Dead Boys – Sonic Reducer Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about making music. A sonic reducer is a person who makes stripped down punk rock music. His 'devil machine' is his electric guitar, and his 'electronic dream' is the music he dreams and wants to play. That's how he'll become like a pharoah, and ten feet tall - he'll be up on stage, playing music, he will have all the power, and the attention. HE AINT NO LOSER BABY.

Dead Boys – I Need Lunch Lyrics 19 years ago
Lydia Lunch said the dead boys wrote this song about her.
She did seem to have some sor tof relationshhip with Stiv bators..he knew who she was, and she would throw her used tampons at him while he was performing and he would either eat them, or realistically pretend to...
Can anyone confirm if this was inspired by Lydia Lunch?

The Microphones – I Want To Be Cold Lyrics 19 years ago
On the "Blood" album, there's a different version of 'I Want to be Cold.'

At the end, instead of
'I just want to be cold
I don't want you to know"

He sings:

"And now you'll never know,
What a huge thing I had to offer you."

The Blood version is alot more revealing, and honest. Also a little arrogant, I guess. I mean, the guys dick can't be that big.

Sonic Youth – In The Kingdom #19 Lyrics 20 years ago
This song is about a man who hits an animal on his motorcycle, and as a result crashes. As he lays dying, another man arrives on the gory scene ("some guy there kneeling in the blinded mirage of white light)". The new man, brushes out the ember on his grimy coatsleeve, picks up the animal, and "he strode of into the woods with the animal." The man saves the animal, not the motorcyclist. He goes off into the wilderness, and never looks back. The motorcyclist is left to die, and he does.

FUN FACT at around 55 seconds into the song, Thurston throws a bunch of loud fiery firecrackers into the recording booth where Lee is recording the song. You can totally hear it! What's best, it's at the perfect time for the song, right at the crash!

Sonic Youth – (She's in a) Bad Mood Lyrics 20 years ago
A great way to kick off an album like Confusion is Sex, I love this song. Lee is banging strings with a drumstick in 4/4 time and Thruston is smacking a fucking cowbell against his guitar neck, all while Kim drooones bass E notes and tapes play wierd whirly noises around the drums..I don't know, I'm no musician, but this song is wild and percussive and dirty. It makes my Mom "anxious." I love it.

Sonic Youth – I'm Insane Lyrics 20 years ago
naw man this song is made up of backcover descriptions and titles of cheap pulp fiction novels. It shows some of them in the linear notes for "Bad Moon Rising," check it out: http://www.sonicyouth.com/history/og-set.html. Or exactly: http://www.sonicyouth.com/mustang/lp/lp03s.jpg.

I think it's "I'm still flesh, I hold onto 'awful' feelings."

Björk – Unravel Lyrics 21 years ago
I think that this song means:
there are two people in love, but when they separate for awhile, the love they feel for each other starts to unravel, dissapear, and they become estranged due to the seperation. This has actually happened to me before. If you love someone, but lose contact with them for awhile, you become weird strangers. So I think the devil is just the force that takes the love, that is where the love dissapears to. And the devil in my case would be, human nature, how you react to someone you used to know but havent seen or spoke to in awhile. It's always awkward. Anyway, that love will never be returned, it's gone, lost to time, so you have to make new love.

Basically, relationships decay if there is no contact with the partner.

The Microphones – I Felt Your Shape Lyrics 21 years ago
uh note about the last comment: its not like a limp noodle hug, i just kind of softly adhere my arms to the shape of the person. (I felt your shape).

The Microphones – I Felt Your Shape Lyrics 21 years ago
I think this song is is about hugging a girl. At first he hugs her and all he feels is falsely strong, cause all he feels is the strength of himself hugging her. But then he hugs her loosely, he just drapes his relaxed arms around her, and he can suddenly feel not only her shape, but her lava flows, gusty blows, all that is inside her. Then, later on at home, he remembers the touch of the hug (you ever have touch memory, where you can still feel whatever touched you?) and he feels warm, and he even feels her presence. This is a literal interpretation, you could probably go deeper. Also, ever since this song, I've tried hugging people loosely with my arms just draped around people, eyes open, Not 'squeezing.' It's worked out pretty well, espicially with girls (im a guy). Its like a really intimite hug were you feel the person, not the hug you're giving. I've gotten positive responses back from the girls as well, so go out and try it!

The Microphones – I Want Wind To Blow Lyrics 21 years ago
If you listen to the song "Phil Elvrum's will," at the end, he says "I want wind" and strums the first few chords for this song, a little differently. Also, in the beginning of "The Sun" on the Mt. Eerie album, I want Wind to Blow is playing (or being played) faintly in the background.

I love it when artists have common threads and recurring concepts/ideas evident throughout their art. It's like, the ideas gain special significance through their repition. Also, seeing the same idea in a different context, or song, gives it a fresh perspective.

It seems the I want wind to blow concept is an idyllic one, because that's what phil, well, wants. It's used here as an preferred atmosphere over the city, but it might mean death, because he mentions it as one of the things he wants when dead, in "Phil elvrums will." Also, "the Sun" is described as "in which the stroy begins, where you are born and run away from death up the mountain in fear and are watched by a ball of fire." The blowing wind, a.k.a. this song in the intro of "the sun" might be the feeling of death he speaks of running away from.

One more thing. In this song, he says "Sweep me off my feet
Take me up and bring me back
Oh, where I can see the waves pass by me."

In "phil elvrum's will," he says, speaking of his friends: "and go all the time to the beach to picture my face."
Therefore, I think this song is about death.
