| The Smiths – This Charming Man Lyrics | 14 years ago |

| The Smiths – This Charming Man Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I remember reading a slue of perverse French lit a while back, Bataille's 'Story of the Eye' etc and there was definitely a particular scene involving a kid on a some blustery coastal country road and fucking up his bike... he ended up at a mansion, i remember thinking 'oh, that smith's song... duh' but i can't remember what the story was | |

| The Helio Sequence – Hallelujah Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| i think you nailed it, i was walking down the street listening to this song and was overwhelmed by beauty/life etc. if think if i had to fit it into some man-made religious context, the experience would be cheapened and false... knowing this earthly life is all that's guaranteed makes every moment more precious and profound... and desperate | |

| Tilly and the Wall – Pot Kettle Black Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
the second time around i'm pretty sure she says "the church washes up to shore" which would connect more with 'stained-glass eyes' ref and would in general reinforce their lyrical dealings with religion / gender "God put down your gun" etc... |
