The Pink Spiders – Talk Hard Lyrics 18 years ago
Is this a referance to Pump Up The Volume?

Kill Hannah – The Chase Lyrics 18 years ago
I have the song...I got "I've got to see the stars" because there's another syllable there.

I've seen it written both ways, though, so either one of us could be right.

Kill Hannah – Kill Hannah Lyrics 18 years ago
alternate lyrics for Kill Hannah, from Hummingbirds...



don't look now,
the bit-part actors are waiting just to star
in the big dance hall where everybody falls oh yeah.
and how they got so tired,
but now so fucking wired.
-another crash, just reignite

or are we going to stop everything, kill Hannah
yeah we know it's all a game.
oh stop the world and kill Hannah
'cos in a plastic flower garden we're just some other plastic flowers.

Don't look now,
starring in the scene
of my young and modern pipe dream
with a raygun to a head that is about to scream
she says " well you're just too much in love."
well maybe I’m just too much in love.
Call the ambulance at once
4 3 2 1 stop everything

Kill Hannah – The Chase Lyrics 18 years ago
Those aren't exactly the lyrics....

WEAR holes through my brain


I've got to SEE THE STARS


We're the PHOENIX above the flame...

Other than that, it's a pretty straight forward song. I wish it'd had been on the album just so more people could hear it, but then, it wouldn't have really fit.

Seriously, WTF is he saying?
No one seems to have the lyrics anywhere, but there clearly IS lyrics.

Kill Hannah – All He Wants (American Jet Set) Lyrics 19 years ago
I don't think it's about Hannah (considering it came out four years after they broke up). But substitute another girl in, and I think you've got the gist of it.

Kill Hannah – Future Number One Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is about the need to succeed in the entertainment industry. Adoration only comes with being number one, and don't we all just want to be adored?
The lines like "the spark in our eyes is digitized" are saying how manufactured it all is - on the one hand, you want so hard to be on the top, but on the other hand once you're there it's all asthetics.
I also think he was being a little cheeky with the line "aren't we all ladies and gentlemen"

Kill Hannah – Agent Orange Skies Lyrics 19 years ago
It's funny that there's so many drug referances in KH stuff, since besides your standard boozing the guys aren't really into drugs.

Kill Hannah – Berlin After The Bombing Lyrics 19 years ago
I love this song so much, but I have no idea what the fuck he's going on about.

Really pretty imagery, though.

Kill Hannah – Love You To Death Lyrics 19 years ago
I've read/heard both in the same interview :P

On fuse he said it was about kidnapping etc, but he mentions the dream, and on the album commentary he talks soley about the dream and about pickslides.

Kill Hannah – Sick Boy Lyrics 19 years ago
Ok, let's just disregard that theory and pretend I never mentioned it.
Mat didn't even write A New Medicine.

According to Mat, this song is about loving a girl so much you kidnap her.

Kill Hannah – Scream Lyrics 19 years ago
This song seems like UTNLOU's "Unwanted".
Great musically, lyrically....it's a little iffy.

Kill Hannah – All He Wants (American Jet Set) Lyrics 19 years ago
After much deliberation, I've decided this is probably my favourite Kill Hannah song.
Actually, pretty much my favourite album.

Robots in Disguise – Turn It Up Lyrics 19 years ago
I think Nifty got the nail on the head.

Also, "Birdland" is the "Jazz Corner of the World"...I think it was Charlie Parkers Club?

Kill Hannah – The Songs That Saved My Life Lyrics 19 years ago
But don't forget the songs
That made you cry
And the songs that saved your life
-"Rubber Ring", The Smiths

I think this song is an answer to Morrisey's plea to remember the songs that helped you grow up, even if you've outgrown them; letting him know that he remembers.

I love listening to this song, but the lyrics aren't Mat's best effort.

Kill Hannah – Los Angeles Lyrics 19 years ago
Well, Mat did stay in Los Angeles for a bit while forming Kill Hannah, so maybe this is a reflection of that time in his life.

The Beatles – Revolution 9 Lyrics 20 years ago
That's a good theory, Labyrinth, but the number 9 was from some garbage recording one of the guys in the studio did to check the equipment (or something to that effect), and then they just looped it.

Kill Hannah – Raining All The Time Lyrics 20 years ago
This is the first song I ever heard by them...

I used to listen to the little amazon clip over and over during my web design class...I was addicted, and all I'd ever heard was thirty seconds.

Kill Hannah – Chloroform Lyrics 20 years ago
I love this song...

Everytime I hear it I picture some doomed relationship between to kids at a show...he wants her but misses his chance, she's waiting for him after the show but in the end's to shy to say anything...

Kill Hannah – Kennedy Lyrics 20 years ago
I think it just romantizes the Kennedy's as jet setters...Not so much that he wants to be a Kennedy in perticular, that he wants the power and mystique that comes with it...right up until he dies young.

Also, Waste-Of-Paint, don't get upset because someone heard a song and looked into it. It's not their fault that they heard a song somewhere and thought it was a girl singing because Mat has an effeminate voice...maybe they did look into Kill Hannah and saw a pic when Kerry was still in the band. Just be happy that they liked the song enough to post a comment about it.

Kill Hannah – No One Dreams Anyways Lyrics 20 years ago
The piano bit at the end is absolutely beautiful...but what else would you expect for Mr. Mat?

submissions
Kill Hannah – Sick Boy Lyrics 20 years ago
I think I read something where they were talking about the "curse" of Kill Hannah, asking what it was, and they said part of it was how they lost band members, including their drummer, who died (?).
When I read that, I remembered an review someone did on them, mentioning the hardships the band has gone through...including losing a member to drug abuse.

I don't know if those are actual facts, but I kinda put two and two together and figured that one of their old drummers (I know there's still an ex-drummer around somewhere) died of an over dose, and I tend to think that Sick Boy is him.

It's probably a bunch of bullshit, but I think this song and A New Medicine are based a little on him....but, unlike Just A Tragedy, I probably AM stupid.

The Beatles – Revolution 9 Lyrics 20 years ago
"this was another thing that proves the Beatles can do whatever they want"

I agree whole heartedly. I think a lot of the White Album was pushing the envelope, but since The Beatles were the first to do what they did, the letter box kept going.

Also, fun fact: when I had insomnia, I used to listen to this song nearly twenty four hours straight. I would mumble the words under my breath and just walk around aimlessly. Now, everytime I can't sleep I throw the White Album on until I can.

Kill Hannah – Kill Hannah Lyrics 20 years ago
one more thing, I know that there's a million versions of this song, but I think the first verse is wrong...I thought it was

"and she made such an entrance
one blink explodes the cinderblock
what a smart bomb she sighs, and says
"I hope I'm not forgettable"
And when you kiss ice
Sometimes it sticks to your lips
Sometimes I see battleships"

or something close to that.

Crowned King – One in a Million Lyrics 20 years ago
I think it's just saying that we can't help everyone...there's too many people who are starving or don't have a home or whatever, so even if you can help one, there's always going to be more who need it...

PS- I saw Crowned King a few days ago and holy fuck.

Kill Hannah – 10 More Minutes With You Lyrics 20 years ago
"Life was crap, then you came and made it so much better than it was, but now you have to leave. God, I'd give anything to have ten more minutes with you"

Basically, infatuation.

Kill Hannah – Kill Hannah Lyrics 20 years ago
nandecatur's right, Mat says Hannah so wierd, he pronounces both N's individually.

For those who don't know (ha!), Kill Hannah's name and song title is spawned from a turbulent relationship that lead singer Mat Devine had with a girl named Hannah. The ship ended badly, and in a fit of teen angst and musical talent, he wrote this song.
