Kelly Clarkson – Don't Lyrics 20 years ago
She meant Breakaway, I think...

and it's a song about a love that will never be, she's in love with a friend, but he doesn't see this, he just carries on as normal, oblivious to her feelings about him.

Bowling for Soup – Punk Rock 101 Lyrics 20 years ago
I always thought it was them taking the piss out of all the stereotypes of punk rock "my dickies, your sweat bands, my spiked hair, your new vans..." and the punk rock songs "don't forget to delay/on the very last word"

McFly – Silence is a Scary Sound Lyrics 20 years ago
anyone else see some similarities to Jimmy Eat World - The Middle? Mainly the rhythm of the verses.

Mis-teeq – Can't Get It Back Lyrics 20 years ago
I love this song, it's one of those real girl power, strong songs, she's caught him cheating and broken it off, he's trying to take her engagement ring back, and she's refusing, she's put everything into this relationship, she might as well get something out of it.

Eternal – Angel of Mine Lyrics 20 years ago
Eternal also sang a version of this song

John Mayer – St. Patrick's Day Lyrics 20 years ago
I just took it as the literal meaning, that he's with someone, and keeps saying he'll break up with her, but keeps putting it off, bur Sammid2413 brings up a valid point too, and I can see it from that angle too.

Wheatus – A Little Respect Lyrics 20 years ago
I dunno if I like this version better than the original, the vocals are so different that it's almost impossible for me to choose.

Wheatus – I'd Never Write A Song About You Lyrics 20 years ago
I always thought it was "til your boyfriend looks over"

hmm

but I love this song anyway, it's about a girl that flirts incessantly (ooh big word for this time at night), and he can't do anything but surrender to her, but then he meets this new girl, and she doesn't seem that important anymore...

Son Of Dork – sick Lyrics 20 years ago
what kind of weirdo comes on here just to piss people off?

Son Of Dork – Little Things Lyrics 20 years ago
Because he has nothing better to do with his pathetic little life than be up his own ass and believe that everything he listens to is God's Gift, and anything else should be hung/shot/disembowled etc?

Because he's never heard of variety and live and let live?

Because he's a pretentious wanker?

All of the above?

I would love to analyse that little brain of his.

Faith Hill – Fireflies Lyrics 20 years ago
No one's commented on this? What is wrong with you people?!

It's about the loss of youth and innocence "before you met me, I was a fairy princess", and just about being a kid and playing make-believe. I don't think there's any deep meaning behind it, but I love it.

McFly – She Falls Asleep, Pt. 2 Lyrics 20 years ago
This is a brilliant song, end of. Like everyone else said, it's about a girl committing suicide, and her being "asleep" is actually her being, well, dead.

I think that this is a great song, both lyrically and musically, and it really shows how they've grown (especially Tom, who wrote this one) since the happy go lucky vibe of the last album.

The Streets – Empty Cans Lyrics 20 years ago
I see that bit as a reflection of "It's Too Late" from the first album, but maybe that's just me.

I love the change in this song, it's the whole "what if" theory, exploring both pathways so to speak, and going back to face your fate, which may not always turn out negative.

The Streets – Weak Become Heroes Lyrics 20 years ago
The bit that really gets to me, personally is:

then the girl in the cafe' taps me on the shoulder
i realise 5yrs went by and i'm older
memories smoulder winters colder
but that same piano loops over and over and over
the road shines and the rain washes away
same chinese takeaway
selling shit in a tray
it's dark all round
i walk down
same sights same sounds
new beats though

It's a simple meaning, about time passing before your eyes, and you don't even notice until it hits you, and how it all stays generally the same "same chinese takeaway/selling shit in a tray" and "same sights, same sounds/new beats though"

Daniel Bedingfield – A Kiss Without Commitment Lyrics 20 years ago
I love this song, it's simple. The simile of the rose and her heart is gorgeous.
