| The Beatles – Maxwell's Silver Hammer Lyrics
| 20 years ago

|
Paul said: " 'Maxwell's Silver Hammer' is my analogy for when something goes wrong out of the blue, as it so often does, as I was beginning to find out at that time in my life. I wanted something symbolic of that, so to me it was some fictitious character called Maxwell with a silver hammer. I don't know why it was silver, it just sounded better than Maxwell's hammer. It was needed for scanning. We still use that expression now when something unexpected happens." |

| Vanessa Carlton – Where the Streets Have No Name (U2 cover) Lyrics
| 20 years ago
|
|
When I first heard this song, the place "where the streets have no name" reminded me of heaven. I still feel it is a connotation of the afterlife but it also could signify the abolition of war and poverty, given that U2 (especially Bono) have always strongly supported these goals. It's an excellent song, no matter what it means. |
