MGMT – Flash Delirium Lyrics 15 years ago
Plants
as far as i know are still,
still bending toward the light
and if we dance
until the heart explodes
it'll make this place ignite
and even if this hall collapses
I can stand by my pillar of hope it's just
a case of Flash delirium (this part sounds like searching for a hope when they sing)

to me it means, like everything is so corrupt or abnormal, or insane, or all three,
you just search something normal, something real to hold on. Something to base your reality.
you think, at least the plants, if not changed when u were not looking, are still bending towards the light (to the good, to the real, to the rational, to the life, like they are supposed to do, which is sane), so it gives u hope that there's a path of normal. you have this hope inside somewhere that there's something to hold. also in the lyrics, it gives another idea that "you can't get a grip if there's nothing to hold." it's about feelings that u have difficulty to carry. being in difficulty to carry the sanity. at least the hope of sanity. everything is so much like a delirium, without approprite orientation to what's happening in reality. everything is done just to "show" it. and here some sense tells u to use your hearts for sake, at least we will ignite this place to get rid of this inhuman insanity.

and the machine entry although it looks like a vagina or something, in a scene it also looks like the iris part of the eye. (inside u can see the brain?) so maybe the flashes blinding us, causing a delirium? just one guess.

you say "I've got the backbone"
back way to escape the gun.. really touches me. donno exactly why. but i think its about people who are senselessly proud about shitty things.

"zero tears in their eyes" is how we lose track of what is really happening. we just do it, or watch it without appropriate feelings.

nice nice tune.

IAMX – An I For An I Lyrics 16 years ago
today chris has written to the myspace blog as follows:

"D.I.Y TRIBES AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE CORPORATE
MOST PEOPLE ARE LAZY AND TALK WITHOUT DOING.
PARTICULARLY MUSICIANS. I AM HOPEFUL THE INDEPENDENT D.I.Y CULTURE THAT HAS BEEN OPENED UP BY THE INTERNET CAN BE ONE OF THE SAVING GRACES OF HUMAN AND ARTISTIC LETHARGY.
I FEEL THAT, IN THESE INSPIRING BUT WORRYING TIMES, WE HAVE A CHANCE TO CLEANSE AND REINVENT OURSELVES. WE, AS LAZY ARTIST HUMAN FUCKERS MUST BE DRIVEN BY A WILL TO THINK HARDER AND DIVERSIFY. TO REVEL IN THE DIFFICULTY AND CHAOS OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AND LIFE IN GENERAL.
BEING IN THIS UNIQUE MOMENT IN HISTORY OF INSANE TECHNOLOGY, I SEE A BRAIN EXPLODING WORLD OF ENDLESS CREATIVE AND GUERRILLA POSSIBILITY. THE MUSIC, THE ARTIST, THE AUDIENCE ALL BECOMING INTERTWINED IN A SWEATY HYPERACTIVE TRIBE. A MORE HONEST AND SYMBIOTIC SYSTEM THAN THE ANTIQUATED MONSTER COLLAPSING AROUND US AS WE SPEAK.
YOU WILL NOT BE POISONED AND SOLD SHIT THAT YOU CAN'T BARE TO HEAR AND WE CAN EXPERIMENT, BE SELF INDULGENT AND FEED OUR FRAGILE EGOS FOREVER AND EVER. UTOPIA.

I THINK I KNOW YOU. I THINK, LIKE ME, YOUR PATIENCE HAS BEEN TRIED LONG ENOUGH. I THINK YOU CAN'T STAND TO WATCH ANOTHER PATHETIC DISPLAY OF TV REALITY OR CNN LIES OR MIND NUMBING BANALITY. OF ABUSIVE ADVERTISING, OF DISTURBING POLITICAL OR RELIGIOUS MANIPULATION.
THE MEDIA, THE CHURCHES AND THE BANKS CONTROL THE WORLD, BUT THE INTERNET CAN SAVE US. IT IS GIGANTIC FREE OPEN INFORMATION.
LEARN MORE. ACCELERATE YOUR AWARENESS OF THIS RIDICULOUS SITUATION WE LIVE IN.
I AM NOT PARTICULARLY BOTHERED ABOUT SAVING MOST OF THE PLANETS' PEOPLE-DISEASE BUT I DO HAVE THE HEART FOR SOME OF THE BEST ONES. I KNOW THERE IS GOOD AND GREATNESS OUT THERE. I SEE IT IN YOU.
IF THE INCREDIBLE POWERS OF ART AND NATURE AND ALL THINGS BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL ARE TO PREVAIL IT WILL BE THROUGH THE CUNNING AND STRENGTH OF THE FEW TRIBES THAT, LIKE OURS, ACTUALLY GIVE A FUCK ABOUT BEING ALIVE AND NOT MONEY NOR POWER NOR PETTY IGNORANCE AND UNPROVABLE FAITH TIME WASTING.
THE WORLD IS BECOMING FLAT AGAIN.
IF YOU'RE NOT WITH US YOU'RE AGAINST."

Radiohead – The Gloaming. (Softly Open Our Mouths in the Cold.) Lyrics 19 years ago
I love its album version too

the part when he says when the walls bend with your breathin,

the feeling to me is when you're in a room or somewhere like that, and the air in the room is so depressing, and isolated, and you feel bounded somehow, it will feel like you are trapped in. Kinda claustrophobic. So much that walls bend when you breathe in. it is so in your mind. Like there's no air left. No air from outside.

and kind of the creativity block maybe. or an emotional block. or when u feel the world is all coming on you, weighing over you..

I can relate best to this song when I'm in a depressive mood, and I want to explode, I'm the reason why the alarms should be ringing.

:) though its obvious it has political meaning too. I agree with Thom. This is the gloaming. When you kill&use&abuse people that are innocent, it will bring the bad. It will let the nightly creatures out of their dens.

And the way the world is going, it will be the gloaming. If noone cares..

I like the hardness of the song. And the "hitting" kinda feeling of the rhytms. hitting and bouncing back. like to a wall.

And the frenzy feeling.

I also liked all the above comments.

Thom Yorke – The Eraser Lyrics 19 years ago
I felt very sad listening to the song but I couldn't give it some solid meaning. eaten by the worms, thank you so much, I realized why it was. Its a love song. I cant believe thom can write love songs still, he's married, not to mention.

why my fairytale arab princess?
because she's so impossible to be real?
or so beautiful for him?
I love to search context in his songs.

as you say this song sounds like a sequel.

one love

but its so sad in a way. I feel to be a part of this. And I always criticize my behaviour and I feel like I might end up in this song. You know, I really feel sad for whatever thing is making him sad.

I feel I'm wrong.
Always...
that's why I seek for all the comments on songs. I want to understand them, see them from all people's eyes. I'm so afraid of not understanding him, or misunderstanding. And all the comments are wonderful anyways. I want to thank everybody on this site.You are generous people.

global warming. Thats really a scary&funny thing. A lurking monster. Like we've been lenghtening the human life spam and what for? to live in a radiation-hell landfill?? to destroy ourselves and our race with bombs? We save an embryo ethically to kill hundreds of children without a doubt in wars?? I'd say don't be funny but its far beyond any fun now. Its the final human tragedy. Its called "I dont know what to do" tragedy. we are just watching, while thom's singing, telling.

I hope there was some solution to all this
and
why not?

I dont want no future children to make wars for a glass of pure drinking water. Isn't it the same? 1 more litre of petroleum. 1 more piece of land under control. So inhuman. So unimaginably evil. For a short short life.

love is life. I feel so. there's no magic erasers for the errors we make continuously to the environment.
there probably isn't a substitute planet that we'll use up. And we should care for the ones we love while we're still alive.

Radiohead – Hunting Bears Lyrics 19 years ago
The tunes going to the stable, frightening in a way, windy feeling. Bears? I see bears fighting to themselves. Like a bear fight. But I'm supposed to be in this picture (am i?) Am I hunting bears? It's like facing the bear inside you. Cleaning you from your bears. I'm hunting my bears and going on. Cleaned. Calm. Charged. Decharged.

Placebo – Song To Say Goodbye Lyrics 20 years ago
I dont know much about placebo but may be its about being gay?? i dont know , but certainly has some relations to drugs.
When i first saw the video I could'nt exactly get the lyrics and i thought that it was like putting oneself as a parent to the place of one's child, second watch i thought that it was about the insecure adult of the twentyfirst century, and now what others mean is sensible but still i can't fully relate to the video.
Lucky sevens, it means lucky , as an idiom but does it have a different meaning too, maybe they can relate, i dont know...
I love the tune of the song, its the classical edge of the soul feeling of placebo, i likeed it from the first time...
Enjoy it...

I guess that the headshrinkers is the people like trying to learn everything about thom, like the media or crazy fans, just an instant idea.

And headshrink may mean making stupid :S

And the lung is iron so that it wont be harmed, perhaps...

Its a confusing song, but I love it too.
Its more rock

the bends completely is wonderful. I love whatever they do, I feel love and care for whatever they do:)

The Police – Every Breath You Take Lyrics 20 years ago
agree with "pakana sielu".
Other comments all seem a bit freaky. I would never write a song about a government like that!
I also think it's about love which is unfortunately wasted, as you can't be with her/him but you still love.
I don't know if anyone of you ever lived no no, sure you did, imagine you are broken up with the one you love, but you have to see him/her in daily life, like in school or work or on the street... Even if you force yourself not to, you always find yourself watching every move he/she makes simply because you're still in love.

Radiohead – You Lyrics 20 years ago
I loved this song. Amazing.
To me it means like, he is totally "attracted" to the girl, and obsessed with.(sun, moon, stars) The girl thinks about "the meaning of life" maybe and such chaotic things and he thinks maybe her ideas are correct, why should I beleive myself not her? But he can't be totally sure. (Are you?) He thinks the wolrd is gonna end soon so he gives up thinking, and his ideas. He's so much in love with the girl, he's in fire. Reminds me of passion. So they're in fire, but he can't be stable, he's still not so sure if he's at correct time, correct place.( He's questioning his feelings, thoughts) From the music, I get some "you rock me" feeling, the passion more dominant.

Oasis – The Importance Of Being Idle Lyrics 20 years ago
this song is about guys(all the male being), and their laziness; the huge inertia... :)
I looove this song, its so eloquent...
Of course girls can be lazy too but this is what I observe as a girl being.
While I listen to this song I miss being a boy :) I adore boys' way of looking to life, I sometimes desire to be one, in the soul.
When I listen to this song I think world is a more joyful place, I envy u boys, I think its in your nature...
I have a more dominant depressed feeling most of the time.

I think this song sounds fabulous too, somewhat like one for a musical.

And I love the lines:
"If you give me a minute
A man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it".............just perfect

Oasis – Part of the Queue Lyrics 20 years ago
I think there's a "I dont belong here" feeling and me too I try to find my soul in the city but it seems to be somewhere else. The city can be very depressing and affecting to me sometimes. Weird but I can't get used to my own city even though I've lived here forever. And I also search a soul in the city, that's what I do while the long walks, wandering around alone, sitting and watching the passers by in a park, on the bus, in a shop, .... Sometimes I catch a little glimpse but it generally ends up in frustration. So to me this song helps me express the undirectable anger and frustration to my city, where's the soul in it?
I think I don't belong to my city, I'll keep serching.

I need somewhere like this maybe:)

Coldplay – Fix You Lyrics 20 years ago
The song is real good, especially the lyrics but the melody in the "lights will..." part is great. To use "fix you" for someone, someone you love, I think it's so lovely... Even though I don't fully understand that part, I can get the feeling behind that. And I think it's really original. Ever anyone of you thought of "fixing" the loved one with a broken heart or soul?
I think that's childishly, innocently, softly; perfect.
Such break can occur when loving someone that breaks your heart by purpose, again and again, you can't take the equal love you give; in fact what u get is all negative. You have no left energy or hope to fix yourself but, this can be made by someone loving you, by love. Fixing with the love... Feeling you're worth the love...

Coldplay – Speed of Sound Lyrics 20 years ago
First of all when I first listened to this song , as usual, I didn't understand the lyrics completely and made up a little bit myself. It sounded like a love song to me rather than a "finding yourself and truth" song, still now what 'bonar' says sounds correct in a way, and a creative way to look through.
In a way of love song I thought it would mean somethin like when you love someone, you are not sure of it, but you feel some kind of attraction, you're a little shy to him/her, you doubt telling the feelings to and inviting him/her to accompany your way. You are afraid of messing things up by saying sthg like that ; still you need to seize the chance, to know wht's going to happen and to have the chance to make the best thing to happen in your life. There are things that are puzzling your mind, forcing you taking a step backward. To deal with them you should have a beginning point that you completely and unconditionally believe. That thing is like a moment's feeling, like a glance of sthg, something that u feel the first and everytime that u see him/her. Something that's subconscious, that you can't tell exactly what it is, that making you real impatient in a way to spend your entire life with him/her(how long...). The hard thing is how to tell your real complex feelings in a world that words go flying in the speed of sound. You wish him/her to understand the way u feel someway, like how u realize your love within.
This is wht I took from this song. I’m not a coldplay fan however I liked this song the first time I heard it. And the simple tunes in some coldplay songs; I think it resembles the feeling about the song , like how you record the events to your memory. Some simple tune sounds enough to make people understand how u feel. A correlation with an idea/event/feeling that you recorded to your brain.

Oasis – Wonderwall Lyrics 21 years ago
I don't know much of oasis but this song. I really like this song. But I feel that it indirectly imposes the idea that everyone should have a wonderwall, I become sad when I don't have smo. to say my "wonderwall"...

And the part that says:
"Back beat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is
out...."

I always sing it wrong by purpose, as I first thought it to be:

"....the world is on your feet and the fire in your heart is out..."

Because many times I need to walk and walk and walk til the fire in my heart is out:)
Somehow this version expresses me better.

Nirvana – Smells Like Teen Spirit Lyrics 21 years ago
I think that
"Here we are now, entertain us" points out the fact that it's becoming an entertainment world where people only care about it and can be satisfied less day by day.
"She's overbored...." telling about a girl which can't even be excited (with ordinary entertainment) and the youth is trying to find sthg that makes them smile even if it's crazy and immoral. Life seems a bit nonsense from that point.
Just an idea...

Muse – Sunburn Lyrics 21 years ago
The piano melody is amazing
The first time I heard this I paid no attention to lyrics and it sounded like rain tune; raindrops gently hurrying down some slope and going through holes and channels and washing everything it touches... Kids running in the rain, mud, rain dripping from your nose and allover your hair, your skin cool, your soul being washed, cleaned...:) And still sthg is sad, like remembering old days or being lonely...
I love this song without lyrics.
It has a very nice atmosphere.

Travis – Love Will Come Through Lyrics 21 years ago
This song reminds me a situation that you are burning with love feel that he's the only one, and you can't tell him that you love him. You know that if you tell it; evrything will be harder for you for him and for some other people.

If I told you a secret
You won't tell a soul
Will you hold it and
Keep it alive

I felt that this was a secret of "I love you"

But this can also be for the family, why not.

And if it's for a love, I'm sure that this love also includes strong friendship too.

The music and the video is magical. I love this song which I feel that fully expresses how I feel.

Radiohead – Street Spirit (Fade Out) Lyrics 21 years ago
I think this song reminds me of religion, love and mostly the endless circle that we're serving ourselves. We are so desperate little creatures and there's one way out of this circle. Only way... Through the means of God. I'm not out of this cycle but that's my theory. To get out you should have a bigger love than yourself, divine love. But you never believe enough to succeed it. And one certainly needs help throughout this way. We're on our way to destruction of whole universe, according to my religion we had the last prophet. No more people left alive to help us directly but only God and the souls of that people can help us. We should believe that we can love and work for it.
Still I love this song, I can guess why Thom disclaims writing it himself because it's expressing the soul of the universe, the subconscious of the universe. He and all people can always feel it, it's the music of the universe. Hope I can break this cycle and others can manage it too. I love this song. Perfect expression. The least feeling of love put in our hearts will be enogh for us to be sure that there's a way out, this feeling is the proof that we can survive and we deserve to.

Franz Ferdinand – Michael Lyrics 21 years ago
Song is great but what is the aim of it, which point will it lead people to? As a girl myself, I'm not disturbed and I understand why it bothers boys, but it think it describes how people's tendencies change. But certainly it needs a stimulus, so it means people are changing too. What is changing us? What or who makes us look sexy to our own gender? And think... maybe there's someone seeing you like this, maybe this song will help him express his thoughts:)

Travis – The Beautiful Occupation Lyrics 21 years ago
First I hadn't understood it at all; but I liked it, like the one above. But you really need a clue how to look at this song if you want to understand what it means. Their web site helped me though.
But to look from a different point of view doesn'it also remind you our "beautiful" occupation in people's lives as friends or someone you know? I think that knowing a person, (meeting the first time), putting him/her into your inner world is something that changes you forever. Sometimes people make beautiful occupations into others' lives.
Without a permission, enters your life and changes you forever... Do you ever feel it?
