I just LOVE this song! It's just plain fun. Something good to sing very loudly in your car driving down the highway in the summer. |

Who's the guy singing "I know where you go"? Does anyone know? I'm very curious, seeing as she's done a song with Regina Spektor, I'm wondering who else she's gotten. |

| Snow Patrol – Please Just Take These Photos From My Hands Lyrics

This song made me cry when I first heard it. For some reason, a reason that I know most people on here won't understand, this song made me think of my ordeal with cancer my senior year of HS last year. I don't know why.
But now this song is very close to my heart. It's so amazing. |

I used to be in dance classes, and this song makes me want to go back and choreograph. It's such an interesting beat.
It also reminds me of something The Shins would produce. I love it. |

For some reason, it makes me want to get up and travel the world. I can just imagine driving through a city with the windows open and music blasting and, well, living. |

| The Mountain Goats – Dilaudid Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
|
I've actually had dilaudid before. I was on chemo and steroids and oxycontin and had really, really, really, really, really bad leg and back pain, so they gave me dilaudid because the oxycontin wasn't working. It's about 5 times stronger than morphine, and I had like, 5 or 6 shots. But this song kind of sums up how you feel when you're on it. You bounce from subject to subject and while it makes sense in YOUR mind, everyone else around you doesn't quite get it. |

I LOVE this song; it's fairly obvious that it's about unrequited love, and he sends a good message. But he sings it so damn SOULFULLY which makes it 4573X better. |

Being in love with a girl who shows him just how damn WONDERFUL and AMAZING the world can be, in all the big and small things. Its a love song for both a girl and the world in which she lives.
I agreey with Cautionary. That sounds great. |

The message is definately don't be afraid to fail, but I can really relate to this. Just how he mentions being on the sea. . . I've gone through chemotherapy this year, and I hope to get to college to become a marine biologist, and really, its the little victories that get me through the day.
I LOVE Matt. I wish more people knew about him. |

Hahaha, I love this song. Just because I'm on so much medication with my chemotherapy, and I've been complaining of all the side effects and just the large number of them. So many damn pills. . . |

| Kelly Clarkson – Sober Lyrics
| 18 years ago

I know this song probably relates to breaking up with someone very, very special. But for me, it's about health. I can relate to it that way, anyway. About 3 months ago my disease got really hard to deal with, with the chemo and steroids. . . cheesy, I know, but it feels very strengthening to listen to it.
Dunno. Guess it just shows how different songs can have totally different meanings to different people. Still love this song. |

| Jon Mclaughlin – Beautiful Disaster Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
I find that lately, a lot of girls feel like they don't fit in, beauty-wise. They compare themselves to models, popular girls, and women who just plain aren't real. To be honest, I'd kill to look like one of those girls: those who don't see just how beautiful they are because they're themselves.
I was recently diagnosed with a form of cancer. Chemotherapy/an array of drugs and steroids has made me lose my hair, gain about 15 extra pounds and turned me into an emotional wreck.
This summer, right around the time I was diagnosed, a friend of mine who, that night, revealed to me that he had liked me for well over three years, told me I was a beautiful disaster---the disaster in reference to how much cancer has fucked me up.
I would do anything to be normal. I can relate to this so much. I WOULD change anything. I wish I could.
Oddly enough, after this boy compared me to that, he decided he didn't want me after all because he has a problem. I recently found out that this is a drinking problem. Now, every time I hear Kelly Clarkson's Beautiful Disaster, I can't help but think of him.
I just wish I was more of the beautiful and less of the disaster. |

| Biffy Clyro – Justboy Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
I do truly love this song, and while I do believe it's about a guy being in love with the girl, I think there's moer to why the girl doesn't want the guy. From the lines, it feels like she's given up, or is going through some sort of stress. Family problems, illness. Just the lines "I don't believe in anything, that's the message in your eyes" I feel refers to the girl, not the guy. If the girl doesn't believe in anything, she may not want the relationship.
Anyway. . . I don't know. That's kind of what I feel like now. I'm pretty sick, I want to give up, but I know a really sweet guy likes me and I've been kind of screwing things up. . . this song just feels relateble. |

This song just makes me think of suicide for some reason. Not in a (if this makes sense) depressing way. Maybe not suicide, but just being so unsure and uncertain of life that you just want to give up and let go. But then again, I could be totally wrong |

I have a chance of having cancer of the bone. I've been having some romantic troubles with one guy whom I would love to be with. He kissed me, and we haven't talked well since. I sense it's because of my cancer.
All I can think about when I hear this song is what could be running through his head.
Cancer scares are a bitch. |

I remember hanging out in my love's room, listening to this album. My head was on his chest, and we were just talking. Then this came on and he just sang it to me. Nothing much to anyone else, I think, but I remember it and I love it and it ties me to this song forever.
Perfect in every sense. |

Look, people, it truly doesn't matter exactly what is going on in the song, whether it's his daughter, himself, a lover or some stranger he's waiting for in that emergency room. The emergency room is just a backdrop to the stronger message I'm sure they were trying to portray, and almost all of you have said that message. "Love is watching someone die." Don't overanalyze the song. It's beautiful in those few words. Leave it be and love it. |

JOHN MAYER SPEAKS THE TRUTH. If anyone, and I"m going to guess that a lot of people have, has had a broken heart, that's exactly what's it's like. You wake up in a fog, and you think, "maybe they're still there", but then it kicks you in the head. You feel like you can't do anything with your broken heart |

| Snow Patrol – The Finish Line Lyrics
| 19 years ago

It's a great finish for this album. I think it's definately about death. I was going to say that, but I Thought it was stupid until I saw that someone else had the same idea. At first I thought it was about wanting death, but I'm not so sure. I think it's maybe about accepting death. Letting the warmth and the last lights of the earth engulf you. About seeing the ones you love and leaving something very precious to you; your home. I know it's probably not, but I get the sense of someone lying on their back in a river, staring up, feeling everything before they let go and go to heaven. Silly, I know, but this is just the image this beautiful song puts in my head.
Love love love it. |

Very bittersweet but joyous. The ending is . . . . indescribable. I love it very much. I think it's about a girl whom the singer is very much in love with; but maybe she's to afraid to see it. Too afraid to take the plunge in with him. She needs to. . open her eyes, I guess. |

This song would not be as beautiful without Martha Wainwright singing in it---especially in the chorus. The harmonies are drop dead gorgeous. This song is so, so perfect. It's eerie, yes. . . but in a fantastic way. |

I have two words for you. I think I know what this song is about. My stepfather changed my idea of it.

Flight 93.
Why else would he be thinking about if the plane goes down?
Listen to the song with that in mind. Even the MUSIC is amazingly clear with it. It just has to be about Flight 93 |

And, in the first verse, he mentions Pickeral Lake. I've been there. I've swam in it. In Northern Michigan. More reason I think it's about the town, not the mascot or X-man. |

Oh, sad, sad, sad. It's NOT from X-men and I doubt it's the mascot, although if I'm wrong, that's what I would guess it's about. There is a very very small town in Northern Michigan (where he's written a lot of songs about) called Wolverine. I've been there. The song fits the town.
I love Sufjan because I've been to every place he's described on the album. I love it. All the places are real places. Scary, huh? |
