The Rolling Stones – You Can't Always Get What You Want Lyrics 20 years ago
I think it's funny there's this much discussion about what this song means. It's could scarcely be more straightforward.

WHAT YOU WANT AND WHAT YOU NEED AREN'T THE SAME THING

The Rolling Stones – Sympathy for the Devil Lyrics 20 years ago
The guy complaining about the production value of classic rock is a moron. Music isn't supposed to be precise like a physics equation. It's supposed to have heart and make you want to lose your mind and jump off a fucking bridge.

I think this song IS about how everyone has the devil in them. And there ain't nothin wrong with that.

The point is that "evil" has always been around and always will be. Just as every cop is a criminal and all the sinners saints.

If there was no evil in the world, we would be weak.

The Rolling Stones – She's A Rainbow Lyrics 20 years ago
I think this song is about a woman. I think the refrences to the sky and the earth are to compare her to the beauty found in nature. Not vice versa.

The Rolling Stones – Paint It Black Lyrics 20 years ago
Anyone who's been depressed knows what this song is about. Why he was depressed isn't especially important. The focus of the song is his depression.

The line about seeing the girls in their summer clothes is just to show depression alientates you from everyone else. Pretty girls in summer clothes represent happiness and light-hearted fun. Not what a depressed person wants to be involved in.

Foreigner – Cold As Ice Lyrics 20 years ago
I think this song is about a woman who decides she doesn't value the relationship as much as he does. Seems to be a recurring theme in music.........

cold....................as...........................ice......................you know that you are

Fleetwood Mac – Gold Dust Woman Lyrics 20 years ago
Is it over now?

Do you know how? to pick up the pieces and go home...

You can really only rely on what the artist says in this case. I would guess it's about a woman, but since the Stevie Nicks is the woman...I don't know. Maybe it is about drugs, who the FUCK knows.

damn man

"What a swift and precise kick in the gut."

That's about the best thing I've heard this month.

This song reminds me of Trigger Happy TV.

Eurythmics – Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) Lyrics 20 years ago
I don't think it's drugs. Just because YOU'RE high doesn't mean every song you listen to is about drugs. You may be right but I think this song is about how everyone has their own agenda.

Eurythmics – I've Tried Everything Lyrics 20 years ago
I think it's about loving someone who doesn't love you back. And that makes you feel like a loser now.

Eskobar – On A Train Lyrics 20 years ago
This song is about drugs. I say this because I've done drugs. The line: "and all entertainment fails" is what convinced me. It's insane.

Eric Clapton – Cocaine Lyrics 20 years ago
Anyone reading this who's deciding whether or not to do cocaine for the first time, all I can say is that drugs are bad m'kay.

Some people can experiment without fucking up their lives. Some people can't. It's really just a roll of the dice. Make your decision based on that truth alone. I'm wasted right now, so if none of that made sense, it's because of Mr. Jagermeister. Blame Mr. Jagermeister.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Dies Irae Lyrics 20 years ago
This song, to me, is about fucking bitches and getting high. But that's just my opinion.

Elton John – Rocket Man Lyrics 20 years ago
It's not about astronauts. All the refrences to "astronaut lingo" (if you will) are to create a parallel between the people who travel to space and himself. Listen to the song and I'm sure you'll see that makes sense.

It's called metaphor people. And I think it's going to be a long long time......And I think it's going to be a long long time......

Elton John – Bennie And The Jets Lyrics 20 years ago
To the person who said the Beastie Boys cover was better: HAHAHAHAHAHA. That's sort of sad. That cover was making fun of Elton. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, the Beastie Boys obviously liked the song or they wouldn't have put it on their best of album but listen to how he sings it, it's ridiculous.

And I think this song is about a magic penguin with a really good sense of smell that travels through time and kicks ass. HEE HEE! But I'm serious.

Don Henley – The Boys of Summer Lyrics 20 years ago
This song is about how Don Henley likes little boys in skimpy bathing suits on the beach. And then he gets sad when they're gone...

Just kidding. hehehe.

Even though the theories about this song being about the passing of youth are convincing, I disagree. I think this song is about a woman. He loved her, but she wanted to have fun. Then he looks back and feels sad because he's there for her when no one else is, but she still wanted the boys of summer.

"I thought I knew what love was,
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go"

"And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
after the boys of summer have gone "

The Cure – Pictures of You Lyrics 20 years ago
To the person who said they had sex with their ex all night while listening to this song: THANK YOU. That shit was hilarious. I laughed for 5 minutes after I read that.

And amen about the sluts saturnsongs. Everyone's a slut though, really. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Think about it.

The Cure – Plainsong Lyrics 20 years ago
Disintegration is the best album ever!

I think this song is about the beauty of life. Someone smiling as they're dying, to me, conveys that sentiment.

The Cure – Six Different Ways Lyrics 20 years ago
I think this song was about six different women he had relationships with. I like the other theories here because they're more interesting than mine, but my instinct tells me this song is about women.

Rules of Attraction was a good movie. I liked it. If you didn't like it, you may have been in the wrong frame of mind when you watched it. Some of the camera techniques were original and, i think, entertaining. And it has a message that everyone can relate to: he loves her, but she loves that guy over there, and life sucks ass. I like movies that keep it real like that.

Creedence Clearwater Revival – Proud Mary Lyrics 20 years ago
I think this song is about rollin' on riva. Literally. That theory about pot sounds pretty convincing, but I think CCR pretty much says what they mean, I think. And it is true that they were anti-drug. Whether that includes mary ja wahnerr i don't know.

Creedence Clearwater Revival – Fortunate Son Lyrics 20 years ago
Even though this song is about how not being a senator's son means you're off to get shot at, doesn't mean it can't be a patriotic song. I associate it with American patriotism.

America is fucked up. But I love being an American. And I sure as fuck ain't no senator's son.
