Ryan Adams – To Be the One Lyrics | 19 years ago |
" well the pills i got they ask me, 'let's go out for awhile' and the knives up in the kitchen are all too dull to smile and the sun, it tries to warn me, 'boy those wings are made of wax' while the things i do kill me they just tell me to relax" One of my favorite parts of the album. Great stuff. |
Wilco – Hell Is Chrome Lyrics | 19 years ago |
To me this song is about the record labels and how misleading everything can be when an artist first gets into a record deal. The devil being an executive in a suit, hence the chrome reference. Clean and neat looking. He went where everything is clean and towering to the top of one of the big buildings these companies are in. They helped him in every way and made him felt like he belonged there. Made him feel no fear. I just always took it as a reference going back to the Reprise dropping, but to each his own. |

Wilco – Misunderstood Lyrics | 19 years ago |
i just wanted to mention that the first "Do you still love rock and roll?" should be "If you still love rock and roll." and then towards the end he says "I know you've got a God shaped hole, bleeding out your heart full of soul." Favorite Wilco song. This and Sunkin Treasure were really the turning point from the alt country. Very powerful, great stuff. |
