James Blunt – You're Beautiful Lyrics 19 years ago
All dissing and counterdissing aside, this song is incredible (and awful) for ppl who have been through bad breakups. Kudos to you if you haven't had the experience, but I unfortunately could tell straight off the bat it was about meeting a past significant other randomly on the street. That glimpse -- of him/her with another person -- can be heartbreaking.

Spoon – I Turn My Camera On Lyrics 19 years ago
Introverted peeping tom/stalker, either started out that way or became one because a woman turned him down (badly).

This has completely made the new Jaguar commercial a hit. I hope Spoon got a ton of money for that ad... they're worth it!

Tori Amos – Merman Lyrics 20 years ago
I listen to this song when I want to cry but the tears won't come. Tori is right -- love can be dangerous. I think we all walk that thin line between death and life. And when we get tipped the wrong way it hurts. So I listen to her sing

who could ever say you're not simply wonderful
who could ever harm you
sleep now
you're my little girl

and it lets me cry when the tears won't come.

The Servant – Cells Lyrics 21 years ago
Fantastic song. I can't believe this is their first full-length album. I thought the instrumental version was better first (having heard it on Sin City trailer like everyone else) but the song version just grows on you. "On the city's skin they move en masse/like a rash on the back of a mangy cat" ... I love the lyrics.
