| Los Campesinos! – A Heat Rash in the Shape of the Show Me State; or, Letters from Me to Charlotte Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I liked this song untill i really listened to the lyrics. Seems to just be about a couple that Gareth and this Charlotte girl dislike/are jealous of. How mean. | |

| Tunng – Woodcat Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
i think it is relating how someone can change in a relationship, therefore it breaks down. sort of like magic/ really sudden and unexplicable? obviously he's missing his lover, yet she's moved on. |

|
| Bright Eyes – Hot Knives Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
the wife for sure. i thiknk htis song is about the never ending battle between reality and the metaphysical. the wife became disenchanted with religion after her husbands death, and therefore sought respite in a new age psychic. kinda like the disenchantment of society, which is summed up in the line:"Oh, I’ve made love, yeah, I’ve been fucked, so what?" phew |
|
| Bright Eyes – Classic Cars Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| it IS about wyonna ryder. i read it somewhere that conor said it was. if you think about it, it all slots into place. deconstruct a bit more. geeze. | |
| Bright Eyes – Soul Singer in a Session Band Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
WHY HAS NOONE COMMENTED?? this song is amazing!! it was the first that struck me as i listened to cassdaga while drifting off to sleep. when i awoke the next moring, i had this song in my head (no bright eyes pun intended) not too sure what it's about, though. |

|
| Bright Eyes – Tourist Trap Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| its a bit plodding...anyone else dissapointed with his new ep? | |
| Bright Eyes – Smoke Without Fire Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i did not like this when i first heard it. my first impression was that conor was trying to win some sort of m ward sound-a-like competition... but, when you get over the shock of the maturity of his voice and songwriting which is now blatently evident in this song, you accept it. and it grows on you. lovely. |
|
| Bright Eyes – Reinvent the Wheel Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
elliott is a safe bet, yet the line "boys fashioned their emotions.." doesnt fit. i guess it could in an artistic sense...that his music influenced others to feel. it could also be about rosemarie gentile.... |
|
| Bright Eyes – Stray Dog Freedom Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
i like the simplicity of this song...the almost childish retelling contrasting with the harsh guitars and scratchy vocals.... god, i am quivering with excitement for cassadaga's release.... |
|
| Bright Eyes – Four Winds Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
its "cassadaga" not casa david. "cassadaga" is the name of the next record (*REJOICE!!!!*) this is my favourite song off the new ep, purely becaus eof the imagery and "mexican girl" lyrics. and its the only one off the ep making it onto the album |

| Augie March – One Crowded Hour Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Thisis such an ethereal song!! i dont really suppose it has anyhthing to do with actual conception or birth: it is simply the lament of lost love that didnt feel right. The lady is portrayed as being an elusive, mystical entity, something beyond his hopes of obtaining. Although he longed for her when he finally gained her affection, it didnt feel right: "And I know it's making you sick There's nothing there, it's like eating air It's like drinking gin with nothing else in That doesn't hold me together." This reading is reiterated by the 'bolt' metaphor: this bolt (emotional suture??) was meant to hold their relationship together, yet did not perform to his expectation : "glorified" (overrated??) He accepts that he is not what she is usually after :"Now I know you like your boys to take their medicine From the bowl with a silver spoon" (silver=wealth, complacency? sheltered?), and his conquering of her proved to be a false victory:"I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin" The images of lions represent impending doom, danger= he is constantly surrounded by the unexpected tendecies of this sporadic relationship. the allusion to silence giving birth is possibly to add to her mystical air, in that she is the extroverted daughter of an element. And, finally, the lyrics are wrong here. it is "adolescent loom" not doom. loom= device for creating something. six stringed instrument=guitar? he is professing his feelings to her by song?? wow. i have actually written all this crap!!! well, i hope it is actually cohesive. omg. i sound like im writing an english analytical essay. ew. |

|
| Augie March – Bottle Baby Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| this is such a haunting song. it has some sort of discourse of hard luck, out-on-the-streets, alcoholism which is complimented beautifully by the strangled vocals and sparse guitar. beautiful song. | |
| Mates of State – The Kissaway Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| this song is perfect in every way. the harmonies, the pitch, the candy-sweet keyboards, the pounding drum.....i nwas at wirk thinking about this sing for hours. it just soars around you head at the edges of you brain and nestles. it has a sort of city/gritty feel to the lyrics. could it be about city kids trying to get by? i have no idea.stunning song though. | |
| Duncan Sheik – Foreshadowing Lyrics | 18 years ago |

| Death Cab for Cutie – A Lack of Color Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| this is the first death cab song i ever heard and i now own their entire discography. need any more praise be bestowed upon this sparliking gem of a song? the simplicity and honest confronting lyrics swirl up in this glittering creation that simply overwhelms you. favourite song of all time. | |
| Sufjan Stevens – The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I believe this song has so many layers it is not possible to slice them all up and microscope examine them. The complexity of it all just soars over your head and all you can do is sit back in wonder and let the current of mr. stevens melody carry you away. there maybe some literal interpreation dealing with hcildhood memories and death but the invited reading of this song is plainly love and loss: best friend ran away, in a cold room by themself thinking over their past, a wasp signifying death...but then again its open to what ever translation fits most comfortably around your head. truely a work of aural art. i salute you, mr. stevens! (*stands up, checks that no-one is watching, and salutes*) | |
| Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Henry Lee (feat. PJ Harvey) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| wow! i first heard this song when i friend of mine played it at a party....the "la la la la la" part just haunted me for days before i figured out which song it was from the lyrics. theres something so eerie and waltz-like about it. the melody just wraps itself around your head and twists in hooks with the lyrics. a truely beautiful song. seriously. | |
