sometimes) still, he misses her,and he even admits that he misses the sex (as theforbiddenpoet says, damien mentinos lots of stuff most of us would NEVER actually say) face it boys, yall live it. |

damien rice struck me as a deeply religious musician. i havent really researched so i dont know for sure, but i know what it is to be in a relationship with someone and so helpless in love that you have to call upon the lord all the time to maintiain sanity. |

Shakespear's play was called Othello. the movie was O. honesly, didnt yall pay ne attention in class. i mean my state is like 50th in education (yhea i live in the south...)but i knew what the proper names were. as to the connection, perhaps. Othello, in my opinion, was too racist and disturbing for me to enjoy, meanwhile i LOVE the album O...so id rather not compair :) |

the vibe im gettin from this song is similar to ones im getting from a few of his others. its that sometimes girls get so caught up themselves and getting people to like them that they close themselves up and dont let anyone in. bleh. i hate how howie points out my flaws. i am this girl! |

the real question is who hasnt this song applied to? most def. its a relationship ending, but its sounds like he misses her (or even this makes me think of a backstabbing bestfriend, personally :) but neways, he misses her and in moments of weakness secretly wants to be together again(notice how frail and high his voice is in the chours), but knows better when hes being realistic (like his voice is deeper than the chourous). |

i think hes sick of some girls who always seems to put on a face. never really true with him. theres nothing worse than a someone whos fake. and its hard to be whateverone else wants you to be all the time. it makes you tired, i know, ive been there. but these days i see that the only one i have to prove myself to is God and myself. hazel, i dont know you but perhaps u need to be more real? |

ive been trying to read this song for a while, all ive gotten is that he has ambivilent (score, english teacher would be so proud) about this girl. i think he thinks shes selfish "i’m living every moment for you" yet he loves her so much too. further more, he just wants to chillax this afternoon. he doesnt want everyday to be a disco. the important thing is this though: he is really really cute! :) |

well obviously this is a hopeful song about heaven or some form thereof. i think its significant that it is towards the end of her CD, espcialy since some of the other songs on it are a little less than optimistic |

well the allusions to the fall of man (im sure most of us have seen brad in that adorable leather skirt in troy) are obvious. heres the readers digest verision (mythology is so entwined, there will always be a lot not said) neways, paris was in a field and three godesses came and made him pick who was the most beautiful. they were fighting over a golden apple that was to be given to the prettiest hoe in the clouds. he picked the godess who said she'd give him a sexy wife (typical guy right?) well taht caused some wars and it was all downhill from there. i think the rest of the song is commenting on moral decay of our world. so many other allusions are made, im sure someone else would like to comment on them :) |

hurm. thankyou toolboy for the deep insight on the lines pretaing to ophelia. but waht about the other parts of the song? im thinking that they are speaking of the power of imagination. one can be all alone yet have the best of adventure. perhaps ophelia (with all her supression) was forced to be alone and lacking adventure, she makes it up.
Ophelia's mind went wandering
You'd wonder where she'd gone
Through secret doors down corridors
She wanders them alone
All alone |

this song kinda goes along with some other songs of hers. they all talk about how sometimes you arent who you really are. put on a show. whats more, is people like to burn you. they will tear you down no matter if you are yourself or not. |
