| Ben Folds Five – Brick Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| On Ben Folds Live, Folds explained: "People ask me what this song's about... I was asked about it a lot, and I didn't really wanna make a big hairy deal out of it, because I just wanted the song to speak for itself. But the song is about when I was in high school, me and my girlfriend had to get an abortion, and it was a very sad thing. And, I didn't really want to write this song from any kind of political standpoint, or make a statement. I just wanted to reflect what it feels like. So, anyone who's gone through that before, then you'll know what the song's about." (thanks, Matt - Conway, AR) | |
| Jedi Mind Tricks – Heavenly Divine Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I should think it's pretty obvious - the group embraces Muslim-influenced hip-hop, as Vinnie Paz is Muslim, and denounce Christianity. Also - MicrowaveSkank, this "scene" is that of epic/underground hip hop, it's not much like the usual hip-hop rap scene. I'm not into most rap, but I was astounded by some of the lyrics that this group and Non-Phixion have - it, along with my black-metal-loving boyfriend, brought me into this. Give it a chance, eh? |

| Scarling – Baby Dracula Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I am so tired ofpeople saying that Scarling. isn't ass good as Jack off Jill. If she wanted to still be playing i JAck off Jill, she would, and she would hire new band members. Obviously, if she's in a new band, it's a new sound. The people who criticize Scarling. the most are the same people who don't appreciate Jessicka's meaningful lyrics and melodic voice - they want something stereotypically dark or rebellious that they can cling toor add to their lists of proudly displayed bands they like. They want to stay in their stereotypical box, because it;s saf,e and if you admit you like something that sounds too "poppy", you're not as cool, or "goth" anymore. I think this song is a great example of how her writing has evolved, but it hasn't changed much. The juxtaposition of certain symbols has the same way of bringing about the feelings she desires to show. |
