Busta Rhymes – Turn It Up Lyrics 20 years ago
A literal translation:

We sell drugs, everybody
Please relax and open your mind, everyone
Dance sexually with your entire posterior until you twist your waistline
You all know the time
Hello, can you feel the bass line?
Make a lot of money
And dance, feel the bassline
So consistently genuine, Busta redefines.
The good people know what is happening
And it causes you to rewind (the song)
I hope you are feeling alright.
Watch me combine and intertwine
The song we are playing makes you act against the rules
We think nothing of
Many different kinds of villain
And react like an angry porcupine
If you try to take what's mine. (note subjective disagreement we\mine)
Pick up my black person's drug-taking paraphenelia
In a specified location
The car is tan and has blue head rests
Let us hurry, there is no time to contemplate further
We use many words and have the right rhythm and the flow has finesse
We have many publications spreading love and happinesses
The song is so fantastic that DJs scratch even our tests of it
And we can make it even better

Chorus:

Turn it up, I want to hear it a high volume, just
Turn it up, so we can enjoy it in the attic, baby
Turn it up, we need to remove the roof, so just
Turn it up, I need to raise the temperature, baby

Verse 2:

Hello. What is going on is a secret.
Let's have sex.
I never say that incorrectly.
Please take off your underwear
And I'll put an unspecified object in your spirit like the holy Kyron
I have a most excellent song
It is sweet like honey chicken dijon.
Onto the next thing,
Your body looks very strong
I am watching your buttocks swing
And hanging like a medallion
Exercise, please, let me see you take up a large area of floor
What are you asking for?
Relax, for I am about to give you some more.
Where is the off-license?
I will create some metaphors for you to hear.
The unperverted, good, very good stuff, you've not seen it before
Hit the floor at speed, on your mark, get set, we will soon leave
Light it quickly, chickens are breaking their necks
Hello. We play to win
It's a shame, since this is a sin.
The temperature is high, it bubbles within your skin
Everytime I perform or speak
I caress the whole beach
Just like a bodyguard called Les walks straight down the street
We enjoy it

Chorus

Hello. Come on, just feel my temperature.
Many attractive women are ready for black people who act bravely
Relax, male friend, you're better off if you try to behave
And spend money while those without are trying to save
Be inconspicuous, I say so, my currency
Is bought in on a stack of cheese by the castros
Make clothes
Or stay fashionable and chase prostitutes
Equally soft lips and a straight nose
Making money
When we perform the paid show
We get the money and leave, in a Range Rover
Now we are making thousands
And we name brands
We make plans, change plans
Then we expand across land
Do it properly
Hello, I said open sesame
The recipe is a very good song. It's got to be.
Hello, landscape.
We arrange an entire shape
And record a fashionable record
Then I continue to scrape the sky
Like blah!!!!!!!!(?)
So good

Chorus

Manic Street Preachers – Motorcycle Emptiness Lyrics 20 years ago
My interpretation is that no matter how much you buy, you can't buy happiness. "Motorcycle emptiness" reminds me of the feeling you can get on a motorbike, like everything's passing around you and you're just sitting there. It's a bit like the book Zen and the Art of Motorycle Maintenance describes - you can retreat into your innermost thoughts while the world whizzes by, part of it yet detatched from it.

Manic Street Preachers – Nat West-Barclays-Midlands-Lloyds Lyrics 20 years ago
The black horse refers to the logo of one of the banks - I'm pretty sure it's Lloyds TSB.

The Smiths – Cemetry Gates Lyrics 20 years ago
I think it's a contrast between the big romantic poets, Keats and Yates, and Wilde, the king of wit. The person he's going to the cemetery with is romantic and charming, but Morrissey is witty and his romance isn't always perfect - see Unhappy Birthday or Girlfriend in a Coma. Therefore, while Keats and Yates are on their side with their blind and poetic romance, Wilde is on his making witty observations.
