| Grand Archives – George Kaminski Lyrics | 17 years ago |

So nice of them to publish their lyrics and remove all doubt! I love this song, both versions! Great concept to honor the guy who once held record for his 4-leaf clover collection ... while in prison. Can't say how well his luck held out, since an Alaskan guy broke the record later. |

| I love both versions, tho' the newer one took awhile to grow on me. Love the title! | |
| Fleet Foxes – Oliver James Lyrics | 17 years ago |

... walk with me down Ruby beach? It's a famous remote coastal beach in Washington state. Sad song and hauntingly beautiful. At first I thought it was just about disappointment, but it's clearly about a drowning, having peered into the lyrics. Great band! |

| Pixies – Caribou Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
Yay Pixies are back again! I thought Kim Deal wrote Caribou, but that seems in question. The first lines are simple enough for Kims earth mama pleading vocals to grasp, but the later "knife" references are probably where, Black - as previously noted - often ad-libs lyrices into the tune, where he "intuits" a phrase - seems out of place. Unless ... suicide is the means to obtain that "transmigration of Soul" into the wide roaming, teeming free thundering herds of Caribou. Dirt. I will get what I want. Otherwise its a simple yearning for me, to escape this street. I live cement. BTW "Teen Spirit" was supposedly modeled after "Gouge Away"! |
