Modest Mouse – Styrofoam Boots/It's All Nice on Ice, Alright Lyrics 17 years ago
the imagery of a man floating upside down, feet on the surface of the water, just seems to me to be a mirror image of christ walking on water, as if to say that jesus and us are one and the same, no difference at all. except he's up there breathing air and looking out for himself, and we're down here, drowning.

Placebo – Bubblegun Lyrics 18 years ago
everytime i listen to this song i get an image come into my head of molko lying on a bed in daylight smacked off his nut with this playing in the background...i dont know why. it just reminds me of heroin. the references to slowness in the song echo that...as for the loaded gun, well...its all been said before me hasnt it...?

Martin Grech – Dali Lyrics 19 years ago
'bite the cables'...like mice gnaw cables, damaging electrical equipment. making them go haywire, malfunction.
dali...surrealist artist. mad pitcures, unreal landscapes...some would call him mad. malfunctioning.
strobed vision, crowded head, boxed appetite. 'im not insane'

everything adds up and points to the malfunction, the breakdown of things. hes clever, this boy.

maybe he thinks hes going mad - self delusion. maybe others think hes going mad - protesting. 'lock me away' could be a plea or a taunt. mocking.

whatever... awesome song.

Nine Inch Nails – And All That Could Have Been Lyrics 19 years ago
not all relationships are forever. sometimes life gets in the way. things you cant help, or change. despite this, it is still really hard to not feel guilty in some way, like 'why couldnt i change things?... if only i could see...'
'take this and run far away from me' - there are always times when the thought crosses your mind that it would be better if it had never happened at all... all the what-ifs and what-could-have-beens fill the air and cloud your vision. you end up blocking off the pain, and in doing so block out the one person that can help you.

you spend so much energy on holding on to what you have that you forget to appreciate it.... until its gone, and youre left with empty hands. and a trace of all that could have been.

Björk – All Is Full of Love Lyrics 20 years ago
i love this song. and the death cab for cutie version. but anyway. i reckon that the line after 'youre doors are shut' is in icelandic, which would make sense seeing as the death cab for cutie version says 'in any language' - can you see the connection? i dont speak icelandic, but im willing to bet that if that line that bjork sings isnt gibberish then it would translate to 'in any language'... proving her point majestically - that no matter who you are or what you think or what you look like or what language you speak, love is all around you, in everything you experience and see and hear.
well thats what i think anyway.
