Hilary Duff – Our Lips Are Sealed (The Go-Gos cover) Lyrics 19 years ago
ok i'd just like to point out that hilary duff did NOT write this song. it's an 80's CLASSIC by the Go Go's. And damn better the first time around. abstract dam, you blasphemer, don't post about what you know nothing about. it's disgusting.

Shakira – Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Asi) Lyrics 19 years ago
a) "blacker than ebony" is refering to his eyes
b) of course it sounds better in spanish, it's the original language it was written in but more importantly, the rhythm of spanish is so much more similar to arabic. it's a lot smoother, versus english which just doesnt flow at all.
c) the english lyrics are a JOKE. they tried way too hard to make it fit the beat, so the song just sounds trite...it's a shame that she couldn't just keep the spanish version but i admire that she wanted to make it more accessible to those fans that don't understand spanish. still, some things are better left alone...

personally, i think she's a much stronger singer in spanish hands down. i've been listening to her music almost as long as she's been recording and not only is her voice just that much richer in a language she's comfortable with, but the songs also have some depth!
the quality of her songs since the crossover album (at least the english ones) just doesnt compare. but hey, you do what you gotta do to make money.

Marilyn Manson – Suicide Is Painless (Mash cover) Lyrics 19 years ago
actually, the song is meant to be an allegory about the US during the vietnam war. The guy who wrote it directed it to the US, saying basically that if America withdrew its troops from Vietnam (suicide) it would be a painless defeat (besides the injury to American pride) because most people at the time were lobbying for an end to the war anyway

My Chemical Romance – The Jetset Life Is Gonna Kill You Lyrics 20 years ago
Ok I know this is kind of old news but it really bugs the shit out of me when people misinterpret languages -- Bella Muerte is so fucking Spanish. There's no damn way you could confuse that with French (which by the way would be "La Belle Mort"). Don't try to argue it, I'm Spanish so I would know. And by the way, it's called SPANISH ok? Not fucking Mexican. Mexico is a country, full of SPANISH-speaking Mexicans. By calling it Mexican you're stereotyping an entire race/ethnicity which is extremely offensive.
