| Nickel Creek – Can't Complain Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
anyone ever seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? the message of this song kinda reminds me of the final conversation between Joel and Clementine in the hallway. it's about the joy and pain, resolution and confusion, and all the other paradoxical things involved in a relationship. the song (like the movie) is just saying that there are things that you agree to put up with if you want to have that experience of being close to someone. even though they know it'll likely end in pain and bitterness, they both "can't complain" because what they shared was worth it. love, like everything, doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful. |

| Chris Thile – Heart in a Cage Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I've listened to the original Strokes song, and it takes vision to adapt it to bluegrass instruments. Plus talent to play it. I love this version. | |
| Chris Thile – Stay Away Lyrics | 18 years ago |

i saw him live on his how to grow a band tour and it was by far the best concert i've ever been to. if you ever get the chance to see him live, do. this song in particular was incredible live. literally took my breath away. you don't quite get the whole effect on the cd, but this song has some crazy emotion going on. fantastic. |

| Radiohead – Idioteque Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Not to suggest that this is the meaning of Idioteque, but does this song bring the movie "The Day After Tomorrow" to anyone else's mind? I agree with those of you who've said that there is more personal meaning for the listener in the song itself than literal interpretation in the lyrics. For me, this song questions the "progress" made by our technology (the working and squirking mobiles). It is a fear that we have created things that can bring about an ice age, force us into bunkers; things that can destroy us. how will we choose who gets to survive (who's in a bunker?)- the women and children first. i really don't know. i won't insult radiohead's brilliancy by claiming i do. |
